And Now the Wales game for England could be very important.

 

[Live in the Now]

Love nothing more than seeing Sterling and England fail.

Russia fully deserved their draw. England switched off after Dier scored and didn't play very well before that.

 

[XO]

England played a decent 1st half but a terrible 2nd.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Vardy was already warming up during the first half, did they never put him on? i was only half watching

Nope, he never got in.

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Danny Rose exploited through the air, Hart caught in no man's land, lax marking from Smalling. Sloppy goal all around.

Anyone else hear that explosion sound a few minutes prior to the equalizer?

 

[Power Man]

So after three straight days of battles and injuries, it's still not England's fans fault?
They were attacked right?

Same thing every two years, great.

I blame Juve fans for letting Pool fans charging them tbh

 

[rangerssharks414]

Anyone else hear that explosion sound a few minutes prior to the equalizer?

Yeah, I'm not sure what that was.

 

[Evilo]

Rough for England.

 

[HajdukSplit]

If England lose to Wales then they likely don't even make the quarters looking at their potential opponents

 

[Eisen]

Chapeau to Russia. Well deserved draw.

 

[Alex Jones]

Danny Rose exploited through the air, Hart caught in no man's land, lax marking by Smalling. Sloppy goal all around.

I did, I'm sure idiots are out there going at it.

 

[Just Win]

And England continues their traditon of not winning their 1st game at any EC ever.

 

[Eisen]

If England lose to Wales then they likely don't even make the quarters looking at their potential opponents

You expect them to lose against Wales?

 

[HajdukSplit]

Yeah, I'm not sure what that was.

Russian fans had a flare, how that got into the stadium with heightened security

 

[cgf]

Yeah, I'm not sure what that was.

Announcers said it was some flares...though I've never heard a flare sound like that...

 

[Chloraflora]

England team in a nutshell. Play well in patches, switch off and **** up when the hopes get higher.

And people think I'm weird for not liking the national team... yeah no thanks.

[Live in the Now]

They won't rethink their 11, but they really should. Awful substitutes as well. Can't think of any reason to bring Wilshere and Milner on in that situation. Milner's strength is in being tireless, there's no reason to bring him on and play a few minutes of keep away.

I expect Sterling will be the only player held to account and he'll be dropped for Vardy.

 

[Alex Jones]

You expect them to lose against Wales?

Yes. Doesn't help that they are managed by an idiot.

 

[JaysCyYoung]

Disappointing ending to a match that I thought England largely controlled other than a few moments in the second-half. They could have been easily up 3 or 4 nothing were it not from some amazing saves by Akinfeev.

Felt like the three minutes of added time that allowed Russia time to get the equalizer was also extremely generous too. Now that Wales game looms large in importance.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Only someone with a distinct anti-English prejudice or someone who hasn't paid attention for a good 20 years would worry about the English fans when there's a couple truckloads of drunk Russian lads in the vicinity.

 

[Just Win]

Announcers said it was some flares...though I've never heard a flare sound like that...

Those Ruskies build some strong home made flares. But i wonder how they got it in the stadium with all the controls? Probably in someone arse.

 

[Blender]

Vardy and Milner should be starting, they have been playing far too well over the last 3-4 months to be nailed to the bench.
