Euro 2024

[red g]

We were ****ing ****e and deserve to go home.

But that was a pen.

I will save that 1st line for englands first knockout game.

By trying to win the penalty, the striker tripped the defender. Great to see the ref not buying it, hope it spreads to all of them. The coverage is just the usual myopic home nations stuff.

Never a pen - the Scotland player has a handful of the Hungarian defenders shirt and drags him to the floor, if anything. The knee brushing past the back of his leg isn’t a challenge at all. I’m baffled by pundits again, as is standard.

Dom Sobz had yet another shocker.

Coaching staff at Liverpool have a huge job on their hands

Yeah he was poor.

Two worst teams in the tournament imo.

[Buzzo]

Was such a poor game FFS

Szoboszlai clearly isn’t fit.

[Kenneth]

It’s mad that a month or two into last season it looked like we’d signed a worldie and now I don’t see how he gets in our team.

Szoboszlai clearly isn’t fit.

But he’s looked exactly like this for six months.

England having standard tournament so far.

Underwhelming but qualify. Press and fans not happy, but it’s always this way.

Not sure what the draw throws at them but need some favourable ties to get momentum.

He’s looked like this since he was overplayed and subsequently injured.

Maybe brought back too soon from the injury.

Either way, he really needs his season to be over now.

‘Brushing past’

Knee flush in the back of the lower thigh.

Doesn’t have to be a challenge either. A clumsy impediment can still be penalised.

Anyway, Barnabas Varga reported as stable and conscious is the important thing

The analysis of it was so stupid. “The Scotland player has instigated it, but he’s allowed to because he’s in front” as if that’s one of the rules of football. This whole strikers fouling defenders and getting the decisions needs to stop, the bruno Fernandes, Anthony Gordon tactics stink and it needs stamping out. If you stick your leg across the path of another player for contact, you’re fouling him, not being fouled. Choosing to get fouled shouldn’t even be a thing. It’s just sad that it’s so ingrained in the culture now that not one person on the BBC panel could even fathom the notion that tripping the defender might not win you a penalty.

It's a stonewall pen.

[Buzzo]

It's a stonewall pen.

100%

Slow it down to frame by frame and you can generate any narrative. But if you get cleaned out from behind it’s a penalty for sure.

As mentioned and caveated, not that we deserved a ****ing thing.

He is getting his body in front of the defender to get the next touch/shot. Thats not a foul.

He then gets cleaned out.

Not even close to a debate.

It’s certainly not a dive.
