The idea behind appointing a tactician like Tuchel was to break England’s long-standing tournament habits of both panicking when in front in big games and simply hoofing it from the goalkeeper when trailing. He has managed neither - this is every England team I’ve ever watched.

Far too defensive, far too early from Thomas Tuchel against a team not just with quality, but who have repeatedly shown they refuse to be beaten. You don’t encourage Leo Messi’s Argentina, you don’t feed their fighting spirit.

A tale of two managers. Scanoli’s substitutions worked a treat. Baffling how Tuchel approached the game at 1-0 up. So negative with both his tactics and his changes and paid the price. Dropped so deep. Completely surrendered the initiative. That was Southgate like.

Can’t call me reactionary cos I don’t care either way but you’ve gotta sack him for that. Genuinely pathetic tactics.

Regardless of the merits of the England subs, you simply can't have that many defenders on the pitch and then: 1) give a known goalscorer as much time and space as he wants on the edge of the box after a corner 2) have nobody defending the back post from a cross Rubbish.

Never seen a team like this Argentina side. No matter how limited they look or how poor they are facing their own goal, they'll simply score however many goals they need right at the end through sheer willpower and aggression. Astonishing to watch every time. An amazing group.

To answer the questions: The moment the ball makes contact with an outside object (in this case the camera cable) play becomes dead and should be restarted with a dropped ball. VAR could have intervened as it was in the immediate attacking phase of play that directly led to England's goal. FIFA, meanwhile, say they’ve "checked the data - no peak on the graph from the connected ball heartbeat sensor" 🙃

For the benefit of those who haven’t seen the review of the ball hitting the camera cable before England’s equaliser on Fox Sports…

I love football. I love late drama. I love comebacks. I love knowing that anything is possible and feeling like we’re watching a steady stream of some of the greatest games ever. I do not love how we are expected to ignore the inconsistencies in officiating and the interventions from VAR, which have largely been heavily weighted towards certain teams and its players. If you’ve watched and followed everything in this World Cup and are still subscribed the idea that it’s all fair, delusionville must be a lovely place to reside.

@TheRedmenTV there have been fewer occasions where @dan_clubbe has been so right, and he’s more often than not right in what he’s saying so there you go, throw the £100m at them and see if it sticks, go nowhere near ‘5th choice at PSG’ Barcola

@TheAnfieldWrap not having Barcola, just don’t see what ‘everyone’ else does i mean he lost his place to Doué easily after losing it to Kavadonna when they brought him, he’s a 5th choice for PSG. Time to spend wisely, not flashy

You’re the ref, a goalkeeper goes down and calls the physio on in the 22nd minute. Half way through the half you’re gonna stop for a drink. Do you a) have the drink while he’s being treated or b) wait two fucking minutes and waste our lives?

Second time we’ve stopped for a hydration break about two minutes after a goal. Just do it a little bit early if you’re gonna have it.

Watching football highlights without seeing the result in the video title or thumbnail will be an issue during the World Cup. ▶️ I've built a website to try and solve this issue. It isn't perfect yet and just a fun project! Any feedback appreciated. ⚽️ spoilerfreefootball.lovable.app
