An incredibly stupid thing to do from Walker. Look very dangerous going forward. Played some great creative football with real pace. Poor finishing but no way we'll miss that many in the 2nd half. Be reyt, we'll win this.

If you find it funny or aren't bothered then do me a favour and **** right off

England playing some good stuff but the finishing is woefully poor. For us to advance we will have to finish

Maguire and Young out together on the left, both totally right-footed, what a weakness?

However, my opinion (and it's only my opinion!) is that we've been excellent. I know we've missed a few very good chances but there have been some top saves to deny us too. Let's see what the 2nd half brings but I'm pretty happy with what I've seen minus the silliness from Walker.

and my opinion was we haven't been excellent and you threw your toys out of the pram, why am I not allowed an opinion without being called a 12 year old but you are?

More clueless comments from the usual suspects
England playing well apart from finishing

Stones best of the 3

I have Tripps as our best player so far.

England looking very promising

We will but England are only playing Tunisia.

2 penalty decisions wrong, what is the point of VAR?
I'm sure the commentator said the referee has been told to look at the Kane one yet he didn't stop the game and look at the screen.

Get Vardy on for Lingard, for goodness sake.

England have been the most interesting, attacking team I have seen so far this World Cup (minus Russia who don’t count)

Your replies have been childish:

Wow we controlled the game against Tunisia, must be really amazing"

and

"Cheers Glen Hoddle"
(made me chuckle to be fair)

1) didn't know you were allowed to rugby tackle players. Outrageous decision not to give a penalty.

2) Maguire is gash.

3) Our finishing is gash.

For Sterling, Sterling just doesn't have adequate amounts of brain cells to cope with international, tournament football.

Have to love all the England fans moaning about the wrestling on Kane... but no-one mentions that Stones shoves a defender in the back in the same shot...

Lauren12 · Post by **Lauren12** » Mon Jun 18, 2018 8:02 pm

Fantastic rugby tackle on Kane, the ref 10 metres away and the VAR people surprisingly didn't see it.

Thought we played some good stuff and should have scored 2 or 3. Oh well.

Goalposts · Post by **Goalposts** » Mon Jun 18, 2018 8:02 pm

other than trips the back three not playing ball forward qk enough too many sideways passes,

good movement up front , but finishing of sterling and lingard leaves a lot to be desired

We will get a penalty.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Mon Jun 18, 2018 8:10 pm

We should have had another penalty then. Kane wrestled to the ground (and I'm usually all for the physicality of the game).

Tarkowski missing this tournament might be a blessing in disguise for him,surely he will be a contender for the first international break injury permitting.

The reffing and var have been excellent until this match.
We’ve now had two early flags for offside and the last one saved Pickfords bacon.
How can they give a pen against Walker and not the two grapples on Kane? Madness.
