    Sweden were terrible against Belgium, but they still win

    They just failed to finish a bunch of great chances. This match should not have been close. Sweden should have won 5-0. Belgium never came close to scoring.
     
  6. Anybody got a clue what this means?

    It looks like it has to do with whether teams play a short passing game in the build up versus long passes. Does the web site this came from explain tings? Cruyff always said the ball moves faster than the player.

    Dutch are lucky not to be down by two goals at least.

    No doubt! I bet Roord comes on in the second half.

    That whole lineup and the tactics are a mess.

    Three of the best players are on the bench! The best or second best paid player with the highest transfer value - over 100k - sits on the bench (Damaris).

    The goalkeeper decision was a forced one (experts say SVV has been out of form for over 2 years)

    Too bad, she guessed the right corner but the PK was just too perfect :(

    she got a finger or two on that penalty it looked like. She’s been outstanding.

    Miedema nowhere fit enough to play...

    Parsons will be sacked this week I think. Without the GK injury they had already exited the group stage.

    I’m sure you’re right on both of these points.

    no idea where a goal comes from in these last fifteen minutes.

    "It is bad news for Dutch clubs and football players. Even before women's football has really picked up steam, there is already a threat of a role in the margins for the Eredivisie. That is also not good for the Dutch team, because young talents get much less resistance here than abroad. Especially when the best players leave."

    To be fair, the preparation time was quite short. England for example had a few weeks longer (and adjusted the club schedule accordingly).

    Parsons was dealt a bad hand. With a sub-par Martens and no RW play at all his offense was always going to be challenged. The FBs were horrible all tournament long. They were beaten in almost every match. van der Graagt was the best defender but I'm not sure if she is going to play on. She told Ajax she was finished and did not renew her contract. Maybe she changes her mind. Spitse is too old now. Even before the Covid hit her, Miedema was not very good.

    I think there are some good young players and of course van Domselaar who should be the GK for the next decade.
