I watched it and thought it was a great game. England certainly deserved the win, but they made us work for it! :thumbup:

Sad to see the Tartan Army heading home, not for footie reasons obvs, but some of their antics and marches have been brilliant to see! :thumbup:

I initially thought the changes to the starting 11 was good, but Saka didn't have much joy and didn't think Rashford was at his best.

Defence is well dodgy and I'm sure it would of benefited from a wise old man like Maguire. We are definitely lacking good penetration up top, unlike the other biggys.

But, jobs been done and we shall see.

Dreadful first half, but they'll come out all guns blazing, and I reckon grab 3 or 4 goals! :thumbup:

If we do score and it goes to penalties we've got no chance against Mpasi!
