Re: Euro 2020 Tournament happening 2021
It was a great event, wasn’t it?
I have to say the right team won. Italy were excellent, showed great resilience and at times were passing England off the park. There only looked like one winner after the first 20 minutes, and England were possibly relieved to get to penalties.
England looked like they went back into the shell and reverted to stereotype in that they couldn’t keep possession, panicked a bit and slightly folded under pressure. They did very well in the tournament overall though.
Maybe scoring so early didn’t help as they seemed to want to sit back on the one goal goal lead, and it’s so hard to change that momentum once the other team equalises.
I thought Henderson was poor, poor Saka seemed to be on another planet and Sterling was a bit like a headless chicken. They all played better than I could though!
The stars seemed to have aligned for England …. no big injuries, a very favourable draw and home advantage too.
As usual, though, some of the England ‘supporters’ were also true to type - booing all the opposition anthems, thinking England is still the spiritual ‘home’ of football, overhyping the team, trying to invade the stadium and fighting, shining lasers in the eye of goalkeepers and then racially abusing their own players
