Would never have been a goal if Trippier was an inch or two taller ...

Inevitable, given that England just spent the last 10 mins lumping the ball. There are times when possesion football is needed

To be fair, Columbia have been despicable and what the ref has let them get away with to make a game has been unbelievable.

Dont know if I'm being harsh but whys he's tried to get it over the bar, looks like he got a decent amount of fod to it? Could he have got it forward?

True, but this England team has been better at diving and time wasting than any I've seen. Neither team looks good after this game

Just joking . Didn't you read all the comments that Pickford should have saved the last goal against Belgium if he were just an inch or two taller?

Really? Obviously differing opinions, I can take that.

Dier, on the other hand, Southgate shot too quick.

Sterling adds an extra spark and England don't look the same without him on the field.
