England Ladies

[Raging_Bull]

Lost 3-2 to Belgium tonight after having 73% possession and 18 shots against Belgium's 5.

That take some doing losing a game with those stats, same as last week they were so wasteful in the final third.

Saw the first half and thought there was some interesting goal keeping going on from both teams. Horrific head injury for Greenwood as well. Amazed to see Mary Earps is even money favourite to be Sports Personality of The Year....

She was a key player in the team that reached the world cup final and habitually saves penalties at the highest level. Which British sportsperson has done more this year?

Not a fan of his but Frankie Dettori definitely comes under consideration and Stuart Broad after his heroics, whilst he will not win it for lots of reasons Tyson Fury is far more of a personality than Earps. I have tried finding her penalty saving record but failed so will take your word for her habitually saving penalties but she definitely made it easy for the Belgium striker with the second goal last night and i would also question her for the opening goal. Believe the winning goal was ironically a penalty as well..?

Have stopped watching the England ladies. The last 4 or 5 games have been like watching paint dry and they've been on a downwards spiral.

No keeper saves every penalty, and because she let in 3 goals yesterday because of the frailty of the defence it doesn't detract from her achievements in the rest of the year.

As you know being a Blackpool fan, it's not the second third fourth or tenth line if you want, that counts.......it's the top line 3-2..... currently 2-0 to the Cod's........people get too concerned about stats....when in reality only one matters.
