I wouldn't normally begrudge a team losing 6-0 a consolation goal, but not these lot.

A year ago Alli would have been one of the first players on the teamsheet, but he didn't have the best season and has slipped back a bit.
Defending has been shocking from England in the last couple of minutes.

Dead level with Belgium on goal difference and goals scored, so down to yellow cards?
If we get one more then that will be level too at 3 apiece.

Harry Kane now has as many world cup goals as Messi

I'm a bit annoyed with England atm. Okay the game is won, but Vardy is there to get some useful game time ahead of when we might need him, and we are farting about passing from defender to defender. Throw him a *modded* bone, for crying out loud.... he might as well not be there

Yep, England getting quite sloppy towards the end with some shoddy passing.
Henderson seems to be the only guy with any energy left.

Thanks yuppie.
Wow what a score line! Well done England.
That said how Panama qualified ahead of the USA is beyond me.

Japan and Senegal played out an exciting 2-2 draw.

I hope poland can find a way to progress, because they look dreadful.
they wouldn't frighten anybody in the KO's... how they are 8th in the FIFA rankings is beyond me

I like the fact that Southgate didn't particularly enjoy the England performance today.
Easy to get carried away with 6-1, but it was a very flattering scoreline to be honest against World Cup debutants.
Definitely not a game I would choose to watch again. A lovely finish from Lingard and a nicely worked free kick were the highlights, but I think they played alot better in the first half against Tunisia.
In saying all that they have still done markedly better than I was expecting, in fact reaching the knockout stages is already more than I thought they would.
