About this episode
So near and yet so far…for the second Euros in a row England are runners up. A team and a nation left bereft.
Tom Clarke, Gregor Robertson, Alyson Rudd and Hamzah Khalique-Loonat try to make sense of where it went wrong for England. Was the captain fit, why couldn’t they retain the ball and were they always a safety-first team? What on earth do England need to get over that final hurdle!?
Spain are the first team to win every game at a Euros, so can England really complain, the best team won didn’t they?
Where now for a team of world stars and a manager loved by his players but perhaps now doubted by many fans. Was getting to the final enough, or did performance and silverware matter? Many questions, but for now, few answers… just disappointment.
