:01:21. > :01:26.Swedish football. Handball is the decision. She's saved two penalties.

:01:26. > :01:30.What a game! We usually end a tournament with penalty drama. Last

:01:30. > :01:40.night we began with some. Tonight we'll see the team who've won two

:01:40. > :01:48.

:01:48. > :01:58.world cups and an incredible seven COMMENTATOR: they are quite simply

:01:58. > :02:13.

:02:13. > :02:19.Germany, once again are the queens What a spectacular strike! More

:02:19. > :02:23.European glory for the all-conquering Germany team.

:02:23. > :02:27.And Germany begin their bid for an eighth European title against the

:02:27. > :02:29.Netherlands tonight. We're delighted to have a player who won the

:02:30. > :02:35.tournament four times. She's won the World Cup twice as well. She's with

:02:35. > :02:41.us in the studio. Martina Hingis, welcome to you. We also have Sue

:02:41. > :02:46.Smith, a regular in our line up. For goodness sake, what is the German

:02:46. > :02:50.secret behind winning all these turnaments? I can't tell you before

:02:50. > :02:55.the tournament started, I can tell you the end of it, to know we are

:02:55. > :02:59.going to win it again. I think it's unbelievable stroke we just made.

:02:59. > :03:04.Germany, we always want to compete, play like the best, of course,

:03:04. > :03:07.sometimes, you have a little bit of luck, that helps as well. We have a

:03:07. > :03:12.great development programme. We have a lot of good players. We have a

:03:12. > :03:15.great team. Yeah, it's just, I don't know, we made it. What goes into the

:03:16. > :03:20.development? The fact that all the Germany internationals are fulltime

:03:20. > :03:25.and the fact that they don't have to worry about going to jobs and the

:03:25. > :03:29.fact that the German association cares so much, what is it? The good

:03:29. > :03:32.thing in Germany is we had a lot of time to develop. It just didn't

:03:32. > :03:37.happen from one day to another. It took some time as well. We are a

:03:37. > :03:41.little bit advanced compared to other nations in Europe. Yeah, it's

:03:41. > :03:45.lots small puzzles. Sponsorship is getting better. With the good

:03:45. > :03:50.results with the national team we had more sponsorship. The FA is

:03:50. > :03:56.really supporting us a lot. We have a good president who pushed women's

:03:56. > :03:59.football forward. Even the World Cup really helped. A lot of small bits

:03:59. > :04:02.and piece that's build up to a successful thing. Was a major shock

:04:02. > :04:07.in 2011 when you went out in the quarter finals and didn't qualify

:04:07. > :04:11.for the Olympics. What effect, if any, did that have on the side?

:04:11. > :04:15.There was really shock for the whole nation. Like, no-one could believe

:04:15. > :04:20.it. It's not as if you could say oh, we always going to win. But still

:04:20. > :04:24.no-one really expected it. Thank God the damage for the women's football

:04:24. > :04:29.wasn't that bad. Still we have really good support. The numbers

:04:29. > :04:35.rain creasing. We still -- numbers are still increasing. What about

:04:35. > :04:39.Holland, they're your tip as the dark horse, why? I just like the way

:04:39. > :04:43.Holland play. I know in 2009 they started off very defensive. They

:04:43. > :04:46.wanted to just defend, defend and hit on the counterattack. Now they

:04:46. > :04:50.like playing football. They like to keep the ball and like passing and

:04:50. > :04:56.moving. I actually quite like that. I'm hoping, sorry about this, I'm

:04:56. > :05:03.hoping that they can get a result tonight. We shall see. Earlier on in

:05:03. > :05:13.Group B saw the 1987 and 1993 European champions, Norway, take on

:05:13. > :05:26.

:05:26. > :05:36.Here's a chance and there is the Here's a chance and there is the

:05:36. > :05:41.

:05:41. > :05:46.all-important first goal. Poor defending from Iceland, who never

:05:46. > :05:53.dealt with the long ball forward from the goalkeeper. She did well to

:05:53. > :06:03.win the initial header before coming wup a brave finish.

:06:03. > :06:14.

:06:14. > :06:22.Fine link-up play again. This time Hegeland with the assist and Heather

:06:23. > :06:32.Burke took the chance early. He must be happy with what he's seen

:06:33. > :06:46.

:06:46. > :06:52.a fine move from Iceland. That will give them some hope in the early

:06:52. > :07:02.stages of the second half. That's a harsh decision. Dotti was level

:07:02. > :07:02.

:07:02. > :07:53.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:07:53. > :08:01.That's a good save. It's smothered It was a good ball into the area.

:08:02. > :08:05.It was a good ball into the area. The shot is shovelled away. The

:08:05. > :08:10.fullback here, a run forward completely unchecked and maybe that

:08:10. > :08:20.was the clear-cut chance for Iceland.

:08:20. > :08:31.

:08:31. > :08:41.The player, who has recently come relax against an Icelandic team who

:08:41. > :08:44.

:08:45. > :08:54.are very much on top now. A wonderful challenge to deny her.

:08:55. > :09:02.

:09:02. > :09:12.It was a sloppy play again from She's gone down and it's a penalty!

:09:12. > :09:27.

:09:27. > :09:37.And they're level! Iceland are now written in on their first ever point

:09:37. > :09:46.

:09:46. > :09:56.Norway with a final opportunity and it was almost an own goal, in the

:09:56. > :10:03.

:10:03. > :10:08.closing seconds. A dangerous ball behind and that's it.

:10:08. > :10:14.Iceland r land with celebrate their first -- Iceland can celebrate their

:10:14. > :10:18.first ever point at a major championships. So historic result

:10:18. > :10:22.for Iceland, after they had lost all of their group games four years ago

:10:22. > :10:26.on their debut in the European finals, their first ever point in a

:10:26. > :10:29.finals, their first ever point in a major tournament.

