headscratching and weak. what a bunch of pussies

Penalties are part of the game. The call on Harry was questionable. But, it didn’t ruin the match.

England’s tenacity in denying an equalizer was impressive.

Thierry & Zlatan collectively have the personality of a door stop.

They seem to know the game (obviously), but Rebecca Lowe is really held back in the studio being saddled with them. Granted, English is their second language.

Lowe began the post game coverage with "Absolute torture!" trying to build some excitement. Then she has to basically cross-examine Thierry & Zlatan as if they were testifying in a courtroom and their lawyer told them to stick to known facts and say nothing more. They suck the excitement right out of the coverage. She has to prompt them when to speak.
- Thierry: "It's a 90 minute game...11 on 11...they must play."
- Lowe: "Zlatan, would you like to say something?"
- Zlatan: "England will advance to play...who are they playing?"
- Lowe: "Norway."
- Zlatan: "Oh, you know the bracket! Good!"

I don't know how she stays sane.

I've noticed this in other games as well. Fox Sports should make a change now, but they are probably committed.
