UEFA should suspend and fine players for continuesly diving and rolling around. This is ridiculous.

As much as I'd like to make some funny comments about that, in a game like this stats mean even less than usual. With a goal 2 minutes in, it's pretty expected the leading team would sit deep in defense and have much less possession / shots.


Yeah normally but in the game Denmark vs England people here were saying theses stats matter so much.


Sure, but those people were told the same thing -- stats don't mean shit. Just because delusional England fans think higher possession means you 'deserve' a free penalty and a win doesn't make it true.

Who says that though? Well ok I’m sure plenty of people have.

Wasn’t a penalty but on balance England were better than Denmark that night


You know how to to tell which team is better? Goals ... England didnt score except that huge gift by UEFA referees.

I guess Italy should stop trying to build chances around the box and just run in and dive instead, then? Being the better team, and all.

Sterling is just preparing for his after-football career when he will be a professional diver!

The irony is that in one of his dives - if he didn't fell down it would have been a penalty. But because he was almost on the ground already... well, you can't give another penalty like this xD

God dammit, way to naive from England to just come out second half and try to "ride it out and counter" so silly and they got punished for it. The change of systems showed a little bit for them and they got back on the ball a bit but still not anywhere near England's best and i think the occasion is getting to them.

Need someone to step up big time now!

Who would have thought that being 90 minutes behind the ball is a bad strategy

Btw, Pen games so far this Euro:

France lost to Switzerland in Ro16
Switzerland lost to Spain in quarter finals
Spain lost to Italy in Semis

Italy should avoid pens at all costs... :D

Probably not, but the salty boys are in full force here... I will welcome the Euros being over just for the sake of sanity in this thread.

What are you talking about?

I don’t think it was a penalty, I’d prefer if it hadn’t of been awarded. I’ve said that on this thread, others have said this on this thread.

Were England better than Denmark on the night? Yes they were, Denmark looked absolutely shattered in extra time and England’s squad depth let them sub a player of the quality of Grealish on and off.

Maybe without that Denmark take it to penalties and win, and fair enough, as I said I don’t think it was a penalty. But were they the better team on the night and were robbed? Well no not really.

Except for some reason in this thread the framing is ‘England fans don’t give a fuck about a dodgy penalty’ despite evidence very much to the contrary.

Intriguing period of extra time inc
