R16 - Beat Germany 2-0, Good result to be fair, but it was a very poor Germany side in the middle of a rebuild.
Quarters: England 4-0 Ukraine, Playing Ukraine... Not a tough match
Semi : england 2-1 Denmark AET - beating Denmark after extra time, its not a top side again...
Final: Lose to Italy the first actual good side we met.
We had probably the luckiest route to a final we'd ever of asked for, a final which was at home, at wembley infront of a massive partisan crowd, yet we lost. For me this was a failure.