:10:29. > :10:34.What a debatable penalty for the equaliser, not for you? Did you see

:10:34. > :10:38.it as a controversial decision or was it a clear one? For me, clear

:10:38. > :10:44.well. She did well. Going in, push the ball forward. Poor defending in

:10:44. > :10:47.my opinion, put the body in. No doubt about the penalty. I agree. It

:10:47. > :10:51.was a definite penalty. Norway haven't come into this tournament

:10:51. > :10:55.with form. It wasn't too much of a surprise. What a fantastic run here.

:10:55. > :11:00.She drives at the defenders and makes the defender do something.

:11:00. > :11:05.Without a doubt we both said definitely penalty. Then finish it's

:11:05. > :11:08.off with ease. This is a pressure penalty. It's 80-odds minutes and

:11:08. > :11:12.it's probably one of the most important penalties she's taken.

:11:12. > :11:15.They hadn't actually got a point in the tournament or in a tournament

:11:16. > :11:22.before. It was a massive penalty first. She did really well, kept her

:11:22. > :11:26.cool. Iceland, massive underdogs, just 320,000 people in their country

:11:26. > :11:30.compared to the five million Norway. Sweden were up and running last

:11:30. > :11:35.night though the performance didn't live up to expectations with Denmark

:11:35. > :11:39.taking a deserved point in a 1-1 draw. Our correspondent was at the

:11:39. > :11:49.game and she's been gauging reactionment

:11:49. > :12:20.

:12:20. > :12:26.Sweden! Sweden! I think Denmark have Denmark take the lead. Sweden

:12:26. > :12:34.Denmark take the lead. Sweden equaliser. Oh, it's a penalty.

:12:34. > :12:44.equaliser. Oh, it's a penalty. Blocked. Handball. Penalty. What an

:12:44. > :12:46.

:12:46. > :12:50.exciting night of football. Now is a Swedish journalist. Two missed

:12:50. > :12:56.penalties, it's bad. COMMENTATOR: saved brilliantly.

:12:56. > :13:06.She's save twoed penalties. What's worse is the look in the player's

:13:06. > :13:12.

:13:12. > :13:16.eyes when taking the penalties, they missed. The pressure was too big.

:13:16. > :13:19.They didn't cope with. It it's not the end of the world. Sweden is

:13:19. > :13:25.still -- has still good ability to win the group and go through to the

:13:25. > :13:31.quarter finals. And anything can happen there. What's important in

:13:31. > :13:36.the next days is how will they deal with the pressure. Very much. We

:13:36. > :13:46.thought the UK press was bad. Catastrophe, it sounds like this

:13:46. > :13:50.

:13:50. > :13:53.team has some work to do. decided to move up and go second.

:13:53. > :13:57.What would you have done in the dressing room afterwards? I don't

:13:57. > :14:00.know. There's going to be a bit of friction between the team. If she's

:14:00. > :14:04.only the third penalty taker, I don't know. I think the difference

:14:04. > :14:08.between in the men's game and the women's, I suppose a male footballer

:14:08. > :14:13.would turn around and have a go at them on the spot. In the women's

:14:13. > :14:18.game, they would probably talk and it would stay within the camp for a

:14:18. > :14:24.while. They need to get it out in the open and... We're talking about

:14:24. > :14:30.Sweden. I have been playing in Sweden. It's a real really horm

:14:30. > :14:34.nighed country. -- harmonised country. She had good actions in the

:14:34. > :14:37.game and felt good and you will be named second, third whatever to

:14:37. > :14:41.shoot. You take the ball, if she would have scored we wouldn't be

:14:41. > :14:44.discussing it here. I'd love to know what went on afterwards. We've seen

:14:44. > :14:46.the hosts in action. We're about to watch the favourites tonight and

:14:46. > :14:56.watch the favourites tonight and watch the favourites tonight and

:14:56. > :15:05.

:15:05. > :15:15.it right at the end! It is Kelly Smith! She couldn't score again,

:15:15. > :15:16.

:15:16. > :15:26.could she quest Mac yes, she could! That is a brilliant goal! Going

:15:26. > :15:35.

:15:35. > :15:39.through to the quarter-finals of the are for the next 24 hours and don't

:15:39. > :15:44.change the channel, we will pop up again with England versus Spain

:15:44. > :15:52.right here on BBC Three. A 7:30pm kick-off and all the build-up from

:15:52. > :16:00.7pm. From a German point of view, be honest now, how do you not view the

:16:00. > :16:06.England team quest Mac we have real respect for the England team.

:16:06. > :16:14.going to be a really big challenge for us and you play really similar

:16:14. > :16:20.style to the German style. We always said we really want to win against

:16:20. > :16:28.you but it has always been really big fighting each other. And I am

:16:28. > :16:32.too scared! The coaches doing a really good job and I have to say,

:16:32. > :16:42.England is one of my favourites for the tournament to win as well. But

:16:42. > :16:43.

:16:43. > :16:47.of course they are not going to beat the Germans! Well, we will be

:16:47. > :16:50.traversing the southern section of Sweden to bring the colours and

:16:50. > :17:00.character of the team and she has been to meet one of Ariane's

:17:00. > :17:08.

:17:08. > :17:18.player interview here in Sweden and it is a big one. Nadine Angerer,

:17:18. > :17:40.

:17:40. > :17:45.captain for defending champions captain now and I've learned a lot

:17:45. > :17:54.from the previous captain so I've tried to continue her good job.

:17:54. > :17:58.does it take to be a good captain quest Mac what skills does it need?

:17:58. > :18:08.I think I'm not a very strict captain. You need to talk with your

:18:08. > :18:08.

