what's the money on that being the only goal

I'm picking 4-1 England. 3-1 halftime.

Pretty happy with picking Shaw as *my" player early on in the tourney too.

Hang on, it was me that pointed out shaws amazing attacking qualities. At least that’s how I recall it not a word of a lie.

Very early goal to Shaw. England 1 Italy 0. 23 minutes gone now.

@billy-tell I already had his poster up by then pal.

What a fucking beauty

Like that Gareth Edwards try, it will be the clip shown 100,000 times.

Odd sort of game now. Italy seeing a lot of the ball, but creating very little and not testing the England defence terribly much. Their best chances have come from England errors.

Still 1-0.

Luke Shaw......lol @Billy-Tell

[Billy Tell]

Italy started out of sorts but beginning to dominate possession.

Eight out from half time, Italy the better side at the moment. Score still 1-0.

Haven’t looked like scoring

Italy have shifted their formation to match England's. Seen more of the ball but not really threatened Pickford's goal.

[MiketheSnow]

FFS England

Don’t sit on the lead, run them ragged

[MiketheSnow]

Rice is having a great game

[sparky]

Half time.

[MiketheSnow]

Someone has to have a go from the edge of the box to draw the Italian defenders out

[Billy Tell]

I find it hard to think my England can cling to a 1-0 lead with most of the game played in their half. Will be interesting to see southgates 2nd half tactics.

Looking a little more ominous though. England have to maintain their attacking footing, this could be a long half

Does football have rules about delaying tactics: 30s for a throw in, goalie taking forever etc?

Yes but they are quite generous to the team in possession.
