England has played all their games at home, at Wembley stadium in London.

13 june England - Croatia - Wembley, London
18 june England - Skottland - Wembley, London
22 june Czech Republic - England - Wembley, London

…and today, England will play semi-finals against Denmark at… guess where? Yes, on Wembley in London.

Wtf is up with that? That’s not fair. Other countries has not had the luxury of playing their games at their own home stadium.

The game has been rigged to England’s favor. How much has England paid UEFA?

You mean like every other Euro in the past? Except less so, because they have not played all of their games at home?

I have no idea if every other Euro in the past has been rigged.

But is it not unfair that England plays in London all the time, when for an example Sweden did not get to play in Stockholm a single time during the group stages or in the eight final.

Because Sweden did not offer a venue.

Last Euro France got to play 100% of their games at home! *gasp*

”Because Sweden did not offer a venue”

Okay, I can see why. Because of the pandemic? In that case I can see why certain countries can get to play most/all their games at their home stadium.

But during the last Euro there was no pandemic. If France played all their games at home them, then it was unfair to other countries if they did not get the same benefit of playing at home.

Just let the fuckin England win something already. Every star is aligned now, good teams are out, every game is him gam, this is a good English side. Knowing history, I expect England to lose to Danes today, but if they don’t, I will cheer for them

Anyhow, the best team is already out so I don’t care anymore. Maybe I care about Denmark a little bit. But not too much. Just a little bit.

I’m looking at the game now and Wembley looks packed!! And I don’t see anyone with a mask on when the cameras was panning the audience. The Delta-variant is hitting England hard right now. What are they thinking? I think it is very irresponsible. Even if they are outside, the crowds looks like packed herring, and the englishmen are singing and shouting. There will be a lot of salivas flying around among the crowd at Wembley tonight.

Noone cares about soccer, not even the fans who use it mainly as an excuse to get drunk.

"looks like packed herring"

The anglophone idiom is "packed like sardines".
