The only thing I get slightly perplexed about is comparisons to the mens game - 1966 and all that.

No other sport does that does it

I think we look the better team so far but Spain look dangerous on the break

It's a funny game as I see it the opposite way

Poor from Bronze there. Left an enormous gap

Watching Bronze make that run you just felt she'd lose the ball and Spain would exploit her position. Good finish though.

That was bronze fault. No point blaming the other player because you didn't release in timr

She had more than enough chances to lay the ball off there.

Yes, lost ball and through a wobbler while Spain took advantage down her side

That was why Bronze is the 2nd best Barcelona right back on the pitch in this game.

When she got herself stupidly sent off and the following game we looked a lot better.

Frankly she's lucky to even be available. She should have got a 3 match ban but they gave her two, almost certainly due to the fact it'd be the final.

If she's lucky to be available we should take advantage of that luck, if it's tactical fine but when you're playing a technical team you need you're best technical player on the pitch.

Commentator saying that Spain having the ball all the time won't sap the players energy - idiotic comment

We're not in this at the moment. Spain could easily be 3 up. Admittedly this is the first game of the tournament I've watched but the Spanish players seem a level above England

Impressed by the quality of this game

I don't watch womens football that often but it definitely looks like the quality has improved in the last few years

Spain looking good on the ball!

The longer the half has gone on, the more it has happened. England have to be braver playing the ball out.

We've stopped playing the high press, when we were winning the ball back and creating chances. Need to get back to that, otherwise there is only one winner.

This is poor from England, but Spain have been very, very good.

James isn't our best technical player, far from it.

She can dribble by 3 players but she can also lose it loads as well. The current midfield is the best for a game like this but they are bypassing them far too much
