Keeper not that good then. 

It's one that bounced just before the keeper so he wasn't quite in the right position,  ball just hit him , unlucky I would say !

Courtois Bazed the first one palming out to the striker   you could say .

Just seen replay and keeper tried to catch it, most keeper have been punching ball out. Defenders were too slow to kick ball away.

England training at Beckham's club. I would put Beckham in team as the about of balls he launched into box is ridiculous. Also for Man U. England need to get the ball in box ASAP as often as possible.

Spain need those little errors to score because they struggle without them. If they had a real goalscorer ....

Spain have been lucky with the last minute goals but not sure it will matter against France anyway - they have too much quality and have been lucky with no injuries.

I said at the start of the tournament France were my favourites and nothing has really changed my opinion. That said Spain play beautiful quick one touch football and they play with wonderful confidence. I really hope they can go up another gear and send the French packing and we have a Spain v England final. That's a win win 😉

It's not luck, a game is for 90 minutes plus injury team, Spain grind down teams with their relentless pressing. It's not surprising teams switch off towards the end of games as they get more physically and mentally tired.

Would we be saying England are lucky if they scored goals at the end off games??

I absolutely was saying England were lucky with late goals during the last Euros!

We aren’t going to contain Haaland tonight. There’s just Norway.

There won't be many more. Like everything in the world cup, touts have been viking up the price of puns.

That fucking Scottish bitch on Talksport was on about the special relationship between Scotland and Norway.

Fucking arsehole.  Get the twat off the airwaves.

England 3-1 Norway

Despite the four goals, I'm predicting a tight and dullish game, but with a goal for each team in the first half. After 78mins or so England's forwards finally break through to make it 2-1. England score a third in injury time as Norway looks to feed Haaland.

Look, obviously, I have no idea...

...but this is the best scenario for the scorer of England's third goal to celebrate by doing the Viking Row. THAT is all is ask.
