Have you been watching Women's Euro 2005?

The UEFA Women's European 2005 Championship kicked off this weekend in the UK.

England got their campaign off to a great start with a win against Finland, although they needed an injury-time goal to seal the victory.

Were you watching all the action or did you choose not to bother as it's just not as exciting as the men's game?

Do you think it's not fair that women's football doesn't get as much coverage

as the men's or do you think girls just aren't as good at playing the game?

A girls place is on the pitch with men too.

I think that women's football is an asset to the country. I play for Charlton Girls Centre of Excellence and my county so I think that it is cool. I also think that women should be given a chance and should be even bigger. I am proud of women's footie and my dream is to play for England and America.

Vikki, 14, London

I think it is great because I think that girls have more to join in on because boys are always talking about football.

Sian, 11, Middlesbrough

I don't watch women's footy as I don't think it's as exiting.

Michael, 14, Tamworth

I watched all the match and Karen Carny and Kelly Smith are my fave players and Jo Fletcher is also quite good.

Perri, 9, Leighton Linslade

I went to the match and it was wicked! I think that the game is way better than the lads.

Abbie, 13, Shepshed

I love footie and I'm a girl I'm so glad women can now play football matches. I can't wait to see England play again, they were good.

Iqraa, 11, Harrow

I think England did very well to get the win and I also thought Finland looked very threatening when they were on the attack.

Daniel, 11, Bristol

I was at the game last night and it is better than the men's game.

Georgia, 10, Shaw

I can't wait!! I love footie and play with an all girls club. I think girls are better than boys at football and it's time that that is proved.

Cara, 11, London

I won't be watching - I don't see what all the fuss is about.

Hannah, 11, Lincoln

Of course I will, the only difference from men's football is that it is women playing it! It's football all the same.

Ben, 13, Irby

I play football at women's# level and regularly train with the men, and our team always thrashes them. I wish our girls well!

Rosie, 15, London

Yes, but I will NOT be supporting England. I only support Wales.

David, 13, Cardiff

I won't be watching it. I think that it's quite sexist that men and women don't play together. Are we weak or something?!

Annabel, 14, Hemel Hempstead

I just watched it. I somehow thought it was more exciting than the men's game, probably because it wasn't kick, kick, kick, score. Boring. In women's footie, there's complex passes and unexpected goals. Cool!

Lily, 10, Cambridge

Yeah, finally some girls' footy news - normally it's mostly boys' football in the news !!!

Louise, 11, Staines

Women's football is sooo boring there isn't any action at all! I won't be watching...

Leona, 12, Macduff

Definitely. Women's football has got to be supported! Women can play just as well as men!!!

Eden, 11, Newcastle

I'm definitely watching it, I think everyone should support anybody representing their home country in a international competition.

Wyatt, 10, London

Nah, I hate football. But women can play just as well as men!

Jess, 12 Manchester

I think that boys AND girls should play football together. It would be much more fun watching it.

Nosheen, 12, London

Woman's football is boring, they just do not have the same amount of skill as the men's game does.

Micky

I will start to watch it and see what I think, but I do think it's good that women are given a chance to show what they can do.

Amy, 12, Hastings

I am not really sure actually because women's football in my opinion is boring because they don't have good coordination and they not really that famous so the interest goes away.

Emma, 16, Birmingham

I think that it is great that woman's football is getting so much coverage as woman are just as good as men and deserve publicity-keep up the good work England team!

Rachel, 11, Billericay

Boys are better!

Conor, 10, London

I think is about time there is a women football team and we will win the Euro 2005 and show the men what we can do!

Joanna, 15, Norwich

Defiantly yes. I hope we win. I looked at the pictures of the women's squad I think we will at least manage to get to the semi finals!!

Tori, 9, Bracknell

I'm not really bothered had this been the men's I would be very excited I guess it's because I don't know them that much and men's is much more competitive so masculine football all the way!!!

Abbas, 13, Leicester

I can't wait! It's a chance for women to prove they are just as good as the men at playing and hopefully they'll do a better job then the boys and bring the trophy home. Come on girls we can do it! Lets beat Europe as well as the sexist men out there who say football is not for girls!

Sajidah, 14, London

No way, I hate football. It is so rubbish!! But I believe anything boys can do, girls can do better!

Alice

I'm all for women playing footie but I won't be watching 'cause it's not really my thing. I only watch football for finals like when Liverpool won (woo!)or when England's in the World or European Cup.

Sarah, 16, Halesowen

I will DEFINITELY be watching!!! I adore football and spend hours playing football with my friends - girls and boys!! I think its wicked that there's women's Euro matches!! U go girls!

Bex, 15, Malawi

I'll definitely be watching! Girls are just as good boys at football.

Rebecca, 14, Essex

I'm really looking forward to seeing some of the women's Euro matches. I play football at school and I think girls play just as well as boys.
