Round of 16: Colombia vs England

[dancing llama]

Not a single replay of the save or analysis of anything else from the whole second half and extra time apart from the penalty spot being scuffed up, good work ITV lol

I'm obviously no England fan but fair play to them for uncharacteristic mental strength.

Apart from 'Hendo' who anyone with a brain could have guessed would bottle it - I mean was there anyone on here who didn't know he'd miss? Fraud of a footballer.

Before he even stepped up to take it I knew he would miss it. To be honest I thought Dire Dier would miss as well but fair play to him, he managed to overcome his inadequacies for once in the game.

Still no replay of that save?!

 

[LinekersLegs]

Yes there was no James and we’ll probably mess it up somehow in the next round.

But made up to see us get even this far and delighted to finally see us win a shootout. Very happy for Pickford and Kane has amazing nerves.

England never beat Sweden.

Just saying.

we don't win penalty shoot outs, but we did today.
the records are pretty similar against each other normally a draw.

Just ignore the Arsenal jib.

He is a massive, massive helmet, that bloke

If the referee was worth his salt Columbia would have been down to at least 10 men for most of that match.

Fortunately football won in the end. However, it happens far to often this gamesmanship from some teams.

God those two saves get better and better after repeated views....

The more I watch the 35 yarder no doubt it's going on.

World class save.

@Mikey_Fitzgerald just reminded me we beat them in Euro 2012 too.

tbf, Dier's take was not good...but the scuff off the ground beat the GK.Him and the RS gurner should not be taking penalties. Why wasn't Vardy taking one?

Pickford is our best player and England's best player. The doubters should really give up football as they clearly don't have a clue. No drama though, I'm ship at knitting, can;t all understand the beautiful game like me.

 

[deipnosophist]

Sweden's going to be tough. I'm predicting another penalty shoot-out

 

[Zezti]

Columbia were lucky to end the match with a full team and all their coaching staff. The big cheating bellwhiffs got just deserts.

 

[arminisgod]

Made up for Pickford. Never a pen though. Didn't think VAR would turn football into that.
