The 4-0 thrashing of Austria on their turf was the warning that the potential was there imo, though obviously it matters less. Belgium probably didn't deserve three points against us, so that one went unnoticed too.

First time since 1992 that we've scored in a knockout match in the Euros and what a year that ended up being.

Qualification apparently never matters. England can score 2746 goals in a qualifying campaign, not concede one, and all you'll hear is "it was only qualifying against shit teams, who cares".

Disenheartenening when we DON'T make it (USA '94, Euro 2008) It's like when all the other kids get to go on the fun trip and your ass stuck in boring old school...

Congrats to Denmark. Thoroughly deserved that win. I had false hopes after the first 20 mins but Denmark switched it up.

Didn't like seeing our guys get petulant at the end, but that was not a red card.

Every team's got 2-3 guys who wouldn't look out of place in a top 5 league winning side or CL contending squad.

Rodon could have gotten a red earlier though.

He didn't intend to play the ball so it was a dangerous tackle, I'm assuming that's the reason, even if I believe a yellow was fine.

What's worse is took that as a W.

Look at the way our group games ended. Hard not to feel like it was a W.

Well theoretically Germany is the hardest match England could have in the knockouts (before the final). It would be a big opportunity if England won.

Unfortunately there is almost no chance so this is all theory.

Immobile did nothing wrong.

Not sure who on the England side can deliver the throughball from deep like Barella/Pogba can.
That's a key weapon if you want to hit Germany on the counter.
