Euro: Group C Final round

[Venkman]

Didn't think they could be any more boring than the previous game but they were. Mainoo and Palmer were decent.

Lucky to win the group with 5 points. Losing on penalties after a 0-0 would sum this tournament up for England.

Slovenia had one more yellow card than Denmark, one of them was given to a techincal director on the bench.

And if that yellow hadn’t been given, Denmark would’ve only been ahead because they beat Slovenia 2-1 in qualifying back in November.

I mean the two best players on their team don’t play in England.

Harry Kane is doing exactly what Harry Kane always does, making sure his team doesn’t strain itself lifting any silverware

To be fair, I'm not sure Roy Keane is exactly someone you can use as precedent on these matters!

It was just before the tourney . He and Mick McCarthy are mortal enemies.

Kicking myself I can’t watch these games anymore. I do see that the great Gallagher finally played only to be pulled at half for a 19 year old. Did England win by that much just not need him in the second half? Now that TAA did England finally break from their chains? Oh wait they drew 0-0…

He did literally nothing. Not even one tackle. Just a passenger.

Makes the Slovenian celebration at the end hilarious

Well, they're in as a 3rd placed team and will play Portugal or the Group E winner. If they had finished 2nd they'd have played Germany. I mean either way, it's the first time in their history as a country that they made the K.O. stage of a major tournament, and they did so by getting a draw off England. I mean for a nation like Slovenia that seems like something worth celebrating.

I keep forgetting everyone qualifies at these Euros. Anyways I won't complain if we finish third too and qualify

It's funny. It's Slovenia's first time in the K.O. stage and its also their longest winless streak at the tournament, 6 games.

It seems like the easiest thing to do is drop Foden and Saka for Gordon and Palmer. It doesn’t matter who the best players are, it matters how they fit the team. But there’s no way that’s going to happen now.
