Group BSo:
Germany 2010
Denmark 1873
Spain 1986
Finland 1685
This was supposed to be the breakout tournament for Spain, for the first time among the favorites. But two of their biggest stars, Jenni Hermoso and FIFA POTY Alexia Putellas will miss out because of injury. The Alexia injury is particularly harsh, as she tore her ACL two days before the start of the tournament. Still, Spain should have enough to beat Denmark to one of the two top spots in the group. The resurgent Germans should get the other.

I think you over estimate Germany and under estimate Spain. Spain are clear favourites and Denmark look more likely than Germany to come out of this group.Group B

Yeah I think these two are the likely candidates, I dont know what the Portuguese Women's program is like, but it seems to be far behind the men. DO they even have a Swiss Womens league?Group C:

Group D:I would say France and then take your guess for second. Iceland would be a nice story if they could do what the men did a few years back. You know how all Icelandic men names end in "son", all the women's names end in "dottir". It is true just look at the roster ( dont know how that Danish girl got on the team?)
France 2041
Italy 1904
Belgium 1812
Iceland 1856
France, with a backbone made up of players from the dominant Lyon and PSG teams, should be clear favorites here, and they are my overall favorites for the cup, even if they have always disappointed at the NT level. Italy looks like it might have an edge for second place, but some of the key players of this group are on the wrong side of 30, and there isn't too much new blood coming up through the ranks.
Still, Weaufx Gods be damned:
1. France
2. Italy
This is actually starting today, seems a bit out of the ordinary to start on Wednesday, but maybe it is because Wednesday is the new Friday in England. But those who wanted an international football tournament this summer, will be getting one. For those boycotting Qatar, this will be your WC. I dont know how I feel anymore about the whole winter Qatar thing anymore.Of course I'm boycotting Qatar! This has nothing to do with certain teams qualifying or not!
Only one game today, England v Austria, then one game tomorrow, N Ireland v Norway. I dont know anything about the Austrian Women, I assume England and Norway would be favourites from this group.First 10 minutes, it's been mostly Austria. But it's Ellen White with the first shot on goal, a tame header lands softly in the Austrian keeper arm.

Finland took a shock lead in the first minute, and everyone was ready with their "Spain will not be able to shale off the Alexia injury." But it didn't take long for the Rojas to establish their dominance and turn things around. Too bad for the Alexia injury, but it looks as if Spain will still be among the favorites for the final win.

About a week ago, the English Press seemed to have England winning this Euro Championship,Maybe they were right all along.
I think England should be favourite for this cup as host and having a good win record, but if they dont beat Norway, or at least a convincing draw, then forget it. I wont begrudge Austria and Norway dong whatever it take to get both of them through at Englands expense, even if they pass the ball around for 90 minutes without crossing half after Austria takes a 1-0 lead in the first minute.--- SBBSecho 3.06-Win32

After yesterdays game, England have to be huge favourites to win it all. In the top match of group B, Germany lead Spain 2-0 at the half, I just started to watch when the Horst Hrubesch female equivalent headed in the second goal around the 36min. Germany will want to win in order to avoid England in the next round .I dont know how it was in the 1st half, but Germany hanging on to the lead, so far, but Spain looks more likely to score.
Denmark beat Finland 1-0 earlier to keep their hopes alive.

Some Neueresque keeping by the German keeper, she looks the best keeper I have seen yet. Spain moved the ball around well enough, just no finish. I think this result means Germany have won the group and thus avoid Engerlund?
After yesterdays game, England have to be huge favourites to win it all. In the top match of group B, Germany lead Spain 2-0 at the half, I just started to watch when the Horst Hrubesch female equivalent headed in the second goal around the 36min. Germany will want to win in order to avoid England in the next round .I dont know how it was in the 1st half, but Germany hanging on to the lead, so far, but Spain looks more likely to score.
Denmark beat Finland 1-0 earlier to keep their hopes alive.

5-0 now. Italy's record of being the only team to concede 5 goals in a half didn't last long
Make that 6. England now equalling their highest ever Euro win.Fun Fact:
Highest defeat Norwegian WNT: 0-8 v England (2022)
Highest defeat English WNT: 0-8 v Norway (2000)
I don't assume there's any other case where two NT's record defeats are against one another?

Disapppointing result for Italy, but it keeps the azzurre still in the thick of the qualifying picture. Assuming France takes care of business against Belgium and Iceland, a win against Belgium will be enough for second place.
Iceland went ahead in the third minute. I caught most of the second half, Italy dominated possession, and created some good chances (including a post by Bonansea). But they also need to thank their lucky stars for two or three huge misses by the Icelandic girls. Vilhj|ilmsd||ttir was guilty of particularly bad one in the 88th minute, and couldn't contain her desperation.

Last round of group stages games and they are all being played at the same time, even though not necessary, since women dont cheat like men. All the teams that you think are going to go through, look like they will go through, except for maybe Austria, all they need is a draw vs either a very deflated group of kvinne or a riled up group after the big loss vs the lasses.
Spain and Denmark play tomorrow for second place in the group.
Neddies and Svergettes should qualify, unless one of them loses the next day and after that it s France and one other team going through, which might be Iceland if the Dames take it easy on the dotirs.

