why are france wearing this baby blue poo poo, the men's french combo of navy blue/white/blood red is probably the sickest colour combo in international football

Yeah, the French women have also traditionally worn the dark blue. Not a huge fan.

Jamaica is hanging in with France so far. I especially like the extra huge shirt tug to earn a yellow. Proper defending, that.

maybe the navy blue was too dark to contrast well against the Jamaican kits

Kadijah Shaw being out for the next game is real kick in the gut for Jamaica.

And now they need to hold on for 3 more minutes.

21 goals in 12 matches and 11 belong to Japan, USA, and Spain. Not much fun.

On one hand, yeah. But it also shows that female football is gaining traction around the world nowadays and tournaments are not about 4 or 6 good teams that are routing everyone else 12-0 .

I'll take the glass half full perspective in that really the only abject (scoreline) battering has been Japan - Zambia. With the new, lesser teams in the tournament I expected much worse. It could still get bad in group play as the elite teams get it together, but if the worst defeat is a 5-0 win by an experienced and tactically disciplined team that's won the World Cup before versus newcomers from one of the weakest regions for women's football, I think that's a decent sign overall

edit corrected the losing Z country, thanks!

It was Zambia, not Zimbabwe, but yeah - it's a team where the players haven't been paid by their own federation for two years and their coach is a sex pest being investigated for molesting his players.

Tasty matchup to start the day. Two solid teams that no one puts down as the favourites to get that far in the tournament.

Love having to :filez: a US stream for a game taking place 3km from my hotel because they don't carry Sky Sport.

(Wasn't sure if I could make it there on time, booked something where I'd have to leave early, otherwise would be in the stadium)

As a youth I prayed, "Give me chastity and continence, but not yet."
I got exhausted just watching that. So much more end-to-end play than the other games I've watched so far. Can't imagine how gassed they all were after 90 mins of that.

That's weird, I turned on the game and something actually happened while I was watching.

Also, what the poo poo?

E: drat that would've been an awesome counterattack goal for Morocco had she actually shot it/been onside
