      The Germans were quick to reserve their seats for the flight home.

            England seem to be doing their walking game.
            And the passing is not good, they are being hassled all the time.

                Oh that 3rd one was lovely! They're all over us but it looks like we're sending up two at a time so the handoffs are there in time. Still impressed that Senegal players being fast and sticking to our players like glue!

                    Watched the first 25 minutes in the pub, was waiting for our takeaway before picking the Mrs up from work, so missed the first 2 goals. Thought we were a bit slow out of the blocks, I did not see a 3-0 score line coming. The pub was considerably quieter compared to previous world cups and Euro's, the land lady even commented that trade had not been as good as she was expecting.

                    I was in Lincoln last weekend to see my daughter, the hotel had 30% off the bar during all games, even when we went tenpin bowling all pints were reduced during matches.

                    Glad to see Southgate has started Foden in the last 2 games instead of a sub, which has been the case for the last 10 games, the kid makes things happen.
