Blimey, you've joined us, you are suckers for punishment. England are | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
out of Euro 2016 after losing to Iceland and Roy Hodgson has | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
resigned. A traumatic night for English football, the inquest has | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
begun and these three have plenty to say. First, here is the action from | :01:12. | :01:19. | |
Nice. COMMENTATOR: One group of players freighted in Iceland watched | :01:20. | :01:31. | |
every group. Roy Hodgson has reverted to an England side that | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
started the tournament and played so well for so long against Russia. The | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
differences Daniel Sturridge replaces Adam Lallana. Kyle Walker, | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
Danny Rose, Dele Alli, Captain Wayne Rooney and Harry Kane comeback in, | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
plus Raheem Sterling, in football and finance Sterling has to perform | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
better. Continuity is key for Iceland. They have fielded the same | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
team as in all their games so far. Gylfi Sigurdsson is the best-known | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
and the only one from the English Premier League. Gudmundsson's | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
Charlton were relegated from the championship. England expects and | :02:11. | :02:19. | |
showed against a nation at its first competition, punching well above its | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
weight and with a population equivalent to roughly Leicester. | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
Maybe that is one good reason for England not to be complacent against | :02:30. | :02:31. | |
the arctic Foxes. Storage, through to Sterling, what a | :02:32. | :02:45. | |
ball. Sterling, was he brought down by Halldorsson? The referee says, he | :02:46. | :02:56. | |
is. Sterling won the race. A great ball from Daniel Sturridge. Just | :02:57. | :03:04. | |
gets a foot on it and the keeper clatters into him. It is of course | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
the captain, Wayne Rooney. WHISTLE | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
And Rooney scores! Perfectly placed into the corner, it is the perfect | :03:19. | :03:29. | |
start from the players with the Three Lions on their chest. Wayne | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
Rooney stepping up, using all that experience, makes that look so easy. | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
You could feel the pressure he was under. | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
Wayne Rooney has a perfect record on in game penalties for his country, | :03:45. | :03:52. | |
that is now seven out of seven. England need to keep it tight, it | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
will force Iceland come out and attack England. Gunnarson, expect a | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
long throw in to be launched into the box. | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
That is exactly what's going to happen. And it's helped across goal. | :04:11. | :04:23. | |
Throw in, flick on, goal for Ragnar Sigurdsson! | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
What a response from the underdog this. Awful England defending. Easy | :04:29. | :04:39. | |
as one, two, three. Look at this, catapulted it in, a flick on, nobody | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
going with a runner. It's not as if they haven't seen them do this | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
already in the tournament. A great, cultured finish from the | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
centre-half. And for England it threatens to be quite a long 90 | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
minutes when they can't hold a lead for 90 seconds. And so the game | :04:58. | :04:58. | |
begins again. Walker, two against three, Walker | :04:59. | :05:21. | |
finds another option. The ball bounces pack of Skulason. | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
Rooney. That was a test for the keeper. A chance now for Alli to hit | :05:28. | :05:46. | |
it and didn't he just. He sits out of this one at the edge of the box | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
and hits this one sweetly. Look at that the technique and confidence. | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
Gunnarson, sees Saevarsson moving forward. Here is Gunnarson. It was | :05:56. | :06:09. | |
left by Dier, come to Sigurdsson. Iceland have turned it round to | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
lead! There is disbelief right around the | :06:12. | :06:23. | |
ground from the England fans, and Iceland supporters. Great play here, | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
far too much space, look at this. You have to get tight to him. Cahill | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
can't get there. Just placed it, but Joe Hart should save that. Needs a | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
stronger hand. Just can't keep it out. England one, Iceland two. | :06:40. | :06:49. | |
Sterling, that was clever movement. Kane. Alli and Sturridge over. Over | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
to Sturridge. Can you find Raheem Sterling? Others are there to help | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
now. Sturridge in, Harry Kane! Saved by Halldorsson. Better, better, | :07:03. | :07:10. | |
better. Definitely better. Sturridge shaped himself nicely. Good save | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
from the keeper. Skulason down the side, just pop it | :07:14. | :07:31. | |
in like a server. They keep the ball very well. Gunnarson. No direction | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
on that one. A coming together between Rooney and Saevarsson. | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
Almost crept inside rather than outside the post. Skulason. Joe Hart | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
