Just like his Brazilian namesake. Altho that was his job to be fair.

Lesson here- had Portugal gone for it like this at the start of the match they might have won

God forbid we make the same mistake on Tuesday, we need to start fast, no regrets at the end that we didn’t go for it sooner

Such a 1 sided match that has severely lacked in quality in the final 3rd

Terrible decision to shoot from there in the 92nd minute

What is the infatuation with clearing the cross bar by 8 foot with the Portuguese?

Portugal deliveries have been league 2 at best

Think people are slowly realising that, although Southgate gets crucified for it, really almost every International team is very negative & risk averse especially shutting up shop when winning.

Last 20 mins has been exciting. Prior to that average game at best

Lukaku - different gravy although Belgium may suffer if De Bruyne and Hazard are injured)

I've always thought the Germans have had the upper hand against us but this surprised me

Don’t see the issue there, not like they’re doing it to just spite Germany.

I'm just chuffed that Portugal are out. Can't stand that smarmy twat, Ronaldo. And I had a shite holiday there once!

All the important games at major tournaments are ‘win or go home’. Concede 2 goals in a match and you’re probably going to be on the losing side.

It’s not like the champions league where you have another leg to tie things up or a long format game where the best teams will overcome temporary setbacks.

This is why I’m quite positive about Southgate as manager. He gets that, and hopefully it translates into deep runs in major tournaments.

I’d be amazed if he doesn’t start with pretty much the same side as we did against Croatia with the only change being Maguire for Mings.

Anything but the final would be an embarrassment now.

So they should imo. Saka and Grealish played well but it wouldn’t be a national disgrace should they lose their place

I don’t think Mount should or will come back in - 10 days’ isolation will bring about its own complications. One positive aspect is that if he comes off the bench in a situation where we are leading he is very defensively astute for an attacking player, unlike someone like Grealish.
