EURO 2020 (2021 Edition)

Bah

Knew they'd score from that free kick.

Maguire is a cunt

Ukraine are just hopeless.

Anyway, it'll be all the funnier when they fall on their arses against Denmark.

luke shaw having a mare aye

Wembley tho', but it's better late than never for Eng to face an actually good team.

I actually think they'll win that too tbh

England will beat Denmark and I’d give then an even chance of beating either Italy or Spain. Quality of opposition taken into account but they’re on course for eleven games with one goal conceded. They’d struggle against a really creative side but idk if there are any left.

they kane, they shaw, they kyle walkered

Gary can have that for nowt

They are not beating Italy. No way.

The second most beautiful and poetic thing in football is English self loathing and I wonder if this national side is permanently destroying that.

Nothing is permanent xp

have you read this thread?

The English have never had self loathing when it comes to football. If only!

Cricket maybe, but football never.

I've seen auchinleck talbot teams better than this ukraine outfit

As far as Eng supporters are concerned this is the natural order of things

They are not renowned for their humility.

Disgraceful capitulation from UKR imo

Never seen a ref whistle dead on 90 minutes before

They didn't have much in the tank, and aren't much good anyway xp

What are they doing?

4 nil for Marxism

the properly braindead ingerlund stuff is far less embarrassing than tweeting that marxism is winning

that was horrendous.

england playing exciting soccer for a quarter of the time against a team that got here by luck of the draw really

if you think england can beat italy, you're dreaming, bud

sure, a western wealthy country beating a war torn + much poorer + slightly smaller Eastern European one is just pure fucking marxism

relax friends, I'm sure that in due course agent pickford will succeed in his mission to scupper these english dogs

What would actually happen is a snap election. https://t.co/OxQpq42NzM

Snap Scottish independence referendum.

The idea that England would snap into mourning mode rather than embracing an orgy of national sentimentality, as Elizabeth, seeing her beloved team victorious at last, knew she could safely pass on, leaving the country to a bright, bold future, etc, etc is hilarious. This is such a perfect time for her to die I wouldn’t blame them putting something in her tea.

Southgate to deliver the eulogy, followed by a ritual sacrifice of Boris Johnson to bring the rains again the following year to Qatar.

Elizabeth, seeing her beloved team victorious at last

What do you mean? Germany went out in the last round.

so, someone on fifa online just chose to play as england. i haven't seen this in a very long time; probably a year and it's not often. it's mostly barca, real madrid, and juventus.

weirdly enough, they tried playing this silly english catenaccio style. it was pretty suffocating.

"England will beat Denmark and I’d give then an even chance of beating either Italy or Spain."

Thinking of the last half hour at Baku probably fucked the Danish :-(

Yes, they looked knackered, whereas England had a practice kickabout against Auchinleck Talbot Ukraine.

Croatia had extra time and penalties in their quarters before they beat Eng at the wc, so hope I'm wrong.

Schedule's much tighter in this tournament though I think?

Four day gap as opposed to three here.

Also having to fly back from that well known European capital city of Baku.

4 hrs driving the (the wrong way) and you haven't seen a single car coming the other way in 40 minutes now, but the road signs... Well, they are getting --- weird. pic.twitter.com/Kaa92hmAIF

This is v sad but unfortunately a grain of truth to this.

Never going to begrudge anyone hating England or wishing they would lose, but I wish more people not from here would realise that this team is probably one of the most progressive institutions in English society, which is why it’s so funny that the newspapers *hate* them winning

I expect a few complaints to be winging Sky News' way after talking about "Brits from all over Europe" descending on Rome to support England.

Seems like a good time to remind everyone that Wales actually reached the semis of the last Euros and I don't remember that being treated like VE Day.
