How is diving and play-acting going to be removed from the game? It is endorsed by officials and taught by coaches. Football is turning soft.

Italy should've finished the game off in the second half. England were completely out of it for 45 minutes.

Start with more yellow cards and being more discerning about what constitutes a penalty. Right now all it takes is a touch and if the player goes down he seems to have a legitimate claim for a penalty. If that doesn’t encourage gamesmanship then what does?

Kane and Sterling should be on yellow's for simulation. I completely agree - it should be punished and it needs to be punished. I cannot see improvements coming anytime soon though. Officials do not seem to have the guts to give a player grief for diving.

The last time I saw the Italians in a pen shoot out was v Germany in Bordeaux and that was total madness. Didn't end well then ;-(

Also can I just say I’m absolutely fucking gutted for Rashford. The only likeable one out of that diving bunch. I really hope that out of all of them the press don’t go after him in the aftermath.

I personally think more to Rashford's actions than meets the eye. Guy's clearly been trying to forge a career in politics after football seeking endorsements from Obama and so on. Fantastic gesture but he's a multimillionaire and will be set for life regardless. Have to add that he definitely shouldn't be scapegoated, but I don't think even the Sun would do something as sick as that these days. We're not in the same world as we were when Urs Meier was getting death threats. Felt bad for Saka though, guy was obviously devastated. But definitely relieved Italy won and we won't have to hear about this for years now. Back to work tomorrow!

Look on the pricks taking off their medals - a lot of people would love to win a footballing medal. Shows how bad their levels of entitlement are. Poor.

What time does the violence start? I dare say a few Italian restaurants have had their windows put through already. At last we have the England back that we all know & love, bottling penalty shootouts, then smashing up the town they live in.

Not sure why they're doing that, clearly deliberate, are they seriously trying to teach people that to do excellently at a tournament, perform to the best of your ability and narrowly finish second is some kind of disgrace?
