Five absolutely brilliant penalties from the boys, much like last Sunday we probably don’t deserve it but they’ve shown the absolute bottle to overcome it. It’ll come to an end on Wednesday likely by the winners of the next QF but maybe, just maybe
 


Once, in the meagre shelter offered by a Russian hovel, with the snow howling at the door and the Cossacks closing in, Napoleon Bonaparte was presented with the name of one of his colonels. The man was being recommended for promotion. The French Emperor asked the colonel’s superior whether the recommendation was true – was this colonel really one of the best officers in the Grande Armee? The superior proceeded to wax verbose on the colonel’s many merits. Napoleon stopped him mid-sentence.

“All this may be so,” said the diminutive titan of military might. “But is he lucky?”

I don’t think it’s fair to say England didn’t deserve it. It was a pretty even match, either side would’ve deserved the win.
