Guys, it’s completely nonsensical thinking that past generations having lost on penalties means this one will lose too.

Ospina is crap at saving penalties while Pickford is great at it. There’s absolutely no way England lose this
it's ingrained the the national psyche.

Not sure Rash should take one....imagine if he missed, never hear the end of it

How are u English guys feeling about penalty. Why do you like going home like that so much?
Almost the entirety of the UK has now basically decided that we're out....including me.

Though at some point, if we're ever going to win an international competition, we'll need to win a shootout. Hopefully this is it today.

5 out of 30 is hardly great.

I reckon England have the better 5 but they're really not in the right mindset for it. Total toss-up here
For Colombia imagine it will be Falcao, Cuadrado (would be surprised if he scored his how he finishes), Bacca, Muriel and one of their midfielders.

Ospina only saves 8% of pens taken against them so England will score the first 9.

My logic is flawless.

If England can overcome this, the penalties, then the world cup trophy is written in the stars, surely.

So it comes down to who gets the most on target.

Think Pickford will save at least one pen

Sorry to break it to you lads, but my stream is that good it’s 15 minutes ahead of time. And England lost on penalties.
