    Playing the worst team to get past the group stages (just).

    We previously beat Germany and Ukraine made it past the previous round fair and square.

    Switzerland beat France. Czech beat Holland. "You can only beat what's infront of you" as the saying goes.. Croatia, Czech, Germany and the emphatic victory over Ukraine all look impressive.

    The same team that Sweden couldn't find a way of beating and that ran The Netherlands extremely close. It was a kind draw but beating anyone that comprehensively at this stage of the Euros is an incredible achievement, especially bearing in mind how hot it was in Rome yesterday.

    Ukraine are the worst team we’ve played in the tournament & it’s only a string of good luck that’s got them this far -

    1 - been drawn in the worst group

    2 - only picking up 1 win against Macedonia the worst team in the tournament

    3 - scraping through by been the worst best 3rd place finisher

    4 - one of the Swede’s getting sent off in a game they were clearly the best team in

    Still, we showed no complacency & thoroughly dominated them. We’ve all seen England come up against sides like that previously & labour to victories or even come unstuck. You’ve only to look at France after going 3-1 up against Switzerland to see what happens when you’re complacent

    Just one last thing If England beat Portugal in 2016 would you have said the same thing? They won the entire thing after getting 3 draws in the group lol.

    Portugal had the best player in the tournament, possibly the world, and were well up the FIFA rankings.

    And we blew them away, I don't understand your point. You can only beat what's in front of you.

    Early goal means they had to push out . Sancho and Rice unlucky not to score before we got the 2nd..after that some Ukraine heads went down...well done England
