.. and if both teams have scored 10?

11 - 11 and counting

What I'm saying is that the keeper has to step up at some point. (which he did at the end to keep us in it for an extra round, but it wasnt enough)
I said during the World cup David James should have been trained up on penalties and put in if we got to a shootout, and something similar should have been done here with a larger keeper. It is all about the size of the goalkeeper in a shootout.

At least it's taking us far longer to lose shootouts.

We're getting better.

The England lads did brilliant.  Played virtually the whole of extra time with 10 men, or more accurately, 9 and a half.  Defended solidly, and then took some great penalties.  Great to watch, and a shame it didn't go their way.

If we had got to the final I don't think we could have won anyway.  Several players suspended and several others injured. 

13-12 on penalties.  Wow.

Sickener!

Yes it maybe due to how big the keeper is but being close to the sodding ball helps, what a ref!

Dudek's not the tallest.  Running off the line to stop Pirlo's shot didn't do Liverpool any harm in Istanbul....

Referee's assistant stood on the goal line watching the keepers for every penalty.
Now, either he is extremely short-sighted or he was asleep.

Can't fault the England team for effort.
Give the job to Pearce - the players respect him.

Bit harsh. I thought Taylor was the best England player during extra time. They were out on their feet and put up a great effort. Good to see some pride in the shirt for a change.

Well, with Taylor's injury, Milner's cramp, and the others showing that they were all knackered I think 9.5 was fairly generous.  Tremendous effort from them all, really wanted them to win at the end.

What a game. The lads were more than good enough to go all the way outplaying a very good dutch side.

If only the first team had that commitment...
