England need to ignore Columbia's antics and focus on the job at hand. Colombia have actually been a bit disappointing so far; without James they seem short on creativity and seem focused on making things scrappy and hoping for a big mistake form England.

EDIT: And, as I type that, Colombia finally go too far with the roughhousing.
 
Henderson really needs to calm down. Now he's gotten a yellow for mixing it up too often. I don't know if he is being targeted or just easy to wind up. Southgate might have to hook him.

Agree. And yet another foul!
[doublepost=1530645903][/doublepost]Stop arguing with the ref. Can't we just watch football?
[doublepost=1530647161][/doublepost]What a niggly horrible match. Not flowing at all.
Nearly gave away a goal.
 
Oh dear.

Small surprise: Colombia equalise in those dreadful minutes after 90 - those dead minutes between 90, when time becomes elastic in its length - and what will now - undoubtedly - become Extra Time.
 
Thoroughly deserved victory'

We have thoroughly deserved the victory. We have not created a lot of chances, but we have not had to go into fifth or sixth gear.
 
You know you got old and times have changed when England plays it safe to reach the pens..

I don't think they are playing it safe. I think they are hanging on by their fingernails. Colombia played destructive, dirty football for 92 minutes and wore England out. They got a lucky goal at the death and now they seem far more confident.

The body language of England sure dropped after this equalizer.... with England’s history in penalties their players also might get more nervous.

As they say in US sports the momentum is on Colombia’s side.

Just joking ;)

They said That the English playeds ran ~6km more than Colombia.

Other than that I just watched from around 70th min and it seems I haven't missed a cracking game. Equalizer (and Uriels shot before) was worth seeing though.
