WTF is Southgate thinking sending Saka up for that final penalty? How??

Absolute madness! What the actual fudge. Three kids in a row. You need people who can keep their cool, ffs, kids can't.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

Worst management I’ve seen in years
Shocking subs
And leaving a kid who barely did anything right the last penalty

A little worried about this, Southgate think Sancho is a penalty taker. Young guy who should be playing, not sure about putting the pressure on him with the pens.

Frustrated Rashford and Sancho weren't on playing.

Knew it was asking too much of cold players. Southgate should resign. That was a gimme.

 

[Daisuk]

Well, on the bright side - that's completely broken an Arsenal player. Feel sorry for the kid, I have to admit. Not his fault Southgate is thick enough to use him.

 

[Kandi1977]

Great great job Gareth! Having your best players on the bench the entire game, subbing on pen takers so late that they don't get to touch the ball.
It's "how not to do it 101"!

 

[Robbo]

Saka? Seriously? I can't get over it. The poorest decision among so many poor decisions tonight. Southgate failed miserably.

 

[Baleforce]

Best team won.

From the first night of the competition they were a class above.

 

[3DSpur]

Wright talking brick.

He can't be a professional footballer if he bricks himself under pressure

 

[Yiddo]

Never should have let the youngsters take the penalties. Experienced players should have stepped up and took responsibility

 

[Daisuk]

But Italy a better team overall this tournament. Deserved the win.

 

[Baleforce]

Amazing that Southgate could fudge up a penalty shoot out so badly, did he learn nothing in 96?

Experience wins shoot outs.

 

[FolkestoneSpur]

Southgate needs hanging out to dry for the whole brickshow that unfolded tonight, absolutley shocking mismanagement.

Sterling hiding.

This.Totally.

Supposed to the superstar, but nowhere to be seen when it mattered

 

[SpurMeUp]

Italy are professional, grind out the result. But Spain and England have better players. Just not as well managed imo. That is management from the whole side - on the pitch as well as off it.

Sterling hiding.

He dont owe the country brick, remember? He all about self and doesnt care what people think of him.
Lies.

 

[Daisuk]

He can't be a professional footballer if he bricks himself under pressure

Only 19 in a match with the entire nation breathing down his neck. Should never have had to take that pen, in my opinion. If he was one you'd usually expect to take pens, sure.

 

[Yiddo]

Southgate has to take responsibility for this going to penalties.

Kane scored his penalty but never turned up again, first 10 minutes was good but the rest he was invisible. Needs to look at himself, Messi, Ronaldo and Lewandoski turn up in big games this is why he is not on that level.
