Yes the best team did win but the Lioness’s have had a remarkable 15 months or so, becoming European Champions and reaching a first ever World Cup Final has to be applauded and the knock on effect for girls and women’s football in this country is going to be immense. I find many commentators on both men’s and women’s football intensely annoying from stating the bleeding obvious to bringing up just absolute drivel so I will leave it at that. What puts football into perspective was perfectly illustrated with the Spanish captain scoring a wonderful winning goal, then being told after becoming a world champion that her seriously ill father had past away a couple of days earlier back in Spain. Love and peace to her and the family.
