He was, not excuses, neutrals hate England so of course they're say otherwise. But it was pretty clear.

Exactly.

If people actually judge the match on what actually happened and not on which team that they like more, they'll see that England should've had a penalty in the first half, and France's first goal should've been disallowed because of the foul on Saka up the other end of the pitch.

These are facts of what happened in the game, and considering France only won narrowly, to say that it didn't make a difference, or that France deserved the win is just not true.

Yeah, all what you say is true. People get fed up with the hype surrounding England in British Isles. But at least one team constantly makes it the tournaments and does well.

The Scots and the Welsh will be celebrating like they won the world cup tonight, after England's exit. Ironic really, Scotland didn't make it, and the only team worse than Wales was Qatar, which is just plain embarrassing. Wales didn't even score an goal from open play, Qatar did.

All too true.

Scotland got sliced open by San Marino that one time.

But honestly if Scotland or Wales had been robbed like England were today, I would be saying the exact same thing that I'm saying now, I can't stand results being determined by dodgy Ref decisions.

Heck I'd even say the same thing if it was a Premier League match and Aston Villa were robbed by a pathetic Referee decision, it isn't on to cheat teams out of competitions imo.

but as a Scot, i have zero expectation of them having any success, so they are never a disappointment, and i never get sour grapes about it