would have seen that so late. Kane had to keep it, Alli had | :07:49. | :08:01. | |
strayed offside. Rose, being held and pulled by Gylfi Sigurdsson. Rose | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
wanted to take it quickly, Sigurdsson stopped him and he gets | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
the first yellow card of the match. Rose did well, trying to play as | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
quick as he can. He fouled him, Rose is up on his feet quickly. Wants to | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
keep the momentum. In from Kane, Smalling! He couldn't | :08:16. | :08:29. | |
direct it, he won it. Again, another teasing ball in. Smalling can get up | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
but he can't get the direction. Walker. Backs himself to beat | :08:33. | :08:48. | |
Bjarnason. Rooney! Off the knee and into the ground. Frustration rises. | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
It is, painful, really painful right now. | :08:55. | :09:01. | |
The fans break-out into Don't Take Me Home. The players have to get to | :09:02. | :09:14. | |
work. The referee didn't like that challenge there and the card is | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
coming out of the pocket for the Liverpool man. He picked his pocket | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
that, he had to foul his opponent. Smalling miscued it. Iceland's | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
corner. Sigthorsson, awkward, a big customer. You just have to take that | :09:32. | :09:38. | |
ball at its highest point. You shouldn't be holding, just go and | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
win the ball. Iceland's first corner. Bjarnason. His team-mate got | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
in his way but it's not away yet. It hit Hart. The overhead hook was | :09:49. | :09:54. | |
going in and it struck England's goalkeeper. It is another massive | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
let off. Absolutely nobody picking up... Look at this for an overhead. | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
Fantastic effort there from the centre-half again. | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
Walker. Sturridge. Just enough on that from Skulason. | :10:11. | :10:17. | |
Sturridge. Alli! Always underneath it. | :10:18. | :10:27. | |
It's a good ball in, just leaning back. | :10:28. | :10:39. | |
Kane to Alli, Alli caught late. There is a yellow card for the | :10:40. | :10:50. | |
Iceland captain. Harry Kane on the free kick again, which won't please | :10:51. | :10:51. | |
some. Kane wide, this time. It was never | :10:52. | :11:04. | |
anywhere near on target. A tired looking Roy Hodgson. It certainly | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
is. Don't be looking at the watch yet. Vardy, first chance he's had. | :11:10. | :11:17. | |
Looked good tackle from Ragnar Sigurdsson. Outstanding tackle. | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
Vardy, we know about his pace, he has to get this exactly right. You | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
will just be tackle. -- beautifully timed tackle. | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
This is embarrassing for England now. Gunnarson,. Stunning to see a | :11:36. | :11:51. | |
team playing with such confidence, way above themselves. They are | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
getting so close to another piece of history, Iceland. | :11:57. | :12:06. | |
Good touch by the other Bjarnason. Gunnarson, Gunnarson steps inside | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
Wilshere. The save from Hart. It could have been a goal. Look at his | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
run from deep, determination, he has the power to shrug off Wilshere. | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
Gets his shot. Joe Hart comes to the rescue. It's happening for Iceland. | :12:27. | :12:35. | |
Hart stays back. Didn't have to make the save, but on another day that | :12:36. | :12:41. | |
might have been creeping in. Wayne Rooney, the captain of his country, | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
is making way for 18-year-old Marcus Rashford. | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
Rashford, Rose got in his way. Rose was fouled. | :12:52. | :13:07. | |
That's gone in the wind. Dear oh dear. England have nearly gone. | :13:08. | :13:15. | |
That's just unbelievable. Gudmundsson, still has the energy to | :13:16. | :13:29. | |
run with it. Rashford. Rashford goes on, but a drop of the shoulder and | :13:30. | :13:38. | |
it comes off Saevarsson. Someone in an England shirt showing something. | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
Why wasn't he on the pitch earlier? A great run from the young man. He | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
will take the corner. It wasn't a good one, it is a goal kicks | :13:48. | :13:56. | |
Iceland, who are nearly there. His run here, Rashford, just that little | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
bit of cunning nests in his play. The great tackle, in the end, to | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
deny him. That is it, time up for England and may be Roy Hodgson, | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
unless they can create one last. Alli. Sturridge. Sturridge's cross | :14:13. | :14:24. | |
to stop he is missed. Vardy got a flicked on it, corner is the shout | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
and corner is the call. The last chance. The ball into the box, what | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
about that for a bit of defending? Joe Hart is up. Harry Kane's corner. | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
Hart didn't get to it. It has gone behind. England are out of the | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
European Championship. And England's embarrassment is Iceland's ecstasy. | :14:49. | :14:59. | |
This is surely as Baz as it has ever been for England -- that. Maybe | :15:00. | :15:10. | |
worse than losing to the USA in 1950, and Norway in 1981 and that | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
