In fairness, the free kick that Denmark got for their goal was never a foul. Competitions like this are always about luck and decisions going for or against you. I think you have to admit though that overall England were by far the better side. We had much more possession and far more shots. Think it was about 20 shots to their 6/7 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TimBKK Posted July 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) As a neutral, I thought Sterling’s dive was shameful - do these players not have one ounce of pride? Rhetorical question but clearly not, and sad that the referee (who otherwise had a good night, IMO) bought into it. Lets hope the final is decided by actual skill and not play acting.

Rhetorical question but clearly not, and sad that the referee (who otherwise had a good night, IMO) bought into it. Lets hope the final is decided by actual skill and not play acting. Another neutral here, I agree with you, the Dutch referee decided the game when he stupidly gave a penalty that clearly wasn't one. Bizarrely Kane then can't score the penalty and gets a free tap in. Hard to share this hero worship of a team that includes players arrested twice for beating women (Sterling), one censured for paying two prostitutes for a sex party during lockdown (Walker), one for giving insider betting information to his mates (Trippier), one with a ludicrous Man-Bun (Philips) and one sporting a girlie headband (Grealish). Still, Kane is a gentleman, and I preferred England to go through. Hard to see them prevail over Italy though. This was as bumbling and lucky a route to the final as one could imagine.

The South Americans and southern Europeans seems to be masters of the “dark arts” aka cheating although, to be fair, I have never thought of Italy in this specific way. Yes, a bit of a generalization (see Arjen Robben as a counter example) but I think it is comparatively fair. Will need a referee with balls of steel to hold the line and call the game fairly. Can only hope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The own goal would have been scored by Sterling anyway and Kane himself was taken out for what could have been a penalty so in the end it all balances out.

As for Sterling's penalty, it was a soft one but the fact is, if you don't go down, you will never get a decision.
