The commentator on the Lionesses’ 8-0 smash hilariously owned Lord Sugar’s everyday sexism
In case you’ve somehow missed the news, the UEFA Women’s Euros is underway, and the games have been getting record viewing and attendance figures for women’s football.
On Saturday, Lord Sugar, took to Twitter to comment on something that was apparently affecting his enjoyment of the game.
It wasn’t even what you’d call, well, accurate – and we’re not even talking about ‘symoblic’.
We have plenty of men working on this tournament Lord Sugar, don’t fret you’re not being eradicated.

Just two days later, England’s women – the magnificent Lionesses – absolutely smashed their match against Norway with an 8-0 rout, sending Twitter – and the stadium – into raptures.
What a night! 🔥

Just the 5 goals in 40 minutes for the @Lionesses. Time to stop holding back and really go for it.

It gave commentator Robyn Cowen the opportunity for this subtle but hilarious own.

That’s a lovely shot of one of our studio guests, Jonas Eidevall. One of our symbolic men.
Good evening, Lord Sugar.
That little pause before ‘Good evening, Lord Sugar’ was just –
Here’s what people had to say about it.
