I thought Konsa played really well - what a great header for the second goal.

Cracking header. Bbc online reporter Emma Smith called it a "flick". Bit more than that.

Just watched the highlights, was this a charity game?

Great to see some flare and goals, but boy there weren’t many tackles being made.. 😂

Plain wrong.

I can't say it bothers me in the slightest. It's ten minutes in a one-off game, so what? Extra time for me to get a round in and go for a piss without missing any of the match, too.

I wonder if BBC/ITV are contractually obligated to broadcast the show and, if not, whether they will or won't.

We should introduce a bronze match in the FA Cup.

There used to be, from 1970-74.

Small Heath won one of them so let's never speak of that again.

You're not looking forward to the half-time show curated by Chris Martin and featuring Coldplay?

Not sure about whether they are obliged to, but they are both doing so.

I’ll set my Sky box to record the game, start watching about 9pm, fast forwarding through the dull bits and HT bollox.

Will turn off as soon as the game is over through fear of Drumpf appearing at the presentation