commentary. Roy Hodgson, Wayne Rooney and the boys took a hell of a | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
beating. And after last week, they will be loving it right around | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
Europe. England out of Europe, it is a theme! Well done, Iceland. They go | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
on to Paris. They will play France. They deserve everything of the | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
success they are enjoying. England out. England embarrassed. England | :15:41. | :15:50. | |
won, Iceland two. Yes, England humiliated and out. | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
After the final whistle, Roy Hodgson delivered this final statement to | :15:57. | :15:58. | |
the press. We are in the results business. My | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
contract was always up after the Euros. So now is the time. One else | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
to oversee the progress of this young, extremely talented group of | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
players. They have been fantastic and they have done everything that | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
has been asked of them. When I arrived, I was told that players did | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
not turn up to play for their country or that they would pull out | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
at the last minute, but I have not seen any of that. These players love | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
to play for their country and their commitment has been on questionable. | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
I have been asked to speak on their behalf. They arrived with me as part | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
of my coaching team and they will leave with me. I am sorry it has had | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
to end this weight with another exit from the tournament. These things | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
happen and all I can do is wish everybody the very best and hope | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
that you will still be able to see an England team in the final of a | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
major tournament fairly soon. We have been unable to do that. Thank | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
you very much. There can be no excuses, England | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
were beaten by the better team tonight? The result cannot lie. We | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
had 95 minutes to put right. We had to take some responsibility and | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
myself personally, I will take responsibility, I should be saving | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
at least two goals in this tournament. It alters in a bad | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
situation and we were not to recover. Some of the best players in | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
the Premier League on show, why can you not gel, why do not want it as | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
much if that is the difference? What you just said is not the case. It is | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
not a question of wanting it, there is nothing more than wanting to do | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
well in this tournament. They are just words and I have said before | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
the tournament, they are just words. We have been in a good place in a | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
lot of tournaments, but we have not ultimately done it. We will get a | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
lot of criticism and we deserve it. It is about growing as players, a | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
lot of young players and people who will learn from this and hopefully | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
quick and try and bring English football back to where it belongs. | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
But right now, we put it as a low point and we will have to take that. | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
Is this your lowest moment in an England shirt? Obviously, the night, | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
it is. I think you cannot compare it with all the -- with other | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
tournaments, it is always disappointing when you go to a | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
tournament but we are all gutted. With help we let a chance that. We | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
believe we had won the game -- we believed we lacked a chance slip. | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
With hindsight, was it a mistake to rest so many players against the | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
packet? No, I do not think so. Going into the last 16, we were confident | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
we could win that game. -- against Slovakia. The night, it has cost us | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
in not getting the chances and not creating so many clear-cut chances | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
to get back in the game. But we fought and we tried. It is | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
disappointing, but we have to move on. We are a good team, we know | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
that, and we have to move on and look forward. | :19:17. | :19:18. | |
I cannot say it is as a prize, I always said to the players that is | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
the loss of the is if you do a good team performance, even if you are an | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
underdog, you can always when fashion that is my the loss of life. | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
Even we created some cleaner goal-scoring chances than England's | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
