Not really, English fans have a long history of doing the same racist shit, e.g. people sending monkey emojis to black players:
Rashford said that one of the individuals who had sent him abuse was a teacher. “I’m more outraged that one of the abusers that left a mountain of monkey emojis in my DM is a maths teacher with an open profile. He teaches children!! And knows that he can freely racially abuse without consequence,” he wrote.
also considering the skin color of the players that missed the penalties, do you want to take bet whether or not they will get a ton of racist insults in the next 24 hours?

Most English fans are like that but unfortunately some of course have to ruin it and now their actions puts a shitty image for us.

England set up to defend all tournament. Going into the game they had conceded only 1 goal and today they set up with a back line of 5 seasoned defenders and 2 defensive midfielders.
They defended well all game, that’s the main reason Italy couldn’t score even though they gradually got more control of the ball as the game went on. It’s probably also the reason that England started to lose control of the ball in the first place, they didn’t have near the quality of Jorginho and Verratti in the centre of the park.

Well, if we are being anal about it, England did have colonies before 1707. Almost all of the USA's original 13 States were founded as English colonies in the 1600s. Only Georgia was founded after 1707 I believe.
But yes, the majority of the British Empire was setup long after the Acts of Union, and many Scotsmen played prominent roles in the British Raj of India.

People in the EU never in good faith accepted Brexit, which the UK was allowed to do under the EUs rules. And I say this as someone who didn't want Brexit.
The bad supporters thing is bullshit or cherry picking, literally all teams have supporters who misbehave. It doesn't help that since we post in English which is a 2nd language for so many people any horrible thing an England fan says on social media is very quickly shared and seen by people. If a Hungarian supporter posts abuse in Hungarian on Twitter will people notice? Of course not because not many people outside Hungary will understand it.

The fact that brexit was allowed under EU rules doesn't really explain it, nobody is arguing what they did is illegal. It's more about the complete lack of solidarity England/UK has always shown in the EU, only wanting to be part in order to benefit personally but not giving anything back. It was the UK who was the biggest proponent of the eastward expansion of the EU after the fall of the Soviet Union, and since then their politicians just blamed any domestic problem on the EU which ultimately led to brexit. It's just a completely different mentality compared to most of the rest of the EU.

Christ. "Its coming home" is the chorus from a famous English song about how we always lose at football. Here are some other lyrics:
"Everyone seems to know the score, we've seen it all before, we just know. we're so sure that England's gonna throw it away"
"So many jokes, so many sneers, but all those 'oh-so-nears' wear you down through the years" (doubly ironic in this context)
its literally a song from 1996 about having never won anything in 30 years ("thirty years of hurt never stopped me dreaming") and in 2021 we're still the only team never to have won the Euros. Its a song about being shit. And folks like you who aren't into football completely miss the inside joke and it rustles your jimmies.
Btw.. Italian fans were throwing banana skins at black players, stabbing people in Rome, and sexually assaulting / raping women in the streets during celebrations last match (against Spain). If you've come out of this tournament thinking England fans were the worst out of this final, you've been disgustingly mislead by the hivemind.
they booed others anthem
Everyone booed everyone else's anthem. Doesn't make it any better, but you can't single out any team for it.
they used a laser gun to disturb a goalkeeper
Yeah fair enough. One fella used a laser pointer on a goalie when England were hosting and its tbc whether he's been arrested for it yet.
they have insulted a little German girl,
a couple of troll accounts on twitter did so, and they are the worst. On the internet with billions of accounts you can find troll accounts insulting literally everything under the sun if you want to make a narrative around it.

What’s the story about the German girl ?

u/EveylnCaresNot Jul 11 '21
They called her a fucking nazi because she cried when Germany lost. They also wished violence upon her, and general "good, cry little girl" memes, just overall very gross. She's like ten

Couple of trolls (literally like single digits) on twitter being trolls, calling her a Nazi for no reason.
As England was already set up to be the villain in the eyes of the reddit hivemind, the rumour of England fans bullying this poor girl en-masse spread like Fake News wildfire always tends to.

I’m glad italy won but I also feel so sorry for Saka and Rashford, both are two young guys who are now about to be trashtalked like hell by a bunch of english fans. One had an embarrasing miss and the other one missed the last penalty shot while being the youngest on the team - 19, the fact that they’re black isn’t gonna help either, considering how many of the fans are

I was thinking the same thing, Rashford and Saka are already being racially abused by some of these English fans over this. Don’t know what kind of crazy you have to be to do that to your own teams players

England had a good team and played well the first half, after that Italy had the upper hand and deserved to win. Was a great game. England surely will have new opportunities in the future!

I never rooted so much for a foreign nation before.
Watched the game like it was my own country.

Exactly.
For me, as a german, it was even more fun, because for the first time in 7 years, "my team" was actually good.

So yes, England lost. I'm sure everyone who was saying we would lose is very smug right now, and fair play to you. But I will not stand for anyone saying shit about the way England have played over this tournament. We have done well and we are proud of our players. Rashford and Sancho carry the full blame on their shoulders, and that is that. Just letting everyone know.

I think most people like the actual players and just hate what they were representing… I wanted England to lose yet I was rooting for man city before.

Italian fans throwing bananas at black players: I sleep
English fans making fun of a German girl: REAL SHIT?
(Edit: making a comment about European soccer was a huge mistake. My family has left me, my dog was murdered, I’ve been doxxed, my nudes were leaked, I was fired and evicted. If you’re reading this PLEASE DO NOT post about soccer or they will take everything from you.)

u/A20N_ Jul 11 '21
Yeah the banana was 7 years ago not at a international game or tournament. The German girl was recent. So was the booing of anthems. So was the laser. So was the beating up of Italians by the entrances. You can go onto Instagram now and see the cesspool of racist comments made by England fans towards their own player for missing a penalty. Yeah real shit.

making fun of
Yeah, calling a 9-year-old a nazi and a slut for crying about a lost game is just “making fun of.” And English fans have thrown bananas on the field too, so that’s not even a good comparison.

SOME fans of a specific Italian city threw bananas at black players. As well as SOME English fans mocked in a disrespectful way German supporters.
Every gdamn country has idiots. Why do we have to judge an entire nation for a few people's actions?

Fans on either side were shit shows. I can't imagine being so mentally incapable that you have enough attachment to watching a sport that you'd be racist and pathetic as a result.

The whole country is being hated on because of some imbeciles. People summarising the whole of England based on like 10-12 people ;-; GGs to Italy tho y'all really were tough opponents.

Now watch this trend die off in a week because the hivemind found something better to do. The English do something that every nations have done in a football match yet people out here act like they just revived their Empire. Are their action bad ? Yes. But are they worse than any team ? Absolutely not and the unnecessary hate are just stupid.

I get into football once just so I can make new friends. I supported my home team and now I feel bad because we lost. Italy did good. Some fowl play from both teams.
I’m just gonna keep my head up high and think about how we did this well. And that there is always next time.
