The stat was xG conceded. Also I think top on crosses into their own box. But that was earlier in the tournament and their opponents were mostly happy to sit back.
Ouch.
xG conceded is the logical stat (are there similar stats that take into account blocked shots or other dangers that don’t show up in xG?). If someone claimed a team was best defensively because of corners given up then they’re arguing in bad faith
I’m about to experience my first time watching the Euros in the U.K.
About to head to my hotel and put my England top on.
England were terrible, again, in first half. Slovakia didn’t have much to invest and defend to be in the lead. Reminds me so far of the Switzerland-Italy game from yesterday.
We are so unbelievably bad, honestly, talk about the whole being less than the sum of its parts. Shocking.
Oh my god! A goal! How did that happen?
Oh, off-side, I guess. That would explain it.
Completely unnecessary offside from Foden.
This is England?
I don’t remember us having a single (legitimate) shot on target all match. Pathetic.
So every foul is a yellow card now?
Eh, there are only five yellow cards so far, that’s not even aspirational in this tournament.
Guess 2021 really was a lucky fluke then.

They played the biggest shite imaginable, but then such a goal! Unbelievable.
England better do in penalties what it couldn’t achieve three years ago.
(Yes, I know, still lots of time to go)
Extra time? More of this? OMG! Sigh…
I am in London right now watching this! I screamed loudly, ‘Do yo believe in miracles? Yes, yes yes!!!’
what the holy fuck
Five minutes ago I had typed out the post “Mother of mercy, is this the end of Southgate?” but hadn’t hit send.
