All these people bashing on how Colombia played. Well England just played to lose vs Belgium. As a professional team getting on a pitch with the only thing in your mind is to lose this game, that is the most unsportsmanlike thing to do in my opinion.
You say that, but there’s no proof to say they intentionally tried to lose. Southgate rested players and so did Martinez. If Rashford scores his chance, it’s a draw and England win the group.
What I believe happened was, we didn’t care. We’ll try to win, but the priority is to not to risk the starting team moving forward.
On the other hand Colombia played dirty. Pushes when the ball isn’t in play, digging up the penalty spot, grappling in the box.... etc
So suddenly nobody on the England squad could shoot on goal anymore, like not even close? Oh maybe you are right cause even your A squad didnt create one chance that resulted in a goal attempt on target...the only thing on target was the penalty in the first 90 minutes. And I guess after losing to Belgium everyone cheering and bragging how happy you are that you lost is pure speculation as well I guess.
I'm not saying Colombia played fair. They could have gotten several red cards. Just dont think that you are all saints, is what I am trying to say. You guys won so good luck vs Sweden. Peace
What difference does it make? It doesn’t happen very often in big tournaments that you can rest your main guys and it doesn’t matter what happens! England didn’t play to lose, it just wasn’t the end of the world if they did lose. That being said, it was even more boring than the second half of the Panama game
You speak for the wound, because they thought that we were Panama, which was a piece of cake for you, it was their turn to fight until the end with my beautiful Colombian team. And it wins with valid arguments until the end, not with insults and poor thoughts. We left the World Cup with our heads held high, unfortunately there are people who are unadapted on part and part, what a shame. And those maladjusted people from both countries do not represent the educated people of England, nor do they represent the cultured people of my beautiful Colombia.
What a bunch of clowns, they're wasting time, they better go to a clown contest, sure they win it, with so much expletive, with so much vulgarity, they have the smallest hypothalamus of what it is, that's why they are misfits, because it does not allow them to think, not even to gain with height, those who have thrown here so much rudeness have identified themselves, every word they have said, they are returned like the boomerang, they do not even feel respect for themselves. Surely your English team is not proud of you, they are a shame for your country. Thank God I live in an English town worthy of admiration, with a lot of culture and respect for others. I reiterate what has been said, the vulgar misfits on this page, do not represent the good principles and customs of England, I know many Englishmen worthy of admiration and who equally have admiration and respect, to the case my beautiful Colombia, hurting who to hurt, that simple, and the bad guys on this trip can cry. And to the good Englishmen, congratulations for their triumph. The rest are poor losers in education and spirit.
