Where the Fuck is the fight in England? Colombia are taking it to them and England isn’t responding. This is hard to watch.
England showing nothing during Extra Time. Like they have no idea what to do. Columbia much more likely to score.
Think of Germanys trauma as a forrest fire. Yes it destroys today’s forrest. But it allows the rebirth of a new healthier forrest. ![]()
They did that a bit during the group stages - just ran out of ideas for periods, and no-one really experienced and authoritative on the pitch to change things.
I have a feeling we’re going to see the opposite lesson learned from yesterday’s Japan-Belgium game. In the same that being overaggressive cost Japan, being too passive is going to cost England today.
Vardy has brought some fire to this match.
It HAS been 12 years since we got to see England do PKs in a World Cup though so I do look forward to that
Agree Sterling can be a frustrating player to watch, but if had composure he’d be in the world eleven. He’s still an excellent player - head and shoulders above most other England players.
Dele Alli absolutely stank the place out there, again. Something going badly wrong with that bloke moving from a Spurs to an England shirt.
Well, as we use to say, Dein Wort in Gottes Ohr.
Vardy’s speed causing problems…
Germany has great young players. Didn’t they win all 5 FIFA youth cups?
Rashford on.
I have a bad feeling about this…
I like me some PKs
Nos gustamos las patadas!
¡Vamos Colombia!
Regardless of the outcome, the British media will have a great narrative to tell. Either the national trauma continues or Southgate breaks the cycle.
Columbia kicking first.
Do soccer fans really enjoy penalty kicks? I’m only a casual watcher of soccer, but penalty shootouts happen in hockey, too, and I hate them there.
If England win the shootout, the WC is theirs for the taking, big mental block gone.
When have the British media ever NOT had a great narrative they were willing to tell? ![]()
