Stop fecking diving Harry.

Harry is one of the worst cheating diving bassas.

Many many players of every Club in the World are fecking jessies and have ruined the Beautiful Game of Association Football.

The bookies see this as a tight game, as I do.

I, despite me thinking England were one of the favourites before the tournament, can't see them raising their game after playing so poorly throughout.

I see them very similar to the French, never got out of bottom gear and couldn't raise the standard to get past, or even really threaten, Spain last night.

As usual, an early goal for anyone please, that usually sees the game pick up.

Holland 1-1 England, half time.

Well, the terrible refereeing decision apart it's been much better than I expected.

The Dutch are dangerous on the break.

England have played better than in any of their previous games, Saka & Foden in particular along with both England full backs.

Both teams have hit the woodwork, a goal line clearance from Holland, all adds up to a pretty decent watch. 

Slight concern is the last 5-10 minutes started to look like a bit of a stalemate to me.

England employed an interesting new tactic that we could use this season - kick an opponent inside their penalty area and win a penalty kick. Terrific work from VAR  and the referee.

The early sparkle has, as it looked towards the end of the first half, gone.

Back to normal......................I'll be lucky to see extra time or penalties, falling asleep already. :snore

Spain will beat either of these two teams......................what's the odds?

Looks like Gareth has explained at half time the way he wants them to play.

I'm assuming he sent them out at the start of the game?

The Dutch have shored up the midfield and the game's gone to fcuk.

Suits the Dutch who are as dull as England, the odd break apart.

They only changed after NL scored and ignored him.

England are actually worse than anyone now for feigning injury they've mastered the art 

Foden just made the best England pass of the game and got subbed 10 seconds later :blink:

Aye, that brief 30-35 minutes was the most they've showed all tournament.

If anyone looks like scoring it's the Dutch on the break but they are Pass Back United most of the time.
