I wouldn't have had Saka take that pen. Sterling or Hendo should've stepped up. Sancho and Rashford I have a little less sympy for b/c they were brought on specifically for pens. You could tell Rashford got caught in two minds when Donnarumma jumped to the left and came back and left Rashford guessing which way he'd go again.

Hendo was taken off.

Sterling should have taken one but if he missed it he'd get a media backlash worse than you'd ever seen anyone get. English media is a disease that plays heavily on everything they do.

Lol some random CAC neighbour down the street just passed by on a scooter with a big ass Italian flag blasting reggae tunes :dead:

Got it on the security camera too but saw it live as I was grabbing an Amazon package off the porch. Lol

I don’t much agree with this. Sure Italy was in better form but it’s because Mancini allows them to. England should have won today. Early goal then just sat back inviting pressure allowing Italy to play until the goal came. They had the speed and technique to cause Italy way more problems than they did.
From what I saw though, England did get into several good positions, but they were lacking that final incisive pass in the box. A lot of English players have great athleticism, but lacking technique in the box. Harry Kane was basically a deep-lying playmaker. Did he even have a single shot at goal?

It's England. That's the style the English play. They don't like being aggressive. Plus, given their history, a semi and a final in consecutive tournaments is good.
Lemme ask you this, does Deschamps keep his job you think?
