England reach the Women’s World Cup quarter-finals after a 4-2 win on penalties against Nigeria
BBC commentator Robyn Cowen summed it up as “daylight robbery” as ten-woman England beat Nigeria on penalties to reach the quarter-finals of the Fifa Women’s World Cup. After Lauren James saw red late on in normal time, the last-16 clash in Brisbane finished 0-0 after 120 minutes with the Lionesses progressing after winning 4-2 on spot-kicks.
