Sorry to say that was stupid of Southgate to put the responsibility of penalties on such young players who hadn't been involved in the game up until then.

Either way, just come on or played 90plus minutes, its one kick from 12 yards for someone who kicks a ball for a living. 

 

Just put your fuckïn laces through it! Stuttered run up n trying to be clever has effectively cost England the trophy. Rashford scores his and for me its a different story, less pressure on young uns after him n pickford saved enough to win it. 

 

Lesson from this, don't prïck about with penalties!

Rashford wants hanging for that penalty 

 

This is a guy whose played in the champions league, Europe league and over 150 league games

 

 

Awful penalty 


Possibly the worst penalty I’ve ever seen.

A bit harsh to criticise a manager who has been tactically astute in this tournament. Those players obviously wanted to take them. Why didn’t others put their hand up?

 

Who knows they didn't. Southgate should manage the situation better.

Absolutely gutted.  The best penalty was Maguire’s.  Picked his target and put his foot through it.  No fancy Dan stuff.  Too much pressure on Sako in the end.

 

The England team did well and when the dust settles should be proud of their achievement......but at the end of the day sport is about the winning.

Big mistake with the penalty taking selection. It’s not just about who is technically good. Rashford and Sancho have hardly kicked a ball this tournament. It’s as much about mentality and psychology. 

 

Exactly right. They had no feel for this game or atmosphere. They were completely cold.

 

As for Saka being kicker 5. He's barely played international football. Not mature enough to handle this pressure

Disappointing obviously but the best team won. 

 

Commiserations England.

Congratulations Italy

 

And congratulations to Scotland too as well. They'll love it more than Italy.

 

And the Irish. They will be loving it too. 

 

Until August when they all start pretending they are from Manchester and Liverpool again
