England is essentially through no matter what, right? I don't see many 3rd place teams having more than 4 points if England were to lose this match.

I can't believe I watched the whole match

Very frustrating

Good for Wales eliminating Russia and winning the pool

If you call playing for 3rd in the group strategy. Going to laugh when they don't advance.

Their R16 game rates to be tough as shite. (Likely) either Germany/Poland or Spain/Croatia. Enjoy that. They better do some praying for Northern Ireland to win Group C and hope the third-place table falls correctly.

It was their best chance of advancing... England would've gotten at least 2 goals if they didn't park it.

4 points with a goal difference of 0 gives you basically no chance of advancing.

3 points with a goal difference of -2 gives you absolutely no chance of advancing.

ETA: And considering they've already finished ahead of Albania in the third place standings, they just need to beat out one more team.

Your point would be valid if there were no more group games to play and they knew what it took to advance.

Only 2 third place teams will miss. 4 points should get you through.

Slovakia could advance but its risky with four groups to still be decided.
