Day 17: England vs Germany | Sweden vs Ukraine (Ro16 7&8)

Well deserved win. But England didn't exactly play well. Anyone thinking it's going to be easier from here on out is fooling themselves.
But man we should buy Grealish. Him and Shaw together where very good.
Maguire was also rock solid this match.
Shockingly bad German team.
 
Now you can give little respect to the man picked the team. Southgate deserved credit for beating germany.

Rashford and Shaw are good.

Rash must be feeling his injuries
 
What a great game, England to win the Euro!

I think that Italy are the favourites because they are a team built on their great defence.

SAF always said that you win games with a good attack but you win trophies/tounaments/leagues starting from a great defence and that's what United need to do too.
 
Congrats to England.

Happy to never see Löw in any actually meaningful position again. Most disgusting and stupid manager. I cannot wait for the players to start talking shit about him once he’s gone.
 
No tactical masterclass here. Germany are not good. No Gnabry or Sane until late in the game makes for easy defending.

Man for man England is the better side for the first time in my life.
 
Still cant believe Muller missed. 9 times out of 10 thats in the net.

England really have no reason to not be in the final at this stage.

Both Grealish and Shaw have their left hand taped. Its a sign of something.

There are different ways to 'play well'. France played some eye-catching stuff yesterday but were shocking tactically. England showed spirit, teamwork, a good system, and noone had a bad game. That to me is a very good showing. It doesn't all have to be worldie stuff.
 
Get in England! Rode our luck at times but that is a very famous victory. So many good performances on the night, well done to Sterling, well done to Shaw and the defence. Also feel thrilled for Southgate, missed the penalty that knocked us out in 1996 and 25 years later has managed the team to our first knockout win over Germany since what feels like forever!
 
Now let's continue the narrative that Southgate is a football genius and Joachim is an idiot who doesn't know anything.
 
No chance England lose against Sweden/Ukraine, final is in the bag for them. :angel:

Not so fast. Ukraine, maybe, but Sweden is a tough, disciplined team that’s difficult to break down and has better strikers than Timo Werner. If they score first, it’s real hard to beat them.
