And about three minutes later, one of the Croatian players from the far touchline was coming square across the pitch and he was coming straight into Bellingham and he shaked to give his ball back to his number six.

Benningham bit, jumped, and the Croatian player dragged it and was straight into two centre-backs.

Two minutes later, Rhys James goes in as a six.

Because I think he just basically went, oh, like, Jesus Christ, you know, we can't be having this.

You know what I mean?

And I think that he is that tuned in.

He has people watching the game up above.

And I can promise you, they saw the exact same thing.

you know, they felt that Bellingham would have the discipline to sit there and he just went, oh no, okay, Jed Spence on, Rhys James in as a six.

You know, and I just, I like that, that, you know, he could have easily gone, mistake by Jude, it's fine.

He took no risk.

He got him out of that position as quickly as he could.

Okay, interesting.

but look that's obviously very loose Joe we're one game in so you know luck will play a huge part when you you know you think Argentina won two penalty shootouts in the World Cup last I get it you've been reading the Daily Telegraph all morning you're on the hype train I get it I understand I understand no no I haven't I haven't I haven't so

Yeah, I would say France looked good as well.

But, you know, once you come down to these quarterfinals, semifinals, there's going to be penalty shootouts.

There's going to be referees' decisions.

And if you can fall on the right side of that, I think, you know, Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia and then won two penalty shootouts in the knockout, if I remember correctly.

You know, so they won it.

But, you know, two penalty shootouts is a stretch, you know.
