The English are known for their reserve...as a rule. But when it comes to International football , we go little crazy
And this one is the tv presenters ( just watch the first bit, in the studio)

For the first time in my life, I can say "England won a WC penalty shootout!" It's strange! And I can't think of a more fitting way to end the "curse" than under Southgate whos penalty miss cost us a final berth in Euro 96.
I think that,, no matter what, this England team is a team of the future. The least experienced team in Russia, playing with a belief that the past is just the past and doesn't affect the now. They'll still cop endless hate when they exit the cup, but hopefully it won't stop the development.
Anyway... I can cross one more thing off my list of "Impossible things to see" and hope we get Croatia in the Semi-Final because nobody wants an England/Russia Semi!

Yes penalties! PENALTIES! But Southgate has worked these lads on set plays and you can bet your life after what happened to him he’s drilled them on taking penalties.
Not so sure about the hate. This is a very young team and getting through the group stages was always going to be considered a good result. They’ve already exceeded that in style. But the weight of expectation on them is immense . Jesus Saturday is going to be a nerve racking day! Silverstone will erupt if they win.

When Germany exited, I had about 0.01% interest left in the WC and told everyone ok Belgium will win it.
Now I just want Belgium to win so I can tell everyone I can see the future.

If France doesnt win against Belgium, I swear Deschamps can get a fuck out and be fired. This is our world cup.

You've had a good run England, congratulations on making it this far. I think an England France match would have been too much for the world to bear. It's not like there's been conflict between the two countries in the past is it?

We’re pretty good actually! If the EU would keep their stinky noses out we’d be even better! I’m actually in France, I’ve just been down some quarries near Arras that have just been discovered where the Allies hid and tunnelled under to the Germans when they invaded France. They’ve only recently been uncovered called Carrière Wellington. The Brits lost 4000 men a day for a month in that battle. Lots of Australians, Canadians, New Zealander’s, Indians and South Africans also fought anD lost lives. www.explorearras.com/en/wellington-tunnels.htmlen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carri%C3%A8re_WellingtonI was thinking it would be pretty cool to be in France for a France v England final, but it wasnt to be. Massive congrats to our lads though. They’re a very young team abd even getting through the group stages would be considered a success. So they did really well to get to the semis. They WILL mature and get even better, and football WILL be coming Home! In the meantime. Good luck France!

😱We have been very bad in the past, but this England team is different, they’re very young and were p going to have done well if they passed the group stage. They’ve easily exceeded that. And Southgate is an amazing manager. Watch out in the future! It’s coming home! Wanting France to win, but oops! Croatia just equalised. 😂😂maybe not such an easy team to beat.
