England 0-0 Slovakia at 8’.

Slovakia just now missed a golden opportunity. England looks as if the entire team went to bed drunk at 3 am.

Tom added the tweet, not me.

Slovakia has three 35+ year old starters. If England doesn’t prevail here they won’t be able to go home.

GOALLLLLLLLLLL

England 0-1 Slovakia at 26’. Ugly.

England 0-1 Slovakia, half. The captions are incorporating words like “abysmal.” I probably was looking away when they read “dog shite.”

Wow, England very bad by any measurable standard. They played very hard and intently during stoppage time but off just enough to make the difference, no shots on goal that I noticed. Bad.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

England seems to have come alive. They nearly had one here, but offside was called by VAR (correctly):

 

[Tom McAndrew]

England lucky to have not paid a price for this sloppiness

 

[BobPSU92]

Southgate’s got this.

I’m not certain they ever made it to bed.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

England is doing everything but scoring in the last 15 minutes of the match

 

[Tom McAndrew]

OMG, England scores in stoppage time to tie it up.

 

[BobPSU92]

Just how Southgate strategeried it.

Hey Jude!!!!

 

[LionJim]

Yeah, quite a goal. Give Foden credit.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Harry Kane in extra time!!

2-1, England

 

[LaJollaCreek]

Kane!

 

[LionJim]

That’s soccer for you. Drama out the wazoo.

That’s soccer for you. Drama out the wazoo.

My only explanation is that someone informed the English team that there was plenty of space in that cemetery that Schalke built right outside of Veltins-Arena.

 

[LionJim]

2-1 is the final. Boy, a superb kick into the box for Slovakia as time wound down, couldn’t take advantage.

[Tom McAndrew]

hard to believe. Slovakia had this won, but got tired/sloppy at the very end of regulation, and now is going home.

[Tom McAndrew]

Casual fans probably won't appreciate the movement (of the ball, and by Spanish players off ball), to create this goal

 

[Tom McAndrew]

this is terrible D:

Well, he plays on every team

France in the 85th minute, to go up 1-0!!!!

They got lucky with the deflection, though they exhibited great patience and passing to set up the shot.

CR7 misses a pk. It smells like an upset is brewing
.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

a really weak PK call in extra time (IMHO), and phenomenal save by the GK against Ronaldo.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Tom McAndrew]

amazing performance by Portugal's GK in PKs
