I would hope so, Frank!

I like to see England do well but as I'm planning to move to Norway in the next couple of years... :D
 
England have been so negative here, it's only a matter of time until Norway score if it keeps on like this.

Agreed Slink. We need to be a little more positive, we cannot hope to hang on if it carries on like this.
 
Dreadful from England so far, seems against any quality we go into our she'll.
 
Already losing count of how many long balls have been launched forward.
 
Any idea why Greenwood isn't starting?
 
The heat is already taking its toll. Both teams taking every opportunity to take water on board.
 
Sampson has preferred a more solid no thrills defender in Rafferty.

A typical England attitude towards a big tournament game (as with the u21s). Negative, worried about opposition. When are we going to learn you need to control possession at the top level, particularly in knockout games?
 
Really poor so far, barely got out of our own half with the ball.

That's poor for me, infact our whole set up is poor tonight. I watch very little women's football really but i was impressed with us against Colombia and how we attacked but this is like a completely different side. Norway look decent but we are helping them.

It does strike me as an English mentality towards big tournament games and trying to find a way to be the underdog.

Never they'll succumb to a narrow defeat and then harp on about how close they came, our ball retention is awful and we look so laboured when coming forward.
 
England have settled down a bit in the last five minutes. Not created too much yet though.
 
That free kick from Farah Williams just about sums up England in a nutshell.
 
This is garbage. Piss poor management from the off. The players look lost.
 
Good honest play from the Norwegian player there. Had she gone down I think the referee may well have given a penalty.
 
Lucy Bronze looks like a walking disaster at times, all of England attacks have come from Norwegian errors or hoof balls.
 
Goalless at half time. Hopefully England are a little more positive in the second half.
 
Really frustrating - when we attacked in the last 2 games, we looked dangerous but yet again we're bemoaning a negative attitude to the game.
