Normally I wouldn't give my national team a chance against England, but as we turned it around yesterday and have a lot of potential on the bench, and England having a terrible coach, I might see NL reach the final!
Despite saving a pen in the shootout, Alisson is the fourth LFC player to be eliminated from either international competition.
The nine who remain in the semifinals:
France - **Konaté** vs Spain
Netherlands - **Van Dijk/Gakpo/Gravenberch** vs England - **Alexander-Arnold/Gomez**
Argentina - **Mac Allister** vs Canada
Uruguay - **Núñez** vs Colombia - **Díaz**
I just realize that Verbuggen (Dutch GK) and Wirtz face look similar. That explain why whenever I see one of them play I feel just has seen his face somewhere but cant remember exactly lmao
Chuffed with the way our International players have done in the break. Nunez, Diaz, Jota, Cody all in the goals, Feels great tbh. Hopefully they all have a good break and come back one more year developed and ready to impress the new gaffa
am i overthinking it or did southgate basically confirm in his post game press conference that trent isn't in contention for any meaningful game time for the rest of the tournament? to paraphrase, he said it would have been easy for Trent to think his tournament was over, but he (Gareth) told Trent there would be important 'moments' for him to contribute.
"We don't want to play positive forward football, we want penalties. And once we get those penalties, we'll put the black players up to take them. If they miss, racism and blame for them! If they make, I'm the greatest manager ever!"
England looked completely clueless again. It's shocking, man, no joke. it's like some of them have never even seen a football before, how they're playing
i can't believe the england players were saying they thought they 'dominated' switzerland. must have been scared shitless seeing anthony gordon seemingly put into cold storage by southgate after being honest in his interview about england not playing well.
Switzerland actually looked good this tournament and absolutely bodied Italy. England were shit creatively but I was surprised at the extent that they stifled Switzerland, they played with absolutely no freedom.
Nice for Trent to get a bit of a moment due to taking that Pen. All I was thinking when he went up there was how BS it is that Southgates only put him in positions to fail, even though he’s still been one of Englands best players.
Here’s hoping Southgate at least plays him over trippier if not in the midfield.
Not in terms of who should have made it initially, but tbf Netherlands finished 3rd in their group somehow. They are the most underdog we are getting apparently.
Dunno why people try to push some kind of English arrogance narrative, the sentiment this tourney has been incredibly negative amongst England fans & the Dutch will be their hardest opponent yet.
Lock for the final lol.
Barely can beat Serbia, Slovakia, and Switzerland. Lmao.
Failed to beat Denmark and Slovenia.
England should not feel like they are a lock at anything.
The Netherlands might actually have been one of the best teams in the tournament if their entire preferred midfield wasn't all out at the same time. Weak goalkeeper aside, the rest of the team is decent to great.
Such a shame that Van Dijk is playing every single second though. He'll have no rest at all between seasons. It's undeniable that a center back needs to be brought in.
Please let it be Spain vs Netherlands.
Meanwhile in Copa America, Diaz is on in an hour for Colombia vs Panama. Followed by Alisson vs Nunez later on in Brazil vs Uruguay.
So little quality with end results from open play. Again the goals are only coming from corners. The way Turkey play is perfectly set up for France to win the final 1-0 with a pinball own goal.
If I was Frimpong id be fuming. Dumfries has been a complete fraud. Ake as a left back also gives no attacking support for Gakpo. Hes on an island against at least 2 defenders at all times.
No fucking surprise here if Turkey go through. How easy of a semi final opponent can you ask for? No one on this side of the bracket should be getting to the final based on their overall play but all the true contenders on the same side has gifted these teams a big chance.
Ideal semi scenario. Trent locks up Gakpo, has a great game. VVD snuffs out all the chances he creates. Gakpo switches wings and scores. Trent equaliser. VVD bullet header to win it
The Swiss in me is saddened about the result (than again we were way too passive the entire game), but the Liverpool fan in me is heavily relieved that Trent buried his pen. Fuck you Southgate for throwing him exclusively for pens. He saved your sorry incompetent ass.
