Anybody been watching any of the women's World Cup? Have caught a few games, particularly the England ones. They're in the Last 16 against Norway tomorrow night at 10pm.

Been absolute class so far - some really great games. You can add USA to that list of possible winners as well, especially now Alex Morgan is almost fully fit.

Brazil v the Aussies should be a decent game tonight on the Red Button, and expecting big things of France now they've hopefully hit their form.

I went to the Cameroon - China game yesterday.

Not a bad game, I thought that Cameroon were the better team, but China had the better chances. Cameroon were chasing the game after conceding so early, with a bit more patience going forward they could've easily won the game.

There was about 5 foul throws in a row near the end there and not one of them was penalised.

The Norway players didn't even appeal. Do they not do foul throws in womens football? Can they just throw it how they like?

Heard one shout of "eyy Ref!" but nothing given. Seen a few throughout the tournament. Then again, no worse than some of the throws you see down at Brunton Park.

Hell of an effort from Bronze to win it.

All the games are on artificial pitches, quite controversial in the build-up. Been the only bad thing about the World Cup in my view - pitches are really inconsistent, too hot and causing the players problems.

What a goal that was from Lucy Bronze. Bring on Canada!

Been following some of the games and all the England one's, it's very similar to the men start the group poorly but do enough to get through then raise our expectations by winning the knock out game, now we will probably go out on pens against the home nation in the quarters just when it looks like we have an achievable rout to the final.

86th minute winner for Japan. Deserved winners, but nowhere near as good as they have been. Think you're probably right in that they 'should' have too much for England, should England make it past Canada tonight, but it'll be a good game.

Sloppy goalkeeping again. Bardsley spilled a similar effort in an earlier game. Could prove very costly. Great start though.

Also to add Mark Sampson has fielded all but one of the squad... That one being Telford gk, which is fairly astonishing! He's tactically very sound because it hasn't been to just give the girls a run out! He'a changed formations positions etc to match and beat the opposition! I've been very impressed with him! Better than Woy anyways!

Well done him for dropping Aluko as well... 13 goals in qualifying but offered nothing against Mexico & France and hasn't featured since! Would the mens side do the same with Rooney?

She was a class above. Tonight's game was by no means a classic in terms of attempts on goal, but I found it thoroughly enjoyable to watch a game where each and every one of the 22 players on the pitch were willing to do whatever it takes to get the win.

Well, I have just finished watching the Canada/England game and having watched 3 out of the 4 QF matches I have to say I have been very, very impressed. The skill afctor on show is much more inflential in these games than the mens game where athleticism is more prevelent. However maybe we shouldn't be constantly comparing the womens to the mens game and just watch it and enjoy it for what it is. I think its been great entertainemnt and a real tonic after a crap season.

yeah nowhere near as good as they were in the group stage but persistant and got the result. showed some flashes of real skill earlier on too.
england might actually give them a a game going on both the results tonight, will be a good game to watch methinks.

The goalkeeping position always seems to be the weakest in the women's game.

It has been a very well organised and entertaining tournament so far. Really enjoying the games and the sportswomanship. The men could learn from them.

England have already over achieved by why not go all the way now. Come on ladies!
