Heartbroken 😦
We came so close
Chants of “it’s coming home” have been growing by the day
My workplace threw their entire support behind our boy by transforming the workplace into an England decorated zone
And the English squad, in turn, grew our hopes that this could be the year that football truly came home
But it was not to be
Croatia are a study in perseverance and determination
1-0 down for 60 minutes of the game and completely dominated by England yet they kept working to wear our boys down until they finally got the break they were looking for
Overall it’s been a successful campaign for England, we weren’t expecting to go this far
Nobody was
It’s been a very long time since an English squad captured the hearts and hopes of its nation and this young squad certainly did that but this time around it wasn’t enough
I’m not even a football crazed guy
Far from it but yet the pain of loss is still real
We came so close
Our boys did us proud
It WILL eventually come home
Just not this time
Let the Lions Roar!!!!