:18:08. > :18:18.young players. I think they can trust me and have support. Who other

:18:18. > :18:22.

:18:22. > :18:28.key players for and why? So many of them. Lena Goessling, Lena Lotzen.

:18:28. > :18:32.Nobody knows them but they are so good. How important is it to win

:18:32. > :18:40.that opening match quest Mac it is so important because we have two

:18:40. > :18:45.keep the team more relaxed. So to win the opening game, it is very

:18:45. > :18:55.important. When you are in the dressing room before that opening

:18:55. > :19:00.

:19:00. > :19:05.game, what will you say to your team quest Mac --? Every game, it is not

:19:05. > :19:10.only the captain saying something to the team, every player has to say

:19:10. > :19:15.something. But if you had to say something, what would you say?

:19:15. > :19:21.very emotional and I can be loud as well. But I don't have a plan in my

:19:21. > :19:28.head what I'm going to say. Music wise, what do the German team listen

:19:28. > :19:34.to before a game in the dressing room? I was the captain DJ but

:19:34. > :19:42.nobody liked my music! So the kids do the music now. What type of music

:19:42. > :19:52.would you play? I don't know, the team listened to the mainstream

:19:52. > :19:52.

:19:52. > :19:57.music. I don't know the music they are listening to.

:19:57. > :20:02.So, she is a fantastic German goalkeeper but, frankly, it must be

:20:03. > :20:11.nice for her when she has strikers who scored 17 goals in 17 games

:20:11. > :20:14.qualifying as they have done. Just how good is their striker?

:20:14. > :20:22.numbers speak for themselves but it is not just one player, the whole

:20:22. > :20:28.team is good. She could have already had a few more caps but now she is

:20:28. > :20:33.healthy and fit and has had the season of her life. I hope she can

:20:33. > :20:36.really continue in this group Championship now. You have six

:20:36. > :20:41.first-team players out injured and yet you are still the favourites to

:20:41. > :20:45.win this tournament, Germany. Just how good are the replacements?

:20:45. > :20:48.all comes back to the really good development programme. The youth

:20:48. > :20:53.play really excellently. They know the system they are going to be

:20:53. > :20:58.playing and they know the structure because the whole team is coming on

:20:58. > :21:03.the under 16, the under 20, they all play the same system. So it is all

:21:03. > :21:05.getting adapted to the same system. They are so young and everybody

:21:06. > :21:11.helps each other. The Dean is a really great captain and she knows

:21:11. > :21:17.how to pump up the team and bring some fun and joy into the squad.

:21:17. > :21:20.Nadine Angerer. Four years ago, Holland reached their first

:21:20. > :21:27.semifinals in their first major tournament and their star striker

:21:27. > :21:32.says they have changed their approach this time. Well, we have

:21:32. > :21:37.the experience from four years ago and many girls are still here, four

:21:37. > :21:41.years older. A lot of experience from the last year, so, you know, we

:21:41. > :21:48.are really 18, and that is the most important thing. We have no stars,

:21:48. > :21:53.we are a team. Four years ago I think we were defending the whole

:21:53. > :21:57.time in our technique. It was good for us because we couldn't be better

:21:57. > :22:06.but now we have grown and we have a new coach and a new technique. We

:22:06. > :22:09.want to dominate more. So I see it as a positive thing right now.

:22:09. > :22:14.played against them in that semi-final and I seem to remember

:22:14. > :22:20.they came along and parked a giant orange bus right on their goal-line

:22:20. > :22:24.-- your goal-line! Did they get a ticket? Well, they just offended, so

:22:24. > :22:28.as a white player, we really broke them down and it took until extra

:22:28. > :22:31.time for us to break them down, so they were really offensive. Now they

:22:32. > :22:37.are trying to be a bit more expressing themselves and passing

:22:37. > :22:40.the moves in, and that is something they need to do against Germany. I

:22:40. > :22:47.think they have changed their style of play, which is nice and good to

:22:47. > :22:56.watch, and that is why they are my dark horse. Well, let's see if you

:22:56. > :23:06.are right to tip them as your. Course! We have been over to see if

:23:06. > :23:07.

:23:07. > :23:12.they can keep a clean sheet against Germany failed to score in a major

:23:12. > :23:20.tournament previously but now they have that huge challenge here

:23:20. > :23:25.tonight. Almost time, then, for the recent invincible is of the

:23:25. > :23:30.championships to enter the stage. All eyes on the holders, the

:23:30. > :23:40.favourites, and the highest ranked team in the competition once again.

:23:40. > :23:45.They will carry all the expectation. And it is Holland. The first team to

:23:45. > :23:52.try and upset the German odds. Still a well oiled machine. Nine remain

:23:52. > :23:58.from four years ago when they beat England in Finland in the final. The

:23:58. > :24:03.atmosphere that greets them as well, whenever Germany are in town,

:24:03. > :24:13.it always heightens the interest. As we pause now for the national

:24:13. > :24:13.

:24:13. > :26:31.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:26:31. > :26:36.defence of their trophy, and as far as the Dutch are concerned, the

:26:36. > :26:40.hardest possible opening game for them. As they look to continue the

:26:40. > :26:45.progress they made four years ago in just their second ever tournament.

:26:45. > :26:49.Germany, of course, come into it missing six players through illness

:26:49. > :26:57.or injury who would have started tonight, so the next generation get

:26:57. > :27:06.their opportunity. Four of the 11 have caps. All eyes, as mentioned,

:27:06. > :27:14.on Celia da Mbabi. Italy, of course, opened the tournament last

:27:14. > :27:24.night and their referee represented this lady, who officiate this

:27:24. > :27:26.

:27:26. > :27:36.evening. Plenty watching on. And interesting to see if there is any

:27:36. > :27:43.

