final

so i was proven wrong. germany won 6-2.

would you believe me if i tell you despite the score, england more than matched germany for 60 minutes?

tactically, they started as i had recommended. jill scott in midfield in place of a winger. tactically, they got it right. but you can't stop a 30metre shot. you can't prevent the individual errors.

it is a bitter defeat for england. they took the game to germany. i even dare say until the first 2 german goals, they were better than germany. and they did superbly to pull one back. game on.

den 1-3. 2-3. still fighting back. 2-4 on 62nd minute. 2-5 on 73rd minute. tts when it was really over. and england lost all shape.

england lost because the defence made so many individual errors. and germany are just so, so clinical. as they have been against norway and france.

i feel sorry for kelly smith. a great goal, a great assist. normally, that would have been enough.
