In the women’s game? As they do with a Tee in golf.

The keepers aren't as big/dynamic/athletic either, so maybe it balances out? I could slot a pen home easily enough when I was 13 though. I think it was just a sh*t pen. |  |

Surely the bigger goal should make the penalty even easier.
Given the way Bronze struck the ball the other night, I don't think the distance is an issue. | |

Yup.
Should have smaller pitches and goals. |
Surely as men have got bigger, fitter and quicker since the pitch size was formulated 100-plus years ago men's pitches should be made bigger! |  | | |

Mike Parry has been saying this for years. Especially raising the height of the crossbar as goalies are now taller. | |

That was suggested about 30 years ago and I seem to recall Shilts was hugely unimpressed with the idea. | | | |
