Looks like it might have been a cracking game! Japan’s keeper is really something else - she made some incredible saves.

“Because writing is more than just filling a screen with words – it’s all these choices and conscious decisions, it’s killing your darlings, it’s coming back to the well and looking for the right words to bring an idea to life.”

And when will it realise it’s its?

It’s so frustrating not being able to watch the final 😖. Following the live score and just hoping Japan will prevail over the naughty kids!

A site called Fancode seems to be streaming it but probably needs a VPN?

2SER has trained generations of people in broadcasting and offers free access to people from all sorts of backgrounds, giving them experience in media and a voice they would never otherwise have. Community radio is so important. This is terrible news

we need more linguists because i don't want to have to explain to otherwise educated people that there's no such thing as a "biological pronoun"

Poor thing 😣

I was out of the room when Butrus went down, but it sounded a bit grim. I have to say, I really don’t enjoy watching North Korea play football. I hope Tallon-Henniker and Dale get on the field in the 2nd half as we could do with their pace, I think.

Turned the game on 6 minutes in and 😬

Saveska’s certainly had a bad run with injury and illness, poor thing. I’m also sorry that Kuilamu missed out - pretty sure she also missed going to the u17s AFC cup in 2024 due to an ACL injury 😣

It’s a pity we ended up with such a difficult pathway through the AFC cup as I think we would comfortably sit in the top 4 in terms of talent. But it is what it is. Quite a few of the players will still be eligible for the next cycle as others likely move to the senior squad, so that’s something.

And the actual time. How is it almost 9.30pm already?!?

I should have actually checked the KO time before asking that question 😆

Got a score prediction…?

NK also won the last 2 u17s World Cups (2024 & 2025) so the current u20s team likely comprises players from all of those WC-winning u20s and u17s squads... 😳

That means you’ve got exactly 4 months - less 5 days - to learn and perfect something you couldn’t do before and that’s going to blow Cassy’s socks off when you’re together again. Magician? Cordon Bleu vegan chef? Bonsai sensei?

A 'Dinosaur Smarties' Easter egg.

Erm, they're called palaeontologists, actually.