did even if they had a lot of possession. We have a game plan, we | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
believe in the things we do. I think it is the belief and the power we | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
have. Together as a team. It is the greatest moment of my football | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
career. And he was one of the stars and | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
congratulations to Iceland. Where do we start with England in this | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
tobacco? Well, that was the worst performance I have ever seen from an | :20:01. | :20:03. | |
England team, ever, from start to finish. We were outfought and out | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
thought. We were out battled. And we were totally hopeless for 90 | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
minutes. And I said after the three group games, I did not think England | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
was good enough. I argued with you and Danny and Stephen, I did not see | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
enough in those performances. It looked as though Roy was making it | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
up as he went along, he did not have a system. Tactically inept? Yes, | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
players in the squad who did not deserve it. How can you pick Jack | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
Wilshire? He has not played 90 minutes over a year? 140 minutes | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
this season, how is he fit enough to represent England? He brought him on | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
at half-time to save the game. After taking him off after 50 minutes the | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
other day because he was not good enough. He has put his neck on the | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
line for James Sterling who has not performed and played for his team. | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
Harry Kane on corners in the first game -- Raheem Sterling. From start | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
to finish, it has been hopeless. Rio, what you think has gone wrong? | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
You look at these players, some very good players. We see them every | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
week. They play against footballers that on paper and the clubs they are | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
at, they should not compare. How can it go this drastically wrong? I | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
agree with everything all in just said. Embarrassing, to be honest. If | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
you get into a tournament and you do not know your best team and | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
formation, you will run into trouble. It was proven in all the | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
games we played, we just get past with 90 seconds to go. On paper, we | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
should have put outside is easily. One of the biggest problems other | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
than not knowing your best team and shape, when we got into wide areas, | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
with full-backs especially, we had no real idea. There was no real loss | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
of the ad idea of where to run. There was no, Harry Kane is in the | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
box, and they will run off him the other side, there was no finesse. No | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
inventiveness in any of the play. Going forward. I was excited by this | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
England team before this tournament and I was led up the garden path a | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
bit because qualifying was so easy, and you believed the hype. But I am | :22:21. | :22:27. | |
buying into youth. I did not expect to win this tournament and I did not | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
say we would have a chance of winning it, but I thought because of | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
the young players we have got, we would have a vibrant work ethic, as | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
individuals especially and at club form, I thought we would have a | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
chance of coming out of this tournament with a little bit of | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
positivity. Absolutely gone! I have lot -- I have watched a lot of teams | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
at this tournament with a mixed bag of talent. But most of them that | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
have done well have been really well organised and had a game plan. | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
England did not seem to have that. I have listened to them and they have | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
hit the nail on the head with every word and the one thing that stood | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
out for me is that I do not think Roy knew what he was doing, I do not | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
think he knew what was his best team at any time. I do not think he knew | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
what was his best system at any time. And I think his loyalty to | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
players has cost him not only his job, but what has cost is a really | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
horrible way of going out of the tournament, in all honesty. Those | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
players have let him down. Which players are you talking about with | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
