Full back choice instantly vindicated.

You dancer! ???????

Absolute class from a capacity Wembley crowd to boo the Italian national anthem… bellends everywhere

The men in white however .. dream start… now to HODL..

Great goal, now in for a dive fest from the Italians as they fall over every time they get touched ?

 

[fundy]

Italy wide open at the back here and not adjusting

Agreed about the goal, but why so cynical ??
Only one team in it so far!

The donkey needs to be there!

Can tell tripper has been playing under simeone .. mastering the dark side of the game

 

[fundy]

massive difference in apparent fitness levels again, several of the Italians look leggy before half time here, just need to keep stretching them

This is a really good game , finals normally very cagey but the early go has got Italy going for it but England comfortable at the moment - just got to be careful of Chiesa and Insighe

Good to see the ref trying to let things flow

The 1st 15 minutes of the 2nd half are going to be key.

I'd love to know what Mourinho thinks of Luke Shaw now.

Hard to believe the first half was that straightforward, Italy offered very little threat at all, lets hope the 2nd halfs the same!!!!

I’d like a second goal, though. My nerves won’t stand a second half of us playing largely without the ball like we did the last 20 minutes of the first.

This.

To be fair, the ref has let so many fouls and dives slide tonight, from both sides. Made it quite an interesting watch because he's not buying it.

it really is there for the taking, their 2 full backs keep getting caught out of position, and the two centre halves are completely exposed, as you say the sooner it comes the better though! Jorginho looks half fit at best, they really need another body in there
