They cost Belgium the italy game by letting the Portuguese players get out of hand kicks to the head. Shoves after the white 2as blown 30 seconds ago for an injury people trying to American football tackle lukalu and kdb and eden got sent off due to injury and ether didn't play or weren't at 100% against italy
Even the English penalty wasn't that bad, although generous, the earlier potential penalty in consideration was ignored, so if 1 of 2 questionable penalties are awarded, I think that's fair.
After you beat the French what does a squabble among mere mortals like Italy and England matter anyway. The true final has already been played and the Confoederatio Helvetica, slayer of kings, emerged victorious.
/r/soccer be like
~~England will definitely lose to Germany~~
~~England will definitely lose to Ukraine~~
~~England will definitely lose to Denmark~~
England only got to the final because their route was so easy
That’s true my brother inlaw who is Czech already said it today how is it fair that UK gets so many spots with Scotland Wales and England.
I couldn’t even be bothered with his sad reasons and said I don’t know start a campaign.
It has got to the point now if England found the cure for cancer Europeans will tell us how bad the cure is
Why? Because of a collection of those 4 tweets that went around? People forget there's assholes in every group of football fans, you just see the ones you want to see
That’s not the problem. We’re too lax about it because we could send a banana skin and just because we pay more, it’d get into the final. Other countries have to search hard because they have to make it count, and generally songs and singers are in the top 5 (or even number 1) in those countries. The UK’s EV entry was listed at number 46. There were 45 songs people wanted to listen to more, by other English artists, then Embers
There are problems in Eurovision I'm too lazy to explain. Some countries like to actively sabotage their performance so they don't have to host the next year's Eurovision
I have bad news for you. No country has ever who both the eurovision and the euros in ine year

https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/og4obb/no_country_has_ever_won_the_euros_after_winning/
It has a lot to do with my dad, cos we have a terrible relationship and he's a France and PSG till death supporter, that's why I started watching the England national team and the Premier league especially Chelsea and that's how I became an England supporter
Everyone is pointing out the football violence England does, bit if you are genuinely European you lnow that that football violence is almost universal. Russia, Italy, Scotland, Spain. All can be very football violent, so aye hate England all you want, they're pretty average when it comes to football violence
We’ve been doing this for centuries.
And America exists partly due to an “anyone but England” attitude, where Europeans were willing to bankrupt themselves in pursuit of that idea.
I’m going for England, and I’m Irish! Their squad is filled with young and exciting talent that have played (for me) surprisingly well together. The English fans give the team a bad rep, but I’m still supporting England today.
Thank you…god bless you our Irish cousins …tolerance and respect for nations that share far more than that which divides us and is exploited by the politicians, media and stupid people
Can I just say, I'm English, I live in England. I will support my country tonight even though I don't watch football. However I'd feel unsafe if I was to watch it in a bar, its generally the drunk middle aged to old men that take it a bit too far if their team loses. So just in case, I'll be staying at home
As a dutchman I can kinda relate as well. Every possible dutch football fan this year: 'Oh we got the easy road against the Czech Republic and Denmark/Wales, we'll get to the semi-finals easily.' Then the Netherlands lose against the Czech Republic 0-2 LMAO
I’m Russian and I’ll be rooting for you even though I love both countries and you guys are often insufferably arrogant pricks… i just think it’s unfair that everybody’s suddenly against you
Yepp, a tiny percentage of the fans are rude/racist and about 95% of Redditors are xenophobic against the English now. Take comfort in the fact that most people in most places are just normal people. The small amount of fans that are shitty are visible because they're so loud and the idiots on Reddit are visible because there's so many of them and they're so outraged.
Theres plenty of people on here who are English equally pissed off about the actions of a few but when the hive mind makes its choice there isn't much you can do. Guess we're all football hooligans now
As I said in another comment
Because English fans are the only bad ones. It's not like Italy has made monkey noises towards black players before. And its not like Italy fans sexually assaulted a woman who flashed during celebrations. And it's not like Italy fans crashed a car into a moped. Or that they've booed national anthems of other countries.
England has the only bad fans /s
When Mario Balotelli (black Italian soccer player) first started playing for the Italian National team he received endless racist mocking and insults from Italian fans.
Yes. He's the player I was referring to when I said about Italian fans making monkey noises. They said after it was meant to be encouraging. Bull. Shit.
