How mediocre is women’s football?

Very mediocre, even at the ‘top’ level. The English women’s team played the Swedish women’s team in some competition or other yesterday, and after a 2-2 draw at the end of normal time, there was a penalty shoot-out, which the English women won. Out of 14 penalties taken, only five hit the back of the net. If you’re of a masochistic nature you’ll enjoy this (video, 5:02).

  1. Not a footy fan so I don’t know. But this illustrates the determination to applaud women no matter what https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14912627/Poet-Aaron-Barry-Vancouver-faked-woke.html Not as exotic as a Nigerian gender queer female I have a writer friend who submits scripts under a female nom de plume “to get past the researcher” who filters the materials before reaching editors/producers. He’s not the only one . This sort of Direct Discrimination is illegal in the UK , but what writer can afford to be shunned by those who are their paymasters.
