England Women v Norway in the Group Stage of the 2022 European Championships at the AMEX Stadium
The Lionesses take on the Grasshoppers at the home of the Seagulls.
Wow. Just wow. This was expected to be a tough match for England. It didn't work out like that. Norway looked threatening early on but the Lionesses held firm and went ahead when Georgie Stanway blasted home a penalty after Ellen White was felled in the box. It started a goal frenzy and by break it was 6-0. Six, sies, seks, sechs, sita, alta, exi, kuusi. I could have been 10 but Ellen White missed more than a couple of chances from Beth Mead crosses.
Norway started the second half better but were soon under pressure again and it finished 8-0. Eight, sekiz, ocho, acht, kahdeksan, thamania, otte, wyth. Beth Mead finished her hattrick and was one of five goal scorers. Stick that up your Ballon D'Or Ada Hegerberg. 😜
An incredible night, expected a tight game and instead we got a first half Euros record of 8 goals. 🎵 Sweet Caroline 🎵 is still echoing round the AMEX.
Scranometer registered a 7 for chips and curry outside. Too hot for hot drinks tonight.
POTM has to be Beth Mead who was unplayable.
Got loads of new badges and acquired a flag as a cape.
The lionesses are through to the next round. 😍 Hopefully back here at the AMEX.
See you tomorrow at Mile Oak 🌳