the loyalty? Wilshere, Sterling, Cahill? Harry Kane as well, | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
fantastic season, he has not performed at the tournament. Jo Hart | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
as well. He has stuck with players. The one that sticks out massively is | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
Sterling. You have a manager and he has so many players to choose from, | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
you would bury your selection perhaps as a squad, and by and | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
large, some blame has to go on the players as well? Yes, as players, | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
knowing a lot of the players in the dressing room, they will take | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
responsibility. At the same time, you have to be guided. I play for a | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
manager at Manchester United, when things left, things did not go well | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
and it showed me managers mean a lot in a team. He sets the tone for the | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
players to carry out his ideals and ideas. Our players caved tonight. | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
Yes, you can talk about England players being under pressure, we | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
have all been under pressure and had to perform under pressure. They | :24:33. | :24:35. | |
caved and the manager caved, he should have brought on a lot earlier | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
Rashford. He did more in five minutes than anybody in the previous | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
85, 86 minutes. Everybody caved tonight. It is not about pressure, | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
we are blinded by our Premier league and we think it is one of the best | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
in the world for talent, it is not. We are totally and utterly reliant | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
on foreign players and foreign managers for the excitement. We are | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
not as good as we think, the players are not as good as we think they | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
are. There has got to be truth in that. Let's look through the game. | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
Defensively, we will always worried going to this tournament even though | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
they has not been pressurised much in the group games, it happened. | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
This was the game they played earlier in the tournament. It would | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
have worked on this every day since getting this draw. They would have | :25:26. | :25:32. | |
seen that. It is not about the Aron Gunnarsson, Walker. You will say, | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
the second, we will clean-up. You breeze is him. That it is not about | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
the ball. Going forward, he is a very good players, but he needs to | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
and those questions defensively. Organisation is vital, concentration | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
at these poignant moments, you have to do that. Iceland have done that | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
in every single game so that is no surprise to England. What is Gary | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
Neville doing? He was one of the best defenders we have had so surely | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
they have had to work on defensive set pieces all week because that is | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
what Iceland have been good at. Why is Rooney deems not good enough to | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
head a ball into the box but good enough to pick up one of the best | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
header from a throw in? That is where the first goal is from. So you | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
have to look at the manager and coaching staff also. Second goal? | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
Well, where do you start? It is good play from Iceland and we have to | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
give them credit. This ball travels 40, 50, 60 yards. We still have | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
enough time to shovel over. Look at the players. No pressure on the ball | :26:41. | :26:48. | |
and look at the three players. Where is Dier? The two centre halves, the | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
forwards in between the centre halves and defenders, no clue where | :26:53. | :26:58. | |
they are, no mocking whatsoever, no organisation, no leader pulling | :26:59. | :27:00. | |
everybody around and organising everybody. And when the ball comes | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
in, touch, touch, touch, touch, and the third is a shot. That from a | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
defender's point of view is embarrassing. From a goalkeeper's, | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
and Paris in also. Jo Hart said it, he should say that. -- embarrassing. | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
Defenders need to be doing a lot more. What was most alarming, zero | :27:22. | :27:28. | |
communication. As a centre-half, you have the stop that. You have to come | :27:29. | :27:35. | |
out of the back four and engage with the centre forward. The defending, | :27:36. | :27:39. | |
waiting for somebody else to step up. That is what we talked about | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
before, leadership. We were wanting somebody to lead that back four and | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
communicate, it did not happen today. Going the other way, England | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
hardly created anything. They created nothing in the second-half, | :27:52. | :27:55. | |
