Or Norway breaking down play is working? England have possession advantage, Norway goal shots advantage.

Kane's constant whining is doing my tits in. Only thing he and Bellingham are bringing home is Euro professional diving, Ref, ref, throw arms out. FFS get on with the game.

Well done England. Now i hate Kane even more. Thought he was a whining, diving cunt at Tottenham. Son made him look good. Watched a lot of Bayern Munich and he started to shine and grow on me. Now this world cup he is back to throwing the arms out and crying "Ref, ref, Geez a foul" Fuck off, have a yellow for diving.

Possibly, but for the 90 minute game they definitely deserve the win, but in the extra time we played like we should have played and we then deserved the win.

I'm not really into footie, other than the World Cup and Euros, but I don't think Kane is any better or worse than the others. Sadly, grabbing your alleged kicked limb and falling, screaming and crying to the floor is the norm for any of them. :roll: I feel embarrassed for them at times and it's what put me off of watching league footie some years ago.

I thought this was quite funny. I'm pretty sure it's not racist. More laughing at racists

I forced myself to watch the last few minutes of the game. There was some commentator who was incomprehensible, it took a while to realize he was actually speaking English.

He wasn't using any words that were immediately recognizable as English. I have no idea WTF he said, he could have been reciting his grandmothers christmas pudding recipe.
