This really is anyone's tournament!!

One of these teams will be in the World Cup final:

- Russia
- Croatia
- Switzerland
- Sweden
- Columbia
- England

Read that a couple of times. One of those 6 teams! In the final!

England will never have a draw open up like this again!

Nobody can bemoan the Belgium defeat now and coming 2nd.

This is our best opportunity ever. We will no doubt blow it, but the opportunity is undeniably there!!

Has to be Sweden over Switzerland (surely)? They were asking Sven Eriksson which team he would support if it was Sweden v England and he said he would hope for a draw (!) before laughing and saying 'Sweden of course!'. If we made the semis and played well but lost I would be happy, but then again I am a QPR supporter....

Proudly supporting QPR

I agree it was a great game mate but disagree about it being the best one so far, for me the best one yet has to be France v Argentina

I am a QPR fan for life, sometimes happily!

Been a weird world cup with so many bg teams going out early doors.

We have really got a chance this year to get to the semis
But we can't underestimate Columbia
Like Japan lots of pace and capable of scoring wonder goals
Been some good games but also been some really boring games too
To be honest I can't really get into the i love England thing everybody loves Harry Kane,he then scores against Chelsea etc next season then all of a sudden they can't stand him
I'm not unpatriotic I'm just not that bothered around the fake hype by non football fans and pundits in wait to slate the team and manager when things go wrong
Crazy enough we actually could win this World Cup purely down to the shocks we've had
If I was a betting man I'd go for Belgium to win as they showed tonight they have a good squad
If we win the World Cup,so what,I've still got the same job and same bank account etc
Yours and my life isn't going to change World Cup or not
Just players will get richer due to winning the World Cup if they do

Awful way to lose with literally the last kick. If England can beat Columbia it will get the feel good factor and confidence back that we really can do something special.

I'm honestly surprised at your view on that because if QPR lose a match we are getting relegated, the manager needs sacking and the world is going to end!

For me it wont change my life in terms for job, life style etc but it will be something that nearly all the country will remember forever. Just look at what Super Saturday at the London Olympics did for the country, the world cup will be that x 10.

COME ON ENGLAND

Well that was hard to watch!

Finally the penalty shoot out monkey is off our back!

Will the result have us full of confidence or could fatigue now become a factor having played extra time?

We were not great in open play. In the 90 minutes we were the better team but it was a strange match as Ospina never had a save to make. Our movement and interchanging is great at times but it is always in front of the opposition. We still need to step up to go further.

CHAD is right winning produces a feel good factor.
It's a wide open world cup.
You can see how the nation is gripped 24 million watched the game.
Also 10 people in scotland.
The Sweden game will not be easy.
But will be more suited to our play.
And ideal for the likes of Loftus cheek and RASHFORD.

C'MON ENGLAND
