Norse were never getting fair play according to the current laws of the game:

England bigger nation
Trump likes Harry Kane
Norway's support of the people of Gaza

Argentina win this according to the current laws of game.

That was coming. Argentina are shite.

Swiss equalise through Ndoye. Goalie Martinez should have done better.

Capt Pat

Embolo sent off for simulation. That could be crucial. Well deserved. Will it change the game.

Right to reverse yellow. But harsh red to Swiss. VAR wants an Argentina-Eng semi.

Capt Pat

Alvarez scores a cracker and Lautaro Martinez scores to finish off the Swiss.

Now can Messi beat the English?

How did extra time flatter the Norwegians? England had barely a chance in normal time themselves.

Agreed. Some really weird takes on here at times

Look-Up!

England have dangerous players but was surprised how badly they struggle to control tempo of game and poor in the centre. Norway played them off the park at times but ultimately very sloppy when it really counted. Haaland looked like he had the shits for the last week.

England rode their luck and still standing. They're not great but neither are Argentina.  It'll be shakey enough affair in the semifinal.  I suppose if they get to the final and France or Spain give them a trimming it would be a great ending.

England v Argentina FFS it's like do I want my left or right leg cut off. Can't stand either. Hopefully France don't do anything silly in the final and close it out

The red tops will be summoning the spirit of '82 when our boys gave the Argies a bloody nose on Goose Green.

England and France have depth that the other teams don't. Those are standing to them and will continue to do so.

If you're Mainoo you'd be absolutely sick at Reece James coming on in midfield ahead of you. Wtf.
