Alan_R Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I'm not a critic of woman's football. I try think of it on its own merits. I enjoy all football and have attended non league men's matches and thoroughly enjoyed. But wow, this match is doing nothing to dispell some of the notions about the woman's game. Some of it has been laughably bad in this first half hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboAndrew Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) Level is definitely improving at a faster rate in the past few years. Of course, if you look at the number of young guys who basically live to kick a ball when they are young compared to the number of women, it's a huge difference. And that comes through at every level still. I think by the next world cup you will see some genuinely great pass and move teams who are more physical. Some of the French play was great. The one area I don't see improving is goalkeeping. And that unfortunately for me is a huge area the game needs to address as calamitous keeping takes the shine off any game. Just think of Madrid Liverpool. This and defenders being better positionally and a bit more physical and I can see decent paying crowds. Would it be possible to have Hearts Ladies play straight after the men on a Saturday? Not everyone would stay, but paying fans would get a chance to cheer on our team and our team would get audiences they just wouldn't get otherwise.
