That doesn't make sense. Nowhere in rules does it say you can't stand still on a football field.

Watch it again. Welbeck's feet actually never stop moving. He's trying to take him out and does. Clear foul.

It might be different if Welbeck was trying to head it but he's just run under him and taken him out. I really don't get the uproar.

Painfully average. Love to know what Alli does to get in this side

Never a foul in a million years, De Gea made a right mess of it, you can't have Ref's protecting Keepers from their own poor play.
Spain were lucky, England more than matched them over the 90, comical set piece defending cost them.
how is it a foul, he's got two hands on the ball before the welbeck incident
only reason the ball gets loose is because of welbeck

Having someone step underneath of you in the air so you land sideways isn't poor keeper play mate. It's getting fouled.

Clear obstruction for me. If it is in the outfield it is a foul all day.

Two hands and totally out of control of his body, Welbeck did nothing wrong, De Gea's momentum took him over him and he spilled the ball, you can't ask players to step out the way for Keepers.

You're right players shouldn't have to move out of the way. The problem is Welbeck intentionally moved into the way. Which is why it was a foul. His momentum would have been fine if he didn't get flipped over.

It was a classic case of over protecting the Keeper when he's made an arse of it.
The way I see it, Spain ran rings round England for most of the game apart from England's goal which was a flash of brilliance. Spain's goals were preventable but weren't prevented. Dier sums up most England performances - dire. Henderson stands in the middle of the pitch passing the ball back to whoever passes it to him. Kane, tonight, only turned up to collect his gold boot. Delli Alli isn't as good as he and all his media fans think he is so he just turns up and does nothing of importance. On the plus side Trippier, Stones, Maguire and Pickford are worthy of selection. Rashford is okay, but needs to work on his shooting - the idea is to hit the back of the net, not the goalie. Lingard did what he does for ManU tonight, not a great amount, but he's a Warrington boy so gets a pass.
