Game 40: England vs Slovakia LIVE from the Arena AufSchalke. Sunday ITV1 5pm

[Gizmo7]

I feel sick 

[aiston]

Southgate going to claim he doesn't tell them to drop deep again at full time.

[m_fenton]

This isn't the best way to see a game out, even if we manage it.

Was that Gallagher giving away another free kick  

it’s his whole game

Walker getting celebrated for evading the ball 

[JJ72]

Is that their whole team now on yellow? Feels like it

[RTHerringbone]

IF we make this, I have a few starting XI changes to suggest. Jesus Christ.

[enigmatic]

Walker's best contribution to the game apart from setting up the equaliser and it's avoiding the ball 

[aiston]

Toney has to start next game if we go through.

[Gizmo7]

 

[CFuller]

Did Matterface say the next game is on 9 o'clock tonight? 

[aiston]

Gallagher's game is fine if you have a 2 or 3 goal lead. It's horrifying when only the 1 goal

he's in Germany to be fair isn't he ?

 

[Robson 07]

No one in the camp looking to play a hand of poker with Southgate tonight. 

[JJ72]

Love how we're soaking up all the pressure without any problems

Never mind big games, he just never turns up.

Good on the cross I've heard?

[darren1983]

I'm baised, and aware I'm boring everyone, but again that's a big part of what Toney brings - defending his own box at corners 

[CFuller]

Looks like we'll only have 20 minutes to recover from this.

Pretty sure the Spain vs Georgia build-up will be counted in seconds.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Shocking how deep we're sitting. We're inviting pressure from a team who has spent the majority of the game not interested in going forward.

[m_fenton]

This ref 

[aiston]

England fans doing a better job of defending than England

 

[Smallen]

It’s been a mental approach since scoring, this. We’ve had complete control of the ball all game up until then and Slovakia are absolutely knackered and well… they’re Slovakia. Doesn’t make any sense.

[dudester]

Can the engerland fans stop being so cringe with these balls being thrown on.

Whole tournament makes no sense

[RTHerringbone]

I think we can read a lot into Konsa over Dunk, Eze over Gordon and Toney over Watkins. And I want them all to start the next game. And TAA over Walker. Never happening.

Having 1 that closes down is an interesting tactic.

That does, indeed, make you think. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[The_jagster]

Toying with Gallagher was funny but pointless

[Rob1981]

Toney looking like peak Heskey out there. Holding his position on halfway and winning free kicks out of nothing to give us a bit of respite.

A masterclass.

Its nervy but honestly they aren't getting through us. Probably.

I think his performance will go a bit unnoticed, but I think he's been very good. Held it up and he's taken pressure off us a few times. Got an assist too. As mentioned before, would love to have seem him and Watkins together.

[JJ72]

Can we have a striker who can shoot at the goal please?

"Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do" Referring, of course, to the England managerial team

[Vynal Seven]

Job done. On to the next one. 

[Pukey]

And that attack comes from Toney's good play as well

[Andrew_]

The ball should be in the corner for the final minute.

Toney is

Yeah, he's actually not pressed as much as I thought he would, but he's made the right contribution so many times with the ball, whether it's a defensive header, an aimless long ball he's got a free kick out of it or the ball pinged into the opposition penalty area

And as I type this he does that...

[Haguey]

Ooooohhhh

Palmer missing another pass, just waste time

[CFuller]

Never in doubt. 

See you again in 20 minutes, folks.

[aiston]

Toney should start over Kane.

[Redshift]

Bloody hell. Madness.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Dear me. Painful. But we're through.

Peak Heskey 😂

Toney’s technique is on a different level to Emile 

[JJ72]

Amazing victory.  Destroyed the team ranked 40 places below us.  Never in doubt.  It's coming home this time

[Weezer]

Switzerland are going to beat us but Gareth is king for another week.

[aiston]

**** off Pickford
