Euro 2024 (1 Viewer)

Spain look incredible. Don’t fancy our chances if we go through tomorrow.
 
Forget the mostly-lacklustre performance. It's the ITV curse that's going to get England :(

Since 1996, there have been 31 matches broadcast solely on ITV, with England winning only nine of them. There have been 10 defeats in that time, with 12 draws.

That's in stark contrast to when England matches have been shown exclusively on the BBC.

The UK's state broadcaster has shown 29 England matches in the same period, with 21 of those games ending in victory for the Three Lions.
 
Lamine's goal was unbelievable. I had no idea you could play being just 16, is there no age limit?

Good luck today, this time you may need some, but I hope you make the final and TVE plays another promo like this, where they don't have to change much, just the name of the country :eyes: :D

 
Time to bring Luke Shaw on. If we're going to lose, let's at least do it sexily.
 
Wasn't this the referee who got banned for match-fixing? I'm not saying his decision-making is questionable after the call on that penalty but... :D
 
I don't think I can be pleased for England there. That penalty / yellow card felt OTT. I might go Team Orange.
 
Foden's ball definitely seemed like it went over the line then. They could have at least given it the time of day and checked it! Then calling a stop to play because a second ball on the pitch. An administrative SHAMBLES.
 
Do they have separate technology for balls crossing the line? (Or did they ditch it?)
 
The Dutch defence are quite annoying.

Harry Kane's relative lack of speed compared to the younger players makes him quite easy to mark. It's pretty noticeable that there's someone there to intercept almost every ball that's crossed to him in the box.

I've noticed this too. He's great when the ball comes to him, but not great when it lands away from him. He just doesn't react quick enough.
 
Southgate’s interview before the game, about the players fearing the media and holding back, really resonates now
