All I know is the fact England not scoring here while giving up this match-winner is just final proof it's never coming home. Can we really be surprised? They caught too many breaks this tournament. Part of it is just how tournaments are but when you barely sneak by Slovakia, Switzerland and the Netherlands all in knockout stage you're going to lose at some point.
