    Is there any more hype than an English soccer team in a tournament? ITV coverage - Gary Neville with his wing-gers. Roy Keane, it’s grand boy. Ripe for a last 16 knockout.

    I don't understand the second sentence.

    Only thing more hyped would be an English soccer team before a tournament though.

    In any case grealish is apparently the next messi.

    Holy shit it's ridiculous eh. Someone I usually consider level headed was losing their shit on FB the other about how Southgate"s hatred of Grealish is going to cost him.

    Fuuucking hell, all he's done is not start him and it's hatred.

    Take the piss out of the Grealish love in as much as you want …. But England are so much better tonight because of him.

    .... and now he's off. Czech defender blatantly pushes Maguire to the ground in the box and..... nothing. From the ref or VAR. They need to win to stay at Wembley, they really need a second goal to ease the nerves.

    Big wraps on Jadon Sancho. But what does he have to do to get a game?

    England 1 Czech Republic 0. England go through top of the group.

    Scotland 1 Croatia 3. Scotland out.

    Scotland lacked quality when finishing. Two great chances when the ball was whipped into the box and neither was taken. The Modric goal was world class.

    Plus for England - stay at Wembley.
    Minus for England - play France, Germany or Portugal next. OK so if Hungary beats Germany and France beats Portugal they could still be playing Hungary at Wembley. 3-6 anyone?

    Yeah they rarely give that stuff. Always amusing that the ref goes and warns the players before corners are taken only to ignore all the push and shove

    It was a light hand on the back, there was no push and shove!

    It must be frustrating being an England - you've got some fantastic young attacking talent for the first time in years, you watch them perform on the biggest stages in the world's toughest league for their clubs and being coached to back themselves by some of the world's best managers like Pep, Tuchel and Klopp and then you watch them playing an overly-conservative and unimaginative brand of football while playing for England (if they're lucky to get off the bench) while being coached by a guy who would be lucky to get a gig coaching in the Championship. It's a bit like being an All Black supporter at the moment...

    All crap jokes aside, you are right though. England are a team playing far below the sum of their parts.

    That was a crazy 2 hours - England had all 4 countries as their opponents at some point and all teams bar France were going out at some point. Some really good ties in the last 16 to look forward to.

    Squeaky bum time for Löw. They’ll probably end up winning the thing now.

    the Tournament was and still is screaming out for some jeopardy, so the knock outs will finally add something.
