Tonight's game may have the same excitement but not the same quality!

I'll settle for 4-0, 1-0 or even pens.

I haven't watched a pen shoot out involving England since 2006... and I walked out half way through that

Seemingly Denmark are the highest ranked team England have faced up to now, which given that they've played Germany, surprised me a bit

England paid the price for going to sleep for 10 mins after a bright start. I'm not surprised though because they've done that every game up to now. At least they redeemed themselves by getting the goal back early rather than getting deeper and deeper into the second half with nerves jangling and becoming ever more desperate.

I didn't see the Sterling missed sitter.... I was away putting the kettle on. I didn't even know he'd missed one until the half time highlights. It was a glorious opportunity to spurn

England are doing okay again, now that they've woken up after a little mid first half nap.

Rice is being outclassed. Needs to bring him off. Everyone else is doing well, but it's held up and turned over in CM too much for comfort

Kane nearly gets a pen but the ref was never going to change his mind.

Bit surprising there hasn't been another goal, for either side.

The biased Swedish commentators are certain it was a penalty.

I'd like him to explain why that's not a penalty, especially after being a soft touch and blowing for every niggle all game. Second clear pen we've been denied this tournament

The Belgian commentators just laughed.

"It's ok to take someone out now? Uefa didn't let us know the rule change".

Pickford has seemed a rabbit in the headlights at time tonight. I hope he does not have a problem in Extra time that cost england the game.


I would like to hear the video refs reason for not giving a penalty. it is a text book penalty and the ore it is shown, the worse it looks for Var

I dreamed all night of England losing this before I got up to watch.

It's going to be effin' penalties again, isn't it? And we all know what happens then, especially in semi finals.
