Euro 2024- Lamine Yamal:Wonderkid

A Serbian winner 5 minutes into injury time brought just the scenes you’d imagine.

Is the quality of crossing (encompassing both crosses from open play and dead balls) the most neglected skill in football?

That corner in at the end was superb. It had that “avalanche” vibe about it in that it reaches its destination quicker than the defenders expect immediately after the ball is struck. It doesn’t matter how organised you are in defence, one flick off it and it’s in the net. Unless you have somebody on the post.

The players who can hit those vicious corners and crosses, like Beckham, De Bruyne, Brehme, Alexander-Arnold, Tavernier, these are gold dust. But this is not genius, it’s practice. You see an awful lot of shit corners and shit crosses in football

No changes for England

Kane gets a tap in

That’s brutal defending. Obviously had no idea Walker was there but still.

That is fucking horrific defending

Walker through the gap in Mageeanesque fashion to set up Kane with the aid of a ricochet or two.

Two poxy deflections into Kanes path

The deflected cross is going to bring England to glory

Great to see Haitch up and running

Jaysus Denmark.

This would remind you of the 12 acres with the ball hopping around in the pelanty area

I dislike this stadium and the one in Gelsenkirchen.

Be nice if England brought on some of this EXCITING ATTACKING TALENT they have

That’s a proper hit

Get. The fuck. In.

Well deserved

That’s a smashing hit.

Pickford and his short arms