RMIt was a very dull grey kit,
Coming from the Sepp Blatter school of female kit design, with all that heat, I think they should wear something lighter, maybe a bikini like kit for games when it is this hot or maybe just wrapped in light silky scarves, you know cus of the heat, then during the water breaks, happening every 5 minutes, they could pour ice cod water over each others bodies and wipe down with the scarves. Not my ideas, just trying to incorporated what Sepp Blatter would have wanted.--- SBBSecho 3.06-Win32
Anyhow, Blatter wet dreams aside, Spain won with a late goal, I did not really watch much of the match, but Spain had 75% possession, made around 800 passes and won 1-0 with a 90th minute goal. THis means they will play England and if the English women are like the men, they will knock out the Lioneses, who will get nervous and screw themselves up as per English football design.
Should be straight forward today, Holland and Sweden to win, with the winner with the highest goal margin to avoid France, so I would think they will both want to run up the score. I think Portugal might have a chance to pull an upset, but not too likely.
Tomorrow Belgium v Italy to decide second place, unless they draw, then I think the dotirs of Iceland advances.

I suppose some may say Spain's style of play is boring and dull, lots of possession, but not much end product.

The match stats suggest France controlled the game with 200 more passes made, 68% possession and twice as many shots. Still, it is a shame that the dottirs of Icelandia go out without losing a game.

I would say this is more watchable than an MLS game not saying they would beat an mls team, cmon the worst mls team would beat the best team in this euro 45-0, but this game is more interesting,more intense.

into injury time?!, and it finishes 1-1!
Can anyone fill us in on the details?

Can anyone fill us in on the details?France scores three times. First time in first minute. Second
time around minute 60 but VAR logically canceled it due to an
offside. Third time around minute 89 with Grace Geyoro pushing
the ball inside the net. Checked by the VAR, the videos shows
that Geyoro, completely rolled and tackled to ground by her
opponent and hand on the body success to score but the referee
decide to cancel the goal because of an handball nobody saw
clearly but did not see any penalty...
During injuring time, a French player is thrown out to
advertising panels while jumping by an Icelandic player already yellow-carded but no foul...
And two minutes and half after the end of extra time, an
Icelandic player pushed Sarr to another Icelandic player and
make her fall. No doubt for the slut Adamkova, it is penalty...
The refeereing is a joke in this Euro. In first game versus
Italy, a clear red card legally given has been converted into
yellow with the VAR. Tonight, a clear foul on the Spanish
defender allows the equalizer and deny the qualification to
Spain.
All this is a joke. Make a game between England and Germany and
give the trophy to the winner, no need to give hope to other
teams.

So Germany is huge favourites, but I am thinking Austria will be up for it and defend the shit out of them, of course the minute Germany score, it will be all over.

Unfortunately, they only have three woodworks to show for their effort, and in the past few minutes it's Germany who looks to be much closer to a second goal.

Austria tries to build from the back, and Popp susccessfully blocks the Austrian goalie's attempted clearance and the ball slowly rolls into the back of the net.
Austria had given Germany a scare at the beginning of the second half, but eventually ran out of steam.
The only thing that annoys me is that we finally also conceded one of those stupid goals that are still too endemic in
women's football.

About those stupid goals...the lob from way out is definitely a deliberate tactic that more and more players are trying. It makes no sense with 1.90m male goalies, but certainly has a place in the game with 1.70m female goalies.
France dominated the Netherlands, but only managed a 1-0 win thanks to a penalty in extra-time. Now the Germans will get to play them with two days' rest, and 30 fewer minutes in their legs.
Semifinals:
England-Sweden
Germany-France
All the top seeds make it to the semis...this wouldn't have been a good SophCon for Aggie

Woof woof!
Actually, it's more like the end of an era. Sweden are the only survivor from back when
women's football still had a distinct advantage in the North, and it feels like it's only a matter
of time until they fall by the wayside like Norway did.
The future will be exactly like men's football, with the Big 5 dominating, just as in club football
where that's already long the case.
It's coming home, and the refs were helping.
The 2-0 was a blatant offside (line of vision).

Come on, on the men's side you can still get relative minnows like Croatia and Italy make a WC/Euro final, and maybe even win it if PKs go the right way
Well, no amount of Anti-Weauxfing will change the fact that Italy will always be Big 5 due to size of population.Have you looked at the latest numbers on Italy's total fertility rate? (Yes, it will take a while for the population to shrink relative to other European countries. But also, why has Italy been so poor in integrating its immigrant population in the NT, both men and women?)
But I realise I've been quite UEFA-centric (well, it is the Euro we were talking about). Canada are of course the other holdoutIn terms of population, Canada (38m) would be the 6th member of the Big 5. Not sure I understand why they've still been trotting out Christine Sinclair (unless she's just out to get to 200 international goals...)
from among those who had a head start in the development of women's football.

It seems a lot of people, mostly Spanish or at least Basque
are calling for a foul on the English goal. I didnt think
so, the ref wasnt calling that all game anyway, so at least
she was consistent. the Senoritas were the dirtier of the
two, always niggly fouling the old English Grandmas and she
let a lot of that go, so your conspiracy needs more juice for
that one.

Germany, deservedly, is the second finalist.
