There hasn't been much to convince me that anything is coming home other than the England players and fans so far.

Sadly thought this also. But England tend to be like this. Second half is always different and when the subs are made. The game can come alive for England. But France just look very dangerous.

Too good

[TheGrandAvatar]

Well. That's it. 

[Chris2K]

Woof. Rocketed into the corner. Definite foul on Saka though.

[Baddar]

Pick that out.

[Szumi]

That's was a humper of a strike. MAYBE if the English keeper had normal size arms it's still saved.

Pickford's arms just not long enough.

I'm just picturing a T-Rex Pickford.

This referee is going to annoy me. 

[Bobfoc]

It's a "WE WOZ ROBBED" moment. Now that can be the point of contention even if England lose 5-0.

[Captain Kirk]

Refs ruined that game already.

[Baddar]

Must have been outside as that was a definite foul 🤣

That’s one of the worst decisions I’ve seen in this Cup, and I don’t even want England to win.

It's not a penalty. It's a foul, yes, but it's outside the box. Referee didn't call a foul there, let play on. So I don't think he can go back and just mark it a foul. Penalty or nothing, similar to red card or nothing scenarios.

This ITV commentary is insufferable

Clearly got the ball. 

[TheGrandAvatar]

With any luck the half time team talk will help.

Everyone's busting out their trick play free kicks this round.

[Bobfoc]

Something England failed to do when they lost at the last two tournaments was maintain positive momentum when ahead. Now they're going to have to do the opposite and come from behind. Have they got it in them?
