Indeed - right from the opening match!

Re: Euros 2024
Did nobody else watch last night's game?
I thought England played at a very pedestrian pace in the first half, and were quite fortunate that Bellingham was fouled to give them a penalty, which meant scores were even at half-time.
Southgate must have put a rocket up their backsides in the dressing room, because they were a completely different team in the 2nd half.
I think German football must suit Captain Harry. I was noticing him all over the pitch last night, and not just scoring goals. He looked a much more complete centre-forward.

Re: Euros 2024
I only watched the highlights (8 minutes) and I thought England look somewhat shaky until the equaliser and then bossed the show. I suppose that against Italy it’s a pretty good result so let’s be hopeful for 2024 when you know what could happen!!!

Re: Euros 2024
A lack-lustre performance sees England beat Malta 2-0 last night, not the result you’d have expected against such lowly opponents. Only saw the high(lo)lights and not much to get excited about!!

Re: Euros 2024
You didn't miss much, it was pretty awful. Even allowing for the fact that Kane was denied a clear-cut penalty (and booked for diving! ) and Rice's goal was disallowed for a questionable 'interference' offside, it was very below par.Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Sat Nov 18, 2023 4:11 pm A lack-lustre performance sees England beat Malta 2-0 last night, not the result you’d have expected against such lowly opponents.

Oooooeerrr missus, yessssss, mmm, the lustre was very much lacking.
This is the way
Re: Euros 2024
I haven't even watched the highlights yet. I couldn't find an English speaking link, and when I had to be up very early this morning anyway, I didn't bother. Sounds as if not even worth bothering with the highlights.

Re: Euros 2024
I just watched EUFA's highlights. A couple of Malta near misses, the 2 England goals, the ridiculously disallowed one, the skippers booking and erm, well that was it really.

Re: Euros 2024
After seeing the score of 1-1 against North Macedonia, I couldn’t force myself to even watch the highlights (on the basis that the England goal was an own goal, I doubt that there were many). Oh well, not long before we can all start shouting “it’s ………………”
Re: Euros 2024
I opted for beauty sleep over the footie again. My son has watched the highlights, and based on his feedback, I won't bother.
Of course we know which way its coming, just Southgate playing it cute after early qualification. He doesn't want to give too much away. I think the England Rugby Team recently adopted a similar approach to the World Cup, and it almost worked.

The draw was briefly interrupted by 'porn noises' coming from someone's phone. The draw resumed and the rest of the evening ran smoothly. Apart from when the noise kept coming back.

Re: Euros 2024
Euro playoffs on tonight, Wales vs Finland. Winner will play Poland or Estonia. Can the Welsh make it to the Euros? Fingers crossed.
