Being able to control emotions is an important skill of the game

Should be at least 2-0.

England has so much world class players on offense, but their defensive line aint cutting it.

Until he gets bought for 100+ mil by an english team and proceeds to drown in the premier league.
Main problem of English is their arrogance and hubris.

He basically made both goals.

Why didn't the ref end the half there just before the goal? Plus, why didn't Koulibaly, or whoever made the foul there, he'd get yellow cardedbut still better then down two.

He could succeed if he went to a club like Liverpool or City, he just has to avoid United, where young prospects go to die.

Dominating a World Cup elimination match at 19. I was jerking off in my dorm room at 19.

Bellingham is taking us to the top lol. What a player, he made that look so easy. He reminds me of Yaya Toure so much especially that monster season he had at City.

Senegal midfield guy had one job: take Bellingham down.

These teams just lack discipline and know how.

USA yesterday also conceded in stoppage time.

Nice cool and collected finish by kane

That could be it. England capitalized on Senegals poor hold up there (again).

I will say that Mendy did not help them either... never was a confident keeper IMO.

Sedale Threatt · Post #419 » by **Sedale Threatt** » Sun Dec 4, 2022 7:58 pm

Senegal with a strikingly similar performance to ours. Haven't been that bad, but blew a golden opportunity to make it 1-0 before getting totally dissected at the moments of truth.

Can't blame Mendy for any of the goals, especially the second one. Kane had like 5 mins to choose where to shoot, not much Mendy can do there imho.