not one opportunity. We were hoping they would do but nothing. It was | :27:56. | :28:00. | |
the wide areas that were the most frustrating areas of the park. This | :28:01. | :28:04. | |
is good from Dele Alli and this has to come in now. This is what | :28:05. | :28:09. | |
strikers thrive on. Harry Kane has got a lot of stick at this | :28:10. | :28:12. | |
tournament, get it in the box and give them something to attack. But, | :28:13. | :28:17. | |
no. Back onto the left but, it is the best but of Sturridge so he will | :28:18. | :28:23. | |
do that. I have never seen Raheem Sterling put that in with his life | :28:24. | :28:27. | |
but anyway but that needs to happen. He does not even react because he | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
knows that is not coming in. We like to let the back four drop back into | :28:33. | :28:36. | |
comfortable areas of the park and not get that into the space and | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
eventually, he becomes predictable. Overloading the bodies and he has | :28:41. | :28:46. | |
nowhere to go. What you need... Is somebody telling him get the ball in | :28:47. | :28:52. | |
the box? If you were playing, you would be screaming, I have made a | :28:53. | :28:56. | |
run, it get it in. Get the ball in the box, what are you doing? How | :28:57. | :29:00. | |
many times have we seen in the Premier league it is not happening, | :29:01. | :29:05. | |
switchover. Go to the left is a left footer, Sterling, go to the right | :29:06. | :29:09. | |
and you might get in a ball. No thought to do that in the game. | :29:10. | :29:13. | |
Daniel Sturridge does not want to play on the right-hand side he is | :29:14. | :29:18. | |
not a right fielder, he is a striker. We are putting players in | :29:19. | :29:21. | |
the systems they do not play for their clubs. I have always said | :29:22. | :29:27. | |
football is a very hard game in your own position, let alone somebody | :29:28. | :29:31. | |
else's. And you have to pick players in form, we have made that mistake | :29:32. | :29:36. | |
over years. And I thought for this tournament, pick players in form, | :29:37. | :29:41. | |
not who think that they should eat and who have done a job a year ago, | :29:42. | :29:46. | |
two years ago, players actually in form. Not for the manager to be | :29:47. | :29:47. | |
loyal. How many wingers were on that plane? | :29:48. | :30:01. | |
It cannot be right you're playing the first game in the tournament, | :30:02. | :30:04. | |
then a second and then a third and on the fourth annual still | :30:05. | :30:06. | |
scrambling around, trying to find your best players and your best | :30:07. | :30:13. | |
system. That cannot be right. Wright, a bit of credit for Iceland. | :30:14. | :30:20. | |
Magnificent achievement. Tiny, tiny island, with 300,000 or so people. | :30:21. | :30:24. | |
An astonishing achievement and they had some good players. Every single | :30:25. | :30:30. | |
one of them were outstanding. They fought for their team. Sigurdsson | :30:31. | :30:34. | |
was absolutely outstanding for the 90 minutes. He got the goal, quicker | :30:35. | :30:40. | |
than anyone at both ends of the pitch. Another set piece causing a | :30:41. | :30:44. | |
problem. That is a centre-half, by the way. What about this tackle? | :30:45. | :30:49. | |
Vardy quick, timed to absolute perfection. He was a leader, he | :30:50. | :30:54. | |
dominated the game. He was exactly what England didn't have. I thought | :30:55. | :30:58. | |
it was the easiest game in the tournament. England never really | :30:59. | :31:05. | |
looked like scoring. Throwback football, the old Premier League | :31:06. | :31:10. | |
about ten years ago, two forward upfront, having absolutely zero | :31:11. | :31:13. | |
respect for England the way they approach this game. All the other | :31:14. | :31:17. | |
games we saw, the heat map was in their own box. Here, two strikers up | :31:18. | :31:23. | |
the pitch. Two players up front, and a rigid 4-4- two. People say you | :31:24. | :31:29. | |
can't play that formation any more, but these guys show you can. You | :31:30. | :31:33. | |
have guys willing to run and move and they have a game plan in place | :31:34. | :31:38. | |
that they all adhered to. And again, you come out, you play, we will get | :31:39. | :31:42. | |
the ball back off you. The way the manager spoke after the game in his | :31:43. | :31:46. | |
press Conference, as if to say, we knew we were going to get answers | :31:47. | :31:50. | |
and we would have time to beat this team and we were confident. And it | :31:51. | :31:53. | |
was proved. And they out for England. They did. If you put a team | :31:54. | :32:00. | |
together, to work together as a team rather than individuals, you can win | :32:01. | :32:03. | |
matches, and that is what they did. They outfought them, alt worked | :32:04. | :32:07. | |
them. They seemed to want it a lot more in these areas, even when | :32:08. | :32:12. | |
England were trying to probe. They were fully committed all the time, | :32:13. | :32:18. | |
working for each other. That is a striker, tracking back, brushing | :32:19. | :32:20. | |
Dele Alli off the ball like he wasn't even. They did this, that | :32:21. | :32:26. | |
constantly. Swamps the England players, giving them no time or | :32:27. | :32:30. | |
space. The amount of miles they put in. A special mention to Gylfi | :32:31. | :32:37. | |
Sigurdsson, was excellent today. We've had Russia, we didn't beat | :32:38. | :32:41. | |
them. We had Wales, we beat them in the last minute. We had Slovakia, we | :32:42. | :32:45. | |
didn't score against them and Iceland tonight to outfought and | :32:46. | :32:50. | |
outplayed us. I go back to my point earlier. I kept hearing people say, | :32:51. | :32:55. | |
we had possession, we just need to take our chances. Don't talk about | :32:56. | :32:58. | |
possession, it's all about putting the ball in the back of the net. The | :32:59. | :33:03. | |
players caved tonight, as had other is to say. Roy has gone, what is the | :33:04. | :33:09. | |
answer? Is there an obvious one? I don't know. We have gone for | :33:10. | :33:13. | |
ultimate experience, people with experience coming out of their ears. | :33:14. | :33:17. | |
