After careful consideration…. neither.

After 45 minutes we were the better team (even the Dutch coach admitted that). We fell apart after the goal and the substitutions.

So, our National XI was horsed, fairly readily, 4 goals to nil, by a Dutch side without Sam Lammers - HE was not even on the bench !!

Perhaps the country should be grateful for small mercies. 

 

Koeman, probably, is keeping him up his sleeve, as a wild card, for the Euro Championships.

And a boy who has yet to start shaving scored the winner.....(for Brazil).

 

In Scotland, we would still be 'nurturing' (or some such rubbish) his talent, and would continue to do so, until he had a full beard, three weans -to different girls, natch- and had developed a prodigious drouth.

McGinn has a point though: Channel 4 beam all England games throughout the UK but you cannot see Scotland games on terrestrial tv.

That's not England's fault though.  And McGinn did say "Channel 3", which is probably a reflection of his IQ.
