    You wouldn't like the way I play football. You wouldn't get that on a Tuesday night.

    FFS. He had possession of the ball. He's allowed to protect it. The defender has come through the back of him. It's an egregious overturn.

    Congrats. You just outlawed ‘chasing the guy with the ball’.

    Kicking next. It's dangerous taking a shot in congested areas.

    Thats a relief.
    Can't say I've actually enjoyed any of the match. Just relief.

    We've found a way to take not our best parts, and be worse than the sum of our parts, and yet still be good enough.

    Not least because there are not many good sides in this tournament. Most of them would get bummed over a 'ship season.

    I see that the BBC correspondent gave harry Kane a six. Confident I could have got at least a five with the correct branding.

    Missed the winning goal as we were helping the in-laws and their young kids into the car. They thought they could make the 7 or so minute drive back to Mrs Rave's parents in time for penalties. Just as car doors were shutting we heard some yells ring out over the rooftops of the Castle Estate, mainly from the direction of the salubrious Quiet Woman pub.
    Rewound Sky to watch the goal. Forgot to fast forward subsequently. There's me sweating when the game was probably already over. I'm often behind, it's just a question of how much by.
    What the fuck did we do before being able to pause / rewind TV?
    I guess VCR it and and wear the tape to death rewinding over and over again.

    More clueless commentary. The most blatant case of ‘simulation’ you could hope to see and I’m being told it’s ‘controversial’. Jesus wept.

    The Djed thing was what Steven Gerrard got away with for donkeys' years. It was a nice try but looking for the pen.
    Red card for Embolism.

    No, I'm pretty sure that kicking through the back of the leg of the guy with the ball has been a foul for a long time.

    Think if Djed hadn’t wrapped his leg around the defender’s and just slowed a bit to get the contract, there’s a good chance he would still have got the pen and it would have stood. The massive step across just made it too obvious.

    Alfie posting some fairly bitter stuff about the referee on twitterx. Disallowed goal for the push was clearly warranted and if their winger had passed to his unmarked son in the first half, it probably wouldn’t have got that far.
