"It felt like England had that in the palm of their hands at times." - Sorry, what? At what point did England ever have the game in their hands last night? They were pretty much outplayed from minute 1 to 90 and if it wasn't for Pickford would've lost by more than 2-1. What game was this reporter watching?!
@@thirteentimes365 at 1-1 and 20 minutes to go they had momentum and Spain were down their (awarded) player of the tournament. I think Olmo was better personally but Rodri took the award.
@Ligerpride Being level at 1-1 doesn't equate to having the game in the palm of your hand, though. When you're leading, then yes, you can say a game was yours for the taking, but not when things are even and you've been battered for most of the game.
@@WillCamx awful in group games teams 2 goals scored invited pressure on to them, if not for last minute goals or pens to save them England wouldn't of made final. Played awful all through tournament. Can't win anything in that manner
@@Mohawkmike I agree with the first part of you reply. But England have had successive manager in the past 56 years and with that similar players of their day elevated to greatness without ever having won anything. So it’s more than just management.
"We have the best squad on paper !" 😂😂😂 That is what the british media tells you because you count everything in money spending ! How many english players are going to be in the tournament 11 ? I don't see one and that is the reality. "They are playing so good in their club " Yes !!! Who is playing beside them and who ist coaching them ? You british will never understand ! Germany 7 trophies, Italy 6, Spain 5, France 4 !
@@davidalankaltwasser7524 England are great on paper but let down by a poor coach. Players like Bellingham foden kane would get in any team if on bloody form
English*** Do you forget how many countries there are in Britain? Only one of them wanted them to win last night, and it was the English. Also, don’t forget, Britain gave the game of association football to the world. Scotland produced the passing game and introduced the game to the South Americas.
Mate honestly I think that's a silly point to make. One player's performance doesn't make a team. That being said, kane was absolutely nowhere in this whole tournament. Starting Kane was almost preemptively praying for a penalty. Which is all he is good at for England apparently.
Aww bless they go so quiet now...wheres all the confidence gone and self assurance. Humbled again 😂 winning isn't for England hasn't been for 60 years. Lucky to even be in the final
All the fans in this video was very respectful honest & gave Spain the credit applauded them , plus ENGLAND have a WORLD CUP 🏆🏴 only 8 country’s can say that & England can
This nonsense luck that took England to the final left them alone. I knew from the day Spain won France they were champion already. There's no way England could stop them from winning the trophy. France was Spain worried and not England. Easy win for them; England goal keeper help them that we didn't see some obscene scores today.
grow up france were terrible the whole tournement probably worse than England, When we scored and was on the front foot spain looked worried, but as always we dropped deep. we played into their hands, If we were honest it was an awful tournement and every team were bang average.
@@terrypankhurst7601 You know nothing about football. France was ugly but still more solid and dangerous than England. England did the job but would not have made it through to the round of 16 on the other side of the table.
@terrypankhurst7601 This's why your keep going without trophy for 50plus years. France that has won alot of trophies in recent years, you are here looking for others to partner your awful performance in the tournament.
That comment ‘on paper England are the better team’ eh? Wtf, based on what? Please someone tell me. It’s a totally and utterly delusional comment to think the man for man, on paper or whatever that England are a better team
Some of these England fans were watching a different match. When will they learn they are on a par with Denmark and Greece 1 trophy ( all respect to those countries) an ordinary team that had a flash in the pan in 1866 lol sorry I mean 1966 it just seems that long .lol Forza Italia we will be back and win soon .
Yeah it is as though we deserved to win...we were at best average throughout the tournament! Kudos Spain, they showed that they deserved a win throughout the tournament
Had no right being in that final. Lucked our way there, 45 mins of good football all tournament, leading for 34 mins the entire comp, one shot on target in each euro finals. Under Gareth we are passive, ponderous and absente of structure and attacking ideas. His loyalty to underperforming players and in ability to react in game is a huge issue. Bare minimum with this team is reaching finals, what he has done hasnt been success but the bare minimum.
Greetings from Germany near Cologne. This is an amazing report. Angelina highly competent, a nice way to talk to fans. These fans here are brilliant, giving transparent arguments, able to analyze the match, very fair. Congratulations to those who have given their comments here, you understand a lot about football, you are patriots but no nationalists. The main concern is to win the next time. Unfortunately some English fans outside the arenas in Germany were different. They called our towns "shitholes", showing models of spitfires to remind us that we lost the war. They celebrated Germany's defeat against Spain, at least this was an own goal. I'm very sure that Engand would have won a final against Germany, but they preferred Spain. The Scottish conguered our hearts, great fans, 30,000 of them marched through Cologne many of them dressed traditionally and playing bagpipes. We were enthusiastic.