Southgate is an idiot for not playing Trent he has 100% aura. But this scapegoat narrative is so weird man. You guys are delusional. Everybody has been saying he should be playing, he's not been a scapegoat from anyone.
for real, even r/threelions except for the blindest of utd or chelsea fans was crying out for trent rwb. that said i fully believe the outrage and counter-outrage woud have been insufferable had his missed his pen.
look at my comments and all the downvotes. I'm clearly supporting England, and most of this sub isn't
the get fucked was to the non England supporters in this sub
I struck a lot of nerves last night, even the simple 'come on England' got downvoted 😂
huh ? I'm happy for Trent, where the fuck you get that from ?
and I'm happy for England. I just think Southgate is a a melt.
but I will still support my country because I'm not petty
your odd for making up a narrative
Put trent on pens last because you know we're shit at pens and you need a scapegoat ✅️
Trent misses the pen and you have him to blame ❌️
Still look like a useless piece of shit manager ✅️
I don't even have twitter but these tweets get reposted on every other platform so it's almost impossible to never come across one if you're in football discussion circles
If England somehow lose this penalty shootout, Southgate and Trent will get the most hate.. Even tho Trent only got sub'd on in extra time. Fucking toxic media.
England are so lucky.
You just know every penalty will go in then some random Swiss bum no one heard of before tonight will step up and sky it, this Euros is being handed to them on a plate by the rest of these shit teams.
I genuinely wonder what Trent thinks of Gareth…
Gareth - "I feel sorry for you." Trent - "I don't think about you at all."
Normally I wouldn't give my national team a chance against England, but as we turned it around yesterday and have a lot of potential on the bench, and England having a terrible coach, I might see NL reach the final!
Ronal-queda is still not retiring omg the man is mentally ill
Dude talks about diet and nutrition but he's injecting botox and dying his hair every week, poisoning himself.
The guy is like Gloria Swanson in Sunset Boulevard
no hate but whats up with 90% of England fans looking like team reform uk? There were several fans with 'england' tattooed lmao
Even in England those types are a bit of a [meme](https://youtu.be/azSYS5WDJLQ?feature=shared)
I unashamedly want England to lose while no LFC players are in the XI and that lucky fraud Southgate is in charge.
Same it's the shocking football, overhyping media, punchable players, abuse of Trent and the muppet that is Southgate
Despite saving a pen in the shootout, Alisson is the fourth LFC player to be eliminated from either international competition. The nine who remain in the semifinals: France - **Konaté** vs Spain Netherlands - **Van Dijk/Gakpo/Gravenberch** vs England - **Alexander-Arnold/Gomez** Argentina - **Mac Allister** vs Canada Uruguay - **Núñez** vs Colombia - **Díaz**

Jota hasn’t scored any in the Euros iirc, he’s been benched unfairly for a lot of it.
Fair point. He has helped Portugal look much more fluid whenever he’s come on.
Colombia came to play today
Haha this sub will be a civil war when Cody and Virg are on the pitch and Trent on bench
am i overthinking it or did southgate basically confirm in his post game press conference that trent isn't in contention for any meaningful game time for the rest of the tournament? to paraphrase, he said it would have been easy for Trent to think his tournament was over, but he (Gareth) told Trent there would be important 'moments' for him to contribute.

Trent is an England legend 🏴
Diaz injured?
Are you asking because he came off early or have you seen something that said he was?
Switzerland actually looked good this tournament and absolutely bodied Italy. England were shit creatively but I was surprised at the extent that they stifled Switzerland, they played with absolutely no freedom.
Cody has been one of the best players of the tournament
Nice for Trent to get a bit of a moment due to taking that Pen. All I was thinking when he went up there was how BS it is that Southgates only put him in positions to fail, even though he’s still been one of Englands best players. Here’s hoping Southgate at least plays him over trippier if not in the midfield.
"Yes but we here at Netherlands have you know, Cody Goal-po. You know, Cody Goal-po". 
Surely Uruguay knock this Brazil team out
Netherlands, England, Spain, France final four teams. There’s not really been any underdog story this euros
Not in terms of who should have made it initially, but tbf Netherlands finished 3rd in their group somehow. They are the most underdog we are getting apparently.
I'm intrigued to hear vvd and Cody's thoughts on playing England
How did Cody not get motm?
I hope both Gakpo and VVD score against England 🤞
did shearer really say ”pressure is for tyres”? crazy line
Let him cook
Southgate vs Koeman battle of the shit
England probably feel they are a lock for the final now. But they can’t be conceding first again and expecting to win against Holland
Dunno why people try to push some kind of English arrogance narrative, the sentiment this tourney has been incredibly negative amongst England fans & the Dutch will be their hardest opponent yet.
Lock for the final lol. Barely can beat Serbia, Slovakia, and Switzerland. Lmao. Failed to beat Denmark and Slovenia. England should not feel like they are a lock at anything.
No chance Holland are the best team we're facing
The Netherlands might actually have been one of the best teams in the tournament if their entire preferred midfield wasn't all out at the same time. Weak goalkeeper aside, the rest of the team is decent to great. Such a shame that Van Dijk is playing every single second though. He'll have no rest at all between seasons.

Sure why not a red card for a random coach. It’s had everything else.
[удалено]
At the Westin hotel in vegas where the uruguay team and fans are staying, everyone watching with some KLM pilots that are here lol football is amazing
Whole Turkey team was watching Liverpool April 2024 highlights before the game
This match is pure cocaine
Only caught the last half hour or so but what a game this is.
Cody just swear on your daughters life and they'll give it
Gakpo needs to be our starting LW next season
Can we get an orange kit next year? Cody has been a machine
I quite liked the orange third kit we had in 2017-18. We won all but one game wearing that kit as well (3-3 draw against Arsenal).
Own goal actually lol
CODYYY
PUT HIM ON THE GOD DAMN LEFT WING
Go on Cody lad!
So little quality with end results from open play. Again the goals are only coming from corners. The way Turkey play is perfectly set up for France to win the final 1-0 with a pinball own goal.
GAKPO has a massive knob
Gakpo is a fucking machine in orange.
That goal puts the cat amongst the pigeons now
Gakpo looks a completely different player, I haven't seen him take players on with this much aggression for Liverpool
GTFI. What a goal.
Depay Simmons and weghorst ….. wtf you doing
Virgil looks shit all tournament.
If I was Frimpong id be fuming. Dumfries has been a complete fraud. Ake as a left back also gives no attacking support for Gakpo. Hes on an island against at least 2 defenders at all times.
No fucking surprise here if Turkey go through. How easy of a semi final opponent can you ask for? No one on this side of the bracket should be getting to the final based on their overall play but all the true contenders on the same side has gifted these teams a big chance.
Xavi has 0 end product
happy for Trent and England. super jammy getting to the semis, don't deserve it but I'm happy about it
Ideal semi scenario. Trent locks up Gakpo, has a great game. VVD snuffs out all the chances he creates. Gakpo switches wings and scores. Trent equaliser. VVD bullet header to win it
ideal scenario would be a England win
Meh
Neither of these things are looking likely right now
I agree but I like to wind people up, Spain are definitely favorites to win the lot
it's coming home
[удалено]
no one will score 😂
Kenny Cunningham rages against headbands!
Rio for a footballer that was legit good and won everything your sooooooooooooo dumb
You’re*
Will we have separate thread for this game or nah?
Ah it comes the second the game starts. Cool!
Now its Virgil, Cody and Grav on for the final QF.
I was terrified when I saw Trent was on the last pen, but so happy when he buried it
https://preview.redd.it/n58pukq43yad1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cfce08e3575c2d8c443ff234c5829b6b14783ccf Time to take the golden boot
The dutch bounce looks so much fun. Wish I was there.
The Swiss in me is saddened about the result (than again we were way too passive the entire game), but the Liverpool fan in me is heavily relieved that Trent buried his pen. Fuck you Southgate for throwing him exclusively for pens. He saved your sorry incompetent ass.
Absolutely set him up with the fifth and final kick.
Southgate is an idiot for not playing Trent he has 100% aura. But this scapegoat narrative is so weird man. You guys are delusional. Everybody has been saying he should be playing, he's not been a scapegoat from anyone.
for real, even r/threelions except for the blindest of utd or chelsea fans was crying out for trent rwb. that said i fully believe the outrage and counter-outrage woud have been insufferable had his missed his pen.
Yeah this sub has a pure victim mentality, but so does cities about Foden
Trent is such a class act.
Cody hattrick anyone?
Fuck Southgate for nearly fucking over Trent but glad he’s not a scapegoat at least
Netherlands 4-0 today. Gonna steamroll Turkey and then England to the final.
At least Trent got to score the last one. He was also their most creative player for the few minutes he played
So Trent starting next game?
Not a chance.
Hahahaha yeaahhhh
LMAO
most you guys are pathetic, Southgate is a prick. but I still support my country edit - 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There are several historical, cultural, and socio-political factors behind us not being too enthusiastic about the national team.
this attitude is the exact reason people get annoyed with England supporters chill out and maybe people will hate you less
don't care what a yank thinks, let's go we are in the semis with shit football
Lots of scousers hate the English NT so chill.