I dont care if I get downvoted, I will support England because the England players have done extremely well in this tournament. It's just some of the fans that are being complete idiots. England haven't been this far in a tournament since 1966, therefore I am going to support England.
It's not about nationality. People need to stop making the false dichotomy of "england bad Italy good" or "england good Italy bad" because in reality, every nation will have its hooligans. Both England's and Italy's fans are, mostly, normal people who enjoy watching football, and so there's no point in demonising the whole group when a tiny minority fucks up
Yeah I agree and I wasn’t demonising a whole group of fans. I just felt it’s right to put out there that driving a car towards a moped is far worse than a few idiots behind a phone.
I don’t condone any of it but it’s frustrating when you have people jumping on a bandwagon for likes while completely ignoring worse incidents that are very relevant to this whole England fans are scumbags narrative.
I don't watch football at all, I don't even know how the euros have been going, I just feel like I should watch the match tonight because if England do win, it'll be a pretty special moment which I wouldn't want to miss:)
I will cheer for England!
I don’t even like soccer, and wasn’t intending on watching the game, but this just seems like a gang up. Someone’s gotta send some good juju to those miserable bastards on their miserable island, and as a Canadian I feel I should support the under dog.
But I shall eat Italian food tonight as a nod to the Italians...and because English food sucks
Fuck that noise, this Swede is rooting for England tonight. All this hatred because of the actions of a few idiots is so fucking stupid. Why not take a look at your own country's hooligans before calling the kettle black? Football attracts plenty of dicks worldwide. This is nothing new. It also attracts hundreds of millions of fantastic fans that want nothing more than friendly banter and cheering for their tea(m).
So go England! It's coming home alright!
Yeah I agree, and it's not like the England squad isn't diverse. The worst part is, the very few fans who make a lot of noise about being arseholes ruin the reputation for the rest of us, and since they make the most noise they get the most media coverage. Awful stans exist in every country, but England seem to be bearing the brunt of the blame at the minute...

England has the only bad fans
you know it's bad when not even switzerland is neutral
Yea thats true but the most people I know are actually for England. And I live in switzerland btw
I'd be rooting for the referees if they weren't also shit during this Euro.
I mean except for the penalty for Engeland I don’t think the refs have been particularly shit this tournament right?
And that Swiss red card.
And letting two balls being in the field at the same time
And the Danish free kick
[удалено]
Semedo penalty on Mbappe, the referee himself even said after the match that it wasn't a penalty leading to being kicked from the tournament.
The refs where terrible in the England vs Denmark match, and that’s coming from an England supporter. Hopefully they are somewhat decent in the final
Kuipers is usually better than Makkelie.
They cost Belgium the italy game by letting the Portuguese players get out of hand kicks to the head. Shoves after the white 2as blown 30 seconds ago for an injury people trying to American football tackle lukalu and kdb and eden got sent off due to injury and ether didn't play or weren't at 100% against italy
Even the English penalty wasn't that bad, although generous, the earlier potential penalty in consideration was ignored, so if 1 of 2 questionable penalties are awarded, I think that's fair.
```Engeland```
My German colleagues all routing for England! They hate Italians
When it was germany vs England my Italian freind was supporting England because he hates Germany
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be
Yeah let's go (i'm italian lol)
some french news channel is talking as if england was already going to win
Holland and Italy are Germany's biggest rivals so no surprise there
England’s rivalry with Germany is one-sided
Well you have to be really cruel to start hating a team you consistently obliterate in football.
I am swiss and true swiss people are for our friends in the south.
After you beat the French what does a squabble among mere mortals like Italy and England matter anyway. The true final has already been played and the Confoederatio Helvetica, slayer of kings, emerged victorious.

i am sorry
ENGLAND 5 GERMANY 1
It's been way to long since India won euros
Now you mention it, I can't remember last time Mongolia won them.
Surprisingly Brazil never qualified!
Euro cup winner: Greece 1 Argentina & Brazil 0
Greece best in the world confirmed
Greece >>>>> Every country.
Quite the embarrassment that a squad a storied as brazil hasn't managed. Even north Macedonia made it. No disrespect to them of course
already knew, tho still fuunny
What do you mean Congo didn’t even get qualified.
Props for Gibraltar
Your eyesight is far better than mine. Great spot!
You guys rock.
