Hero-of-Time Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Hands down this is one of the worst games I have seen at this level. Truly awful.
Julius Posted July 6 Author Posted July 6 (edited) How do we keep getting away with this? Revamps the left and the goal comes from the right. Just saying. Edited July 6 by Julius
Hero-of-Time Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Why the hell do we alway do this? Play like this from the start!

Julius Posted July 6 Author Posted July 6 I can't be having a France v England final, I just can't. Immovable object v Object which simply refuses to move
Julius Posted July 6 Author Posted July 6 Extra time again. Swear these Euros are starting to make me hate the sport.

Not that I can remember in my lifetime, either at the Euros or at a World Cup. I'll check at half-time though, because I remember the 2008 Euros QFs all seeming to go on very long

I'll check at half-time though, because I remember the 2008 Euros QFs all seeming to go on very long @Hero-of-Time from what I can find, since 1998 (couldn't be bothered checking any earlier) 2008 Euros were the closest – three of the four quarter finals went to extra time. Croatia v Turkey (1-1 AET, 1-3 on pens) Netherlands v Russia (1-1, 1-3 AET) Spain v Italy (0-0 AET, 4-2 on pens) The only one of those QFs to not go to extra time? Portugal v Germany, which Germany won 3-2. And that was the first of the QF ties! Meaning, in 2008, we had to sit through three consecutive QFs going to ET like we have at this Euros 1

Hero-of-Time Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Palmer was fantastic for Chelsea with pens (did he even miss one last season?)...watch him miss here.
Hero-of-Time Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Respect to Palmer for taking his first, especially how young he is.
Eddage Posted July 6 Posted July 6 How does Ivan Toney not even look at the ball!? Literally just stared at the keeper the entire time! 1

Eddage Posted July 6 Posted July 6 I’m glad Shaw finally got some minutes. I think that should be the end of Trippier starting now. Shaw must’ve made more overlapping runs in about 45 mins than Trippier did in 4 1/2 games! Oh, and that was from left CB as well, he wasn’t even the wingback.
Dcubed Posted July 6 Posted July 6 (edited) England win on penalties? But that’s impossible!! Jammy doesn’t even begin to describe how ridiculously lucky England has been throughout this tourney. Utterly undeserved, but hey! Semis are semis at the end of the day. Edited July 6 by Dcubed
Julius Posted July 6 Author Posted July 6 As said, excellent pens. Can't help but feel that the performance is being oversold by the pundits, though, just because we're through. This match was very 50/50, and while maybe our best performance at this tournament overall, it's still a far cry from where we really need to be. Thankfully for us, though, the only team left in who is actually firing on more than two cylinders is Spain – we might be able to get away with more meagre performances depending on who we face from this point on. Which, I'll admit, just really sucks. Just under 10 until the next match kicks off to decide who we face in the second of the semis on Wednesday, then.

Yeah, it covers up the cracks of our overall performance. We need to do better but as long as we keep getting results things aren't going to change. 6 minutes ago, Eddage said: I’m glad Shaw finally got some minutes.

Oh, and that was from left CB as well, he wasn’t even the wingback. I was dubious when he was subbed on but he was fantastic. Totally agree that Tripper should be done now, providing that Shaw can play a full match.
