This is a great watch. A real advert for progressive football... :cautious:

I'm starting to think there's a full crowd. They're just asleep...

I think I just spent the last 10 mins trying to figure out if there was any regular pattern to the multicoloured seats in the stands or if it's just completely random.... Riveting stuff.

England have at least played a bit higher up the pitch in a 4-3-3 and are trying to knock the ball around in midfield, rather than along the backline/keeper and then channel ball as it was in the world cup. They lost their way a bit in the middle of the half but so far a very even game.

Still struggling to create anything though and assert pressure in the final third. The cm3 aren't exactly showing any incision, and though the front three have been feeding off scraps, all three have looked pretty pathetic so far you have to say.

The commentators missed a trick by not bringing a box of fake applause to turn up at exciting moments.
On the other hand it occured to me, that maybe he did, and there just havent been any yet...

This team is so over reliant on running with the ball. Taking five plus touched before doing something with the ball.

Seems a common theme in modern football all of a sudden it seems the man is faster than the ball... Give me a 1-2 over a pointless dribble any day.
