Don't want to jinx England just yet but very much looking like a good night for Brits

Scotland draw matched at 1000. Who in their right mind would lay that in a womens' match with 20 minutes to go?

Heartbreaking for Scotland!
Im my post above I said I didn't want to jinx England who were 1-0 up at the time, never thought Scotland would throw 3 goals away in last 20mins.

That would appear to be wise words. Gutting, even though I had nothing riding on it. I'm a bit speechless and destroyed.

I wasn't watching but it looks like another bullshit VAR penalty decision. VAR is going to kill the game if they carry on like this.

That was rough but I think VAR will win everyone over eventually, despite the rocky start it's having. Needs a lot of polishing.

That USA goal epitomises my issue with VAR. The USA player was clearly offside and clearly infuencing the players around her.
So experienced people have had 2 chances to reach the right decision.
So why didn't they?
VAR is like the word of God, it must be so if VAR says so.
It's complete horlicks.

Absolutely disgusted to see BF taking bets on USA v Sweden after the final whistle.

Brilliant at Liverpool with Gerrard, been watching few clips on twitter just now - the goal against Blackburn and him skinning Vidic at Old Trafford :D

Agree Torres was top quality at Liverpool then flopped at Chelsea.
I'm not gloating about that even though I was gutted when he left.
But the quality of the guy showed in 'that goal' for Chelsea v Barca, I was delighted for him that night.

Anybody trade the England U21 match tonight? I'm not sure if Peter has any records to show this happening before, but I can't remember ever seeing a match that was 0-0 after 75 mins, end up with 6 goals after 90 mins

I could probably calculate the chance, it wouldn't be very high.
