Spence never got in front of his man. That's where he went wrong.

Good grief. It's the most obvious dive you could ever wish to see. Just ask yourself "Who is fouling whom?" Bobb is closer to the ball than Spence, Spence's right leg is thrust in between Bobb's legs from behind and on his left. Spence's left leg has given up completely and is always the dressing room. It should gave been a foul to Norway and a tellow card for Spence. I ask again, was Spence tripped?

Stonewall penalties are always the ones that are the least convincing. That was one of the most obvious attempts to cheat that you will ever see. Which leg do you think was tripped?

Our son spent a year there at the Technical University where all the courses were in the German language. It’s a lovely town with a very good micro-brewery. The second smallest in Germany we were told. There are copper vats behind the bar and the beer is piped from them overhead to the bar itself. Mind you, this was over thirty years ago. Wolfenbüttel a few miles to the south is also a lovely place.

When we visited Charleston (in October) it was almost unbearably hot. One local told us that in summer it gets so stifingly hot that "you can’t breathe". Ridiculous place to hold a football competition.

It was quite a bit more than just 'placing his leg in front'. Spencer was running alongside and then hooks his right leg across the defender at an awkward angle. Then he tucks his left leg up in an attempt to pretend that he had been brought down. In no way was he tripped and he was fortunate to escape a yellow card. It was embarrassingly bad by Spence but he nearly got away with it, which is bad.

You can't just stick your leg out sideways across an opposition player. If anything it is a free kick to them.

I thought it was supposed to be Geoff Hurst. Nothing like him either..

That was hard work.

Only if you have a licence.

Yet VAR was instrumental in getting their goal disallowed.

Is it open until 5?

He stuck his leg across the defender and engineered the situation.
-
Actually he isn't.

This won't stand.

Very generous.

The value of taking a shot.

That gave me time to load the dishwasher.

This is all down the wrong end.

Ball not in play.

He doesn't seem right.

One moment of magic.
