    VAR hasn't changed a single PK and there have now been A LOT of bad PKs given...

    They can't even get a ref to take a look. This whole "clear and obvious" precedent defers WAY too much to the call on the field no matter how bad it is.

    What is "clear and obvious" if not a player being halfway to the floor before anyone grazed him?

    If England holds on, the final is going to be a horror show. Italians diving vs English home cooking.

    The penalty not called on Ronaldo vs that penalty, clear evidence of preferential treatment. Either they both are or aren't.

    Denmark is going full tilt.

    It was "clear and obvious" that UEFA wanted England in the final when they got to play every game in a fully packed Wembley.

    Danes disappointed me... but yeah, there playing in their home field. Expect a rig job.

    (Interesting Italy didn't have to travel a lot, either.)

    England needed an own goal and a gifted penalty from UEFA to beat Denmark.

    Italy are playing against England and the Refs on Sunday.

    More like that other kind of job that starts "R-I-..."

    Still, gotta say I'm okay with England winning. Let those losers cheat it out, watch how much I respect them if they win. The phrase "be careful what you wish for" is perfect for them.

    Maybe there will be a big covid outbreak in one of the teams. Final will be cancelled, no one wins

    I don't know what's worse.
    Listening to every Vito, Tony and Joe honk their horns or listening to
    every 'Caker' telling me how exceptional England is.

    Shameful pk call for Sterling, and on top of that there were two balls on the field which directly impacted that play leading up to the pk.

    I've read up to 90,000.

    Meanwhile, I'll be at a small wedding (also in England) next weekend where everyone but the bride and groom has to wear a mask, tables will be distanced with a six-person limit, and a dance floor is not allowed.

    But 90,000 people will be cramped and maskless inside Wembley (not mention the tube ride there), screaming spittle into each other's mouths...

    I said when they announced the venues that this was nothing but a set up for England to win. I have to go for Italy in the final because at the very least they haven't had to have UEFA cheat to get to the final.

    I personally would have used their sjw logic against them and said you cannot be racist to Danish people because they are white

    João Mario enters the game, is one on one with just the goalkeeper to beat, and be passes the ball back to Ruben Dias.
