Euro 2025 - Women

I’m not sure what to make of the refereeing in this game.

I could have sworn that I saw the ball fouling a French player and it wasn’t even shown a yellow.

It may even have been borderline red, but yellow would have been a fair decision ultimately, as the player who was clattered to the floor was up on her feet in next to no time to take the free kick.

The ball definitely got away with one there.
 
I said earlier in the thread that the standard has come on leaps and bounds, but this game tonight illustrates that there are still areas where they need to learn. One is do NOT dive in from behind against an attacker going nowhere in the penalty area. That was such a stupid penalty France gave away a few minutes ago. As usual, it was missed.
 
This game has got a horrible inevitability about it. Despite being down to ten players after 13 minutes, I think Germany are going to win on penalties. France will only have themselves to blame if so, they just haven't used the extra woman effectively.
 
The save by the German keeper is one of the best saves I have ever seen. She seemed to be able to move in mid air. Outstanding stuff.
 
Feel sorry for the French. Second best team in the tournament, but if you can’t put ten women away after going a goal up, them’s the breaks. At least it was a quality shoot out, at last. No comedy.
