The Italians would have a likeable team if they weren't such cunts play acting etc.

Agreed. Got old quick. Sniper bullets going off in the stands.

England set to revert to back four with Jadon Sancho in contention for first Euros start and Mason Mount in line to return.

Ruthless England run riot in Rome to reach Euro 2020 semi-finals

There are few big games in the life of any manager when he can stand on the touchline, take a deep draught of the night air, reflect on his fine work, and – quite frankly - enjoy the occasion, but for a solid 30 minutes in Rome that was the privilege of Gareth Southgate.

[Romano] Leonardo Spinazzola broke his Achilles tendon, @SkySport just reported. He’ll be out for many months. One of the best players of the Euros so far. #Spinazzola

So anyone watching Czech v. Denmark? Do replays matter at all in this? They gave Denmark a corner kick and they scored even though the replay showed it was clearly out on Denmark. Complete bullshit.

 

[V1LÆM]

hope Ukraine win tonight and shut the english up.

who am i kiddin? even if they do go out tonight they'll still talk about it for years to come

[Svengoolie007]

Just completely outrageous. It should have been 1-1 and gone into overtime. That first goal was illegitimate. I don't understand how they could just let that go.

 

[V1LÆM]

No, it's not.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Congratulations to Denmark. My fellow Nordic neighbors, you play like absolute champs. I hope you go all the way, just like you did in 92.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Well we’ll find out in a couple of hours.

 

[Fret Runner]

Talk about football coming home
And then one night in Rome
We were strong, we had grown.

Hoping for the best. Come on England!

 

[T8SC]

No, it's not.

 

[QuicheFontaine]

No, it's not.

Unfortunately for you, miladdo, it is!

Raheem to score first. Bookmark this post.

lol All football players do this. Are we going to pretend it's only one team doing it?

 

[T8SC]

AND THEN ONE NIGHT IN ROME

WE WERE STRONG

WE HAD GROWN!

THREE LIONS ON A SHIRT!!!!!!!

 

[Blitzmangoman]

Really fast opener from England. Not bad.

Still hope ya cunts don't win though.

What a start!!!!

 

[Blitzmangoman]

Both teams are making mistakes, haha.

 

[godhandiscen]

Both teams are making mistakes, haha.

That’s what happens when you play with the hopes of a nation and all it means in terms of history and identity weighing on your back. International football isn’t the most technical game, but it is fun to watch due to the emotion.

 

[Insane Metal]

Fuck I completely forgot about the games today, where can I watch it?

In general there are a set of decisions that will always got to VAR review like red cards, penalty kicks and if the ball went past the goal line. Other decisions are up to the main referee discretion so they decide if they are sure about their decision or they need to review it via VAR review to make a decision.

Congratulations to Denmark. My fellow Nordic neighbors, you play like absolute champs. I hope you go all the way, just like you did in 92.

They had a full rest and a vacation before that one though, not the case this time. On the other hand they are solid and two games from winning it all.

Fuck I completely forgot about the games today, where can I watch it?

No local channels/networks carrying the tournament for you?

 

[T8SC]

WE'RE GONNA SCORE 2 MORE THAN YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU


ENGLAND!!!!!

[Simon Evans] Kevin De Bruyne: "It was a miracle that I played today because there was definitely damage to my ankle. A tear in my ligaments. But I felt responsibility to play for my country today."

Wait, what happened? I came 5 minutes too late and England scored 2 more? Lol

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

So, when are England facing any good teams in this tournament?

 

[QuicheFontaine]

I'm probably going to wake up in a minute, but fuck it this is still a fun dream

🎙| Toni Kroos: “I don't want to accuse anyone in Germany because there are many fans who appreciate me, but sometimes I had the feeling that some did not appreciate what I did in my 11 years. In Spain it’s different, everyone is grateful since my first game in the last 7 years.”

Guessing Italy vs England, Italy takes it.

 

[Fret Runner]

0-4
yet to concede a goal
Optimism at max.

England GAF, let’s enjoy this fucking ride.

 

[THE:MILKMAN]

England so well controlled/composed with a solid defence this tournament. It is quite freaky but welcome. The only other team to keep a clean sheet for the first 5 games of a major tournament other than Italy at Italia '90.

Another stat that stands out from this game is that according to the BBC stats, England only committed 4 fouls the whole game. Surely another major tournament record?

I mean England surely should beat Denmark at Wembley but you never can never tell as we have already seen so far....
