Well, for me, yesterdays game provided the most moving moment of the entire tournament when Bakary Sako not only scored a great goal to keep us in it but also stepped up to confront his demons when he scored the penalty. After the vile rascist, threatening and personal abuse he suffered online from the increasingly virulent and dreadful army of keyboard warriors after his miss against Italy in the final here was his redemption. I take my hat off to him.
Also there was none of this awful crotch grabbing celebrations nonsense, just arms outstretched and a million dollar smile that seemed to light up the stadium!
Well done young man, you are a credit to yourself, your family and your country! ??????.

Well said Stokey, agree 100% with that.

Got to admit I was calling for Saka to be subbed second half, I thought the Swiss had nolified him. But what do I know, great goal, and utter relief in his penalty ??.

He was the only one attacking them and when he stepped forward to take his penalty, I thought oops should this be happening, but how wrong I was not quite Psycho but well done.

Great post Stokey ???.

I second that!

Yet another bang-on post from you Stokey. I was thinking exactly the same thing.

It's the smile afterwards that really makes it. And he looks about 12. Well done young man.

In a nutshell gazzi and those that say they don't care because of their wealth no nothing about the dedication it takes to make it to that level
I read on here about no passion, no morals, no loyalty.
It's work at the end of the day, but nice work if you're good enough.
