Also to say that considering the crap Jess Carter went through, she was a brick wall tonight.

I imagine Bronze will retire. I remember staying up to watch the 2015 World Cup and she was amazing then.
What a way to retire though.
England goalie. And that's how you dive Spain.
Well, I'm genuinely impressed that England have taken Spain to extra time. Possibly England's best performance of the tournament. But they'll need a slice of luck to see this through.
Well I never. Have England got back into the game?
I have no confidence whatsoever that we'll win penalties. We've pretty much used up our allocation of luck in this tournament.
Now - the question is: are Italy spent.
If I had a penny for every time an England player had a heavy touch in this match, I'd have at least 50p.
Italy managing this well. England creating the odd chance but - at the moment - just don't look like scoring.
I'm getting a bit shouty at the TV. England's passing is just not precise enough when needed.
Let's face it - England have looked laboured all tournament. They are talented but the intensity just isn't there.
Until the likes of Kelly come on...
The game's quite flat.
Neither side making any real incisive play.
My predictions suck at this - my in-game commentaries of what's going to happen is even worse.
So I forgive you for laughing at this:
England to beat Italy 2-1. Italy score first through a fast start. Italy tiring plus England super-subs mean England get over the line in the last 20 minutes...
Extra time. England. Oh bloody hell.
England increasing the pressure but, really, Sweden are quite comfortable.
We lost this game in the first 20 when we shuffled around like it was a training game with massive defensive liabilities.
It takes two goals for England to find some urgency.
Is this a new coaching technique?
All right, well we’re in the upper stand close to the halfway line for the Leagues Cup final, Nashville SC v Miami.
Messi is here. No matter what happens I’ll have seen him play.

Steve McLaren was the Wally with a Brolly after England’s disaster in failing to qualify for Euro 2008. Thus making umbrellas unusable for England coaches forevermore.

Andonovski ain’t it.
