It happens in many matches, even at ER, hoping for a lucky break in time added on or wasting time depending on the circumstances.. Players know this so a bit of attention seeking IMO. Toney has done nowt since returning after his betting ban so lucky to be there at all.Quote:

Wonder what would happen if we did something like that to a group of passer-by’s on a Saturday night after a few beers! 🫣
You just know he’s going to play a blinder in their next game.
Seems incredibly harsh for Demiral to get a ban after scoring two goalsQuote:

Not sure I'd call it just childish. It's a fairly offensive thing to do especially when you consider the influence someone like Bellingham has amongst kids.Quote:

English refs hopeless as usual, clear booking there
Germany have had some cracking strips over the years I have a fake italia 90 one it’s a crackerQuote:

Should be at least 1 up.
Yeah, poor refereeing, it doesn't matter if it's the first minute or the last minute, a booking is a booking.Quote:

No corner ?
Too many good keepers at this tournament. Standard is exceptional. Needs a few Zibis to spice things up.
