England v Croatia 13.06.21 2pm ko

[Badgers]

They’ve started well, haven’t they?!

Well?

Should be two up

 

[Lord Camomile]

Gah, you've got to play a better ball to Mount than that, Phil, I need him to get me some fantasy football points

 

[campanula]

England looking quite perky

 

[two sheds]

Has Kane touched the ball yet?

Didn't he kick off?

 

[Steel Icarus]

Didn't he kick off?

Nice touch to Foden a couple of minutes ago

 

[Sasaferrato]

It's warm but overcast here. I demand sunshine and overheating ffs

It's 24°C in the computer room, with a through draught.

Has Kane touched the ball yet?

Forgot he was on the pitch

RED CARD

 

[Dandred]

How many twats booed?

 

[Badgers]

How many twats booed?

11

 

[not-bono-ever]

They’re gonna be shattered at half time at this rate

 

[Dandred]

11

That few?

 

[Badgers]

That few?

Unless a couple had very small voices

 

[Lord Camomile]

They’re gonna be shattered at half time at this rate

Not the ones in the shade

 

[SpookyFrank]

Where the fuck was Kane then?

 

[Badgers]

Joking aside this is great movement and excellent shooting/dribbling.

 

[campanula]

nice measured play here...Croatia a bit witless

 

[SpookyFrank]

Joking aside this is great movement and excellent shooting/dribbling.

The Mount/Sterling axis looks particularly good.

 

[Badgers]

Modric is a great player. Really quick amazing feet but at 36 he is not quick enough to hold possession.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Not quite Sterling's forte, tbf

 

[Steel Icarus]

Bit boring at the moment tbh

 

[two sheds]

Lovely couple of touches from Foden so far

 

[JimW]

Great control from Foden, first time at least.

 

[Badgers]

Bit boring at the moment tbh

At least the defence is looking calm

 

[Badgers]

Lovely couple of touches from Foden so far

You almost want to take Kane out and put Sancho in alongside Foden and Sterling

 

[brogdale]

Bit boring at the moment tbh

Time for a stat, then?

 

[planetgeli]

At least the defence is looking calm

Don't say things like that

 

[Lord Camomile]

At least the defence is looking calm

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis it?

It is feeling a bit Italy v Turkey; hopefully it'll end up in similar fashion too (with England still playing the role of Italy, obviously )

 

[The39thStep]

Bit boring at the moment tbhAntonio would agree

 

[two sheds]

Couple of uneasy moments from them trying to play their way out of defence though.
