And there looked to me like there was no contact as well

clear contact which caused the forward to stumble....no complaints from Rodri....he knew what he had done.

Need to see it again but he seemed to trip himself when his left foot got caught in the turf

Plenty of goals in the tournament so far. May change for next game and tomorrow

As ever...your convenient still images show what you want them to show....but they are still image's that don't show the contact moments before, that caused the striker to break his stride and get his foot caught in the turf.

As I said - need to see it again because there wasn’t a single replay that showed a touch by Rodri and the player kicked the turf and swan dived

Good start to the Italy game, read a very good story about how Albania have been built as a team under there manager. Sylvinho. Could well do a job in the Prem.

Love the way Italy are popping the ball around quickly and constantly moving position to drag the Albanians around.

Having seen Germany, Spain and Italy play in the last couple of days I'm a lot less confident about England's chances of winning the Euro's. I don't think our slow turgid style of football has any chance of lifting the trophy.

But, but, if we’d of played any of the teams those 3 faced and beat them, we be getting told we had an easy draw.

They're playing Albania.
I wouldn't be surprised if some Italian players don't even know where Albania is.

Hang on though....we were playing Bosnia the other day and couldn't manage a similar style, tempo of play or approach.
Having said that, I will now temper my enthusiasm for the Italian play by saying that, despite them playing with a tempo that I'd like England to adopt, they still struggled to create open opportunities in the second half and could quite easily have come unstuck in the dying minutes of the game.
Of the big nations who have played, Spain have been the most impressive, by a long long way, given who they played. Netherlands and Englands turn to shine today.

With TAA starting in midfield. Not sure tournament football is the time to start experimenting, but there you go.

Really hoping England can get off to a good start tonight, will take a 1-0 win with a disappointing display, but really hope not.
Whatever his team selection, from now until the end…In Gareth We Trust.

Hasn’t he played TAA in the midfield the last 4 games he has picked him ?
