Colombia vs England (R16) - 19:00 - 03/07/2018

[blairsh]

Yes!

 

[tommers]

Never in doubt.

 

[imposs1904]

England deserve it. At least they're trying to play.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Kane bought that penalty, as others have been doing throughout the tournament, but fuck it, I'll take it.

 

[Plumdaff]

Get in. Deserved.

 

[Spymaster]

Right in front of the referee!

DICKHEAD!

Come on HARRY!

 

[campanula]

christ wake up

Kane bought that penalty, as others have been doing throughout the tournament, but fuck it, I'll take it.

What utter nonsense. He was being wrestled

 

[steveo87]

ITS COMING HOME!!!

 

[Badgers]

It's coming home

 

[1927]

England aren’t squeaky clean in the cheating stakes! Ref should have learnt from his first half mistake and sent Henderson off!

 

[Buddy Bradley]

I don't get it - why is every team we play going with the "blatantly wrestle Kane to the floor right in front of the referee" strategy this year? I don't remember that ever being a thing in previous international competitions. Are other teams doing it to each other too (I've only seen England games so far)?

I think he committed the first foul!

 

[campanula]

need another

The bloke piggy backed him!

 

[editor]

It's coming home

Don't start that nonsense, please. Besides 'home' would be where the cup has resided the longest and that's definitely not England

 

[1927]

What utter nonsense. He was being wrestled

He was wrestling first!

 

[Lord Camomile]

What utter nonsense. He was being wrestled

He initiated it. Sanchez wasn't actually holding him for most of it.

 

[planetgeli]

Just keep attacking. Keep the ball away from Falcao (class is permanent) and they’ve got nothing in attack.

 

[not-bono-ever]

DO IT FOR MEGAN HARRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Basically they haven't got used to the fact that somebody is watching replays all the time. They've always done it, they're just getting caught now.

 

[belboid]

Leama subbed before he’s sent off

Feed me till I want no more

 

[Lord Camomile]

The bloke piggy backed him!

Yeah, in the end. Like I say, Kane bought it. Not saying it wasn't a foul, but strikers know they can draw defenders into it in this tournament.

Do penalties count for this?

 

[paulhackett]

Katie Boulter won too x

Thought for a moment you said Katie Boyle. Better than these two shitshow commentators

 

[Plumdaff]

Bacca should be no 2 in a sensible world.

 

[Steel Icarus]

why is kane captain ?

Consummate profesh, leads by example, never says anything lively in interviews, best player

Oh, and balls of steel

 

[TruXta]

I can see a role for Vardy if the score stays like this. Colombia need to take risks and room will open up.

I think Uruguay - winners of the first World Cup - have a chance of bringing the trophy home. England can do what they like with the ball.,
