    England vs Ukraine

    Hard one this. England look there are plenty of attacking options up front but leaky as a sieve at the back. So I predict a high scoring match like the Sweden one.
    England should just edge it.
    Hard Brexit now!

    Ukraine are a poor side, but not quite as poor as Sweden so does that indicate a draw?

      Incidentally, the England squad have started yapping off, which always comes back to bite them. Things like players saying they can win the tournament, and the manager comparing Rooney to Pele.

      They should keep it low key with minimal expectations, it has worked for them so far.

        Indeed, they are a bunch of cretinous arrested adolescents. A quarter-final exit is all they should really hope for.

          To me, just qualifying from the group is a decent result. Which they haven't actually done yet.

          They might go further, but raising expectations is always a psychological shot in one's own foot when it comes to England.

            After a scrappy win against a woefully poor Sweden team, a draw is the best I’m hoping for. A bit of hype has crept in too and would be no surprise to see an England elimination.

              The problem with Ukraine is they will be mighty motivated for all this. Being at home and getting all the support will mean they will perform above their usual maximum so England will have a real fight on their hands. Saying that without Shevechenko I can't see them scoring more than once.

                Can't see England not scoring against Ukraine - whatever you say about England teams they can usually score goals. It's holding onto the lead, staying in possession, basic ball control, defending against set pieces etc etc where they fall down.
                Just have to hope they score more than Ukraine.

                  Woy says he’s going out for the win but in reality he’ll play it very tight.
                  Camp sounds like it’s happy so that gives some hope.

                    England are poor, they beat Sweden with a lucky goal, I reckon Ukraine will beat them fairly comfortably, Rooney will be sent off after getting frustrated because he can't score on the big stage. 2-1 to Ukraine, Hodgson sacked. Obviously English fans won't see it this way, they think they are the best and delude themselves despite the blatant evidence.
