Yeah, I loved how we were happy to go first 'cause we avoided spain even though Italy are probably going to destoy us.
Still, we have a chance.
England vs. Italy... can't see it being a great match tbh

Was about to say. First time the english media play down englands chances, and they top the group lol. And everyone was saying france could win it.

What makes England winning the group funny is the poll results before the first match here at TL which put England as favourites to outright lose the group. :D

(Even though we're clearly not favourites in either matchup)
Also it will mean a probable semi against Germany instead of Portugal.....although we have a terrible history against both those teams in knockout stages anyway!

You gotta admit that watching ENGLAND playing like that against UKRAINE is sickening...It's like Brazil (who is also insanely bad right now) getting scared of Colombia or something
edit: I just realized its england vs italy. Great match for people with insomnia

Lol such a bad game by England. Lucky ass goal and major help by the refs

To be fair, England was the weaker team, nice performance and a bit of unluckiness by Ukraine

The linesman was so useless that he didn't notice that the Ukrainian player was offside, so that goal shouldn't have stood regardless of whether or not it was over the line. Justice is what I'd call that. Ukraine's earlier headed chance was also offside, but that wasn't called offside either. I don't understand how we can defend so well vs. France and then so badly vs. Sweden and Ukraine. It's as if the players get really lax against supposed "weaker" opposition. When we got the ball down and played it (happened occasionally) we looked okay, at least. Signs that the players are getting more used to this style of football. Even Gerrard managed not to hit too many long balls forwards. EDIT; WE'RE NOT GOING HOME! WE'RE NOT GOING HOME! WE'RE NOT GOING, WE'RE NOT GOING, WE'RE NOT GOING HOME!![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/F6ONW.jpg)
WE'RE NOT GOING HOME EITHER!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
wait.... oh.

There's one difference. Brazil was good for a few periods of time in the last 30-40 years. England has been nothing but hype.
