England v Italy - THE FINAL - Match Thread

North Lower Neil

Saka honestly?  He's about 12.  Why?  Huge pressure.

Laddick01

Probably the worst pens I’ve ever seen

golfaddick

Young kids cant hack it.

Need experienced pros to take penalties 

philcafc

3 awful penalties I'm afraid, got what we deserved in the end.

NapaAddick

Hate to say it but the better team won. When England stopped attacking after 20 min they let it slip away.

Croydon

Useless. Fucking useless

Laddick01

Sancho on?!?


that was ducking g criminal. I’ve never had less faith in a Penalty taker.

better team won indeed

Fucking stupid substitutions. 

Why would you give a penalty to 2 players with 2 minutes of game time? and the deciding penalty to a 19 year old? 

Fucking brainless. 

ForeverAddickted

Show some class here fellas!!

Talal

Should never have put that pressure on the kid. Where was Grealish? 

iainment

I’m still proud of this England. Let’s win the World Cup. 

Come on England!

It’s the hope that kills ya … No blame attached to Rashford, Sancho or Sako. It is what it is 

Laddick01

Literally  fucking bottled it with those subs. Inexperience. Inexperience.

soapboxsam

I feel sick.

19 year old saka, great bollocks mate and certainly not his fault.

Taking penalties all the time my arse. You bottlejobs 

Quite.

All those stuttering run ups should be trained out of them.

Did they really train those  ??

Saka didn't look up to the occasion since he came on. I can't believe you would give him a penalty. 

RodneyCharltonTrotta

Well done italy.

England did bloody brilliant this tournament and we should be bloody proud.

Dazzler21

Heartache of 96?! 

No this was in the bag until Saka was put on. Feel awful for him.

That hurt.

Grealish, Sterling, Shaw?

Never should have gone to Saka.

Laddick01

Honesty that’s the worst pen line up I’ve ever seen. I’d rather fucking Pickford had one than Sancho. Serial bottler.

North Lower Neil

Poor pens, Saka and Sancho's were basically exactly the type of pen a keeper loves.

Laddick01

Yeah what the fuck was that. Use experience. Feel bad for Saka and Sancho.

they shouldn’t be in that situation.

North Lower Neil

Unlucky Pickford, did his job well.

killerandflash

Southgate made the call to bring on 2 cold subs to take penalties, and they missed so some of that falls on him

Baffled why Sterling stayed on if he wasn’t one of the 5

ForeverAddickted

Least those five had the bottle to step up and take a penalty

You lot talk about the experienced pros... Ask yourself where they were hiding... classless twats

Croydon

3 out of 5 pens missed. 2 players brought on to take them, both take shit ones.

100% agree.

2 penalty misses by players who had hardly kicked the ball & were not "with it".
