Up until a minute before the first goal, I was thinking we are in for the usual long haul to inevitable death. I did notice England consistently had more pace to out run the Germans, who were looking old and tired.. German frustration was growing. As soon as Kane gave up his useless chance for glory and passed it, suddenly things switched, and started to play like a team that wants to win it, as side of that usual heart stopping inevitable wobble of defence a minute later, they actually deserved it from then on. I still remember England clutching onto that 1-0 against Argentina in 2002 with total desperation from half time , and managing to lose 2-1 to France, despite being 1-0 at 90 minutes in 2004, so tonight was positively memorable, 2-0 against Germany is respectable, even if it was the end of a German era… Tonight we are drinking in the elite’s bar, but it appears most of the elite boys are no longer there… this contest reminds me of 2004 a little bit.

cary hill Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 So England get to play against the enigmatic but energetic Ukrainians in the QFs. I would have preferred the stolid rigid Swedes (it would have been easier for Southgate's negative match strategies) but I suppose playing the Ukraine means that perhaps we won't get another predictable dull match. Mind you if England want to win the match they may have to muster more shots than the measly five they have managed in each of the last two matches - one shot every eighteen minutes - pathetic really and just shows how poor the Germans were today to concede two goals from five shots. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Alex TM Posted June 29, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) Hi folks, I watched both of today's games, but it was the later one that confused me a little. Both Sweden and Ukraine seemed to be playing in IKEA colours. Regards, Alex. Edited June 29, 2021 by Alex TM 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sb67 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 England, southgate and Raheem Ster!ing are defying all the critics at the moment, cannot fault them , havent lost or conceded a goal yet.Despite my frustration at another defensively minded line up Gareth played his cards perfectly! I was suprised at how poor the Germans were, lacked any urgency or idea. We had a bit of luck with Muller missing but a lot of that was Jordan Pickford coming of his line. I do feel we haven't really been tested yet though, I'm looking forward to seeing us play against a team that presses with pace and purpose. Fantastic result, should beat Ukraine, we've beaten Czechs once, Denmark would be tough but could it really be coming home! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh what a difference a week makes… https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-57699000 Germanys not so scared of us any more, doesnt care about the Euros. lets see Italys reaction to fans coming to London, assuming they get past Belgium… Wont they have to follow our rules, which I understand for all of Europe are… On arrival in England you must: quarantine at home or in the place you are staying for 10 days take a COVID-19 test on or before day 2 and on or after day 8 https://www.gov.uk/guidance/red-amber-and-green-list-rules-for-entering-england#amber-list or does this rule only apply to British ?

I hope we win, playing some attractive football. But I would take 1-0 with one shot on target if it helps. cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
