His partner just had a child didn't they? Flew back quickly bit like Delph.

Hopefully Delph's partner keeps pregnant for a couple of weeks

Ah, hadn't heard that. Would make sense.

Decent save from Olsen to keep it 1-0.

Ricardo Rodriguez with a masterclass in getting your crosses blocked.

Penalty to Sweden!

EDIT: Barely even a foul on second viewing, IMO.

 

[Tredman]

Game over. Shame both can't go out!

 

[Del Woppio]

Well done Fred!

 

[Freddeno]

YES

Bloody cynical point of view, that.

Whats happened to Rodriguez his game has gone down the toilet, not long back he was top quality.

Not really, would give England a bye if they win tonight.

Anyway i like to watch football, not boring ambling around.

 

[YoungWolf]

Was just outside to be fair.

Lawrenson spent two minutes saying it was outside and then criticised VAR??!

Well, he went to AC Milan which hasn't been a good thing for any player just recently.

Don't think you've understood the point there. Both sides are utter dreck and not worthy of a place in the later rounds.

"Would give England a bye if they win tonight"

Implying England would beat Sweden without batting an eyelash. But you still have to go out and do it.

 

[Jinky]

Congratulations Fred. Hopefully we do our bit tonight now!

And yet, there they are. This attitude absolutely does my head in. They could win the whole damn thing and you'd still say they're shit and didn't deserve it.

No, i meant if neither qualified... Which was kinda the point of my original post.
