Apparently, MLS revived the practice for the first few seasons in the late '90s? And, yes, fouls by the keeper in the box = regular penalty. I don't know what happened with fouls outside the box, or if the keeper ran the risk of being sent off for repeated offences.

time to unleash the jedermann sein eigner fußball protocol, two goals, 22 players, 22 balls, at least 22 officials, let the mayhem begin

i admire your constraint at sticking with only 2 goals.

England would still only score once

my favourite goal was locatelli's volleyed pass wide right, sprint into the box and slotted finish from cut back. also schick and insigne's vs belgium. oh and pogba.

pogba’s passing was god-tier

Locatelli and Insigne's goals, even though they unfolded in each about 5-10 seconds, both possessed a building sense of tension that a wonderful goal was going to be scored, and the satisfaction felt when the ball hit the net is amplified when that sensation bears fruit.

With Insigne's goal, I literally shouted every manoeuvre he did just before he did it. And who doesn't love a lung-busting run from deep to collect a pass into the box? I think that if Spinazzola had scored in that early second half blitz against Belgium it may have topped them all.

Other than the most "holy shit!" goal moments had to be Schick against Scotland and the Gavranović equaliser against France.

"The so-called ‘msm’ reported earlier today that..."

opening sentence vmic! I was thinking yesterday that perhaps Boris might have cancelled it before they got a chance to snub him.

which players are the shy Tory voters that nodded along with this for the sake of group unity? Maguire looks like a dodgy fucker!

Idk where to put this but Jorginho had a pretty hilarious PK miss for Italy moments ago.

That's one of the worst penalties I've ever seen a pro footballer take.

the English language broadcaster (not on this feed) was incredulous. then one of his teammates scored on a daisycutter minutes later so nobody cared but lord I don't think he'll ever be given a PK again after his history with them
