If he wasn't playing the goal wouldn't be scored 

Interesting point. Feels like a lot of people who've just argued for something consistently feeling justified. It was a lucky cross.

How is that not a free kick?!? Daka has been wiped out. 

I think the Patson talk has gone to your head a bit

Classic England, play our way into trouble

Something about GCSEs being mentioned? 

And then linking that to the fact that all coaches enjoyed working wit Saka?

I know it's completely trivial but why are Czech Republic and Croatia the "home" teams in these fixtures when they are played at Wembley and Hampden?

I'm not a fan of Grealish but my point still stands. No Grealish no 1-0 lead

How was it a ‘lucky’ cross?

[Sly]

Imagine if Sterling keeps scoring. The amount of abuse he gets.

Toss of a coin I believe

 All grounds are meant to be neutral

Glad I wasn't the only one who wondered what the big cheer was for a few minutes ago

 

[Tuna]

Kane too deep again.

Nature of the draw. 

It's a host venue but doesn't mean a team is always 'at home'. 

 

Happened with Netherlands yesterday and Germany the other day vs Portugal I think.

Whilst reading the 70 page UEFA guidelines on this tournament recently, I stumbled on this point. 
Apparenly it’s all agreed in advance which team will be designated home or away for ‘administrative purposes’

Whatever the fvck that means!

at least we scored it at our house.

I’ve seen slugs that can go faster than Kane.

Sure feels like justification right now. 

You think Grealish deserves no credit for that goal at all?

We’re doing Madness puns. It’s Suggs not slugs 

[MPH]

I didn’t want to be, but very impressed with Saka so far

[Sly]

Kane again ……. Could he have squared that to Sterling? 

[StanSP]

Kane could have crossed to Sterling? Good save anyway. Nice ball from Maguire.

Kane looks like he’s wearing baggy trousers when he tries to run
