Hey we got a goal. Yes, it was a classic Rudiger but it’s a goal. Germany do look a strong side though, that group of players actually delivering internationally for once is a first but with the luck of the draw, they could go far.
All the big hitters have shown up so far in the European Championship.
Obviously most eyes are going to be on England today to see if they can follow suit. Though I think the other two games should be good in Slovenia - Denmark, and particularly Poland - Netherlands.
Mixed performance by England, pretty standard for Southgateball. Good solid first half, lax and tired second half. Very very lucky that Serbia couldn’t find that tiny moment of quality in the box, they played England off the pitch in the second half but goals are what matter. England might toil through with a win here but against better opposition, I could see them struggling. They just have to control the match, defence looked a bit slack at times.
Would probably say that Serbia’s height advantage actually was a disadvantage too, their strength seemed to generate more fouls than anything. An awful lot of 50/50s resulting in an England player on the floor due to the build mismatch, which didn’t used to be inherently a foul but referees are definitely blowing for those now.
Robbed of an absolutely clear penalty, worst decision I’ve seen in my life. Utterly robbed. VAR not even having a look. Not even that annoyed by the last minute winner, it was a counter cause we had to go for it. Hope Varga is ok.
So we got Argentina vs Colombia for the Copa America final and Spain vs England for the Euro. I am rooting for Colombia (would love to see their winning streak continue) and England but I have a feeling Argentina and Spain will win.
I watched the Copa America semi final just now between Uruguay and Colombia and it was a great game. Very foul heavy but that's to be expected with two South American teams but over all enjoyable.

@Tasuki I want the same two winners as you. I also expect the same outcome, too. Whatever happens, hopefully they're high quality ties with fair outcomes.
