As a Scotland fan I'm gutted for England. Don't think a kid should have had to take the last penalty, bad call by Southgate.

WheresMySnackPack · 11/07/2021 23:04

Ah, man.

Italy played so dirty. Our boys did well!

@MrsGulDukat

As for fucking Southgate.

Who dumps that kind of pressure on a 19 year old?

Yes exactly what I thought.

My som will at some point now be making way home across London -am feeling nervous about that….

@Ostryga

Not when we've already missed and we really needed a goal.

Blowingagale · 11/07/2021 23:05

England did really well, penalties are a gamble.

I foresee criticism of Southgate not giving two players game time and leaving the youngest for the last penalty.

Get him to share his location with you.

I really wish Italy had played a cleaner game, they were fouling left right and centre.
You seem surprised, they have a long record for it, ask other countries too.

It's absolutely pouring with rain here so that will hopefully stem some of the trouble when the pubs chuck out.
We got way, way further than I expected so that's something. Thanks for the company, everyone!

Absolutely!

Pickford has been great, very proud of our number 1 💙

I hope he gets home safe .
ReginaaPhalange · 11/07/2021 23:06

I've been cheering England on from here in Scotland. Gutted for you :(

England done so incredibly well to get to the finals and should be bloody proud!

BrozTito · 11/07/2021 23:07

Sakas good enough, I understand exactly why he was put on. If hes too young to handle it he wouldnt be there

JacquelineCarlyle · 11/07/2021 23:07

Pickford did so well.

TeddingtonTrashbag · 11/07/2021 23:07

Thanks so much everyone- with no TV here am so grateful for the commentary Flowers

Yes my thoughts exactly.

I said to DP you could see the disappoint in Rashford's face. No one will be as disappointed as him. His face Sad.

Waitrosedisaster · 11/07/2021 23:08

Some of those England penalties were awful. Too much showing off and silly tactics. You could see some were going to be misses before they even kicked the ball

Yes, Southgate will know his capabilities, its not like he was picked from obscurity to randomly take the final shot Confused

Disappointment*

FlyingBattie · 11/07/2021 23:08

I'm raging at the BBC right now.
Watching on iPlayer, which is a little bit behind live TV- unfortunately before I get to see the final kick, the BBC breaking news alert on the iPad spoilt the result for me!

ReginaaPhalange · 11/07/2021 23:08

I hope Saka isn't too hard on himself. Southgate had the confidence in his ability and anyone of the team could have missed the penalty. Poor kid - he done well under the pressure!

DuchessDarty · 11/07/2021 23:08

Saka played really well during the rest of the tournament though, and at times during this game. That will hopefully have bought him a lot of credit with fans and the media to lessen any backlash against him?

In contrast, Sancho is also young (although older at 21) and inexperienced, only came on for 2mins and hasn't played that much during the tournament. If he was last, he may well have got a bigger backlash. My step DC was at school with Sancho, he was a great kid.
