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 . Edited July 10 by East Kent Saint

Just seen replay and keeper tried to catch it, most keeper have been punching ball out. Defenders were too slow to kick ball away.
die Mannyschaft Posted July 10 Posted July 10 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.

SWLondon Saint Posted July 11 Posted July 11 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. 1
BARCELONASAINT Posted July 11 Posted July 11 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?? 2

Maggie May Posted July 11 Posted July 11 We aren’t going to contain Haaland tonight. There’s just Norway. 2

Wade Garrett Posted July 11 Posted July 11 That fucking Scottish bitch on Talksport was on about the special relationship between Scotland and Norway. Fucking arsehole. Get the twat off the airwaves.
Polaroid Saint Posted July 11 Posted July 11 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. 1
SNSUN Posted July 11 Posted July 11 1-1 final score, 2-2 aet. Norway win on penalties. That's my predo although I hope we do it.
vectraman Posted July 11 Posted July 11 (edited) They’ve gone for Haaland and Sorloth up front together. I hope our defence is ready to be bombarded with long balls into the box, and can deal with two 6’5” big men in the air….😬🤞🤞🤞🤞 Edited July 11 by vectraman
LiberalCommunist Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Unusual for me, I feel quite optimistic. Just hope VAR doesn't do us tonight.

Stripey McStripe Shirt Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Really great to have Karen Carney for the pitch side analysis. Great balance of experience/tactical insight as well as some Saturday evening eye candy.

egg Posted July 11 Posted July 11 How can Madueke not see he's offside when looking across the line. He seems to play with his eyes shut. 1

Yep, he's a bottom end PL/championship player for me. He's not at the level England need. I like Gordon more than many, although I'm not sure he's really a winger. 1
Colinjb Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Norway waiting. We have to make them pay, then this game opens up. 1
obelisk Posted July 11 Posted July 11 England need to make their superiority count. The longer its stays at 0-0 the happier Norway will be that they can nick it with an England mistake in defence.
Big M Posted July 11 Posted July 11 My God, the hydration break was the most exciting part of that 25 mins.

Lots of giving it away, brainless play, crap final balls, just offers nothing Edited July 11 by Turkish 3
bpsaint Posted July 11 Posted July 11 It’s remarkable for such a prolific goal scorer just how bad Harry Kane is at free kicks. That effort gave me bad memories of when Roy Hodgson put him on dead ball duties, including taking corners.
SNSUN Posted July 11 Posted July 11 We're gonna shoot ourselves in the foot aren't we. Elimination by crapness.
adrian lord Posted July 11 Posted July 11 (edited) We are now looking tired and Norway got a burst of energy after that hydration break. Edited July 11 by adrian lord