:27:43. > :27:49.kind of upset in the second match in well. The Netherlands have lost a

:27:49. > :27:59.couple of players in the week in the lead up to the tournament as well.

:27:59. > :28:09.Seven of that 11 have 70 caps or more and their all-time top scorer,

:28:09. > :28:34.

:28:34. > :28:42.man on me less, -- Manon Melis. And -- Silvia Neid has been here

:28:42. > :28:49.before. This is where the defence begins. And their coach was

:28:49. > :28:58.appointed in November 2010 for the Dutch. And the man trying to lead

:28:58. > :29:03.the Netherlands to an upset. Perfect setting. Germany's defence of the

:29:03. > :29:10.title under way against the Netherlands, who are ranked 12

:29:10. > :29:18.places below them in the current world rankings. Is there any hint or

:29:18. > :29:22.possible upset -- of a possible upset tonight? Well, it will

:29:22. > :29:25.certainly be hard for the Netherlands but Germany are so

:29:25. > :29:28.strong. Other teams in the tournament this year will believe

:29:28. > :29:38.with so many players injured there is a chance, certainly for the likes

:29:38. > :29:46.

:29:46. > :29:49.of those coming out of the Swedish have a lot of possession. When they

:29:49. > :29:59.have a lot of possession. When they have a lot of possession. When they

:29:59. > :30:15.

:30:15. > :30:25.The Netherlands will be looking to get some comfortable toucheds on the

:30:25. > :30:25.

:30:25. > :31:14.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:31:14. > :31:24.Maier is one of the new, young obviously confident enough to feel

:31:24. > :31:24.

:31:24. > :32:47.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:32:47. > :32:57.she can get started in her first the team. But the partnership will

:32:57. > :32:57.

:32:57. > :33:38.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:33:38. > :33:48.You will see a lot of that, when they pick up the ball in space,

:33:48. > :34:01.

:34:01. > :34:05.tournament three victories from four games, having gone four without a

:34:05. > :34:09.win. The runners up in England's

:54:14. > :54:24.only three goals. And it was a 2-2 then slightly overran it. Is this

:54:24. > :54:48.

:54:48. > :54:52.the opportunity for her now? Just a Dutch defence, got sucked across the

:54:52. > :54:58.pitch. Very narrow. And just a bit fortunate that there was a great

:19:19. > :19:24.Netherlands couldn't have complained about the penalty but we are going

:19:24. > :19:33.to score anyway! The thing I love about this German confidence, I am

:19:33. > :19:39.not too sure, I have seen it so many times as an England fan, but should

:19:39. > :19:44.Marozsan have done better? Well, she has another 45 minutes to do

:19:44. > :19:48.better. Great touch, great position. Unfortunately she doesn't get enough

:19:48. > :19:53.spin around the ball to finished off because it was a really good bit of

:19:53. > :19:56.attacking. Unlucky this time. She can do better. Yes, it was lovely

:19:56. > :20:05.one touch passing and it was just that last little... She didn't get

:20:05. > :20:08.over the keeper or curl it around the keeper. Just flip it over!

:20:08. > :20:15.is your first time as a pundit and it is so much easier than playing!

:20:15. > :20:20.Yes! What about your goalkeeper? We heard from Nadine Angerer before the

:20:20. > :20:28.game and she was called into action twice. A couple of very good saves.

:20:28. > :20:37.Absolutely. A really good shot. Yes... A poor ball outside. It would

:20:37. > :20:41.have been a goal but... It is not that easy to beat Angerer. I think

:20:41. > :20:46.she is going to be lucky to have a touch on the ball. Yes, but it shows

:20:46. > :20:50.her confidence as she drove at the defence. And this was the second

:20:50. > :20:54.chance. A nice header but you can see she sort of pulls off at the

:20:54. > :21:01.back post and there's nobody marking her. I'm not sure the German defence

:21:01. > :21:07.would be happy about that. Even if Medina and had saved it, but it

:21:07. > :21:11.shouldn't happen again. -- Nadine Angerer. We don't see that too

:21:11. > :21:20.often. But one incident of poor Dutch defending in particular, apart

:21:20. > :21:24.from the penalty decision, was when Maier had a header from a free kick.

:21:24. > :21:28.Yes, she has a short look to the left and then she just loses track

:21:28. > :21:34.of the play. She just stops and doesn't follow her. You can see at

:21:34. > :21:38.any second now. She just watches, she doesn't go to the ball or mock

:21:38. > :21:44.the player and now she can save the ball but that was really lucky for

:21:44. > :21:49.her. -- mark the player. But from Maier, what a fantastic run. She

:21:49. > :21:52.just runs through the defenders and who is going to pick her up? So I

:21:52. > :21:57.thought from an attacking point of view it was a great move. But having

:21:57. > :22:00.said that, there was a lot of good Dutch defending in that half. How

:22:00. > :22:05.many times did they blocked German chances and strikes from all over

:22:05. > :22:08.the place? I just love their resilience. You see there,

:22:08. > :22:13.absolutely putting their bodies on the line. That is what they are

:22:13. > :22:18.trying to do. And every time, Germany broke and had that chance

:22:18. > :22:21.and then there was last-ditch challenge. They have got to actually

:22:21. > :22:28.run 20, 30 yards to close the ball down and defender make it difficult

:22:28. > :22:33.for Germany. Absolutely. Whenever a player comes in, and other jumps in.

:22:33. > :22:37.It is really hard to strike. And it doesn't give the attacker a lot of

:22:37. > :22:41.time to think how to shoot so you've got to be really quick. But it will

:22:41. > :22:44.be interesting to see how long the Netherlands can keep up this power.

