Find it a little bit funny that everyone is moaning Italy diving then to win on an obvious dive. Sterling was going to ground long before there was any contact which was minimal. Not sure why that wasn’t overturned
Matched up the Danes formation. Smart way to kill the game. Danes are knackered and now it's all about 1v1 battles. Who's got the energy for the battle?
This clock is going to run quickly for Denmark now...
The pen was so bad Schmeichel couldn't get anything on the save to push it away, which is what allowed Kane to pounce on the rebound. Can't believe there are people saying it wasn't a pen though, proper hip-check on Sterling. Just because he invited it doesn't mean it wasn't a pen
Denmark‘a threat is their wing backs. If Southgate was a negative as everyone says he’s have started with a back 3 but he chose the preferred 433 and tried to impose our system on them. It largely worked, but now with the game as it is it makes good enough sense to have the insurance of an extra defender on there. Grealish got good minutes and contributed. No shame in him being subbed for tactical reasons.

You've answered your own question. There was contact so not a clear and obvious error.

But would have taken Shaw off for now
He'll be good

Big gamble from Southgate.
