yeah TBF they didn't deserve the win today, they were mostly very poor. Particularly their touch and control.

They were terrible, really terrible. Passion aside, up there with the worst performance so far.

If they held on for the draw that would have been a success as they played really poorly with loads of missed passes ...... the suicidal tackle by the keeper broke the camels back as they were barely hanging on with 11 men on the pitch

In the game against USA,Wales didn't turn up till the 60th minute.
Today they didn't turn up at all, no sympathy I'm afraid, they were 2nd best at everything..

I'm going for 0-1 at half time and a barnstormer second half for England to take it 3-1.

If either team fails to score a goal, it should be judged on 'points' scored by three pitch side judges.

Evenly matched match no? If anything in it the yanks have a slight edge and looking more goal hungry.
