England v Spain Official Matchnight Thread 14.07.24

[Chunkylad]

First attack and looked dangerous

 

[stbe]

That was a good move

 

[bill40]

Is harry Kane not allowed to jump

White men can't jump.

 

[BFC87]

Looking good

 

[Mark_GT]

Saka seeing lots of the ball. We need great movement to unlock these.

 

[groundsman]

Shaw looks safe.
Williams seems confident against Walker. I predict he's eventually subbed for Trent

 

[tommytwojags]

The obvious difference is that when we get the ball Spain close us down. When Spain get the ball we back off.

 

[Blackpool Are Back!]

Have there been any shots from either side yet?

 

[20togo]

our first touch is shocking at times

 

[bill40]

That's called a centre forward tackle!

 

[bill40]

Shaw looks safe.
Williams seems confident against Walker. I predict he's eventually subbed for Trent

What? Walker has him in his pocket.

 

[groundsman]

This game will be won by a mistake.

 

[Chunkylad]

Clever by England. Change of formation and do them on the counter attack.
Their two kids on the wing not getting a sniff off our FBs

 

[Blackpool Are Back!]

I see Gareth Bale is there watching.
I wonder who he wants to win?

 

[Tangerinenick]

Spain are excellent but we can win this

true bur were getting little out of Bellingham, and Foden going forward and Mainoo is anonymous. So Kane is pretty isolated.

 

[Allmodcons]

How sweaty is the Spain kit?

 

[Sooty59]

Even so far. We’re doing ok.

 

[Burt]

Kane carried on his recent form we have 10 men again

 

[bill40]

Downside: Typical Southgate dross.
Upside: It's won so far.
Seriously we look like we're going to win and will.

 

[Lala]

We’re putting a good shift in. Looking good defensively and up front. No shame in this

 

[groundsman]

Spain are excellent but we can win

Yes we can.

 

[tangerinetitans]

Shit this I thought the best team in the world would come out and play a bit of football.

 

[Macseasider]

Every attack we've had has been broken down by Kane's woeful touch so far.

 

[stbe]

Don't forget Scotland beat Spain on qualifying. So if we don't win today we'll have several years of the Jocks banging on how they're the best on Europe.

 

[Mark_GT]

Williams and Olmo best players so far. Our midfield need to get to grips, disjointed at the moment.

When were Scotland last in a final?

 

[groundsman]

Kane is the weak link. Bellingham decent head on and Kane is sat in midfield

 

[Lytham_fy8]

Williams and Olmo best players so far. Our midfield need to get to grips, disjointed at the moment.

Getting pulled about a bit, Foden needs to hold his position and tell Kane to get up the bloody pitch.

Kane will be subbed later

 

[tommytwojags]

How sweaty is the Spain kit?

It's the new wet look kit.

 

[clappers]

It’s a brick wall when we go into the centre around the penalty box.

 

[20togo]

Williams and Olmo best players so far. Our midfield need to get to grips, disjointed at the moment.

Mainoo having a shocker. Think the occasion has got the better of him

 

[bill40]

Once England grasp how shite this Spain side is they'll get properly stuck into them.

 

[bill40]

Mainoo having a shocker. Think the occasion has got the better of him

Bollox.

 

[BFC87]

Top defending

 

[Blackpool Are Back!]

Spain are excellent but we can win this

On penalties.

 

[20togo]

,,,,he did well there though

 

[tangerine.com]

Good first half

 

[groundsman]

For as safe at the back we have looked it's worrying that we haven't had a shot. Spains defence has done half the work our defenders have had.

 

[Wizzerboy]

Can't believe how many wrong choices Saka is making this half

 

[Blackpool Are Back!]

A shot at last !!!

 

[tommytwojags]

From behind it looked like Rodri stopped a certain goal from Kane

 

[tangerine.com]

Can't believe how many wrong choices Saka is making this half

It's pressure they are under to win.

 

[groundsman]

Foden 1st shot

 

[bill40]

Walker once again showing Williams he's the boss. First innings closed.

 

[clappers]

We haven’t conceded and if we can keep it that way, there’s always a chance. We were never going to come out and dominate Spain from the off.

 

[Junior_BentsPlatformShoes]

Nothing in it, neither keeper troubled. Could go either way still.

 

[groundsman]

Team worked hard. Time to work smarter.

 

[Goldfinger]

Kane carried on his recent form we have 10 men again

Get him off asap