:22:44. > :22:49.It is a lot of pressure from the Germans and it's going to be

:22:49. > :22:53.growing. OK, we will see from the second half. Hope Powell and the

:22:53. > :22:59.England squad have been putting the finishing touches to their squad for

:22:59. > :23:04.the match against Spain. They have only completed like training at the

:23:04. > :23:14.stadium before heading elsewhere for a full session. Sally Nugent can

:23:14. > :23:20.

:23:20. > :23:23.tell us why that is. Jacqui, I can tell you we are inside the low --

:23:23. > :23:27.the arena in Linkoping. UEFA initially said they didn't want the

:23:27. > :23:30.team 's training on this pitch because of the terrible storm that

:23:30. > :23:33.happened in Sweden yesterday and they were concerned the pitch might

:23:33. > :23:38.be waterlogged. I don't know if you can see it at the moment, but this

:23:38. > :23:42.pitch is not brilliant. And we have some local inside information which

:23:42. > :23:46.is that this pitch, the entire thing, was replaced at the request

:23:46. > :23:50.of UEFA because the original pitch that had been laid when the stadium

:23:50. > :23:53.was built back in October had not bedded in particularly well. It had

:23:53. > :23:57.been a long, cold winter so there were concerns about the pitch and I

:23:58. > :24:03.would say after yesterday's storm, looking at it myself, even now it

:24:03. > :24:08.doesn't look brilliant. OK, that is not great news, but in terms of the

:24:08. > :24:11.injuries that England, that has been dominating the build-up. Six players

:24:11. > :24:18.with question marks and then Sophie Bradley, who we believe is properly

:24:18. > :24:23.out for the first game. Is that right? What are they saying? That is

:24:23. > :24:27.absolutely right. Hope Powell has said that for sure, 24 hours ago. So

:24:27. > :24:30.we know Sophie is out for the first game at the very least. But Hope

:24:30. > :24:34.Powell gave a press conference right here within the last hour or so and

:24:34. > :24:40.I asked her about injuries, about the team, and this is what she had

:24:40. > :24:44.to say. Everybody is doing OK. Obviously, I think it is well

:24:44. > :24:52.documented about Sophie but everybody else is fine. Fit and

:24:52. > :24:56.healthy and up for selection. I'm not going to tell you! Looking at

:24:56. > :24:59.Spain with just had the Spanish press conference and I asked them

:24:59. > :25:09.what they knew about England. And she looked down and went,

:25:09. > :25:10.

:25:10. > :25:15.everything. Nice! What you know about Spain? Everything! And that is

:25:15. > :25:18.Hope Powell! Her first experience at a major tournament. She won't give

:25:18. > :25:21.everything away before a match and neither should she, but you have

:25:21. > :25:26.been talking to the Spanish at their press conference this evening, and

:25:26. > :25:30.what have they said about this match? Well, you heard me say it to

:25:30. > :25:35.hope Powell right there. So confident of their striker. I know

:25:35. > :25:41.it is only a press conference. It wasn't raining or a match. But very,

:25:41. > :25:45.very relaxed and very confident. -- it wasn't training. I went on to ask

:25:45. > :25:49.her, what you know about the team? And she said, we already know the

:25:49. > :25:53.team. So she seems to think she knows the team England is playing

:25:53. > :26:03.tomorrow night, which isn't something Hope Powell is willing to

:26:03. > :26:06.say publicly. I will say that privately, sources close to the

:26:06. > :26:16.England camp are fine but also the line coming from England is that

:26:16. > :26:17.

:26:17. > :26:25.Spain are quite lucky to be here. Really disbelief -- really?! What is

:26:25. > :26:30.the plan tonight? For the team, not you, Sally! Where we are staying

:26:30. > :26:35.here it is very quiet. Not a huge amount to do. They are staying in

:26:35. > :26:38.beautiful hotels with a lovely garden and a man-made beach. -- in a

:26:38. > :26:42.beautiful hotel. I was concerned the players might get bored but it

:26:42. > :26:47.hasn't worked like that at all. They are incredibly relaxed and have been

:26:47. > :26:51.very busy with training. They are kind of going together as a unit, if

:26:51. > :26:55.you like. When you see them walking around the team hotel, they are

:26:55. > :27:00.very, very relaxed. Laughing, joking, smiling, and lots of them

:27:00. > :27:07.are on social media like Twitter the whole time. They seem very happy

:27:07. > :27:10.where they are. Good to hear. Thank you very much. Well, one of the

:27:10. > :27:16.England players is Karen Carney, who made an explosive impact as a

:27:16. > :27:22.teenager in the opening group game of England's Championship campaign

:27:22. > :27:32.here in 2005. But she has struggled with consistency over the last

:27:32. > :27:38.

:27:38. > :27:42.That is still Karen Carney! A brilliant save! It is in! Karen

:27:42. > :27:47.Carney! England have won it right at the end! It is Karen Carney! The

:27:48. > :27:52.17-year-old! Karen set the bar in terms of her natural ability and

:27:52. > :27:58.skill and we kind of set ourselves, can we find a number of Karen

:27:58. > :28:05.Carneys? But there is only one macro. Her character grew through

:28:05. > :28:09.football and her confidence. And she did dancing back then, an Irish

:28:09. > :28:16.dancer and the old disco dancing as well, so I'm glad to see so many

:28:16. > :28:21.years on that confidence has now transferred into her as a person.

:28:21. > :28:24.manager says I give 85 minutes of madness and five minutes of good

:28:24. > :28:28.work and that five minutes of good work is worth it! I don't think I'm

:28:28. > :28:31.that bad but that was his perception of it. I do five minutes of good

:28:31. > :28:36.work that might lead to a goal or a chancel or something where you

:28:36. > :28:43.think, where have you been for the last 85 minutes? I'm not going to

:28:43. > :28:47.agree with him because it goes in one ear and out the other! So... She

:28:47. > :28:50.has just gone out and performed on the stage at such a young age. It

:28:50. > :29:00.hasn't affected her so she hasn't been caught up with the circus, so

:29:00. > :29:02.

