Yet they beat England. What does that tell you about England?

That we were robbed!

Emile Heskey is a waste of space.
A careless penalty outside the box lead to a catastrophic series of events for England.
I just don't know what people see in Heskey.
90 minutes of toil for nought.

England - 1
France - 2

Too bad England lost. All the lads around here can't party.

Barthez ruled, specially when he defended Beckmam's penalty.

1) England played wonderfully in the first half.

2) Great header from Lampard.

3) France attacked for the first thirty minutes of the second half.

4) England defended wonderfully.

5) Beckham's penalty... it's a good save rather than a miss.

6) From 75 minutes onward, France ran out of ideas. They didn't know what to do. Henry was lost.

7) HESKEY gives away a free-kick.

8) England (understandably) are distraught.

9) Gerrard lets Henry in.

In summary, France were no better than England. Only Zidane looked like he believed. England were robbed... and it's not very often you can say that and it actually be true.

France didn't deserve that.

Until 91 minutes we were beating the best team in the world, and looking (at the very least) their equals.

The important thing to remember is the performance. Aside from the last two minutes it was excellent. Rooney, King, Scholes and Gerrard were world class. If we're gonna have an outrageous piece of fortune go against us... then better it happens today than later on.

If we play like that against Switzerland and Croatia, we'll stroll into the Quarter-Finals.

Unbelievable.

What a bag of wank! We were robbed, and there is nothing more you can say to that.

But full marks to Ledley King - What a trooper! He gave nothing less than 110% - He deserves to be in the starting line up from here on in. Top man!

A great game from start to finish, but that finish...

"I predict France: 2 - England 1.

I'm sorry, but one thing I have notice over the years, is that England is an overconfident nation. This week, is proabably the most patriotic have ever seen the country! Every time we get excited about something, we **** it up!"


Man, I'm sick and tired of being right all the time! plain

Still, it's good for us that Croats and the Swiss drew. At least we're not down and out yet!

We'll murder Switzerland and Croatia.

It looks like it'll probably be Spain in the Quarters now. If we'd have won tonight, then it would've probably been Portugal or Greece.

A slightly harder quarter-final is the price we've paid for ******* Zidane and his ******* right foot.

"We'll murder Switzerland and Croatia."

Ah, but what did I say about overconfidence. It's important that we don't get ahead of ourselves here. Tonight is an important reminder that we must take one match at a time...

Time to turn to Yoda for advice!

"...To the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was!...What he was doing!"

I predict a 2-0 win to England against Switzerland.

Damn I've missed one hell of a match sad

Oh well I must say Zidane's goal was very impressive and so was Barthez's save.

Unfortunatly such a defeat as tonights will shatter the players confidence and what would have probably been easy wins in the next 2 games (judging on their performance earlier) will be much more difficult. I still believe we'll go through, in fact as long as France beat the other two teams also we could draw the next match and win the final one.
