cityexile Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Gutsy in the second half and saw it out, some real quality defending. Coming out in the second half would have liked to see them display more control, we did the ‘sit back’ thing again, but real quality result. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Exile Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Fine win. First in Italy in my lifetime. So very Bristol City that Grealish missed that sitter to make it 3-0 - and made the whole of the second half a nervous mess. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Imagine if England were managed by Warnock, we’d have no players left on the pitch after 66 mins with this ref. Good win England. Kane ‘the magnificent’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 England held on. Superb in the 1st half England went into their shell in the 2nd period, with only the hold up play of Kane (England's man of the match) and a couple of runs from Saka showing any positivity. No complaints about the bookings for time wasting and subsequently sending off of Shaw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open End Numb Legs Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 A well parked bus for the last 20 mins. We were 1st to every 50-50 ball in the 1st half so not really surprising that we fell off the pace a bit. That Grealish miss - if it had gone in I don't think the Italians would have recovered so well with their own crowd on their back. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossi the Robin Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Thought it was going to be usual second half story as it’s been in big games many times It was to a certain extent but managed to pull through this time Gutsy performance, well done all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid in the Riot Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 We were solid and gutsy after the sending off. Was never worried Italy would score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something for everyone there, excellent first half and the second was nervy enough to give people things to complain about. You know what I’m a Southgate fan, we’ve just won away against a team we usually struggle against, yet I am slightly disappointed. Found the second half opening up old wounds around ball retention, and the backs to the wall stuff disguises it a bit. Still would’ve taken that before the start though 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with how non stop this season has been with the world cup , you would think we would of brought on subs early no matter the result . That said I can't remember pickford being troubled that much and we pretty much gifted them their goal . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Ref was never giving that second yellow to Shaw until their players complained. If he was then he'd have done it straight away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
