> While TV viewing figures peaked at 17.4m in the run-up to the final, tickets sales for Women’s Super League games have soared and more women’s matches have been upgraded to bigger grounds, with Arsenal due to play all their home games at the Emirates Stadium next season.
This is great news too. Best of luck to England in the final today 🫶

Cool. Maybe if enough women start supporting them, buy their merchandise, attend games, etc, they’ll be able to justify their demands to be paid as much as the mens game instead of operating at a loss

I have never been into football, but watching a women’s footie game with the three women I lived with in our Uni house I laughed after noticing that I hadn’t seen a single dive while they scream in pain from a love tap. They just played the game.
Ironic.

Don’t watch it personally, but it’s good to see girls wanting to engage in sport and represent their country.

Great! Kids should want to emulate their heroes and for too long, there hasn’t been that for young girls/women who like football

Interestingly I heard on the radio that more adult women are starting to play football for the first time – all good as far as I’m concerned, the more kids *and* adults we get involved in exercise the better.

Now all that’s required is for other women’s sports to receive just as much attention, funding, promotion and publicity.
