England lost to Russia yesterday and the chance of them being in Euro 2008 is not looking unlikely. However its not all over. England played OK with good performances from some players like Campbell and Barry. Gerrard continued his poor form and should have scored. If he did England properly would have gone on to win.
Rooney scored a great goal but then conceded a penalty. However it was NOT a penalty as it was outside the box and I dont think it was even a foul. Their second goal came when Robinson saved but did not catch ball and a Russia player had an easy tap in.
We now need to beat Croatia and hope that either Israel or Andorra draw or beat Russia. Like I said its not all over – it wont be easy versus Israel – although they wont have anything to play for.
Fingers crossed!!! It will be RUBBISH if England are not in Euro 2008.
(Another reason I hope England get to Euro 2008 is so Beckham gets to 100 caps for England – so far he has 97 caps. If we dont get to Euro 2008 there will be a lack of matches remaining before its too late. He has just come back from injury so not match fit so properly wont be playing in the friendly v Austria and qualifier v Croatia in November).
