Decent performance by Scotland.
Clearly vulnerable at the back and Tierneys tournament is over by the looks but they could even have nicked that.

The relief is incredible .
Because we are Scotland, we will of course lose to Hungry in the 98th minute .
The ball was originally heading towards the goal .Quote:

Just been listening to TV news.
England have already won the comp, others might as well go home now.
You think so? That's odd, because every single English pundit I've heard talking about the competition has expressed reservations, mostly about the team's defence but also about the manager's tactics and team selections.Quote:

Wrong Fred i think. should have been in worst commentator!!!Quote:

It did at first, then later in the game the commentator said it had been given to McTominay, which I thought was a strange decision.Quote:

Matched by an absolutely awful ball by walker. 2 to aim at and he whacked it straight into the defender In front of him. Tidy finish by kaneQuote:

Another stunning goal. Fantastic strike

Loving the pundits at half time. There's 1 full back with 0 quality, one fullback playing out of position . A centre back who can't defend to save his life, a central midfielder who can't play centre midfield, and 2 of their 3 attacking midfielders have hardly been in the game. Yet who do they target - Harry Kane. Unbelievable
Gary Lineker saying the quiet part out loud, this system doesn't work with Kane loping around up top like the hunchback of Notre Dame. Can't drop him because he's too good in front of goal so they are stuck.
Definitely agree that having AA in midfield is a problem, Rice is left basically babysitting him all game.Quote:

I don't really understand why Kane comes so deep. But there's still nothing stopping one of the midfield 3 holding a higher line and trying to get forwardQuote:
