THE BIRE

Wow. I was ready for disappointment. Video delivered.

Women's World Cup kicks off in a week. I have tickets to a bunch of games.

Pro tip: Don't sleep on the French team. They're smoking hot.

Went to watch England v Haiti. I think everyone expected it to rain goals with the current European Champions playing against a team that only just qualified last minute. However, the Haiti girls were well organised and could easily have nabbed a point or even a win with better finishing.

Will one of you Swedish fuckers come get your man Gustavsson before he completely destroys women's football in this country for the next decade? God he's a shit coach.

Was at that match. Korea played well, but the Germans just weren't up for it at all 

Auf Wiedersehen Germany.

Japan dominating Norway. Proper contenders Japan.

I'm so happy the Swedes managed to fuck over the US. Mainly because I dislike Rapinoe.

C'mon Nigeria.

Fuck.

At least Australia won.

Frenchies demolishing Morocco

Spanish women absolutely dominating the Dutch.

Honestly, my favourite part about women's football is getting annoyed at the poor quality of play on display.

Games have been great. Slower than the men's, but the quality has been good. The increase in professionalism and skill levels has been exponential compared to the last women's world cup.

Still on a massive high after the Australia v France game last night.

Penalties were in front of our end. Fucking amazing to be a part of that.

Rooting for Australia at this point. Hope the Swedes pull off a miracle in these last 2 minutes.
