birdman Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Hemp was brilliant dare I say a bit Jacky boy esque. So calm and assured on the ball. Brilliant from the Lionesses! Wonder if there are any plans to show the final at or around Villa Park on Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Excellent performance. Seems like they saved their best til now. 1 more big performance needed. Interested to know whether people still want Lauren James to come back into starting 11 for the final? Personally I'd only have her on the bench as an option if we need to change the game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 They've got better and better as the tournament progressed, with some luck along the way - it's like watching the Germans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great option from the bench for me. The girls out there today deserve to start the final. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 That's the difference between the mens and womens international side. Composure, when it's needed most. I'm not a great spectator of the female version, skill - wise it's not for me and maybe that's just my age. However, mentality- wise they are head and shoulders above the mens side, just ask Harry Kane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 The shirts don’t seem to weigh nearly as heavy on the women’s team and it shows in the performances. The stress levels you see on the men’s team in knockout football is through the roof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robby b Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 I think Hemp was WOTM (or POTM - player of the match). Quick, tenacious, very strong, good shooting accuracy. And for her assist that turn away from the player near the halfway line, then driving forward and laying off a perfect pass for Russo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
