England is into the world cup semi-finals and no one cares

Makes me really sad. Just because it's women's football no one cares. This time last year when the men's team got into the semi-finals everyone went mental but because it's women this time round, no one cares. I don't care if you say it's because it's less entertaining or whatever because they don't play as well as the men's team. Personally I don't think that's true. Today we scored a goal in under 3 minutes and no one cares, most people won't even be aware of it. It's just so sad to me.

Why 'oh well'??? They played so well today! Did you even watch?
Because it's the lasses one rather than the proper one. Slower game, less prestigious.

Like Under 21s or 18s. No one cares about those either.

The Paralymics as well. Not really on anyone's radar.

But why. They are genuinely good. I know absolutely **** all about football, but the way the women's team played today was genuinely so much better and more energetic than the men's team EVER did last year.

It might look like they played well because they're playing against full-time Belarusian accountants and finance managers.

A lot of people don't really consider it as the "official" world cup, there is like no song for it or anything like that. It's more of a sub-world cup if you get what I mean as @Notoriety implies
It’s a great achievement but I’m not accustomed to the women’s game in whole I’m disillusioned with football as a whole £900,000 a week and wanting more....
I mean i dont care about it because i dont care about the male world cup either :flute:

Watch today's game. It was the best, fastest paced game I've ever watched. I don't watch much football, but I watched all of the games in last year's men's world cup, which says a lot.

Ask yourself why, when they play just as well as the men, if not better (which is what I saw today)

Second point negates the first

butthe way the women's team played today was genuinely so much better and more energetic than the men's team EVER did last year.


Yeah, no, it wasn't. It was a decent game, but let's not get carried away.
