FIFA Women's World Cup

I'm not sure England have it in them to attack with abandon and get the equaliser. These Colombians are clever in possession but tough in defence

Good ball into the box for England but no one on the end of that.

No end product is the story of English World Cup football for decades

Lauren Hemp equalises after the Colombian keeper drops one. Was there a foul in there?

[sparky]

The Colombian keeper had a shocker there. 1-1.

England look stronger when they use the width of the massive Stadium Australia pitch.

[MiketheSnow]

Good equaliser

Evenly poised at the half

[canefan]

What a scrappy goal. England would be best served to drive down the wings and get early crosses in. Plays to their strengths and puts the Colombian backline under big pressure

[canefan]

England have to take control in midfield and impose themselves physically against the Colombian creative players. And they need to return fire against Guzman, who has been skating a thin line since coming on. She could be on a YC on another day

[canefan]

These Colombians are typically adept at the dark arts. Love a good grapple

[canefan]

England do not want to go a goal down for a second time. England need to play with speed. A chance coming here, FC just outside the box

[canefan]

Nice option on the FK, forced a big save from the Colombian goalkeeper

[canefan]

Nice goal by England. Go direct and the ball falls for Russo, who slots it cooly

Can see the Cartel losing their shit soon

They've got away with some pretty heavy contacts so far

[MiketheSnow]

Russo took a big hit in the act of scoring and yet she popped up like a 'Jack In The Box' to celebrate

In open play she would have stayed down after looking like she'd been hit by an 18-wheeler

The biggest problem with football

Seeing the ball in the back of the net, better than Nurofen....

[canefan]

Second QF and another goalkeeper substitution

[canefan]

Great shot and save. Careless turnover by Daly

[canefan]

Nice buildup by England there, but the last pass goes awry
