What about the multiple examples of simulation from Kane and Sterling throughout the game?

It was really bad defending by Chiellini before the drag back mind, should have been an easy ball to deal with

Younger players are generally better in penalty shoot outs statistically speaking

Have to say I disagree with people who are saying Italy were "slightly" the better team last night. Thought it was emphatic how much better they were

Donnarumma Walker Bonucci Stones Spinnazzola Jorginho Busquets Pedri Sterling Schick Chiesa

First 20 definitely. Then England let them have the ball and retreated. England were comfortable in the first half though aye without showing much. From then until maybe the second half of extra time it was complete dominance

I get that penalties are a tough way to lose the game but it would have been a travesty if Italy didn't win based on the preceding 120 minutes. A bit like the Pirlo game in Euro 2012 in that regard

Southgate definitely wouldn't have brought him on even if available

Would be so much more hassle to play for Jamaica

Why is Alex Horne dressed up like Jimmy Saville for this Crouch thing?

Kane looked like he could hardly move after the first half

Really poor tournament just when he was starting to prove people wrong at Chelsea

If Donnarumma keeps it up he could end up being one of the best keepers ever

Where are you from btw Beren? Assumed you were English until this tournament

SSN have sent that Kaveh bloke out to Rome

Southgate's best trait is getting on the easy side of draws

Was thinking when he saved Jorginho's pen that he's impossible to psych out because he's so thick

England were bloody awful throughout football wise

Hard luck lads

I was similarly shocked but think she was English

Mad that the best looking woman in England just happened to be at the match

Not sure you'll get there but no team has ever won 2 penalty shoot outs in the same tournament

Advantage is such a bad rule in football, only lasts about a second before the advantage is over

Well Locatelli scored one of the goals of the tournament for a start
