Earps has taken a proper kicking today, maybe the ref could give her a bit better protection?

Bugger. 

Oh dear.

Another quality finish. Let the ball run across her body and strike it with the left foot. Textbook.

As a neutral - more or less - I'm really enjoying this final. No messing about by anybody.

Neutral!?!? There are more Chelsea players in the England side!

I can't start supporting national teams on the basis of that!

If this game goes to strafen there will only be one gewinner.

You could decide which team to support in a one off final though? I’d assumed my charming personality would have swayed you, it’s a bit disrespectful that I’m still having to convince you.

I was eating a tub of pasta as opposed to a tub of ice cream when that went in. Please don’t tell me I have to switch!

Still time to f**k things up, so get the icecream! Pasta...what were you thinking.

Of course a Dutch coach will win the first trophy since 1966 for England 

gareth Southgate should take some notes

Dutch leadership 

Congratulations England! Totally deserved, a credit to the sport.

Against the Germans as well, always nice for the Dutch 

What an outstanding result, felt odd seeing an England team show balls (sorry), that last 10 minutes or so to see it out was incredibly good.

Does anyone know was England one of the favourites? Before the tournament started? 

Well done The Lionesses. Thought it was gonna go to penalties.

Brilliant achievement!

So proud of our Lionesses!

Nice one.

Thought with Popp the Germans would win and then she is out!

Germans were strangely off the game in the first yet we could not capitalise.

In the second for me Germany were better yet we scored a great goal and they equalised with an equally good goal.

I thought our subs in extra time just gave us a bit more.

First major trophy for the lionesses, nice one. 

the way they managed the last couple of minutes while they were 2-1 up was impressive 

they really prevented Germany from playing football in the last 5 or 6 minutes

Hecking f**k that was a touch emotional. 

Nice to see England finally win a football tournament in my lifetime. That being said I can't say it gave me much of a buzz despite following the women's team since about 2015.
