    England Are About To Be The Biggest Embarassment in International Football

    Forever will be remembered as the biggest upset

    Population of 330,000 beating England


    England should quit soccer and all their players should hang up their cleats

    England will only be known for drunken stupidity

    iceland was an 8-1 underdog to win in 90 min +

    but only +430 to advance

    hardly an epic huge all time upset.

    and still some game left here....

    Nope. This is touted as a big upset, mainly b/c ESPN soccer broadcasting is full of English wankers. Anybody who follows soccer knows what to expect from England, in other words nothing. A complete idiot of a coach coupled with a roster of overrated wankers rarely produces good results.

    The advance lines are always low cause of chance of rearguard action. How many +850 ml cash in elimination matches in these types of tourneys?

    I was actually more surprised not to see a third from Iceland.

    It's a big upset at this stage. I can't remember a time when a -225 fav lost in knock out round outright.

    interesting. then those are extremely weak lines for decades, how does anyone lose a bet on a favorite knowing that (other than today)

    Bale carrying Wales. Griezmann carrying France. British Airways carrying England.

    Draws happen. Regulation time is 3 way betting.

    They say because of all the the foreign players in EPL youth development is affected and the heavy season with it's many matches affects national team's fitness level ahead of big tournaments.

    Well you dip chit, who are you to speak down on anyone??? My hat tips to a nation that "everone" has already chalked up as the loser and COMES through. Upsets happen...... England still has its chance to shine with their latest issues at hand.

    I totally agree. You know if I were an English soccer player I wouldn't show my face in public. I'd always wear something over my face to hide my appearance. I'd wear....... oh gosh, what are those masks called that you wear when out in the cold, perhaps while skiing???? I'm drawing a blank; it'll come to me later.

    Maybe they were right about needing the Brexit to improve the national team.