:29:02. > :29:06.to speak. She has gone a met the Queen! I mean, come on! I want to be

:29:06. > :29:11.quite raw and young and get back to my confident ways. I think I haven't

:29:11. > :29:21.been the most confident player in the last number of years. I've

:29:21. > :29:23.

:29:23. > :29:27.actually got fire in my belly that I potentially tomorrow night. It is

:29:27. > :29:32.almost time to hand back to our live commentary. What are your thoughts

:29:32. > :29:35.on the second-half? I think we are going to see a really entertaining

:29:35. > :29:45.team still and I am sure Germany is going to school and we are going to

:29:45. > :29:51.

:29:51. > :30:01.be winning this game! As easy as half-time. They have introduced

:30:01. > :30:02.

:30:02. > :30:12.Simone louder. -- Simone Laudehr. Time to get the second half under

:31:15. > :31:19.away. By van de Donk. Yes, well, it just shows the strength of the

:31:19. > :31:29.German team. We have just seen their replay here. She needs to make that

:31:29. > :31:32.

:31:32. > :31:36.header because Cramer has come in on strength of some of the players on

:31:36. > :31:45.the bench that Germany have at their disposal. With Laudehr coming on,

:31:45. > :31:50.very experienced, 60th cap. I remember playing against her in

:31:50. > :31:55.2007. Wanting to make an immediate impact. She is actually 27

:31:55. > :32:05.tomorrow. An early birthday present! She is someone who would be starting

:32:05. > :32:06.

:32:06. > :32:14.for them early normally. She has certainly had a lot of experience

:32:14. > :32:24.and can score some great goals. actually scored in the 2007 World

:33:43. > :34:15.

:34:15. > :34:22.the substitute. That is more like the Germany we might expect. Yes,

:34:22. > :34:28.but again, a great cross and really ambitious, looking to get forward,

:34:28. > :34:38.happy to bring it back on her weaker foot. And then there was Laudehr

:34:38. > :34:54.

:34:54. > :34:58.looking to come and make an impact, supply the team can give her and van

:34:58. > :35:06.de Ven has normally been in the game. Hard to make an impact with

:35:06. > :35:09.Germany. It is those kinds of players whose experience you need

:35:09. > :35:19.and the quality when they get in possession. And certainly the

:35:19. > :35:26.

:35:26. > :35:35.Netherlands. I'm sure the German coach would have told them what she

:35:35. > :35:39.wants to happen during halftime. You would think that should be taken out

:35:39. > :35:46.for the game, that piercing in her tongue! The referee has busily not

:35:46. > :35:50.seen that. The Germans won't be happy going in 0-0, though. They

:35:50. > :35:53.have this confidence in their play, in their expectations of themselves,

:35:53. > :36:03.and, you know, they will always want to be scoring goals, getting the

:57:50. > :57:58.and just her third cap. Introduced by Silvia Neid, the second change,

:57:58. > :58:04.as she looks for an alteration in the scoreline. And I think that just

:58:04. > :58:14.shows the confidence she has in her young players. And you've got

:58:14. > :58:42.

:58:42. > :58:49.Bajramaj from the bench as well. 61 cross as well. They really

:58:49. > :58:53.anticipated it. Yes, she's working hard, certainly looking to take the

:58:53. > :59:03.game by the scruff of the neck to have something for the Netherlands.

:59:03. > :59:35.

:59:35. > :59:38.Just made a bit of space and then kind of situation. She slowed it

:59:38. > :59:48.down and the Dutch midfield did well to recover. Under a little bit of

:00:13. > :00:23.of the last eight tournaments and they weren't expecting this going

:00:36. > :00:39.That from Spitse. Really encouraging by the Dutch. It just shows when

:00:39. > :00:49.they commit, a few more options come to the player on the ball and they

:00:49. > :01:05.

:01:05. > :01:15.can put the Germans under a bit of game in the last ten, 15 minutes or

:01:15. > :01:15.

:01:15. > :02:01.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:02:01. > :02:05.to be something special from that four years ago. You just since the

:02:05. > :02:09.Netherlands have a chance here. I just think they have been able to

:02:09. > :02:12.find the feet of the midfielders, the forwards, and the wide players

:02:12. > :02:17.when they are building their attacks are committing players forward and

:02:17. > :02:21.they seem to be winning the second balls, the drop downs, with a bit

:02:21. > :02:27.more urgency. I think that really gave them confidence. That is a

:02:27. > :02:32.great ball in from van de Ven. It was crying out for a touch. Again, a

:02:32. > :02:36.good cross, and you've got two players making a run. Just a bit too

:02:36. > :02:46.far in front of them. Sticks her foot up but can't quite. But again,

:02:46. > :03:06.

:03:06. > :03:13.space to get the shot but the defence does well just to ease her

:03:13. > :03:23.own. And they've played the advantage and it puts Germany in

:03:23. > :03:41.

:03:41. > :03:45.through and it looks like she got the forearm into the neck. I don't

:03:45. > :03:53.know if she more ran into the Dutch player. She has certainly come off

:03:53. > :03:59.worse for wear, right on the windpipe. This is the break when she

:03:59. > :04:02.just bursts through... Just nudges her and puts her off balance. To

:04:02. > :04:11.stop taking that shot. A bit fortunate but she does well there

:04:11. > :04:21.react. Goes through and just enough there to ease her off it. A couple

:04:21. > :04:32.

:04:33. > :04:42.of defenders they're just clearing but none as yet here. The first

:04:43. > :05:17.

