England plays all but 1 fixture away from Wembley. Must be nice when every other country had to travel all over the continent. Fucking UEFA
I didn't understand this shit. They could have made the whole tournament in UK and that's Ok. Always was so.
But if they want to play all over the Europe (I like the idea), then the eliminatory games (or at least semis and the final) should have been on neutral ground. Paris would have been perfect for the final. Between the 2 countries, easy to come from both ways.

I can tell you that thing was definately not a penalty.

Maybe Juventus during Moggi years got those.

I find it funny that english was making fun of that italian player who faked injury and now themselves only manage to get the win with dived penalty.

Yeah Sterling was blatantly looking for contact, and it was barely even made.

We’ve been the better team but thats a shitty way to win it if it ends like that. I’d be fuming if that was given against us.
Sorry man, to see the whole shitstorm against your team. Don't take it personaly.
I rooted for Denmark, but I need to admit they here pathetic after the goal. And I will root for Italy.

Pathetic. Italy’s midfield should eat these lot for colazione, but I’m a bit worried Mancini might overthink this.

Also, this Immobile against this Maguire is a ridiculous mismatch.

Ridiculous penalty, but england was the better team overall and as a neutral this final has potential to be a banger. Still think england is a favorite even in final, although I would love if they somehow lose on penalties.
Of course England is the favourite, they are playing at home, ref and var are on their side. Bookies have them for x1.72 and x2.10 for Italy to win it outright

Deserved loss, though the English were horrible.

Denmark severely lacks in squad depth, and individual players who can change a game on their own, though Damsgaard certainly has shown promise in that regard.

Football is about winning, not about "deserving to win".

Its a huge scandal that in the age of VAR that a penalty is given in semi final in the euros for a zero-contact dive, which should never have happened anyways, since there were two balls on the pitch at the same time. Sterling litterly dribbled right past the second ball. Why wasnt the play stopped?

Its a disaster and it takes all credibility away from the refs of the tournament.

Not even Juventus in the 90's/00's would have gotten a penalty under those circumstances.

Sterling and Kane are the biggest divers in the EPL anyways, everyone knows it, except this awful ref it seems.

I still cannot digest this.


Only way to wash this injustice is for Italy to beat England in the final. It still doesn't give much to the Danes who were robbed of their opportunity to be there themselves....

Dickheads on the pitch and lowshit lifes on the stands. Using fucking lasers on the Danish players. I suppose it is what can be called English mentality.

Dutch referee for England games is always a bad idea. That is almost like an English referee. All 50-50 calls went England's way, the English players knew what they can get away with. Thats a big advantage.

Hopefully the final will have a more culturally neutral referee.

EDIT: Just checked. The final also has a dutch referee. Of course, UEFA will always oblige. Barella & Mancini need to tell the rest of the team how to deal with playing against 12.

The England-Germany game also had the same stupid Dutch ref.