We have gone for a foreign manager. I think we have to go for someone | :33:18. | :33:21. | |
young, dynamic, who understands the young players coming through. Gareth | :33:22. | :33:26. | |
Southgate is with the U21 's, he has dumped Italy well with them, he is | :33:27. | :33:32. | |
with the FA. He is the obvious choice, especially when you look | :33:33. | :33:35. | |
elsewhere in terms of English managers, unless they go for and | :33:36. | :33:39. | |
again. That didn't work either. That is the problem, we've just gone | :33:40. | :33:44. | |
through a time when managers have taken new posts. I want to see the | :33:45. | :33:53. | |
FA... You wanted to have the job before? Yes, I said that to them and | :33:54. | :33:59. | |
they said, no, it's a lack of experience. I said, you hire | :34:00. | :34:03. | |
experienced guys and pay them a bulging and I couldn't do worse. | :34:04. | :34:06. | |
Germany did it with Jurgen Klinsmann. Would you take it now, | :34:07. | :34:13. | |
still? Absolutely. I would offer my experience, even if Gareth Southgate | :34:14. | :34:17. | |
got it, for him to take players in with experience who have been there | :34:18. | :34:20. | |
and done it, that has to be of benefit or so. There is a person out | :34:21. | :34:24. | |
there that would say no. There's one here! LAUGHTER | :34:25. | :34:31. | |
There is not person who would they know, anyone worth their weight in | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
gold with a bit of confidence would love the challenge. You can't do any | :34:35. | :34:37. | |
worse than what people have previously done. Sounds like a | :34:38. | :34:42. | |
Shearer and Ferdinand double act. We will move onto the other match | :34:43. | :34:47. | |
played today, a repeat of the 2012 final between Spain and Italy. The | :34:48. | :34:52. | |
sixth meeting between the two side that the European Championships, | :34:53. | :34:55. | |
making it the most played fixture the tournament's history. | :34:56. | :35:01. | |
COMMENTATOR: It is being called a final played too soon. They met in | :35:02. | :35:09. | |
the final of the European Championship four years ago and will | :35:10. | :35:14. | |
meet in World Cup qualifying for 2018 in Russia. But today it is | :35:15. | :35:19. | |
Paris, the perfect venue for the big occasion. Italy go back to plan a. | :35:20. | :35:24. | |
Antonio Conte deciding to go with de Sciglio. Vicente del Bosque goes | :35:25. | :35:31. | |
with the tried and tested, the same 11 that started all three of their | :35:32. | :35:35. | |
group games. Danny, when the teams are looking at the pitch, conditions | :35:36. | :35:41. | |
have changed with this very heavy rain. Morata was getting bear hugs | :35:42. | :35:46. | |
from his Juventus team-mates from last season. I've always found it | :35:47. | :35:57. | |
fascinating. Free kick. Juanfran. I think he got the ball. Alessandro | :35:58. | :36:05. | |
Florenzi on this for Italy. Every white shirt is back. | :36:06. | :36:11. | |
Perrella, good saves by de Gea! Excellent stops. A super ball in | :36:12. | :36:22. | |
from Florenzi. Pelle, we have seen him do that so many times the | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
Southampton, strong in the air. What a great save from de Gea. Spain are | :36:27. | :36:33. | |
the great safe breakers. Italy a threat at the other end, as well. | :36:34. | :36:40. | |
The header wasn't bad. Eder. Florenzi. Four in a box for Italy. | :36:41. | :36:45. | |
Knocked dangerously to the back post. Giaccherini! De Gea again, | :36:46. | :36:51. | |
brilliant save again. What an effort that was, super save onto the post. | :36:52. | :36:55. | |
The Italian Stephanie in the ascendancy. Get some balls in the | :36:56. | :36:59. | |
box and let Pelle use his power. The sun is coming out now. Morata | :37:00. | :37:11. | |
with the flick. Nolito's touched a David Silva. Back to Nolito. Some | :37:12. | :37:16. | |
danger here for the real danger now. Fabregas. De Sciglio made the block. | :37:17. | :37:23. | |
The first bit of quality we have seen from the Spanish, but terrific | :37:24. | :37:25. | |
defending. David Silva. Morata. Iniesta. Sergio Ramos is appealing | :37:26. | :37:55. | |
Chiellini fouled him. The referee gestured to Sergio Ramos to get back | :37:56. | :37:59. | |
to his feet. He has got his shirt. Pelle, Giaccherini. Bonucci has | :38:00. | :38:06. | |
continued his run and joined Pelle and Eder. De Rossi. De Sciglio. | :38:07. | :38:16. | |
Arriving late and just unable to guide it. A lovely late run into the | :38:17. | :38:22. | |
box by Parolo. Good quality ball into the box and Parolo just | :38:23. | :38:23. | |
couldn't get any time. De Rossi, knocked off by Pelle to | :38:24. | :38:35. | |
Eder. Brings de Sciglio into play. Ramos! How lucky was he? He is a | :38:36. | :38:44. | |
lucky boy, Ramos. A good ball across from de Sciglio. Italy have been the | :38:45. | :38:52. | |
better side. Very, very watchable half an hour. Italy have had the | :38:53. | :38:53. | |
better of it. Sergio Ramos on Pelle, free kick. | :38:54. | :39:03. | |
Silly foul from Ramos. Didn't need to dive in. Doesn't need to, just | :39:04. | :39:06. | |
keep goal side. Giaccherini has left it. Eder or | :39:07. | :39:22. | |
Baluchi. Eder. De Gea again, and again, not the third time. Italy are | :39:23. | :39:27. | |
in front! Chiellini scores. Deserved lead. Giorgio Chiellini with the | :39:28. | :39:35. | |
goal. Richly deserved indeed. Silly foul from Ramos. Free kick on the | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
edge of the box, always going to be a problem. Decent stop from de Gea, | :39:41. | :39:44. | |
you could argue he could have got it away from goal. But how hungry and | :39:45. | :39:50. | |
quick they are on the rebound. If it hadn't ended up in the back of the | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
net, that was arguably a penalty. Yes. And if it had been given as | :39:55. | :40:01. | |
such, de Gea probably would have got a red card. Chiellini with the goal, | :40:02. | :40:04. | |
1-0 to Italy. Poor touch from Nolito. De Rossi. | :40:05. | :40:24. | |
Nice little nutmeg. Eder, Pelle. Pelle Carizza, looks to his right | :40:25. | :40:28. | |
that there is to be there. Eder is on the floor. Giaccherini now. | :40:29. | :40:34. | |
