Lewis Bowden 0:00
All right, ready?

What were the initial reactions to England's victory over Croatia?

Lewis Bowden 0:01
Ladies and gentlemen, I42 would not want to be a Croatia fan right now. By the way, how funny is it that after every goal in the stadium, they played the Darts song? Yeah, they've done their research, haven't they? Yeah, they've done their research. We're off the back of going to the AT&T Stadium in Dallas. No, wrong.
Bert Horobin 0:25
Don't call it that. It's the Dallas Stadium. They've covered all the branding. Yeah, well, they've had to change all the names of the stadium.
Lewis Bowden 0:30
Wait, but that's actually what it's called, though, isn't it?
Bert Horobin 0:32
It's the AT&T Stadium, but for the World Cup, it's called the Dallas Stadium.
Lewis Bowden 0:34
Sorry, apologies to the AT&T Stadium. It's currently called the Dallas Stadium. We're off the back of going there and watching England absolutely rifle Croatia 4-2. It should have been about 6-2.
Gabriel Antoniazzi 0:45
I will say, walking through the doors there, it was one of the most mind-boggling things I've ever seen. I've been to many stadiums at this point, but you walk in and it's the immediate stadium you see. It's so huge and it's so steep.
Lewis Bowden 0:59
Genuine question, we're fans of obviously a lot of... places in the UK in terms of like football stadiums. I think there's a lot of stadiums in the UK that are brilliant football stadiums. Is that the best stadium you've ever been to? By far and away, that is the best ground I've ever been to.
Gabriel Antoniazzi 1:14
I don't think it's the best football stadium. It's a great, it's a fantastic stadium. And it converts into stadiums. Nah, mate, come on.
Bert Horobin 1:20
If you can't see the pitch, you can see the full...
Gabriel Antoniazzi 1:22
I genuinely don't know how to express it.
Lewis Bowden 1:25
That screen is about 150 metres wide.
Gabriel Antoniazzi 1:27
I think that's what ruins it though for a football stadium. I don't know how to express it. For me, it's an unbelievable stadium. But it's like, if I'd rather go to any stadium in England.
Lewis Bowden 1:39
You could see everything. 75.
Gabriel Antoniazzi 1:42
No, but I don't know what it is.

How did the stadium experience impact the fans' enjoyment?

Gabriel Antoniazzi 1:44
But there's less... There's less, I don't know. It's great, but it's too big.
Lewis Bowden 1:51
I think it's just too big.
Bert Horobin 1:54
You know what, obviously when you guys were, I was there like three hours before kickoff. When I walked in, it was complete, no, it was empty. Not a soul in the stadium. Oh, really? It was the most weirdest thing I've ever seen.
Lewis Bowden 2:04
You were the first person in.
Bert Horobin 2:04
Of course, because you went onto the pitch, it's very different. No, no, no, just walking in the stadium and seeing, I didn't know it was going to be indoors until I saw it.
Lewis Bowden 2:10
Or it's too hot otherwise.
Bert Horobin 2:11
It's way too hot otherwise. Hydration breaks. Bro, it's cold in the stadium.
Lewis Bowden 2:16
They AC'd the stadium, that's why.
Bert Horobin 2:18
So today in Dallas it was about 35 degrees. It's like they played at the O2. Yeah.
Gabriel Antoniazzi 2:22
That's how it felt. So if you're watching this, if you watch the game at home, boys, basically as soon as the hydration break happens, there's an echo and a massive amount of boos around the stadium, which I love. It's because it is just bullshit. Like, There's no need for a hydration station in a fucking aircon. There's no need for a hydration station when you have aircon, is there? It's fucking cooler than when they play at all.
Bert Horobin 2:48
There's been a lot of stick about Americans and their fans and their stadiums. How did you boys find the American fans and stadium in general?
Lewis Bowden 2:57
I will say, surprisingly a majority of that crowd right are americans with english football tops yeah it was the weirdest it's so strange will and i and obviously lewis as well wanted to do a short form which will be out on the channel at some point with english fans outside the ground beforehand we're rocking up to people going do you want to be on pitch side can we do a short form with you their response is like oh i'm not sure man i'm like what you're you're in the beckham top
Joe Campbell 3:22
What's going on here? They're all Americans. They're all in English.
Lewis Bowden 3:26
Yeah, literally. I don't understand it. I'm pretty sure this entire tournament, they're all just neutral friends. They have no idea about the World Cup. Yeah. They have no idea.
Bert Horobin 3:34
They just need to support whoever's playing.
Lewis Bowden 3:35
Yeah, they're like, yo, this World Cup's pretty rowdy, guys. And a crazy amount of Mexican shirts in that stadium today.
