March 23, 20232 yr You silly boy Shaw gets sent off after 54 seconds after his yellow. Trippier on for Foden.
March 24, 20232 yr That's a really good win, but there's got to be either a severere tactical or mentality problem. I get 2-0 is a dangerous scoreline, but to revert to playing so badly in the second half vs the first half proposal, it does reek a lot of protecting what you have rather than delivering the killer blow. Often happens with England. A different night and we draw that game, when Italy should have been buried in the first half.

Mind you had the Villa version of Grealish arrived at the scene rather than the City version, we'd be 3-0 and game over at HT.
March 24, 20232 yr I can't tell if the 0-0 scoreline tells a story of Slovakia's continued freefall at the international level or Luxembourg's version of a golden age the past few years with consistent decent results against countries you'd expect they'd have no business being in the game with. Also, brutal result for Iceland as the continue to head back towards being minnows again.

Your playing Italy in Naples, one of the hardest tasks in international football, it’s a great result. I don’t know if England fans expect to win every game 3-0 or something 🤔
March 25, 20232 yr This Italy team is terrible though and on another day they get a draw out of that when it should have been game over at HT.
March 25, 20232 yr Author Matchday 1 Results - Friday Group B France 4-0 Netherlands Gibraltar 0-3 Greece Group E Czech Republic 3-1 Poland Moldova 1-1 Faroe Islands Group F Austria 4-1 Azerbaijan Sweden 0-3 Belgium Group G Bulgaria 0-1 Montenegro Serbia 2-0 Lithuania Impressive wins for Czech Republic and Belgium. I think a lot of people thought that Belgium would begin to struggle now but it was great win away at Sweden. Netherlands had quite a few big stars missing yesterday. I think they will still be fine when they get everyone back.
March 26, 20232 yr Author Matchday 1 Results - Saturday Group A Scotland 3-0 Cyprus Spain 3-0 Norway Group D Armenia 1-2 Turkey Croatia 1-1 Wales Group I Belarus 0-5 Switzerland Israel 1-1 Kosovo Andorra 0-2 Romania Heartbreaking for Kosovo. They had a goal ruled out and then missed a sitter in the last minute. I watched the Wales game and they were very lucky to get a point there.
