Was it you who had said that would happen to the English in this game?

Yup, and England have looked mediocre as hell, but to their credit converted their set piece.

This ref is not having a good game. For those of us who whine about diving, that's why players do it. Sterling played it honestly and didn't get the call.

If VAR was doing their job he would've gotten it anyways.

What a beautiful delivery and touch in by Perisic. It's not over!

Seemed like only a matter of time. England was giving away possession too quickly, should have tried to control the pace a bit more.

That's what you get for sitting back.

Sterling was running the hell outta Lovren the ft first half and they suddenly slow it down.

Game on

England bigly rattled, going need to generate a corner or have a free kick here soon to have a chance.

Henderson is such a blackhole in midfield.

Like the way England play but they really lack quality up front. If they could sub Sterling for a young Michael Owen they'd be a vastly more dangerous team.

It's a tough call with Sterling, his finishing is very poor, but he makes lots of quality runs to open things up. Just shows what a charmed life he has at City since De Bruyne, Sane and David Silva mostly provide him with tap ins.
