Semi-Finals: Italy vs Spain | England vs Denmark

[André Dominguez]

Deserved victory for England, despite the poor VAR decision. Played a good game, but Denmark were not phisically well, the trip from Baku took it's toll.

Against Italy if you give Insigne the same space Denmark found on the first half, he will bend it over Pickford. I am almost sure Southgate will bring the back 5 again against Italy.

 

[2 man midfield]

Anyone else notice Sterling's calf is caught for the pen? He was going down, anyway though.

The ref did at least

 

[alexthelion]

Can Sterling really not see shit when he’s on the ball or does he just ignore wide open people?

Always has, always does.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Sunday is going to be wild and crazy

 

[2 man midfield]

There's an extra football on the pitch when they scored?

What is the rules anymore?

Yeah I was going to ask this. I forgot about it when the pen was given

 

[Carolina Red]

I do appreciate some Sweet Caroline

 

[The Firestarter]

Italia, italia, italia, fantastica!


Scandalous EURO.

Cry more.

 

[United Hobbit]

Am I just really boring or are these celebrations cringey as feck

 

[Spoony]

I wonder if the Danes will talk about the dive for the next 50 years.

 

[0le]

Whats with the singing and celebrations.

Er the team reached a final?

 

[Tomuś]

Outrageous and unnecessary.

Was rooting for Luke but feck that shit, Denmark didn't deserve to lose to THAT.

As said, looking forward to seeing how quickly it gets brushed under the carpet. Hypocrites.

Yeah, still sour after Lampard ghost goal but this will be belittled. The rest of the world will remember however

 

[Sly]

Think we can win it on Sunday

Of course you can. Italy isn't that impressive.

 

[0le]

Am I just really boring or are these celebrations cringey as feck

Nah you are being boring. Italy did exactly the same thing yesterday.

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

I wonder if the Danes will talk about the dive for the next 50 years.

The Irish Welsh and Scottish certainly will

 

[DickDastardly]

That's just blatant corruption by FIFA.

Can't believe this was given.

VAR?! The feck is that?

 

[DWelbz19]

THREE LIONS ON A SHIRT

 

[Buchan]

Think the referee is supposed to stop the game in that situation.

He whistled Denmark back to re-take a throw-in for this very thing in the second half of extra-time (ball came onto the field from the crowd just as Denmark were taking a throw) but missed it for England’s goal during open play?

 

[Cheech Wizard]

Will the game be shown on both BBC and ITV? Think I’ll watch on BBC if it is. Can’t be arsed with Matterface droning on he’s utterly dreadful. Tyldsley is missed.

 

[Nick7]

Anyone else notice Sterling's calf is caught for the pen? He was going down, anyway though.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think it should have been given, but I can understand why VAR would not overturn.

It is what it is but I think the ref should be looking at that on the screens. If he views it again and gives it fair enough.

 

[Tomuś]

I wonder if the Danes will talk about the dive for the next 50 years.

Given you'll be talking about Lampard's ghost goal in 50 years time still, why not Danes?

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Am I just really boring or are these celebrations cringey as feck

You’re boring.

 

[0le]

Cry more.

Careful mate, I literally got warned for saying stuff like that haha

 

[The Mitcher]

The Irish Welsh and Scottish certainly will

Let them cry, moan, seeth and cope. It's all good!

 

[giorno]

Shame! Shame! Shame!

 

[Redfrog]

Ya but just in the groups.

England legit played the whole tournament at wembley and even Italy played games at wembley.

England was clearly the host nation and they sprinkled some other venues for kicks.

Right, but it is something to Italy, Spain, Danemark to as they had an edge compared to some teams they played against. They were clearly less tired then most teams.

 

[Revan]

You mean corruption? I dunno if you can do it.

If it means bitterness then I'm not even Danish.

Will be Euro with and asteriks if you win it pal, no problem though.

No, it won't. You can go and find similar incidents in many of the previous champions. For example, Spain scored from an offside position in their 1-0 win against Portugal in 2010, does their world title come with an asterisk?

It was a dive and never a pen, but let's not exaggerate.

 

[Suedesi]

It's diving home...

 

[Widow]

Outrageous and unnecessary.

Was rooting for Luke but feck that shit, Denmark didn't deserve to lose to THAT.

As said, looking forward to seeing how quickly it gets brushed under the carpet. Hypocrites.

Feck off

 

[Lyng]

Having to finish extra time one man down was always going to end badly. Denmark was clearly tired after the Baku match and travel. Proud of the boys though. To get this far after the horrible start to the tournament is fantastic. Could see us get far in the WC

 

[padr81]

England was by far the better team and deserved to win. However, that was a dive. The referee should be banned from big competitions forever. Mistakes exist, but with VAR there is no need to make such big mistakes, just go and fecking check it.

The final would be interesting. I have Italy as slight favorites, but Wembley will give to England a huge boost. Nevertheless, the best two teams in the competition reached the final, which is something that doesn't happen very often.

People asked for low VAR approach this tournie with all the complaining and Uefa gave it. Blatant dive.

 

[edgecutter]

Given you'll be talking about Lampard's ghost goal in 50 years time still, why not Danes?

They still talk about maradonna

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Can't believe we're in a final we're England, this doesn't happen.

It just has. You better believe it.

 

[MoskvaRed]

A final at last! Dodgy penalty but deserved on balance given Denmark started playing for penalties after 60 minutes.

 

[André Dominguez]

wait till we play the Italians. The divers meet the fallers

Opera vs Shakespeare: full drama match

 

[Redlambs]

The salt all over this forum is hilarious. I love it

 

[Nick7]

Am I just really boring or are these celebrations cringey as feck

Yeah, you’re boring!

 

[FootballHQ]

Er the team reached a final?

No different to Italy the other night and they must've reached about 10 finals in laat 55 years, doing it at Wembley is extra special aswell.

 

[Melbourne Red]

It's diving home...

 

[DWelbz19]

That linguini loudpack is getting smoked on Sunday

 

[Spoony]

Given you'll be talking about Lampard's ghost goal in 50 years time still, why not Danes?

Heh, we still talk about the Hand of God.
