Starts tomorrow. Live across the BBC and ITV. Cymru women’s first major international tournament but they’re in the Group of Death alongside France, the Netherlands and champions England who are also there. Cymru’s group games:

Saturday 5 July 5pm v Netherlands. BBC1
Wednesday 9 July 8pm v France, ITV
Sunday 13 July 8pm v England.

A plea - if you have no interest in the tournament and/or in women’s sport in general, that’s absolutely fine of course. Each to their own. But feel free to scroll on by this thread without feeling the need to tell us how little you’re interested, how rubbish the standard is or how we’re all only watching it for WOKE or something. Thanks.

Also stickied.

Come on Cymru.

Wales will do exceptionally well to get a point out of that lot, or to avoid a hiding in two of the games, but excellent just to be there for this.

Spain England France and God knows who else (Belgium?) for the semis.
 
Usually this tournament is mid July-August

The shift 2 weeks earlier will hurt, it can't compete (at the moment) with Wimbledon, Silverstone etc

Hopefully Wales can give one of those teams a bloody nose, we don't want to be the 'happy to be here' team
 
No idea where Portugal rank in world terms but on the evidence of that first half, Spain will take some beating.
 
I’ve been to a few of their games. It seems they’re still a fledgling outfit and not at the same level as some of their opponents but when they are confident they can be effective. It will a great experience for them and will show them what they need to do to be competitive. As always with Wales, the tournament has come just a little too late for them with their talismanic players and leaders just at the wrong end of their careers. Should be fun though.
 
It's a shame the Welsh media interest (from what I've seen anyway) has been so low.

the BBC article gives Wales less than 10% chance to make it out of the group
2% chance to finish first and 7% chance to finish second
Reasonable odds that England and Wales are both out before they even play each other

There was an hour long programme about the history of the Welsh Women’s team on BBC Wales on Thursday evening.

Plenty of coverage of a Welsh international rugby team that’s just lost an international match for the 18th consecutive time…
