    An England backlash? Or can Italy shock the world Cup finalists?

    Have at it

    I'm expecting England to still struggle a bit to get back to form. And Italy to be Italy. Could be a messy affair.

    Me too, I think Italy will be competitive here for large portions of the game.

    As I understand it. Officially they have a minute silence as a stand against racism. Obviously everyone respects and supports this.

    Taking the knee is a show of support for black lives matter. Not everyone supports everything black lives matter stands for. It's got a lot of political and activist shenanigan baggage. Players do it or not as a personal thing.

    Great to see a referee watch the offside line. England's defence is very ordinary when they are kept onside

    Harsh penalty. The reason he still had hands on was because England were holding on.

    Referee has gone on holiday the last 5 mins. That wasn't difficult

    Was hoping they might show a replay. Looked obvious to me.

    Try looked like a double movement too.

    Why weren't the Italians screaming for a knock on review?

    Massive double movement.

    Joy Neville misses quite a few big things in the booth it has to be said.

    Ah feck - good few bites of the apple there from Cowan Dickie who's on my team but Hill gets it.

    Big knock on missed in the run up there.

    Have to feel sorry, refs are constantly saying “if there’s something TMO will catch it” when players are shouting and asking and then you see this. Must be infuriating.

    Terrible reffing. Held on the ground and walking on his knees.

    "itoje plays on the edge"

    Actually is illegal a lot of the time and it's good to see refs pull him up on it.
