        I mean, I imagine they would come home after the final anyway!

    2nd place in a competition of 30odd teams made up of the best players from each nation around the world.

    We didn’t lose, we came 2nd. We should be damn proud of those women and the entire team behind them.

    Absolutely gutted the Lionesses lost in the final, but upon reflection upon the entire tournament it is an absolutely massive achievement to finish as runners up. This will inspire a whole new generation of grassroots players and women’s football fans, and hopefully inspire England to push on, learn some lessons, and hopefully get back there again in the next tournament.

    If you enjoyed the tournament, check out the Women’s Super League (WSL) where a lot of these international players ply their trade domestically.

      Watched it with my son - he's an aspiring goalie on his primary schools mixed sex team and he was cheering her on. Fantastic saves there, one in particular had us cheering. They're a great team!

      It was a great game, they played really well right until the end. I was never really that interested in sport until he was but my wife always has been.
