The lucky lad, that the sub-keeper had already made 2 saves to allow them one mistake. Too 'roostery' by far

Notts County deserve to be going up with Wrexham, would have been a scandal had they not been promoted too

Brilliant sub by the manager to bring the goalie on just for the penalties

The save with his foot was incredible.

Bostock was very good in the game, but that pen...

Maybe that sums up his career. Loads of talent, but too self-centred. Scoring the winning penalty wasn't enough, he had to try something else.

No Modric? Better things to do this week? Ego on that guy….!

Bale might have been in attendance if they’d made it a golf event.

Seeing Redknapp there, can't help feeling he'd have been great to replace Conte for the run in. He's got his faults but knows how to get his sides playing good football.

Think Dele is naturally that colour.

Heard on the radio someone saying Wilson Palacios came over from Miami for this and got carried off after doing his ankle 2mins after coming on!!

Wish I had of seen it advertised a bit further in advance.

I heard it sold out immediately, probably why it wasn't advertised?

Might not have been a bad idea. The togetherness in that team looked fantastic. Harry does seem to be able to do that. I enjoy those Harry’s Heroes shows.

Toby Alderweireld just scored a last minute screamer to win Antwerp the league

An all-time great football moment. Toby Alderweireld joined hometown club Royal Antwerp last summer, as he always promised he would. Tonight, he has won them their first league title since 1957 with this incredible strike vs Genk in the 94th minute! pic.twitter.com/KIysphCZKk
