    Poor defending for the cross. Fantastic header though. Viper.

    Could see that coming. Their crosses to Voltemore (what a surname) are inch perfect. He could have had a couple more.

    Is it just me who thinks Stansfield is pretty crap?

    We are quick on the counter attack (if only Harvey had pace (aka Michael Owen), but the Germans are good at going forward and accurate and clinical. This could be anything. If Germany get the next goal, I think we have had it, and rued those missed chances. German keeper has kept them in it.

    Any sensible nation would promote someone like Carsley to the full job, and then protect that person in the role, but not us 
    Do other nations have such nasty journalists and their pay masters along with a lot of the locals and their uneducated views on football to protect their manager against? 
    The Spanish and Argentine press and fans aren’t the exactly wonderful all the time 
    maybe our managers and players are too sensitive.

    Said this to my wife. I actually said when will people realise that he’s not really that good.

    The German number 10 looks like he's in his mid thirties

    Stansfield needed hauling off before that.

    2-2

    Game over. We get in to good positions and don't or can't score. Germany don't have that problem. Stansfield is crap.

    Good finish. Haven’t put away our chances despite playing some lovely stuff.

    Think we’re in trouble now.

    He's not crap but hasn't had his goal scoring boots with him; He has chased everything down in every game he has been on. Plus when teams decided the crap world club championship is more important for their players than representing their country so Delap wasn't here.

    James McAtee won't sleep tonight if England don't win,
    He should've had a hat trick of goals and 3 assists instead of just one assist tonight. I will criticise Stansfield for not doing a slide for one of the McAtee passes.

    It should never be a Desmond but if you don't finish off good chances you can always get punished.

    German individual skill levels are telling now, also they are well organised.

    This is the European under 21's final there are no crap players in either the German or the England squad.
    Are their a couple of better players that should be here for England, we all know there are.

    Both teams have really been going for it in these latter stages.

    Has been an enjoyable game, regardless of the outcome.

    Germany win the crossbar challenge with an assist.
    England dominate 1st half but Germany looking very crisp in 2nd half.

    Frustrating for England but both teams attack with pace and I prefer this tournament to any other football going on at present.

    Cross the ball into the edge of the six yard box and bingo. Great ball from the sub Morton and guided header from the sub Rowe.

    We are coming to the business end of the match and fresh legs may see us home but definitely Anderson and the goal scoring Elliot have been the stand outs in the tournament for England along with the skilful Hutchinson.

    Haha thankfully the 2 players that looked absolutely dead on their feet at full time were taken off
