What just happened? I am in shock.
Czech do nothing for 89 minutes, England defend well for 2 and 7/8th games, and then one mistake and it falls apart.
Brilliant. Now all the haters will be elbowing each other out the way to be the first to laugh at us. Again.
Love supporting England.

england has really improved this time, and this u21 side has some decent players in struddige and in the defence, thats the positive thing

You're a good lad Kroos, it must be said. Thanks for not rubbing it in right now.
I'm fuming, mostly with myself for having watched this game when I could have been doing so many better things, only to witness yet another kick in the balls.
Feel free to resume normal duties tomorrow

they will until they mature, because they lack the experience, sure the talent of martinez and thiago is top class, but so is götze and özil

I was watching the US Open until I saw the scores in the ticker. Let me guess, both park-the-bus pussy football teams are still tied 0-0 with only 15m left. England manages to score the first one. Being that they're pussy-football-park-the-bus team, they sit back and counter them Czechs who at this time are sending everyone to attack.
England are so SHITE, they CAN NOT put the Czechs to bed, AND the Czechs's pressure is intense that it is them who score, 1-1 game on!
The "future stars of England with $20 million worth Henderson
$18 million worth Jones and company are forced to go all out to get a winning goal, AND THE CZECHS catch them with one of their patented pussy-football-counter-attack goal. BANG! Czechia 2-1 England The delusion is mental in here. Who is "shocked"?

the first team already has young player (25 and below0 who will make up the spine of the future first team
Pique and ramos at the back
Busquets,Iniesta,Cesc and Silva in midfield
they will bring along the likes of
Botia,San Jose,Ruiz,Monreal.Api,
Thiago,Javi,Canales
has i said they are only lacking a class young striker.

Its amazing how you manage to comment on a game you didn't even watch. Congrats as always on providing some thought provoking analysis though Puro.
Just finished watching highlights of Spain. What an awesome team.
I'm off to bed, night fellas

Didn't watch the second half, but by the look of things this was a classic choke due to lack of concentration at the end of the match. Ironically, England were punished in their best match so far, just they had punished the Spanish in the first group match. England were more fluid by replacing Mancienne in the middle of the park, but probably more vulnerable, too, as a consequence.
The positives for me where the defence, not just the solidity and reliability, but the way they defended. Smalling in particular looked very comfortable on the ball, had some excellent passing range and arguably was the best 'playmaker' of the team. Very modern defending that should help the senior team in the long run, too. Sturridge was good, and there was some good wing play at times.
Negatives have been covered sufficiently. And let's not forget that they qualified for the tournament at least, while traditional powerhouses like Germany did not (thanks fuck Rainer Adrion...).

Yea can't really think of any obvious striking talents. Perhaps Paco.
Bojan does have ability, even tonight you could see that. He's a better player than Adrian for sure.

Paco is indeed the biggest hope for the CF spot for spain

Belarus took the lead from a setpiece goal...poor defending from Botia and Alvaro, and now Spain are huffing and puffing but struggling to break down the Belarus bus.

The problem with la Rojita is the strikers. With Nsue, Adrian, and the mighty Bojan leading the line the goals were never going to flow.

spain will lose, can't go down a goal to a team that defends like this

WOW! Spain doesn't look any good against a team who knows how to behave on the pitch.
In South America, right now there's a tournament going on the U-20 Copa Libertadores and last night I watched lots more quality between Alianza Lima vs Flamengo. The first half was insane, then the Brasileiros lost their cool (how dare Alianza Lima stand up to them and score! ), they shoved and yanked the ref when things didn't go their way.
Look at Spain tying the game through an own goal at the death.

Spain take the lead with a brilliantly worked goal. Adrian again...I was definitely wrong about him, he's delivered in this tournament.

Yeah I wouldn't have expected five goals from him. Still don't think he is a great striker per se but he the best of the bunch and is having a good tournament.

I don't know about anyone else but the more I watch Thiago the more I see De la Peña, not Xavi or Iniesta. He just has that extra bit of arrogance and nonchalance.
