They’re so self indulged and absorbed they’re deluded to their own players’ negatives.
Cant see Italy scoring, looks like they’re spent.

The ref has finally figured Kane out at least

I can see this now, 1-0 half time, England will score early on again in the second half.

Saying that the scoring pattern so far at least gives Italy the prospect that if they equalise late it might knock the stuffing completely out of England and they are tee’ed up nicely for a killer blow. It’s all been going England’s way throughout the tournament though and it’s difficult to see that stopping now.

Are Englands defence actually just very good? Only conceded one goal all tournament - from a free kick too.
Italians look clueless tonight.

England out diving Italy, well whadda you know... Prick commentator basically saying “normally we like refs who let play go but not with the way this England team behaves”. Yeah I’ll bet. Diving fannies. It’s honestly been embarrassing from both sides and I don’t understand why the refs aren’t booking players for it.

Italy have looked sluggish tonight. They have grown into the game, but I can't see them scoring. In my head England have already won this!

Ah yes an early yellow.....
Why cant Sterling be carded there for being a cheating prick?!

I wonder if the England fans realise the irony in them chanting "Don't Take Me Home".

It’s hard to say and this is the problem with taking the easy route- your legitimacy as champions will be questioned. Timo Werner, Kasper Dolberg and Yarmolenko are not world class strikers. That being said Italy look disjointed and out of sorts and that’s partly to do with England giving them very little encouragement

Atta boy son
It’s still set up for England though. The longer the game goes on their bench will inject quality the Italians won’t match.
The only positive is that England have no momentum and trying to get back in this from a standing start will not be easy- this ain’t Denmark.

There's something quite galling about hearing "Don't take me home" being sung by fans that have only played a single away game this tournament.

Well that’s as good a result as I could expect really. England were shown up a bit in that second half- out played, conceded a soft goal. They really needed that injury to Chiesa both to take him out of the game and stop the Italian’s momentum. It goes to show that at this level you need more than just a strong defence. Can’t remember England doing much that second half apart from that Stones header and a dangerous run from Sterling.
For me the injury to Chiesa is a killer blow for Italy. England will eventually come out of their shell and send on Grealish and have a go at it and I think they’ll blag it, but they can’t argue they are the better team.
