England lucky to get away with a win there. Not very convincing at the moment, but since when has an England side ever been!

That sure had all the hall marks of watching the England mens team play

The bigger sides will walk all over them no attacking threat at all. BBC/ITV have all there mates in the studio and to scared criticise them.

They lost their playmaker (walsh) and do have 4 regular starters from the Eur's out with knee injuries, striker (mead), attacking midfielder (kirby) and 2 defenders (williamson and bright). It all adds up to what we've seen. They're playing neat football,, but haven't found the last little bit attacking and they nearly ended up with a draw.
But they're through so that's job doe, but I doubt anyone in the camp is too thrilled with how they did it.

I agree but disagree :lol: players they've lost through injury have been out for a while so can't really use that. Writing was on the wall in friendlies with the lack of goals. If England go a goal down they'll struggle IMO.

VAR has been fantastic so far but just missed a stone wall penalty for Haiti in the 98th minute.

That's the problem with VAR all the good stuff gets undone by one very poor decision. Haiti have every right to feel cheated by VAR there.

How are Italy 3-0 down. Controlling the game easily and they've absolutely capitulated.

Has the background crowd noise been dubbed on in these games? Certainly sounded pretty weird when I caught a bit on the news last night.

It feels as thought they timed the Jamaica match specially for me. :D

I wouldn't mind awaiting a corner kick with the Panama No.7's arm around me. :D

Under 1.5 market went up 8 ticks during half-time!

...and quickly back down again. I was happy to take my chances with that one. :)

Decent game to trade, plenty of money in the goal markets. Over/Under 3.5 market has 845k traded on it so far.

VAR gone to pot now another stone wall pen which the ref even looked at on screen not given. Ref wants sending home from the tournament for that decision.

That was a crazy match, I saw the opening half hour, missed the flurry of goals, rejoined it after about an hour of play then switched off a few mins before the 90th

Can't remember a match with so many goals and missing them all!
