Pretty soft penalty for Sweden but they've been early on top of the have anyway. Bit of very good goalkeeping keeping Australia in the game but their defence is just as shit as it was against England.
edit : game over

ITV advertising and plugging the hell out of their coverage of the final.
Shame really, just like 66, few will bother to watch. Everyone will be avoiding the ads by watching the BBC.

The Australia-England match was the most watched broadcast in Australian history, pretty incredible for the sport

@stephen_collins (Guardian cartoonist), did originally embed the tweet but it rather screwed up the flow.

Really looking forward to the Final and even a wee bit nervous.
I haven’t seen Spain play except for a horrendous back pass + own goal that made no difference to the end result.
It’s been a good tournament, despite the weird match times from a European perspective
Come on England!

I think Spain are being really underrated in a lot of the hype about England reaching the final. Totally understandable given how big this game is but it’d be a shame if they really turn up and control the game since casuals and cynics could walk away thinking Lionesses are shite rather than Spain are good.
I do think England are probably the favourites, just, but its going to be a real battle. I’m very excited for this.
And wild to think that through injury and rebellion both teams have lost so many of their most high profile players of the last few years.

Really hope they can do it. They're making their own history and it's exciting to see.

I'd be more confident if Mead and Williamson were fit but they've done brilliantly to get there. Also not seen much of Spain, keys hope we can do it.

Didn't expect dual language commentary from the BBC.

That Spain chance was a proper sitter. Don’t think you can really credit Earps with a save there.
