Lack of confidence from Cheek there that ball was absolutely begging to be hit first time, literally screaming at the top of its lungs for it.
 
Getting everything we deserve. Really disappointed in Southgate with this one. We have a team sitting top of the group full of confidence. Make a couple of changes ok but Dier and Delph have looked awful. Look like they’ve never kicked a ball. Henderson missed and Kane missed as well. Poor defending for the goal letting him cut inside on his strongest foot.
 
How bloody annoying is it when commentators go on about how a layer is a dead ball specialist (Alexander-Arnold) and he proceeds to be absolutely awful at every one of them!!

Yeah it's not how I'd have gone about it, he's picked the team in such a way that it looks like he doesn't really give a **** what the result is. Momentum and confidence is everything in football and this has put us back to square one despite going through.

It's not an excuse, but Belgium did make 9 changes as well. Neither manager really going for it. Both content to use it as a training match.
Neither as bad as Japan and Poland though, once they knew Colombia were winning

For those of us who don't know our international flags :)

I'm so comfortable with the national flags (probably from playing football games on computers in my youth) that I hadn't even noticed the previous poster didn't have country names on them. I had to go back and check.

Dunno about you but it was PES for me, you became an expert on flags without realising it.

Quiz time... All green with nothing but green on it - who's? (without googling)
