2point5 Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 So ridiculously pumped. Semi finals was way beyond any of my wildest imaginations. Now we’ve got a genuine shot of actually making the final. Madness. Never thought I’d see the day. I fucking love Gareth Southgate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunisia was a harder game for England’ It looked like they were happy with just getting to the quarters. Never even tried to compete imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha it's remarkable that England will be tested for the first time during the finals. France has kicked out Uruguay and Argentina and Belgium has kicked out Brazil. Those teams are tougher to play against than England imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted July 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 You can only beat who is put in front of you, Colombia and Sweden are no mugs either - not elite teams but Sweden topped their group and knocked out a Swiss side that is ranked 6th in the world.

Thomas D. Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Colombia was tough because they played dirty, they got six yellow cards in a match which was the most any team has received in the tournament so far. It was a disgrace, really. Glad England kicked them out. Sweden is good but let's be honest England has a better team and they were a step above them. I don't think there was ever a real doubt that England would win that match. And now England will have it easier against Croatia because Croatia will probably still be exhausted from the last matches they played. I'm not saying that England doesn't deserve to be in the finals because they have a great team, just saying that they didn't have the thrill yet to play against a team that could really beat them. They really didn't have to fight for it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its true - i can't think of a team that has played this many poor'ish teams to get to a semi-final. Even Croatia arn't what they used to be and i think they will be very very tired after back to back 120mins. Those rankings mean nothing really - Colombia and Sweden are quite poor teams. This is just the luck of the draw - so far everything has worked in England's favour - the loss the Belgium was a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Germany in 2002 was even easier for me: Group: Saudi Arabia Ireland Cameroon Last 16 - Paraguay Quarters - USA Semi - South Korea All three knock out games were 1-0 too and they should of lost against USA for sure. Luck of the draw though isn't and all you can do is beat the teams you play which we are currently doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Shearer said he couldn't even name any of the teams England played in 1966 apart from West Germany in the final. Nobody will give a shit who we beat on the way there.
