Spain looking very good against England so far. Fortunately no cutting edge yet. England need to get the ball and spend some time on it and slow down the pace, but also control it when they have it. It's bouncing a few yards off their feet every time it goes to an England player and there are too many long-balls right now. Gives the defence no respite.

England have a goal disallowed for offside and suddenly look brighter. Much more controlled, ball on the ground, and looking threatening in the Spanish area.

Spain ahead, at work so just seeing the text commentary, but Spain look like the dominant team by far

Good goal from England. Spain had been defending a bit too deep.

It's 2:1 extra time. Absolute blooter from Stanway.

England having some very panicky moments when Spain get forward. They're fine when they push up but there's definitely some of that kind of panic we've historically seen from the men's team when they're one up.

Really? It's on mainstream ESPN here. You'd get it with fairly basic cable.

Oooh! A player who doesn't have a blonde ponytail on for England. It's as if Megan Rapinoe dyed for nothing!

Just watched it - a good game.
And despite Andy's desperate attempt to find something to criticize about the England team I think they played really well against a lot of pressure from a very good Spanish team.
No panic - just resilient defending against an all out attack.

It's not a desperate attempt to find something to criticise. If you thought it was a flawless performance, or even that England looked likely to be winners after 30 minutes, you have a very unbalanced way of watching.
