In missing goal-scoring within 6 six steps behind the goal post
is not a crime but misfortune accepted in games, hauling abuse is dirt mind

This reporter is right: "Some". It's sad seeing the comments of people online from other countries thinking we are ALL like this

[apotebill]

This is the coach’s fall. Saka is too young to carry that responsibility. Marcus and Sancho did not really play that much prior to the penalty kicks. That’s my take on it.

[equalrightandjusticeforall]

I don't blame the players but I blame English coach ..why he keeped Gary kean when he was playing bad ?

[hourbee]

But the kneeling was supposed to make things better.

[androsc]

The success of the English League is to be blamed. Why would fans be so affected by the loss of a foreign country ?

[kyeboahboafo]

This whole thing sort of vindicates Meghan and Harry doesn't it. The whole world now sees it pretty clearly

[gabrielebianchi]

LMAO They aren't even English what a disgrace!!!

[simonm]

I thought USA was racist country but then came England showed up

[muhammadabdulmateen]

This shows if the blacks offer something to the people thn they regard them as one of thier own. If nt they disregard them.

[lindasapiecha]

Im English so are they Im proud of them representing our Country 👍

[juzores]

Why i dont see the same reaction when these insults directed toward muslims .

[DanielEduardoVictoriaValencia]

White Yellow Black Brown, the attack is not for lost penalty is for poor attitude. The game is about the proud England, is not a game just for funny. This time Black players are in the public eye.

[DORAEMON-bwjk]

At least it is not as bad as what Asians are facing in the US.
