petehinton Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Ref did his best to try and ruin tbat. Severe main character syndrome. ******* *****. What an amazing group of 21s. Trafford, Colwill, Madueke would be my definite to go on to play for the senior squad in a major tournament. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been so harsh on Colwill, especially after last years play off final. What a double save from Trafford, outstanding. 26 clean sheets last season for Bolton, he’s a hell of a talent. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how, after lying down for 5 minutes with such a bad injury that he didn't move for ages, the striker had a miraculous recovery to take the pen. #CHEAT. What's that now? Ladies champions, U17 champions and now U21 champions as well? Did the U19s win as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowshed Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 1 hour ago, bcfc01 said: Can't disagree that its a crap game so far - and so different from what England have produced in this tournament. Doesn't help that the two centre backs have a bad habit of slowly walking out with the ball and stopping more often than that. Its deliberate, when Colwill moves it slowly and puts his studs on the ball he is inviting pressure but creating a trigger. Players drop in off the trigger into patterns and this moves the opposition to create space in advance of the ball to hit, or if the opposition don't react an overload to advance the ball. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kit Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 There was the softest of touches but it was of no consequence. In slow motion you see the touch on the spanish player which I think is all the ref saw to make his decision from. In real time the spain player had a bad touch, felt the slightest of touches on him and you can see a second definitive motion where he starts to dive. The bar is so incredibly low if that is a penalty. The good thing was that it created a bit of drama and made the win so much sweeter, as good as a last minute winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Spain have deliberately set about disrupting England and trying to kick us off the park They are sneaky and are disrupting us by I am not impressed at all with Englands play acting very very poor from England like others have said really poor advert for tournament football . about time we started having just the manager & pysio in the dug out only and subs further away , to many on the sidelines = mob mentality.

Davefevs Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Disgraceful pen decision. Contact does not mean a penalty / foul. As bad as the u20 decision v Italy. Ref seemed intent to make it all about him all 105 mins. Bad for both sides, although Spanish very petulant. Well done boys. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Until the final few mins, I thought the Spanish keeper was the better of the two and thought he'd good for City. Elsewhere, when does the Ref's jurisdiction end? I had visions of cards being flourished in the car park as he set off home. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North London Red Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 2 hours ago, MarcusX said: That’s awesome did you go for the tournament or just happen to be out there? It was an impulsive last minute decision to go, made after we won the semi final on Wednesday. Georgia was one of the only countries in Europe I haven’t visited, which helped swing it. I found some flights which weren’t too badly priced (the boy band Blue were on both of my flights, as they were performing in Batumi last night), and managed to get a match ticket yesterday. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had this one happened outside the box the game would’ve continued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
