[Football] Spain vs England

[Mellotron]

One can only beat what’s in front of you. And England seem to do well against Spain in friendlies. I think they won 1-0 at Wembley a few years back. I imagine Spain will be a different beast in a competitive game though.

Childish. Guessing you didn’t see it? Those Spain players and manager couldn’t have been taking the game any more seriously.

Superb performance, fully deserved result. Enjoy it.

They could and should have been 2 up before we scored, second half they should have had at least 4. That's football.

Pleased we won but our defence including the keeper worries me when we have the ball, looks like an accident waiting to happen.

By that logic we also should’ve had a penalty for Sterling being trod on when through on goal, Ramos should’ve been sent off for leading with elbow, plenty of second yellows.

We were SUPERB. We were always gonna have to weather a storm second half against one of the top sides in the world. We did so. Enjoy this result, it’s historic.

Apart from one major error Pickford was superb on the ball all night, he created one of the goals FFS.

Ignore the plastic kraut - that was 100% a competitive match just like a World Cup. Absolutely sublime first half performance and STUNNING result from such a young team. Well done lads.

No I didn’t watch it; I had to choose some bathroom basins and a vanity unit tonight.

What, like the World Cup?

Spain have been in great form since the the summer. We played a lot of lovely football in the first half. 3 fantastic goals. Very promising for the future - this is a very different England to the England of old.

Feel sorry for him tbh. See my signature.

And your point?

England were very very lucky tonight

You’re a class A ****. Shit fan.

I get what you are saying but we could easily have gone 4-0 up before they got their first.

Seville is such a lovely place doesn't need tw*ts kicking off.

Great city...my second favourite i Spain after Bilbao. Get the tw@ts on video and ban them from ever leaving their street for 5 years. That'l sort them out.

Not withstanding all that, it was great performance tonight.

No it wasn’t. Besides, I was actually criticising the other poster, I wasn’t criticising England.

I didn't realise people were still playing the 'look at me I didn't bother watching England' game

 

[Sheebo]

No point if he’s not going to get on the pitch. Rather he trained with us.

Moan moan moan - ridiculous thing to say too - Lewis will be better for the experience. Surprised you showed your face again on this thread, there’s so much egg on it!

and a vanity unit tonight.

Ummm

That very clear pen would've made it Spain down to 10 men (not a challenge for the ball) and possibly 0-4.

Spain took this incredibly seriously, came out of the blocks on fire, fouling, arguing with the ref, snide challenges.

Undone by great counter attacking.

I even did the joke on this very thread yet still someone did it

Did you see the Spanish players reaction at the end? This was NOT a friendly on paper or in reality.

 

[Milano]

Southgate is full of shit, like a long line of England managers before him. They have weeks and weeks of being a football tourist then a couple of weeks in the spotlight so have a long time to dream up drivel.

Thanks for that. Shit fan, no I'm not a fan. I'm English so follow their games but I'm a fan of one team only. Brighton are the only one important to me.

 

[Mellotron]

Spain had 5 shots on target. Yet deserved to score at least 6 apparently.
