The poor poms lost the Euro final on a penalty shoot out ( Which I loathe).
first things first. The referee had a great game IMHO. I only disagree with one decision.
Gareth Southgate the English manager has not learned a thing since England lost to Croatia in the world cup semi-final. in both games the poms scored an early goal and then attempted to defend that for the rest of the game.
In this game the English wingbacks were causing havoc to the Italians and for most of the first half they did not not how to handle Harry Kane playing deep.
however Macini naturally changed the Italian system. Southgate did nothing. Once the Italians scored you simply did not think the poms could score again.
The Italians had the two oldest centre backs in the tournament yet england who had perhaps the fasted forward rarely attempted to take them on. The English substitutions di not make sense whereas the Italian did.
Finals are rarely good watching spectacles and this followed the script
The poms have the World cup to look forward to.
One last thing. you wear a suit to the opera not to a sporting contest. If you do you are a first class prat
