There's a bit in the Welsh anthem that is very similar to the "how wonderful life is" line from Your Song

I think Wales are through. They'll beat Iran to give them four points. England will beat USA and then a "sporting draw" against us to give them five points and second in the group

bloody furious
Tbh - its good its only the top 2 going through.. wasn't it the last Euros when half the 3rd place teams went through to knockout.. Made for a tedious group stage.

If England and USA play like they did today, then it'll be 4-0.

I disagree. I don't think USA will shutout England quite that badly...

Hey, was there anything made in the states about Zac Steffen being left out of the squad? He was number one a while back but then again English football has not been kind to him.I disagree. I don't think USA will shutout England quite that badly...

Take that I guess. This was a must not lose game. Still in it.
Can't see England losing to either of these tbh.

Only a small matter of the Atlantic ocean to navigateWhen my cousin worked in San Francisco she told her workmates she wasn't looking forward to the length of the flight back to England. They asked her why she didn't drive back instead.

Most Americans would probably be shocked that the I isn't pronounced the same way as it is in iPad. There's probably some that think iRan is an app.

Strange place to pick holes, but afaict the two named people involved in this are a journalists and a Welsh football official, so the idea of them boycotting might be moot.

Wear a plainer one over the top then remove it once inside the ground.
