And then England get Colombia in the round of 16 and they go ahead and it's quite, like it's a feisty game is how I'd describe it.
And then Yerimina equalises in the dying seconds of stoppage time.
And you have that, you know, just that sinking feeling of, well, penalties.
Jordan Henderson misses the penalties.
They're all brilliant penalties from both sides.
And then actually, to be fair, the one that is saved from Jordan Henderson is still a really good penalty.
Espina's just done a great save for it.
And I remember that moment.
I was watching it with my five-year-old daughter.
I was sort of explaining ahead this is what's going to happen unfortunately this is what happens with England it happens all the time happened I remember watching Germany in Natalia 90 Euro 96 France 98 blah blah blah we know that we know the events and I just said this is what's going to happen and I just couldn't when the Henderson penalty got saved I was like but then that changed that you know you mentioned the culture I know it's a missed penalty but
It just felt like it was all moving in the right direction, hits the bar.
And then again, you get someone like Trippier to step up who just slams at home.
And then Pickford, you know, in my opinion, he's the best England goalkeeper there's ever been.
I'll always remember, the thing I remember most about the Columbia game are the pictures the next day of the players, Harry Maguire, John Stones, looking back.
They're celebrating this iconic moment.
England have won a penalty shootout.
But John Stones and Harry Maguire, even though we're talking about the fun and the positivity,
they've still got that looking back at the Colombian players, sort of as if to say, because it was quite a spiky match, wasn't it?
