They might look at Aahley Young holding the defender when Stones scored.

By the time England play their final group game on Thursday, six of the eight groups will already have been completed. Twelve teams will already be in place in their half of the draw.

This could be an advantage to England because whilst we wouldn’t know for certain who we’re playing in the last sixteen, we might be able to see that one half of the draw would offer an easier route beyond the last sixteen.

I’m saying that if that advantage materialises and only if, we should make the most of it. it's a decision to be made Wednesday evening.

You’re saying ignore it, win regardless and possibly accept a much tougher route.

Baffling in my opinion, but hey.

Feel a bit sorry for the Russian fans today - at least it doesn't matter much in the big scheme of things - although they would have had a small chance against Portugal - but none against Spain.

Oddly enough our group is the last of the 8 groups to play so we would know who has finished where in group H.

Thin crowd there?

Uruguay getting into their stride, Russia showing just how poor the other two teams in the group have been.

You'd fancy getting Russia in the knockout stages, home advantage or not.

People say England are suspect at the back, there would be uproar if we conceded a goal like Spain just did.

Can't help but feel I've picked the wrong game!

Waste of time me turning over though, then Iran v Portugal would hot up.
