Very difficult match for England. They will be underdogs against a talented Spanish team.

Anyway, best wishes and good luck to the English ladies.

Constant cheating diving by the Spanish meant they deserved to lose.

I've enjoyed the Women's Euros this year, especially the knock-out stages with exciting Extra Times and penalty shootouts.

Back to back European Championships victories is pretty special and if it had been Scotland Women who had done it, we would have lapped it up for all it was worth so well done to England Women on their achievement.

As there was nothing else in TV yesterday I watched the whole game. 

Two good goals, could question the defending for the Spanish goal but a good cross and header, similar to the England goal. 

The penalties....... 🤣🤣🤣

Utterly pish, the last penalty apart. 

4 scored from 9 attempts, not one of the 4 hit the side netting, all at a great height for the goalies. 

Over 34,000 for the final, not exactly overwhelming.

Some numbers for any delusional people shouting about equality in financial terms for women's fitba. 

Women's euros generated 128 million in revenue and the men generated 2.5 billion. When they start generating equal amounts they'll get paid equal amounts.

Certainly can't argue this victory for England should reinforce the interest in women's football but it's interesting to note that attendances were approx 7,000 down on average last season at women's league games. 

Surprising TBH, maybe it's peaked although you'd think Sunday's win would see an increase, at least initially, this season.

It's not surprising given he fact the quality is akin to under 16 boys football.

Delusional doesn't cover this statement. 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, she's always had an inflated view of the women's game, she is also the worst pundit I've ever heard for talking in sporting clichés
