    Man, have these guys even practiced taking penalties?

    It's a England hoodoo and a bit like NZ at the RWC for 27 years.

      Classic England:

      • home advantage
      • score after 2 minutes
      • do barely enough for the next 118 minutes
      • get an early advantage in the shoot-out
      • showboat like a clown
      • miss three out of five penalties

      Hopefully no rioting in London tonight...

      Rashford? He had an open goal and missed.

      The other missed penalties were down to good 'keeping

          I feel sorry for Southgate. He must hate penalty shootouts.

          I think he should have subbed Kane who had no influence whatsoever over 120 minutes

                Italia 1990. Was on a train from Bonn to Zurich listening to England /Germany on BBC World Service. German colleagues were incredibly gracious to my English workmates and got them well-pissed the following night.

                        You would think being paid millions to kick a ball that you could confidently hit the top corner 99% of the time, yet they usually go for the easier option.

                        Feel bad for the players who missed however regardless.

                          I don't get the dislike for penalties. It's excellent drama.

                                  Neesh should focus less on comedy and more on getting back in the Black Caps test team.

                                          Felt sorry for the young kid Saka at the end. The keepers are so insanely good at that level though, if they guess right they are odds on to save it.

                                          Rashford though, fuck at least get the shot on target...

                                          Agree with @KiwiMurph the drama is fantastic.
