    Not felt like that watching England since probably the Euros final a couple of years ago. Mexico completely dominated 90% of it.

    They’re a good side but they’re looking like prime Brazil and Raul Jimenez looks like Ronaldo Nazario.

    Great game so far
    I’d enjoy it more if I was a neutral!

    Once in a lifetime game this for them and they’ve done well to match the occasion. 

    I’ve watched most of the Mexico games so far. They look like a completely different team tonight.

    Watching these replays, Pickford has done well. 3 fantastic saves.

    I was at Croatia v Portugal which was a humdinger of a match with disallowed goals, end to end play and huge swings in momentum. Said at the time I was glad I could enjoy as a neutral. Now I’m on the receiving end!

    No idea what’s going to happen in this second half.

    I'd rather we be 5-0 up so I can go to bed happy now. But we'll see how the next half goes!

    Anthony Barry's half time interviews getting less insightful as the tournament goes on

    Bellingham great goals but lost his man for both their goal and then the one where he made the last gasp challenge

    Gonna be honest, never heard of Anthony Barry, but gotta say he comes over very well

    Strange how the game has changed from tippy tappy go nowhere football to just sling the ball into the box time is almost up football. Love it.

    You wouldn't go to bed leading 5-0 at half time, you'd kick yourself if you only saw half of our record scoreline.

    Feels like they’re playing against gravity. The ball just keeps coming back down that end of the pitch.

    I wonder if they’ll tell us how many TV licenses they’ve sold via the QR code at the end of the tournament?

    Just had two puffs of my inhaler. The altitude and smoke in the stadium getting to me.

    Would Dan Burn have been a decent choice for this game to counter Jiminez in the air?

    Konsa is nowhere near good enough.