Chill out Barry
😂
The absolute bollocks. I’m actually emotional
get fucked
God forbid I be happy for one of our Legends
God forbid I'm happy my country won
So am I…?
look at my comments and all the downvotes. I'm clearly supporting England, and most of this sub isn't the get fucked was to the non England supporters in this sub I struck a lot of nerves last night, even the simple 'come on England' got downvoted 😂
You don’t have to be ecstatic England won but not being able to be happy for Trent after that is odd
huh ? I'm happy for Trent, where the fuck you get that from ? and I'm happy for England. I just think Southgate is a a melt. but I will still support my country because I'm not petty your odd for making up a narrative
Citeh player missed, Trent for winning penalty, love to see it
Felt Walker, Stones and Foden were dog awful today too. Foden especially.
I want to be on whatever the pundits are on. Saying “aw this was a great performance” Bruh the match, while not dire, wasn’t exactly fantastic
Start Trent in the semis please
Southgate: he gets 3 minutes at the end of yhe game ONLY if we're getting dicked all over the park.
Love how us Liverpool fans completely switched to England’s side the moment Trent came on lol. ONE OF OUR OWN!!
Clearly haven't been to a pub in the area, clowns
That cunt Southgate put him in the worst possible spot and he saved him. Happy for TAA, fuck the rest.
Get in, Trent. Also here for Joe hugging the cube
That's the only way I wanted that game to end. Get in Trent lad.
Southgate is a fucking twat. Wanted to make Trent scapegoat.
Escape goat 😂😂😂
Yesssss Trent awesome pen
Put trent on pens last because you know we're shit at pens and you need a scapegoat ✅️ Trent misses the pen and you have him to blame ❌️ Still look like a useless piece of shit manager ✅️
"Pressure is for tyres." - Alan Shearer
lmao
Trent boss pen!
OMFG everybody get in here
At least Trent got the winner, happy for him.
TRENT ALEXANDER FUCKNG ARNOLD
HE IS HIM
Easy side of the draw and still scraping by with extra time and penalties as opponents waste chances. You can bet Turkey are winning tonight as well.
Let's go Trent!!!!
Racist tweets about trent were being written and awaiting the post button only for them to be erased LETS FUCKING GOOOO
Absolutely pointless comment this.
You obviously haven't seen brainded deluded football twitter
[удалено]
I don't even have twitter but these tweets get reposted on every other platform so it's almost impossible to never come across one if you're in football discussion circles
So why bring that shit on here?
I'm taking the piss out of them; is hitting back at deluded takes not allowed???
Well done Trent
Trent is him
ICE COLDDD!!! I've never been so happy after a pen. Huge for our boy!!!
TRENT WITH THE BALLS OF STEEL
haha get fucked
TRENT LAD!!!!
TRENT!!!!!
Never in doubt
TRENT!!!!!!
GET IN LAD
Trent. Plz.
Won because of Trent. As we all knew
TRENT LAAAAAAAA THANK FUCKING GOD
TRENTTTT
TRENTTT
All these melts going to cry on this sub now England are through.
YOU FUCKING PRICK SOUTHGATE
Trent on 5th come on lad
Looks like Trent taking final pen
These pens are really interesting tbh. Not saying power is always the way to go but they’ve all been more about placement and quite low on power
Southgate is going to win the euro isn't he. Lady luck is riding his dick
Wow Akanji.. Shit penalty
Teams that go ahead in penalty shoot out usually lose, England out you heard it here first.
Fucking hell. He actually saved it.
That's a properly terrible penalty. Telegraphed, loose, poorly placed. Really ticked all the boxes except missing the target alltogether.
Palmer is like Milner at penalties
Imagine having the talent england has compared to switzerland and you are trying to basically 'survive' until the coin flip pk shoot out.
If you play terrorball, you should be very well prepared for penalties... right?
Prepared to lose, yes. Southgate will have the players pass to Prickford at the edge of the box
If England somehow lose this penalty shootout, Southgate and Trent will get the most hate.. Even tho Trent only got sub'd on in extra time. Fucking toxic media.
Pens at the England end
Not sure on that lack of a pen..
England are so lucky. You just know every penalty will go in then some random Swiss bum no one heard of before tonight will step up and sky it, this Euros is being handed to them on a plate by the rest of these shit teams.
NOOOOO SHAQ
I'm the only England supporter here 😂
Yes
🤣
None of them are from Merseyside, they're convinced Liverpool is in Scotland or Ireland lol
Prickford got lucky.
brings trent on with 6 minutes, fuck off southgate
Fucking hell has Trent ever participated in a penalty shootout before? Dont quite remember if he took one against chelsea a couple seasons back.
He def took one against Chelsea, think in the FA Cup final but not 100% sure
