Irish pundits were ripping on Southgate for leaving it all to young, dark-skinned, inexperienced lads to take the deciding pens. Especially the last one which was just to stay in it, very high risk for small potential upside.

Failure of management and leadership of the senior players imo

Where's my cow?

Is that my cow?

No it isn't, but it still tramples my bloody lavender.
My lads made me watch and it was kind of boring


The really nasty thing is the mood in the air outside, the agonised and guttural screams in the distance, a car alarm and sirens

The players volunteer for the penalties, no?

If you get swapped in, a minute before the penalties, that's a pretty clear sign by the leadership.

Turns out football wasn't allowed back after we tore up the Schengen agreement I guess.

The biggest shame here is gonna be the various twats dumping on rashford for this and using it to undermine his efforts on school meals etc.

I'm a Brit living in Asia and I forced my eyes open to watch a stream at about 4am. It was the start of the second half, we were one nil up, which was a bit of a surprise. I watched ten minutes of us sitting back far too deep, hoofing long balls up whenever we got hold of it, about 90% Italian possession. The ten minutes ended in their sloppy goal. I rolled my eyes and turned it off...

It's extremely England's style to go out softly on penalties, but we didn't deserve to even get that far IMO

I just hope the government has some plans that might ease the suffering of the English public after this defeat. Something to cheer them up. Say, I dunno, something like giving them all the Delta variant and then saying it's their fault...
