Over a half hour of boring

Think England just played their second to last game of EURO 2012 I'm afraid.... They will be lucky to get through next game  

Steeeeeeeeeveen geeerrrrarrrd! Supporting England all the way from the land of Oz. As well as Ukraine played, they're two best chances were actually offside and England could've easily had a penalty for that shirt pull on Rooney, absolute foul (you can see in the replay the Ukranian player was completely beat without it, momentum was carrying him foward). Plus Cole and Rooney had really good chances which probaly should've been goals. So maybe England were'nt as lucky as people think but they definately have room to improve. At the end of the day though this is Tournament Football and only the result matters really and Enlgand march on!
Here's hoping they send the Italians running back to their Mama's, I just wish that diving con artist Fabio Grosso was still around to be a part of it!

Well England definitely got their luck back from that time the ball went over the line against Germany in the 2010 World Cup plus more. Ukraine were the much better team. I don't think England deserved to go through

Hehe ukraine still complaining that ball crossed the line when john terry cleared it off the line maan it was close shave afterall

Did gerrard just do a step over?

He's been brilliant in this tournoment

Lucky England but who cares.... England are going into the quarter finals even if they got a draw.... -_-

Blame it on the england's coach, I still can't comprehend many of his weird and ridiculous decisions.... Even if england win the cup, I will still want him to resign from coaching england to show some respect to football

That almost goal being offside doesn't make the poor decision by the line-ref any less ridiculous. :/ For what else are they gettig paid for then? Still nice to see England advance, hoping for a fabulous semi against Germany.

The ball crossed the line which makes you wonder why the ref is even employed behind the goal when its his only job to determine something like that
Then you realize the player was offside in the first place and you wonder how the linesman didn't see that. I am in favour of giving refs the benefit of the doubt on close calls as they are humans, see it from different angles on the pitch and don't get to see replays. But sometimes I honestly wonder if refs are getting worse or just need glasses

Say what you want about England, bring all the hate in the world. The same hate was not given to Germany when England should of had a goal. The difference here however is that the Ukrainian 'goal' was offside - whether the ball crossed the line or not is irrelevant, but for the record, it did. Insult how England play all you want, but they went against a team with everything to play for, hosting Europe's biggest sporting event and a massive home crowd, and beat them - FAIR AND square. There is a passion about England which you don't get from other teams.... You see Parker taking knees to the head, footballs to the face.... Trying to tackle with his head.... He doesn't bitch and whine and roll around like the Ukrainian players did. Are a slight tap, that's something I will always be proud of in England, our players are tough and don't act like pansies. Say what you will about John Terry, he plays football with broken bones and sings the national anthem with all his lungs. That's international football and passion, not Ronaldo scoring the odd wonder goal and crying like a bitch when he gets tapped or poked

I'm a little confused as to why everyone is saying england were lucky the 'Goal that should have been a goal but was offside' was ruled out. We still would have finished top of the group with that result, we beat sweden with three solid goals (theirs were sloppy and set pieces) and France got their ass beat by the Swedes. Russia just slaughtered italy not too long ago, England go in as favourites in my opinion for the quarter final

Italy will beat England, Italy all the way!