Giaccherini, good try! This game could be out of sight, couldn't it? | :40:35. | :40:40. | |
Giaccherini, what a shot that is, flying into the top corner. | :40:41. | :40:43. | |
Unbelievable stop again from that man, de Gea. It is very unlikely | :40:44. | :40:49. | |
that Spain will be dominated for 90 minutes in this game. Juanfran | :40:50. | :40:57. | |
getting forward, blocked by Bonucci. Handball, free kick to Spain in a | :40:58. | :41:04. | |
decent position. David Silva's ball in. Off the head of the Rossi for a | :41:05. | :41:11. | |
corner. Yes, a good ball in. Done well in that near post position, De | :41:12. | :41:12. | |
Rossi. Delivered to Maratha! -- Morata. It | :41:13. | :41:26. | |
would have counted. Italians claiming a push on de Sciglio in the | :41:27. | :41:32. | |
penalty area, but nothing given. It came off his shoulder. Fabregas for | :41:33. | :41:34. | |
Spain. I tell you what, there was a little | :41:35. | :41:41. | |
kick out, wasn't there? Yeah. A lovely flick. Eder, the pace to | :41:42. | :42:02. | |
get away from Pique. He does. De Gea, once more! Having an | :42:03. | :42:12. | |
unbelievable game, David de Gea. Without their goalkeeper, they would | :42:13. | :42:16. | |
already be out of this game. I don't think I've ever seen a keeper better | :42:17. | :42:22. | |
at one on ones than David de Gea. He stays so big for so long. Great | :42:23. | :42:28. | |
touch. Brilliant touch. Pelle nicely done. Pique. The referee said play | :42:29. | :42:36. | |
on. The Italians are absolutely incensed. Safe to say that is | :42:37. | :42:43. | |
probably one of the poorest decisions I have seen. Pique has got | :42:44. | :42:50. | |
away with one for. The referee hasn't seen it, by the way... Come | :42:51. | :42:52. | |
on! That is a good ball. Eder. | :42:53. | :43:04. | |
Giaccherini ahead of him. De Sciglio. Through de Gea, but not | :43:05. | :43:08. | |
into his net. It could have been. Not much he hasn't seen and done, | :43:09. | :43:20. | |
Vicente del Bosque. Maybe his last hurrah. Won back by David Silva. | :43:21. | :43:29. | |
They are not done yet, Spain. Iniesta, great hit. | :43:30. | :43:37. | |
Lovely smile from Buffon. Two wise old heads. | :43:38. | :43:43. | |
Iniesta. Good save. Pique struck it through | :43:44. | :43:58. | |
and struck it farm. Buffon again. Every sinew of this Italian defence | :43:59. | :44:03. | |
is going to be tested now. The first time we have seen del Bosque out in | :44:04. | :44:07. | |
his technical area, getting worried as the game draws on. | :44:08. | :44:13. | |
Fabregas. That was a foul and the yellow card for Thiago Motta. | :44:14. | :44:25. | |
Oh, yes. You can see why they are suggesting it could have been more | :44:26. | :44:30. | |
than a yellow card. Pique! Buffon. Gianluigi Buffon, one | :44:31. | :44:46. | |
of the greats, in a game saving stop. What a save. | :44:47. | :45:00. | |
Brexit. That is a wonderful ball. Pelle in the middle. Pelle! Done and | :45:01. | :45:17. | |
dusted! Italian revenge is sweet! Thrashed in Kiev in the final of | :45:18. | :45:23. | |
Euro 2012. Italy have not sprayed out of Euro 2016. If there is one | :45:24. | :45:28. | |
player who deserves a goal tonight, it is that man, Pelle, he has been | :45:29. | :45:35. | |
absolutely sensational. He has worked tirelessly, held the ball up | :45:36. | :45:39. | |
and made good runs, what a great finish. Thoroughly deserved. Good | :45:40. | :45:48. | |
pick out from Darmian, a bit of good luck with the deflection. Smashes | :45:49. | :45:49. | |
it, no chance for de Gea. Game over. After eight years, the champions of | :45:50. | :46:18. | |
Europe have been dethroned. Italy march into the last eight of Euro | :46:19. | :46:27. | |
2016 and deservedly so. It has finished in the Stade de France | :46:28. | :46:30. | |
Italy two, Spain zero. Let's confirm the quarterfinal | :46:31. | :46:41. | |
draw... Wales, the only home nation left in the competition, they play | :46:42. | :46:45. | |
Belgium for a place in the semifinals in Lille on Friday night. | :46:46. | :46:50. | |
We will also bring live coverage of the heavyweight clash between | :46:51. | :46:53. | |
Germany and Italy on Saturday evening. Tonight's Iceland heroes | :46:54. | :47:04. | |
take on France. Not many great players in their side, but | :47:05. | :47:07. | |
beautifully organised and tactically perfect. | :47:08. | :47:11. | |
Spot on for the majority of that game, every single player knew their | :47:12. | :47:17. | |
job. We will have a bit of fun this time. He is a character! What a | :47:18. | :47:24. | |
strike that was! That is the second goal of the year. That passion | :47:25. | :47:32. | |
transfers to the team. He is on the sideline kicking every ball and the | :47:33. | :47:35. | |
players know if you do not produce, he will be down your throat at | :47:36. | :47:40. | |
half-time. Interesting to see if he goes for three at the back at | :47:41. | :47:43. | |
Chelsea. He made a good Spain side looked very ordinary today, they | :47:44. | :47:49. | |
were fantastic. Overall, very impressive and nobody fancied them | :47:50. | :47:52. | |
at the beginning but they do now. That is it, England have been beaten | :47:53. | :47:56. | |
by Iceland, a country with more volcanoes than professional football | :47:57. | :48:03. | |
players. Sweet dreams! Only one space left in the | :48:04. | :48:08. | |
quarterfinals of Euro 2016. Will it be England or Iceland to try to take | :48:09. | :48:14. | |
down the hosts in their own capital City? Sterling, is he brought down? | :48:15. | :48:27. | |
The referee says, he is. And it is the perfect start. Help the cross, | :48:28. | :48:33. | |
goal, Iceland is level! Flicked off, goal. Sigthorsson. Iceland have | :48:34. | :48:41. | |
turned it round! England at the moment looked like a mess. Harry | :48:42. | :48:47. | |
Kane, saved. It hits Hart. | :48:48. | :48:54. | |
Another massive let off. Never thought it would come to this for | :48:55. | :48:58. | |
England. The Iceland fans have started the celebrations. It has | :48:59. | :49:02. | |
missed. England out of the European Now some of Shirley's | :49:03. | :49:04. | |
trademark clear direction. Which way, which way? | :49:05. | :49:06. | |
Oh, left. | :49:07. | :49:09. |
