1:15am and I'm just sitting here in almost disbelief. I have a BBC feed that was perfect until it died 2 minutes after the end of the game. I hope it's back for the 3am semi-final as I'm not sure how I'll cope with Japanese commentary (I'm on holiday there right now). I should go to bed but I'm still buzzing inside. At this rate I'll be watching Russia v Croatia!
Absolutely brilliant and it feels surreal to now be in the semi-finals after so many years of disappointment. 1966 and even 1990 are so mythical that I can't believe we are now in the same territory...
We finally showed we can be dangerous from open play. Feel like the team are growing at the right time. They're so composed and assured. Even when the game was over they looked relaxed and unsurprised. Unlike any England team I've ever seen. It's unreal. Well done boys.
Much prefer having bookings only wiped after the QF. More chance of getting a suspension, but means that you don't get brilliant players picking up yellow cards in the QF and SF and missing the biggest game of their career.
