two endlessly optimistic teens helps

Close again

Don’t think many people saw that coming

Congo are so dangerous.

I feel it’s coming 🙈 an England goal is coming

You’d think we’d have learned from the Ghana game. Obvs not

Phew!

wtf? VAR?

That was a penalty

The ref isn’t on our side is he !

Absolutely

Anyone remember Linekars penalties against Cameroon at Italia 90? They were less than this was I’m sure!

DRC have 12 players

Aah ok!

I somehow thought the KO was at 5.30, switched it on, and England 1-0 down, and DRC just missed a sitter.

Goalie of the tournament!

Yes! He is brilliant

Yep, he’s France born, came up through PSG youth team.

Agreed - he is fab.

I don't think that was a penalty tbh.

They're going to lose, aren't they 😬

C'mon England!

Or win

🤞😁

No, we’re winning this!!
