    What. A. Save.

    In the end it didn't count for much because they scored from the resulting corner but after 90 long minutes of largely doing nothing, it was bloody brilliant.

    Trippier and Kane our players of the tournament.

    Maguire was fantastic. Not only in the air and defensively but coming out of defence. The blokes an absolute unit but he can play as well. Thought Ali, Lingard and Sterling were quiet and they have to step up against Sweden. Kane was immense.

    The reaction on the streets is incredible, just for reaching quarters, Imagine if we win the thing

    Great scenes here in Finsbury, cars tooting people dancing in the streets

    Finsbury or Tooting? :wink:

    If tell you what, I'm well and truly knackered after that.

    Would add them two and Maguire to the team of the Tournament

    If Columbia hadn’t spent the first 50 minutes pissballing about niggling and cheating they might have actually won that.

    Me to Kelly as the players were coming forward.

    Kane-100% goal no worry
    Rashford-100% goal no worry
    Henderson-if someone misses it will be him
    Trippier-WTF Vardy is out there why give it to a defender he will 100% miss
    Dier-Noooo this penalty takes us to the quarter final Dier will 100% miss.

    So happy I was wrong about the last 2.

    Think its more the fact we won a Penalty Shootout, this win means that Southgate has met his target and anything further is a bonus

    Winning a shootout though, just doesnt happen as an English fan so should be celebrated

    Also not ashamed to admit when Diers penalty hit the back of the net, I fell to floor crying

    I love how Dier scored and he ran straight to Pickford. You'd usually see the scorer go running off taking all the glory. A real team effort from back to front.

    Southgate is just what we needed. So calm and always says the right thing.
    More and more impressed after every interview.

    Regardless of what happens in this tournament, he has to stay.

    Excellent. Missed most of the first half driving daughters from beavers. Will spend Saturday afternoon driving to Southampton :) Party starts at 6... Might leave at midday to "beat the traffic"
  • Excellent words from Southgate there. Very clever answers to all questions. Clearly an intelligent bloke.

    Sweden will be fit, strong and organised but it’s a game that is very winnable.

    Now starting to believe - if we can win a penalty shootout anything can happen! I'm going to get back to England now for the quarters and hopefully we can be there all the way to the final. After so many disappointments this is an England team worth believing in.

    IT'S REALLY COMING HOME ISNT IT?!
  • I think the Sweden game will be like a premier league game scrappy hard and frenetic

    2-0 England Kane and Kane

    I went running off myself so didnt see it till the replay yet for a moment it didnt look as though we knew how to celebrate winning a shootout lol!

    Definitely.

    Shout out for Dele and Ashley Young who I thought had brilliant games.

    Eric Dier, I take it all back.

    I take it the penalty shootout doesnt count towards the Golden Ball?

    Nah. But Kane still clear by two goals.
