"Jekyll and Hyde, goodness and horror. England's long-standing condition, the white and the black darkness. An exaggerated, mind-blowing, grotesque drama unfolded at Wembley, 90 minutes of two faces which first humiliated, then deceived, then damned the heirs to the inventors of football" - La Gazzetta dello Sport, Italy.
"Just about the limit: England is out! Oh no, England! How 'stupid' the Tommys could be. The Motherland of football again writes a tragic capture of football history" - Koelner Express, Germany.

To me, the most fascinating part about what happened to England is that the one position they pride themselves on so much, their goalkeepers, is the one position that has consistently failed them as of late.
Good point. Their lack of stability at the back seems to flow up through the entire side.
