Disappointing but can go out with our heads held high. No shame in narrowly losing to France.

Definitely easier to take when we go out and we're shit. It's the hope that kills you.

Yeah, played well and didn't deserve to lose.
Feel for Harry Kane. He was excellent tonight and mostly throughout the tournament.

So we’re equating referencing Batty’s penalty miss as being on the same level as the racist abuse Saka, Sancho, and Rashford received? That ain’t it chief. Not sure who you’re arguing with as I don’t think anybody said this, but I agree that ain’t it. Not you: user Gray.

I’m also grumpy
Edit: but also proud. It’s hard to take, but I’d much prefer we played with some bravery than being super conservative and losing on pens.
To outplay France is no easy task. And Mbappe was not in the game at all.

Feel for Kane, England played well on the whole. Tight game, so it goes. No shame in narrow loss to World Champs

As usual when they play a top team they lose. Nice pen though…

Probably not the time to try and wind people up Clem. Troll in the morning if you have to.

I'm pretty sure everyone already thinks he's a cunt already so it won't make any difference.

Played very well against 13.
Tough on Kane to take the 2nd, and against his own keeper too, must add a bit more to the calculation, shit happens.
Sure he'll shake it off.

So, it really is looking like a Croatia vs France final. Again.
It was a good match, but I felt England switched off for a few mins leading up to the second French goal.
Would love for Morocco to beat the French but can't see it.

Are France always so niggly? Maybe I'm biased but a lot like Italy, it feels like other teams can push it a bit further than we are ever permitted to.

I'm fairly sanguine about that. It's disappointing and the ref did us no favours, but I don't feel cheated in the same way as the many losses on penalties.
The best players in this team are young and the future has never been so bright for the England team. The French are the best in the world and we probably edged it on balance of play. I have no idea why Southgate took Saka off, they were terrified of him and we immediately lost the threat on the right. Bellingham also superb. Foden had a good second half.
Actually feel for Harry Kane which is a thoroughly unpleasant and uncomfortable sensation. Doesn't deserve that legacy, football's very unfair. He was good tonight and didn't let anyone down this tournament.

Deffo can't blame Kane. Can't rely on winning games by getting pens. England definitely the better team, but just seemed they were missing one thing to go for France's jugular.

To take the record and his team to the World Cup semis and he’s absolutely bottled it. No wonder hasn’t got his move to a big club.

Would love for Morocco to beat the French but can't see it. the midfield got a big leggy at exactly the wrong time, Southgate was maybe 5 mins late on subbing Henderson

Bit harsh on Kane that. Think once the dust settles it will be Southgate people are questioning. Both Foden and Saka we' re running the French ragged and were subbed at a bizarre time.

Give Harry Kane a Pizza Hut advert so they can put something under 'Honours' on his wiki
