Swedish goalkeeper Jennifer Folk issues an X-rated rating for her spot kicks in a penalty shootout drama
Swedish goalkeeper Jennifer Faulk made a dull assessment of her penalty in the spot-kick loss to England last night, describing it as “f**** s ***”.
Falk was responsible for placing her country in the semi-finals against Italy at the Women’s Euro 2025, but burned her efforts against the bar.
Crazy scene! 😱

She quickly redeemed herself by saving Grace Clinton’s efforts, but Sofia Jacobsson missed the Rhine match.
Lucy Bronze blew Reed and Lioness with their hands 3-2 when Smira Holmberg hit her penalty on the top.

Lioness Salvage Draw Drawing 90 minutes later with two slow goals
It was a chaotic ending in the match, when defending champions England returned 2-0 to 2-0 and returned to normal hours in 11 minutes and ended 2-2.
Fork was outstanding in the shootouts, saving four spot kicks until he began using his feet instead of his hands.
The 32-year-old told Expressen:
“I just thought I’d take a few deep breaths and put it to the left, but I didn’t.
“It was f****** c****, and we were focused on saving the next penalty.”
We had the match in hand – Erikson
Swedish defender Magdalena Eriksson felt that her side should have sewed the game before it reached time and penalties.
She said: “I feel sad, the sky, the disappointment, everything at the same time. This would be difficult to move on. We had the match (in hand).
The UK were on their way home as the game reached the later stages and Kosobare Asrani and Arsenal forward Stina Blackstenius gained total control in the opening 25 minutes.
However, Salina Wigman did her replacement perfectly. The bronze pulled one back, and Michelle Aggieman thrusts the England level.
“They started pushing, they brought offensive players and put pressure on the backline. They ended up getting paid. During the game we defended the box well, but in these two situations we didn’t.
“We gave it everything, but it’s a shame that that’s not enough. I’m extremely disappointed.”
Absolute roller coaster ride! 🎢
