    Apparently they're going to be broadcasting it at the O2, there's going to be a ballot for tickets tomorrow morning.

    Why not just watch it for free down your local pub?

    Just watching the Highlights now, and still havent seen the Semi-Automatic Offside for that Saka goal, Walker still looks so very tight

    Probably the only offside decision I've seen this Tournament, where we've not been shown the call - Unless I'm looking at it narrow minded in that regard.

    I thought we only got to the Euros final last time because we played on home soil and only went up against rubbish teams. For all Southgate hasn’t had his best tournament initially this time round, our struggles have informed our improvement and we’re where we are because of them. Settling on Mainoo in the middle, switching to a fluid 3421, finding a way to get the best out of Saka, Foden and Bellingham and easing Shaw back into contention. These are all things Southgate has done on the fly and he deserves a huge amount of credit for finding the balance just when it mattered most. Roll on Spain

    Haha! Pissed up girl dropping the f-bomb on bbc news before telling us all to back off Southgate.
    😂
    Fiona Bruce should know better  ;)

    How good was that? 

    Not celebrated a non-Charlton goal like that for a long time.

    was with about a dozen mates out watching it. Absolutely buzzing but a little gutted I wasn’t with my kids at the time. These are potentially historic moments. 

    Let’s deliver Sunday. I really think we will

    Southgate an utter genius. We will win this 2-1. Mark my words.

    Called it when I saw the team.

    Dutch going mad about the penalty. It was a foul anywhere else on the pitch. We must see that every week. Harsh pen but 100% a foul.

    It’s one of those that you’d want it for you but be gutted to concede it

    they only replayed the shot/foul during the match but it looked like handball by saka in the build up

    Devastating for them it was the last kick of the game that penalty and.no chance to come back, apart from the fact it was 1-1 with 70 mins left the tulip munching clog shaggere

    I think it was a ridiculous penalty, but won’t complain

    And joint top scorer at the current tournament. Not bad for player who should apparently be dropped.

    Rewatched the foul on Kane again. Not only did Dumfries challenge for the ball studs up, he also had two feet off the ground while doing it…

    I agree with @Chunes the penalty would be given as a foul 90% of the time anywhere outside the box, and no one would argue with it.

    Bye to the final complete  (ok Dutch we’re a bit of a challenge) now our first real test against a team where we are under dogs .
    we played well against the Dutch but we deffo will need to play better to beat the Spanish and I reckon we have it in us .
    we’ve never beaten a team in the knockout stages in The Euros or World Cup when we have been The under dogs since I’ve been watching football nearly 50 years .

    25% England win in 90 mins 
    27% Spain win in 90 mins
    8%  England win in ET
    7% Spain win in ET
    19% England win on pens
    14% Spain win on pens

    Am sure any Dutch Fans watching the England bench celebrating the winner will be overjoyed with Hasselbaink going nuts!
    He will apologise 😬

    The only way to beat Spain will be to hit them with pace .  Must play Gordon and Watkins up front, bring Shaw in and decide between Bellingham and Foden.

    I don’t get all the controversy on the penalty. He missed the ball and made contact with his studs on Kanes foot. Anywhere else on the pitch that’s a foul.

    Yeah same with the comments (don't think anyone has said it on here), that it was Kane who kicked Dumfries... the latter took the risk to go in for a challenge, didn't get the ball and was penalised for it.

    Bellingham slid in for a challenge, by having his legs under him, and the contact was him being kicked by the Dutch player - Jude was wrong got booked, and they got the foul.

    Realistically... What was the difference?
