I must admit I thought England had a great chance to progress and they nearly did - the usual penalty miss did for them. I didn't see England dominating the second half that some did - shaded it maybe, but no more.

The best laugh of the night was the ITV studio pundits who thought that England wasted the chance, because it was going to be Morocco in the semi-final. They didn't use the word "only" but it was hanging in the air.

Any undue pressure doesn't come from the staff and fans, it comes from the media. For over a week we've heard that if England won against Senegal, then they'd have the chance to beat France and then maybe Portugal for an England v Argentina or Brazil Final. Thinking too far ahead lads. It was the kiss of death once again.

Never mind, it'll give England the chance to win on the 60th Anniversary.