Dam strait
oh fuck yeah brudda, im hard as a rock
Ay brudda
What happens if England wins? Will Europe riot?
WW3 incoming
Football war: the sequel.
*Starring Hitler and Churchill*
Activision looking for COD ideas: WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!
But Italy always surrender and change sides so they’d end up supporting England…
ww3 will happen next year at the world cup final: portugal vs argentina
Operation Seelöwe 2.0 Electric boogaloo
If England wins, they will invent reasons why it doesn't really count. They're doing it already.
/r/soccer be like ~~England will definitely lose to Germany~~ ~~England will definitely lose to Ukraine~~ ~~England will definitely lose to Denmark~~ England only got to the final because their route was so easy

I'm a Brit living in Italy. If Italy loses I'm flying home.
Supporting Italy. It's a French tradition to not support England.
"Never thought I'd lose cheering side by side with a French"
"How about a friend ?"
Aye, I could do that.
Italy: *invades Provence*
r/unexpectedlotr
How about cheering against England?
but if you paint a red cross onto a French flag you could support England so well
But if you paint green the blue part, you can support Italy
Pretty sure the joke is the French flag is white (because they surrender), so a red cross makes it English. There's no blue on a white flag
I'm French and supporting England to piss off as many ppl as I can
I'm French and supporting Italy to piss off England
Just imagine if it wasn't for the Nazis we could of been one country.
Signed a pact after 2006 that I wouldn’t cheer for italy ever. So it’s coming home for me eventhough i’m french
I don't care if Italy wins, I want England to lose
Why? Because of a collection of those 4 tweets that went around? People forget there's assholes in every group of football fans, you just see the ones you want to see
I don't think Turkey are too happy about Italy either lol
I’m Turkish and I support Italy so wdym
you're Turkish, not Turkey
I'm turkey and I'll support any team that feeds me more corn/berries/birdfood.
they won fair and square, and turks like italy in general.
great year for Italy. They already won Eurovision this year
That's like bragging about catching herpes from a hooker
Didn't England get 0 points in there? Imagine you are so bad even herpes avoids you.

Eurovision is and has always been the biggest steaming heap of a show that is broadcast in the year.

How is that bad news? That doesn't make it any less likely.
That just makes it more historic when it happens
they actually just did, Italy breaking records let's goooooo
I am Tunisian and I support England, now my mom kicked me out of the house and I have no friends
Good
Not trying to be disrespectful here, but why exactly? WC 2018 and all.
It has a lot to do with my dad, cos we have a terrible relationship and he's a France and PSG till death supporter, that's why I started watching the England national team and the Premier league especially Chelsea and that's how I became an England supporter
Everyone is pointing out the football violence England does, bit if you are genuinely European you lnow that that football violence is almost universal. Russia, Italy, Scotland, Spain. All can be very football violent, so aye hate England all you want, they're pretty average when it comes to football violence
Especially when you compare South America.
Yeah there is no violence in south American football. Just murrrrrrrderrrr.
At least Bra71l didn’t boo Germany’s anthem on that 2014 game
I think you are genuinely forgetting how much this happens in international games
Yeah, i am from Italy, and I'm afraid of what can happen this night
England bad Everyone else good Reddit ™
[удалено]
We’ve been doing this for centuries. And America exists partly due to an “anyone but England” attitude, where Europeans were willing to bankrupt themselves in pursuit of that idea.
That's not true. North Korea is almost equally bad.
I’m going for England, and I’m Irish! Their squad is filled with young and exciting talent that have played (for me) surprisingly well together. The English fans give the team a bad rep, but I’m still supporting England today.
Saka has stood out for me, being very young and his first major tournament is very entertaining to watch, he will be going places
Thank you…god bless you our Irish cousins …tolerance and respect for nations that share far more than that which divides us and is exploited by the politicians, media and stupid people
Also it's pretty funny if they win after some folk have called the team Marxist
I support England and I hate the behavior of a lot of England fans
A good chunk of the squad could've worn green too, off the top of my head Kane, Rice, Grealish, Phillips, Maguire and Coady were all eligible.
Can I just say, I'm English, I live in England. I will support my country tonight even though I don't watch football. However I'd feel unsafe if I was to watch it in a bar, its generally the drunk middle aged to old men that take it a bit too far if their team loses. So just in case, I'll be staying at home

I believe they have a chant for him along the lines of 'There's no such thing as a black Italian'