:05:17. > :05:21.in the back. The German feathers are certainly ruffled. But the Dutch

:05:21. > :05:25.will know it is all about concentration now. They've given so

:05:25. > :05:29.much and have got to the 80th minute mark. Yes, and that's when you just

:05:29. > :05:32.have to work that little bit extra with your team, keep your

:05:32. > :05:42.concentration. Because the Germans, they will, they will keep probing

:05:43. > :05:47.and pick up these missed balls. real clean connection. It is like

:05:47. > :05:51.they won't panic. They still believe in the way they play and, again, if

:05:51. > :05:54.a chance does fall to one of their players, they will think they have

:05:54. > :06:04.the confidence that they will convert. It is just a matter of

:06:04. > :06:04.

:06:04. > :08:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 51 seconds

:08:46. > :08:50.That is the substitute with a confident effort. She picks up the

:08:50. > :09:00.ball in space, looks up and real aisleses, actually I'll take a shot.

:11:48. > :12:05.

:17:16. > :17:19.The opportunity has gone. They could have really rewritten the history

:17:19. > :17:24.books there. As it is, it's a battling and very

:17:24. > :17:30.brave and deserved point for the Netherlands. They have held the

:17:30. > :17:35.holders in the opening game of Group B. That is a shock, Germany dropping

:17:35. > :17:41.points straight away. Yeah, it's a brilliant display in the second half

:17:41. > :17:45.particularly by the Dutch. They will take confidence from that. The

:17:45. > :17:50.Germans, I'm sure, will bounce back. They will put the things that have

:17:50. > :17:54.gone right in this game right and will still be strong. Germany begin

:17:54. > :18:01.the defence of their trophy with only a point, all four in Group B

:18:01. > :18:08.have that at the end of today. It has finished just any 0, Netherlands

:18:08. > :18:12.-- Germany 0, Netherlands 0. Wow that result certainly goes down

:18:12. > :18:17.as a major shock to the system for the Germans, they are not top of

:18:17. > :18:21.Group B as two out of three of us in the studio predicted this evening.

:18:21. > :18:26.One point apiece through groups A and B. Four draws out of four so

:18:31. > :18:41.this tournament tomorrow. We shall see. Martina Hingis, Germany ledge

:18:41. > :18:44.

:18:44. > :18:48.end, four -- Ariane Hingst, what happened? Everyone else is going to

:18:48. > :18:52.be really happy now, finally somebody has got some points from

:18:52. > :18:56.Germany. The team shouldn't be too unhappy about the result. It's still

:18:56. > :19:00.a point. It's good for a young team. It's not a loss yet. We're going to

:19:00. > :19:05.come back better. Really unusual in the studio that we give you any

:19:05. > :19:08.credit for anything, but I have to be honest and say that we both said

:19:08. > :19:13.comfortable Germany victory and Sue Smith saying, no, a draw. I don't

:19:13. > :19:17.mean to brag, but, yeah, I did predict a draw. To be honest I've

:19:17. > :19:21.just watched Holland a few times and I've liked the way that they played.

:19:21. > :19:23.Tonight, they did defend, you know, they had to. They defended in

:19:23. > :19:27.they had to. They defended in numbers. They did really well that

:19:28. > :19:35.way. Then they went forward and created chances. I was happy with a

:19:35. > :19:39.Dre. --Draw. Manon Melis, what a glorious opportunity when she was

:19:39. > :19:43.clean through one on one. When you play against Germany you have to

:19:43. > :19:46.take those chances. You only get one or two chances in the game. It's a

:19:46. > :19:50.positive run. It's a long ball into the channels, but she does really

:19:50. > :19:55.well to get onto the end of it. Can you see she's so right-footed. If

:19:55. > :20:04.she was a lefty she could have took it to the side and just played, but

:20:04. > :20:10.for me the goalkeeper does fantastically well. It's one of

:20:10. > :20:14.Nadine Angerer's strength -- strengths, she stays up. It's hard,

:20:14. > :20:19.you don't know which way to go, if the keeper is standing. Feel the

:20:19. > :20:22.breath of the defender coming back. She was really great. She's so

:20:22. > :20:26.confident, isn't she, Nadine Angerer? You must have loved playing

:20:26. > :20:30.in front of her for years. You didn't love seeing Germany have

:20:30. > :20:36.three penalty appeals waved away. One of them you were screaming

:20:36. > :20:38.about. Daphne Koster, on Lotzen, clear penalty for you? Yeah,

:20:39. > :20:44.clear penalty for you? Yeah, absolutely. We have seen it before.

:20:44. > :20:49.She doesn't touch the ball at all. No-one complains, besides Celia

:20:49. > :20:53.Okoyino da Mbabi in the middle. That should have been a penalty. That's

:20:53. > :20:59.soccer. The referee maybe thought that Koster had got a touch and

:20:59. > :21:04.cleared it. Then Anja Mittag was stopped in her tracks by a by nation

:21:04. > :21:11.of Bito and Van den Heilingenberg. didn't think this was a penalty. She

:21:11. > :21:14.makes a fantastic run and beat Van den Heilingenberg. If you can just

:21:14. > :21:16.see Mittag just catches her foot. see Mittag just catches her foot.

:21:16. > :21:26.see Mittag just catches her foot. see Mittag just catches her foot.

:21:26. > :21:27.

