England did well to get to the final considering who they were missing.

England will be bitterly disappointed. Didn't create any clear cut chances the whole game. They played as though they were the team winning, constantly lumping the ball forward into 50 50 contests where as spain were much more crisp in their ground game and they managed to play through England several times.

Spain were very unlucky to lose to them in the euros so this is a deserved triumph.

Yeah Spain far superior in skill, pace and control. Should have added a couple more.

Obviously delighted England lost but also because of their antics around Spain's penalty.
NEUTRAL

As far as I could see she asked for the ball to be moved back to the spot and the referee agreed with her and asked the spanish player to move it back so she was right to challenge the placement of the ball

The term 'Lionesses' was really starting to do my head in.
At least we won't hear it for a while after the next day or 2.

Was watching SKY news press preview last night, one of the red label rags had a lionesses cringe headline however one the journalists was complaining about the lack of diversity in the picture with all girls with blonde hair and blue eyes.  All of the panel moaning that none of the Royal family and Rishi Sunak travelled out and would have done so if the men was in the World cup final.

Hard luck to the Tans. Spain were very impressive. Neither team had won before. A very interesting tournament and inspirational for girls.
