I only saw the last 20 odd mins after watching the bottom feeders game in the gong but I thought Ireland were really dominating field position in that late stage and the Matildas did well to hang on.
It was great to see the Kiwis start with a win - I caught a fair bit of that game. I watched the second half of the Matilda's win - it was pretty gripping stuff but they held on well.
Oh the vagaries of sport, from a moment of ecstasy to a 'noooooooo, I can't believe it'
Cracking first half between the Matildas and the Super Falcons. It looked like a perfect end to the half when Van Egmond slotted away her goal only for the Nigerians to equalise with the final kick of the half.
Hopefully more of the same to come, but with the Aussies winning in the end.
That's bad luck for the Matildas, still in it, just have to beat Canada.
Can anyone explain to me why the picture quality is like watching a sporting event on satellite from the 70s, it's so blury, is it done that way on purpose?
