COYGIG - Women’s Football World Cup 23 **Mod Warning in Post #58**

StrawbsM

Nigeria looking decent enough here.

AMKC

Oh no a penalty for England now against Nigeria. Seems harsh.

Jack Daw

I wonder does anyone in the England women's team appreciate the irony of a majority white team (I think 9 or 10 of the 11 players are white) taking a knee before the kick off for Black Lives Matter while Nigeria a team where all 11 players are black just get on with the game.

Jack Daw

Soft penalty awarded to England.

AMKC

No penalty. Awe that's good. Would have been harsh for a little unintentional push like that.

Jack Daw

Penalty reversed, correct decision.

AMKC

Not been a great game so far. Hopefully the second half will be better.

Cluedo Monopoly

Nigeria playing very well. I love the colour of their kit. We completed well against them so we are not far off the upper echelons of ladies football.

AMKC

What's up with the English Keeper? She has not had that much to do. Should not have a cramp. That's bad.

Doing well so far alright. If this goes to penalties do I see England winning. The Nigeruan keeper seems goid do. She made a great double save just there a few minutes ago.

I think Nigeria have had more chances on goal just not making the best of them.

Cluedo Monopoly

Nigeria are exciting to watch, I hope they win

StrawbsM

Even though I’m an England supporter, I think Nigeria deserve the win here. But I’m not gonna complain if they lose 😂

StrawbsM

That was dirty

AMKC

That should have been a Red Card for Lauren James.

StrawbsM

It’s gonna be a red.

Cluedo Monopoly

Red card all day long. Did not need VAR

Luxembourgo

What a moron. Incredibly stupid, let her team mates down

AMKC

I hope she gets a Red Card. Delighted for her. Only right. Utterly stupid what she done.

Come on Nigeria.

AMKC

Ref blew that up early OK only 3seconds but still.

I really hope Nigeria can win this in Extra time.

Jack Daw

Pure idiocy from Lauren James, although you'd almost sense something like that was bound to happen for her after the british media turned her into the new golden girl.

Nigeria have to go all out for the win in extra time now, no point leaving it to penalties.

Cluedo Monopoly

The Nigerians look very naturally fit. Great skills too.

I was just looking her up there. She is only 22.

Only scored 4 goals ever and only 14 appearances.

Did she score all them 4 goals in the World Cup? She needs to learn to control her aggression or she will quickly fall from the top stop down.

England have been very poor, the hype after the China match was bonkers given how absolutely awful they were in first two group games

naughtyboy

This game shows what a good job pauw did as manager, to not renew her contract is a very stupid decision

ednwireland

Quality in the box from both sides is so poor.

AMKC

Nigeria have 15 minutes left to win this.

Cluedo Monopoly

Yeah I think England will win on penalties. Nigeria need to score in extra time. They should be trying to get more action in the box.

AMKC

Penalties it is so. I wonder will this go on as long as yesterday's or as good. We shall see. Feeling Nigeria missed a big opportunity. Should have won the game with the extra player on the pitch.

Cluedo Monopoly

Nigerian keeper is huge.

AMKC

So first up English player against Nigerian Keeper.

It's a miss yes.
