England on Channel 4??

I literally nodded off after twenty minutes, woke twenty minutes later and watched the last five minutes of the first half. What a load of crap this is. The talking point at half time was the fans booing at England taking the knee before kick off. Apparently this game should have taken place behind closed doors but the F.A. agreed to a crowd of 40,000 children being allowed in. So it was the kids who were booing then?

Yes

But why have we got some sort of divine right to insist that other countries follow the meaningless gestures we seem to love?

We haven't, and for what it's worth I agree with the Hungarian team not kneeling down, I know that I wouldn't do it. It's gone on too long now, we all know what it's all about by now. And Hungary have been given a "soft" penalty, ha-ha. And they score. Joke.

England have gone 22 games (excluding shoot-outs) without getting beat. Twenty minutes to save that record and they don't look like they can.
