England goalkeeper and defenders must be dominating the fantasy football rankings

Seems like the ref can’t just say **** it and call it at 90 minutes with no added time.

Referee did Ukraine a favour, put them out of their misery.

Pretty impressive that all the goals were on the fly, not from corners or free kicks, and 3 out of 4 were from headers.

Eh? One was a free kick and one was a corner?

Lol, shows how much attention I was paying. Half on my phone, half watching.

I'm starting to belive it may come home!

I've seen it in the prem too a few times. I think there is discretion in the rule, but I'd be interested to know the wording if anyone is in the know.

• any other cause, including any significant delay to a restart (e.g. goal celebrations)

The fourth official indicates the minimum additional time decided by the referee at the end of the final minute of each half. The additional time may be increased by the referee but not reduced.

So yeah, not allowed to decrease added time.

2 games, one against a team we should realistically beat and another a coin toss, anything can happen in a final. I’m believing.

 

[Basher]

The way we are playing we shouldn’t fear anyone to be honest.

Play like this and it’s ours for the taking

Until we reach a half decent side, sure.

Weve been lucky with the draw, let’s not get carried away.

And both at home. This may well be the best chance we'll ever have to win a major competition.

Yep exactly, we couldn’t have asked for more. Come on lads!!

Regarding the injury time, it's a relatively common trait I've seen from European refs, blowing up early. Unless there's a major delay, a lot of them will also ignore any stoppages in injury time so if it's 2mins stoppage time they blow on like 91:58-92:00 regardless of what's actually happened in that two mins. The idea that a second half of a match can end on 90:00 is quite frankly ludicrous these days, given the amount of subs you tend to see in the second half.

Serious question, as I don't really follow football, but surely Germany was one of the harder draws in the first round of the knockouts? Yes, last nights was easy and for a Semi, you can't really ask more than for a team like Denmark I think, but Germany was a tough draw?

This could be the year.
