They made a meal of the obvious foul. Deserve to be one down. Colombia will be ten men soon

And yet again, Lingaard with a totally unnecessary booking.

And Kane is still far too deep.
As has been seen on several occasions, we can not sit on a 1-0 lead....and we need to rise above these provocative and aggressive tactics.
If we're not careful its going to be us who go one man down!

What a game..

Looks like Columbia have had to revert to playing football through fear of getting a player sent off , England seem to have grown into the game , still wouldn't be surprised to see a red though.

Did ya see that
.. commentator saying they should have had a more experienced ref for these top teams

a reply to: gortex

Phew. Couple of lively minutes there for Colombia. You're right, they've chilled out and started playing good football again. England defensive play isn't as good as it could be though. They had easily 9 men back then and Colombia ran through...

It's like watching England of old , nerve-racking.

#$ WHAT A GAME

Typical England.
Sterling and lingard really really poor. Let their team mates down badly tonight .

England look dead on their feet.
Going out after all the talk?

As its been said..it' d be nice to see one of the majors like England to go tp the finals

Always said we had a dodgy defence.

As has been said, Colombia regained their composure and they looked like the only team likely to score.

Kane playing in the centre of midfield near the half way line.....far too deep. When we did push forward there was no-one in the middle.

We self-explode all the #ing time!

So many players on yellows, I'll be amazed if this ends up 11 against 11.

Let's hope Southgate can earn his pay, rally the troops and come up with something that will save us from the inevitable penalty kick shambles and defeat!

a reply to: TheConstruKctionofLight

I don't want to say anything and jinx it lol

It's been a great 2nd half.

a reply to: UKTruth

I fel they played a smart 1st half..apparentley they play for penalties..
And it paid off.
If it goes to penalties anything could happen

England look fragile and nervy...Colombia look the opposite.

Come on England!!!!!!
