Just for ****s and giggles I went back and checked:

18:03 - ball goes in the net
19:32 - ball kicked off

Jesus H Christ these English ****s really could not be more wrong about literally everything even if they tried.

yeah, as an englishman can confirm that early kickoff nonsense was terribly unsportsmanlike and just shows how out of their depth they were. gg croatia take it home with you

Thank you. I appreciate you setting aside nationalism to acknowledge this.

This post and the video had me so confused until I realized that 19:32 was the actual kickoff, not the avant garde performance art that involved protesting delay of
game by delaying the game.

Mate of mine Dan was on Sky Sports News today. He had 'football's coming home' tattooed on his forearm when he came back from the Sweden game.
He then bought tickets to the final.
This morning he added 'soon' to the end of his new tattoo.

Tears for heroes dressed in grey,
No plans for final day
Stay in bed, drift away
It could have been all songs in the street
It was nearly complete
It was nearly so sweet

We still believe, we still believe!

Wait, did he say it after the game (which is fair enough), or before?

If before, time to redo that Harry Enfield sketch The Grumpy Old Men with Noel and Roy Keane...

You never know with the English. They do the dumbest things sometimes. I mean, they tried kicking off with their opponents lying in a big human pile celebrating a goal.

It wouldn’t surprise me if it was after. Nobody outside of Britain seems to understand the self deprecating humour.
Much like most people didn’t understand the whole football’s coming home meme of the past month was very much tongue in cheek when it started.
It didn’t help that a lot of the media didn’t get it either and convinced those people who are only paying attention to the England team every 2 years that it was really happening.

For a team that went into the World Cup with zero expectation, we went out with even more over expectation than normal.

At least we don’t have anyone or a situation to blame this time. We just weren’t good enough.


England’s ‘It’s Coming Home’ is USA’s ‘We believe’. We both know it’s not really serious but it keeps us entertained.

Gary Lineker gave instructions on how to do damage control and now you have slappies running around posting all that nonsense just when you think they couldn't get any sadder

I had honestly not seen that tweet, but yes, you’ve just shown you never understood.

I bet you took the ‘I believe that we can win’ chant seriously too.

If you make a semi in a high variance KO tourney and you don't believe that you can win it, you should get court-martialled and shot.

lol Pete trying to defending it and that Lineker tweet.

It certainly wasn’t a let’s take the piss out of ourself, there was thousands of we can actually win this, what’ll happen if we actually do win it. How will we be able to stop mbappe in the final with his pace etc etc

BBC done an entire sketch on what it’ll be like once we win it.

Even Plop fans after their we are gonna win the league song didn’t say nah just joking because we have never won the PL
