agree @SteMerritt .... similar could be said for the men's game (Internationals) too?
86% possession and 64 shots to nil.
Does nothing for the credibility of the game.
You enjoyed watching a 20-0 win? I couldn’t watch England beat San Marino 10-0, it’s just embarrassing after a while and you feel sorry for them. 20-0 is a ridiculous scoreMrs Lounger and I thoroughly enjoyed the game. The standard of football played by England was good and the score was as a result of the players not sitting back and being satisfied at 2 or 3 nil. Granted, Latvia are not one of the leading exponents of the game and England will face far stiffer opposition as the competition develops.
To those blinkered opinions of the women's game, shame on you. Over 10,000 were at the game, played at Doncaster's Keepmoat stadium.
I’ll always remember Paul Cook signing to his players to go easy on us in that 7-0 win. I guess the England players wanted to go for a record or something but it doesn’t feel right.

Results like this are not good for the game. I remember about 20 years ago Australia thrashing American Samoa 31-0 in a World Cup qualifier. After that, they introduced Pre-qualifying rounds.
Agree that they should also do the same for the men's tournament too.
