Question as a non-football guy. Why didn't the more seasoned guys take the panalties?

Shook

This was classic Italian tournament football.

- Get a scrappy goal to tie/go ahead
- Hold possession/defend
- If you can't win it in regulation take it to ET/PK

It's an old formula that works for them.

After the goal England disappeared.
Y'all already said everything that needs to be said about the shootout.
After years of seeing England blow penalties abroad now y'all got to see it up close and personal.

When the season starts?

It’s a lot of a pressure and some can guys can’t handle it, nothing equivalent in US sports. You’re right tho, they should have stepped up

"Lets have a kid that would be one year removed from his senior prom close out the biggest match in 60 years for England"

what a dolt

Kane went ghost in a final...just like in the CL against Liverpool.

Man has no heart.

how many tournament winning 9s you know of, that had to come back into their own halves to make shyt happen?

 

[Rigby.]

have you ever been to london?

I imagine the implication of this post is that there's not many or they're already treated like shyt

You score a god damn goal in 2 minutes and play like ass the rest of the game. Them Italian cacs deserved the win, hate to say it, but right after the half time they looked like a team ready to win.

Wait a sec, this isn’t even after the Final?

It was before the game and they were stealing off on people trying to sneak into the game with no ticket, fair play I think

UK Brehs stay sharp and keep your knives sharper

 

[jj23]

Logging off now.

Brehs in London stay safe out there.

There won't be any issues. Trust.

Saka and them other yute stepped up when them more senior players was too p*ssy. They deserve respect. England and Southgate have other things to be mad at than missed penalties. He’s getting fired for this.

I stopped playing Yakuza for this

Just depressing


If England lost in regulation time it wouldn’t have been soo bad

 

[African_brehda]

you need to score the first penalties (1 and 2) and have a secure 5th taker

Does it matter what order you send players to take penalties?

I don’t know where brehs got this narrative about the 1st kick not being as important. That shyt sets the tone for the whole kickout

Italy had the advantage in pens due to Donnarumma (though Pickford did his thing), but the PK lines was pretty bad. You need to have Kane and Sterling at 1 and 5
