Game on

France faire caca au lit.

Shite ref is shite.

7AM down under, considering a second cup of tea.

You can tell by his reaction that he knows he should have saved it too, carrying on like there was some sort of transgression that impacted his ability to save it. He has mostly performed well for England in the big tournaments, but you have to wonder whether Pope would have been playing if he hadn't had a bit of a mare in the game he started in the lead up. Pope 100% saves that.

Even worse that there was a foul on Saka that wasn't called at the start of the play where France scored. Mark Bosnich saying that Pickford wasn't in a great position and should be devestated about being beat from that distance. What does Southgate do now?

You have to say on balance England have had the better chances, Kane's one on one on particular. Pickford should have got a hand on their goal. In his defense it came through the defenders legs but that distance is where he's at his worst.

We've got Martin Tyler commentating, who I normally don't mind though for some reason he seems ever so slightly biased against England.

Agree, and we didn't even get to see a replay. That was again in a dangerous spot and another chance to test the mettle of Lloris.

Got to bring Wilson on at some point to remind Lloris of the last time they played.

I wonder whether the VAR was just checking where it occured rather than whether it was a foul.

Terrible call not to give a free kick/penalty there based in first impressions.

That free kick probably getting saved in Sunday league.

Honestly should have been saved with regular sized arms.

They change so much that doesn't really have much benefit and takes so much away. I really want to read the book again now.

It's shit compared to the book, but then the book is amazing.

Eddie Howe confirming at the press conference in Saudi Arabia that this trip was a 'football decision'.

Did he forget to hold up a current newspaper at the end?

"We're going to have a party that lasts all night long..... now get out of my house you degenerate dancing wrong-uns"

If we only knew...

He doesn’t say they cheat at all.

Australia's back baby!
