i think the VAR team didn't fancy their remaining stay in Russia if they had called a penalty

It is like the fans are deliberately setting themselves up for the disappointment.

This is what we do

i don't remember so many big teams going out at so early a stage before, but it basically means they are not good enough. If England are going to win it, they are going to need to be the best in form team

On paper you would think it'll be Croatia... but I still think Sweden could be the major surprise this year. They should breeze past Switzerland, and then a QF seems like the perfect timing for us or Colombia to bottle the tournament.

well :shocked:

:omgno:

Oh

omg :laugh:

1 - 1

What a start :hehe:

:omgno: x2

There we goooo!

Insane start :joker:

We're in for a 7-6 result here, fingers crossed

Blimey I popped out for a couple of pints inbetween games and thought I won't miss anything in the first 5 minutes, get back home and there's been two bloody goals

:joker:

I don't like the Russian team very much, or their style of play either, but the whole point of what makes Football such an interesting Sport to watch is all of the different playing styles that each team offers.

Anti-Football imo would be to not play to your strengths to win the game.

When it comes to England it's better to be pessimistic than optimistic.

I save my overly optimistic attitude for the Blues.:dance:

Ahh a lot of good chances there in that small 1-2 minute stretch :worry:

Lmao a great start but it went snooze-y afterwards.

Hoping for an improvement in the second half.

Some nice crosses there but DAMN can't finish it!

A bit of a snooze

Another ET game.Poss another pen game

here we go again
