FIFA World Cup 2018 - GROUP G [Belgium, Panama, Tunisia, England - 18/23/24/28 June] **spoilers**
- Thread starter Cosimo
- Start date
a lot of effort with very little quality where it counts
Probably a deserved result, but England made it a lot harder for themselves than it really should have been
Loftus-Cheek really improved the side after coming on, should have been on a good 10 -15 minutes before he did

Gareth celebrating like we win the tournament. 
I see no reason why Sterling and Lingard would start the next game, both woeful. Loftus Cheek and Rashford simply have to start.
Deserved win, yes we laboured in the second half but the chances we had it should've been 5-1. Two clear penalties as well, ref was a clown.

Should have been 6-0, can't believe the constant cheating throughout, and the ref letting it slide.
He walked to Russia too
Well we played Sterling for 70 minutes and he has legs that turn to jelly in the box.
Well he is from Columbia

It’s embarassing. Probably surprised that he had it in him to actually manage a winning side in a World Cup group game

We can win this!

To be fair it's a big result. Panama are probably a free win and 6 points is enough.
I think it's a good result considering the ref, at least they've had some good experience from that match, and can now go forward with 3 points and hopefully have learnt from the mistakes.
I don't know why he didn't take Alli off sooner, he clearly wasn't fit after he had the issue in the first half. I don't like him much, but he clearly wasn't playing the same.

He had a decent enough game but that was a bog standard corner at the end - in fact our tactic from set-plays was pretty much to hang it up around the penalty spot and rely on our extra height to win the first ball.
