Expand Hopefully they look after him properly, too many young players burst onto the scene these days then just disappear after a few years. Ansu Fati was the next big thing at a similar age a few years back and he looks like tapering off at 21. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare that penalty given to the foul on Armstrong v Hungary being disallowed. It's either incompetence or corruption - I hope the former. Saying that England deserved the win. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't give it initially then was sent to review by VAR and then gave it. My view was that it wasn't a penalty as it was more Kane kicking the defender than the other way around but the defender's foot was up with studs showing, which Is presumably why the ref gave it. It's certainly a controversial talking point. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,651 Posted July 11, 2024 Share Posted July 11, 2024 Decent game, correct result. England were really good in the first half and came very close to scoring about three times twice by Foden and once by Kane. I fear, though, that Kane is England’s Ronaldo. The Dutch came into the match in the second half but no great shakes. Well behind Portugal and Germany and not as good as Austria or France. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
