It Could Get A Bit Messi In Here - The Football Thread.

Clever from Italy’s two defenders. In the first half Kane was dominating Chellini in the air. Second half Bonnuci has taken over as the centre half that attacks the long ball and Kane had been completely out of the match.

If there’s one player I’d love to see score…

Pickford has one mood and it’s just angry he has to do anything

Sounds like me at my work.

 

[Joe Mac]

Jorginho is lucky if he stays on here.

Yeah should have been a red when you see it back. Where’s VAR?

He was making a brew and he missed. That’s like me at my work…

Wish he came on earlier

Honestly he’s been playing though injuries for 18 months with United. Given how central he was for England prior to the tournament I’m guessing he’s not quite fit and was brought on solely because he’s a very good penalty taker.

Poor Marcus

 

[Joe Mac]

Fuck! I’d have put money on Jorginho!

Absolutely gutted for Saka. So much pressure on the teenager. Congrats to Italy tho. Hell of a game

 

[Joe Mac]

Congrats Italy. Probably the best team in the tournament.

Really harsh on England, great first half and penalties are such a rough way to decide a game. Feel so sorry for Saka, that’s heavy on a 19 year old.

Brutal way to lose a final. Feel for Saka, Sancho and Rashford.

All the three young guys actually. Rushford and Sancho are not that much older

Heres hoping all 3 use it as motivation to be drive on to the next level.

All in all. Not gonna lie. Despite the eye rolls at the 24 team format. I loved it. Made for amazing upsets and a great tournament IMO

Hope to see them at the world cup next year

Agree, also overall pretty great refereeing. Have seen much worse in previous tournaments

Strange decision to bring on Sancho and Rashford at the very end for them to both miss. I have to think Henderson would have scored his, but it’s all moot discussion.