The difference is spanish good skill players can play as a team,Englands same players find it harder to play that way, excellent spanish team well deserved winners, very pleased with getting to our second final regroup dont give up go again,great comments and attitude from english fans all happy with the result.🇪🇸⚽🏴
It's more than just "luck" running out. It's the gaffer & the football they play. Since I started watching ⚽️ in finals it's 🇪🇸11-2🏴 • Middlesbrough < Sevilla ('06) • Barça > Man Utd ('09 & '11) • Atletico > Fulham ('10) • Atletico > Chelsea ('12) • Liverpool < Sevilla ('16) • R. Madrid > Man Utd ('17) • Liverpool < Madrid ('18 & '22) • Man Utd < Villareal ('21) • Chelsea > Villareal ('21) • Man City > Sevilla ('23) • England < Spain ('24)
That's true Most England Players dont have a mentality of winner.Refusing to lose at any cost.Without that England cant win cups they will be just challengers nor winners.
Careful what you wish for. If you think someone else is going to have them playing like 70s Brazil you’re in cloud cuckoo land. Next up USA. High pressing front football at the end of a long season at 3pm in Orlando? Yeah, good luck with that.
People don’t see Pickford was one of the problem he can’t even kick the ball to the midfielders. John stones was shaky I don’t know why. He look lost. He was so afraid and many of the players were so afraid of losing none of them performed well.
Can someone tell the naïve young man at 04:44 that we're not guaranteed to win just because it's our 3rd attempt. 'Third time lucky' is just a superstitious trope (for want of a better description) and not an absolute. I'd hate for him to have to go through the rest of his life believing that he will always win on a third attempt ;)
Spain had to play Italy, Germany and France whereas England only had to play Mickey Mouse teams. We had the best players yes but we need to focus on playing as a team one unit that's what counts.
Disgrace england even got to a final. I'm not even joking Scotland, Poland, Hungary etc could have made it to the semis with the draw england got. Needed Extra time to get past slovakia, pens to get past switszerland and then a ridiculous penalty call to beat the Netherlands. Got shown up as a bang average team against Spain.
Southgate isn't hard headed enough to leave his unfit captain and some "favourites" on the bench for at least half the games played!!!! Watkins and Toney should have been the 2 main forwards rotating!!!! Bellingham should have been benched while Foden played his usually position, Saka and Gordon on the wings!!!! Palmer and Mainoo playing midfield, Rice is not yet a defensive midfielder, Dier or Stones could have been a better choice!!!!
@@Monztxrwhat chances, had like 20% of posession first half because your entire team stood around their keepers area like traffic cones waiting for god knows what to happen, scared to attack, scared to make plays, scared to play football. Extremely boring to watch. 2nd half once England decided to stop pretending to be a bunch of stones they actually scored. If they played that way from the start maybe they would have stood a chance.
England played against weaker teams than Spain and won them having some luck, yeah is true, they weren't a great team for some reason or another for most of the people (included me), BUT: they were in the finall, many other teams have arrived to finalls because of luck, luck in football plays a big part, and I love the menthality of England supporters so positive, objective and realistic about Spain being winners cause the played better the whole tournament, and that kind of menthality what England national footbal team needs and how they will win an international tournament soon (I hope), you acknowledge what you think is not working and how others make it work and with positivity you fix it, improve it and go for the next one with all your heart like other teams. ALL MY RESPECT TO ENGLISH FOOTBALL YOU'R GREAT (but for now we are better 🤪)
Tactically - waiting to go behind before chancing a leg up front played into Spain's hands. Starting with maybe Watkins and, crucially, Palmer - and reverting to Kane late in the game - would have been conducive to England's chances. Southgate should have started with his changes and changed to his starting XI, more or less. Commiserations to the players who gave their all, no sympathy for Southgate who squandered their talents, and congratulations to Spain who were worthy champions all the way through the tournament.
In my opinion building a tea, around Harry Lane who was average in this tournament and one or two other good players is wrong approach. You need to build a team with good depth of players who can adapt with major players missing. Going off England's across the entire tour a,ent will mean unless they improve they will get beaten badly in the world cip. One idea is to increase the number of playing fields and increase funding for grassroots football. Ltys be honest 1966bwas a long time ago so it is poßinle but has failed many times since. Maybe e should take a page out of Spain book as woman's team won the world Cup and men's team have won multiple titles.
What about the challenge on Nancho, exactly the same. Then the Penalty claim at the corner when Rice pulled his man down. They were not robbed, they were just shite.
Underperformed in tournament , Southgate, terrible as usual , but , thought we had a good first half , and was getting a bit more confident as half was ending .
