[Football] Eng-Ger-Land v Italy tonight

[Mellotron]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE play with pace at the World Cup. The only way that suits our set of players.

stones is woeful tonight

Good goal. Parolo should be off really. He has made two tactical fouls whilst we have broken (though actually three as he made two in that last break), but lucky for him the ref has played the advantage both times then forgot to book him.

The refs are always a lot more lenient in friendlies.

England do look better when they quicken the tempo. Good thinking from Lingard to take the quick free kick.

Clever play from Lingard and the ref. Nice to see.

Did Young just get clobbered on the back of the head just then

Started that way...rest of the game ok imho

 

[LamieRobertson]

Did Young just get clobbered on the back of the head just then

I think he just got his own back

I think he just got his revenge

Zero atmosphere on the telly

Yes, agreed. Young lucky not to be at least booked for that foul just now, too. Not sure it should be that way though, FIFA rankings do actually matter to some extent.

England could really do with a defensive midfielder who can play a decent pass. Thought they were decent enough going forward, defensively not great. We look like we at least won't totally embarrass ourselves in the World Cup.

Spain v Argentina during the HT break.....2/0 so far to the Spanish...all on a different level

 

[pauli cee]

Raheem Sterling has surprisingly gone up in my estimations for not feeling the need to put a hand over his mouth whilst talking to Stones....

Dead. The England fans in the Amsterdam Arena made far more noise. The New Wembley factor?

 

[ExmouthExile]

Better atmosphere in the cemetery!

England almost always look good in qualifiers and home friendlies. Who knows if they'll morph back into tournament England in Russia.

 

[timbha]

Well I think we’re doing alright
