In toast of England
« on: June 13, 2021, 1505 UTC »
In kudos to the English Football team's 1-0 win over a solid a Croatian squad this morn  (though it did take 4 Cityzens starting with one scoring, too bad he didn't do it 2 weeks ago  :-\) in their Euro opener here is their '98 Euro song (a remake of their 96 World Cup song).  One of the best football songs ever.  The spot kick missed early in video is by now Head Coach Gareth Southgate.  The goal scorer today, Raheem Sterling, was made an MBE by the Queen on her birthday yesterday.

Ingerland have a great young team. Croatia weren't on par at all. Not a massive footi fan here but with all the lockdown nonsense coming to an end it's good to have something to celebrate.

C'mon Ingerland...!

Stretchy -  Agree with you on the English youth, especially Foden - I think they reach the semifinals.  My thoughts are that the Belgians and the Portuguese are the class of tourney, with Belgians to win.