:21:27. > :21:30.It's not a penalty for me. No, easy to see in slow motion. Credit to the

:21:30. > :21:34.referee for this. Maybe the assistant could have made a sign

:21:34. > :21:38.because I really think the army is where it shouldn't be. It is that

:21:38. > :21:40.there... It is definitely a handball and even if the referee couldn't

:21:40. > :21:50.have seen it the assistant should have made a sign and it should have

:21:50. > :21:54.been. Yes, it is like, why would Hoogendijk put her on out there like

:21:54. > :21:56.that unless she was going to defend? This didn't quite look like the

:21:56. > :22:02.Germany side we have seen over the years but that is probably because

:22:03. > :22:07.it is not. It is a much younger version. The average age of the

:22:08. > :22:11.starting line-up, apart from Angerer in goal, was 23, and that became

:22:11. > :22:17.apparent around the hour mark when they perhaps started giving the ball

:22:17. > :22:21.away too much? Yes, this is the problem with a young team they have

:22:21. > :22:24.some ups and downs. And this is what you can see. They were losing the

:22:24. > :22:28.track a bit and it happened in the game which they played against Japan

:22:28. > :22:36.as well. In preparation for this tournament. That is just what

:22:36. > :22:45.happens. Yeah, some really easy losing. Yes, that is just sloppy,

:22:45. > :22:49.isn't it? Again, it comes out. You can see what she is trying to do but

:22:49. > :22:53.are they trying to force it a little bit? Because as you mentioned, with

:22:54. > :23:02.use, you are trying to get that goal, argue? You are pushing

:23:02. > :23:06.forward. -- with youth football. Yes, we are really getting nervous

:23:06. > :23:10.because we haven't scored. If you have some older players, they would

:23:10. > :23:14.be like, relaxed, calm down, we have 90 minutes. And like you said, it is

:23:14. > :23:22.a young team but they are going to learn from this game a lot. Even

:23:22. > :23:26.more than they would have. player we picked out before, that

:23:26. > :23:30.was da Mbabi. What did you make of her performance? Obviously the other

:23:30. > :23:37.teams have done their homework as well. She didn't have the space.

:23:37. > :23:43.Really great defending. It was a tough game. A tough game for her to

:23:44. > :23:48.play. Players helping each other out. You would expect her to be a

:23:48. > :23:53.bit higher forward. She seemed to be trying to get hold of the ball and

:23:53. > :24:00.not going deep. I suppose in the areas you would want her to be in,

:24:00. > :24:03.she wasn't there. Nothing really clear-cut for me. But your manager,

:24:04. > :24:08.Silvia Neid, really experienced. How do you reckon she would react to a

:24:08. > :24:13.match like this? What sort of thing would she say to her young players?

:24:13. > :24:16.She would say, girls, we haven't lost a point. There will be a lot of

:24:16. > :24:19.things they are going to analyse to be better in the next game but she

:24:19. > :24:27.won't be too unhappy with this result, even if it might surprise

:24:27. > :24:29.you guys. She will say, it is fine, we can build on that and everything

:24:30. > :24:35.is fine. We are still in the tournament. You are in the

:24:35. > :24:40.tournament but still is -- so is everybody else! We think they could

:24:40. > :24:46.win it tomorrow? Yes, why not? They will be looking there saying, if we

:24:46. > :24:49.go there, we will know how to play them. One team wins again and they

:24:49. > :24:55.are top of the table, so you've got to look at it with confidence if you

:24:55. > :25:00.are another team. That must hurt you as a German! Other teams are looking

:25:00. > :25:06.and saying, we could win it. can't just run over like that in

:25:06. > :25:10.this tournament! We come slowly and build upon that! OK, so eight teams

:25:10. > :25:20.have now played their first game in this tournament. Four more to go and

:25:20. > :25:23.

:25:23. > :25:27.It is Karen Carney! England have won it right at the end! And it is Kelly

:25:27. > :25:33.Smith. She couldn't score again, could she? Yes, she has! It is

:25:34. > :25:43.brilliant! Past the tackle. To try to put it in! And that is a

:25:44. > :25:44.

:25:44. > :25:54.brilliant goal! Going through to the quarter-finals of the World Cup!

:25:54. > :25:57.

:25:57. > :26:01.night. Absolutely cannot wait for that! And, Sue Smith, you have been

:26:01. > :26:05.there so many times. What is it like the night before that first game?

:26:05. > :26:09.is nerve wracking so I think you just want to relax. Different

:26:09. > :26:13.players do different things. I like to chill out and watch a film. Other

:26:13. > :26:16.girls will go and play games like table tennis. But you just want to

:26:16. > :26:19.relax and maybe not think about the game too much, because then the next

:26:19. > :26:27.day you are focused and ready to go. You have the tactics on what you

:26:27. > :26:30.need to do as a play about the night before you want to relax, because if

:26:30. > :26:35.you start getting nervous than I before, you will struggle in the

:26:35. > :26:39.game. It is easy to say that what is it easy to do that? Some younger

:26:39. > :26:49.players are nervous and some older players can be. It really depends on

:26:49. > :26:49.

:26:49. > :26:55.the player. I was pretty, -- pretty calm most of the time. Twitter is a

:26:55. > :26:58.bit of a temptation, though, isn't it? It is, and I think the girls are

:26:58. > :27:02.experienced enough to know not to tweet too late at night and just

:27:02. > :27:05.focus. Because I think Twitter can build you up and also knock you

:27:05. > :27:09.down. So if you are reading something that says something not as

:27:09. > :27:19.positive as you would like, maybe, that could affect you in the game,

:27:19. > :27:33.

:27:33. > :27:36.so for me, I would keep well away as a player. I think now it is fine to

:27:36. > :27:38.tweet but as you say, it can be a positive and a negative thing.

:27:38. > :27:42.has been a pleasure to have you, Sue, as always, and, Ariane, it has

:27:42. > :27:44.been lovely to have you as well for the first time but not for the last.

:27:44. > :27:47.Make sure you join us tomorrow night for England's first game of 2013.

:27:47. > :27:49.They kick against Spain from 7pm. There will be commentary on BBC

:27:49. > :27:52.Radio 5 Live. So perhaps just a chink of light. Of the other teams
