    Carlos del Cerro Grande the fourth official is the only non German officiating at the England V Ukraine game, should the officials have come from a neutral country neither England or Ukraine have knocked out of this completion, lets hope there are no controversial calls that decide the outcome the game.

    Can't see the issue with it to be fair. If we're moaning about refereeing decisions come the final whistle then we probably haven't played well enough to progress anyway.

    I’d have had a few more doubts had Sweden qualified but I feel it should be a comfortable win, it’d be the most England thing to do though to beat Germany and get knockout here. With 6 or 7 defensive players on the pitch I can’t see us conceding.

    Yes at the end of the day if we perform it should be in our own hands.

    I'd say the opposite actually. It's not so bad getting knocked out by the eventual winners.

    Assistant Ref is a certain Stefan Lupp

    Hmmm

    Almost.

    Some sports media reckon a revert to a back 4 and a start for Sancho tonight.
    Hope we see plenty from Magic Jack and Mason today as well.

    Recent games against Ukraine have been very tight, either 0-0 or 1-0.

    Great ball from Sterling to Kane.

    Horrible to watch, again.

    Why are we not properly going at these?

    If it stays at 1 - 0 it will get worse, made a great start to the game but Sancho is getting little service, its all coming through Sterling, a good half time talk from Southgate and another goal this lot wont come back, but at 1 - 0 the game is far from won .

    We should be turning the screw. 1-0 isn't a safe scoreline. We seem so cautious

    Pacing ourselves mate. We look so comfortable. It would be good to get the cushion of a second goal early second half though

    What's that now Jose? Luke Shaw shouldn't be taking set-pieces you say

    Hey, Jose so Luke Shaw is crap, right? Oh, wait that's another assist.

    Might be a bit biased but imho Shaw's been our player of the tournament. Solid in defence and creates chances left right and centre

    Sounds like there's plenty of England fans in the crowd making themselves heard singing "Que Sera Sera"
