On today’s pod: England fall at the final hurdle as they’re beaten 1-0 by a superior Spain in Sydney to see their hopes of a first-ever Women’s World Cup triumph dashed.

We take a deep dive into the major talking points, chances, decisions, starters, substitutions and super saves which saw the Lionesses come up short against a Spanish side which has defied the odds to reach new heights on it.

Plus, a chance to shine a light on some of the stars of the tournament and the overriding emotions as we bid farewell to a remarkable and groundbreaking tournament down under.

We’re going to take a short break - but we’ll be back for the start of the new WSL season which gets under way on the 1 October.
