ok, question

what sports do women and men compete directly against each other,
and mixed doubles doesn't count
Chess and Bridge.

Makes sense. Start the bloke with 8 in 29 and leave the bloke with 29 in 43 on the bench.

You have to laugh don't you.  He plays week in week out in the Premier League, but there are concerns about him starting against Lithuania.  Caution and safety first are attitudes which run through all of our national sporting teams

Women's golf is excellent. Once you get past the driving distance the rest of the game is essentially the same as the men. It is highly skilful and as a sport every bit as good as the men's game.

So are you saying that Women aren't good at driving?

Rooney hits the bar, could have had a hat-trick already.

Not watching the game but assume from the line up that England are playing a 4-4-2 with a diamond in midfield.  I think that's a decent formation for them going forward and I hope they stick with it going forward.

Lithuania are crap but apart from Sterling, England don't seem much better. Both sides seem determined to give the ball away as often as possible.
