How did they manage that? Did the players go to the dressing room?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Danny Murphy also said De Bruyne is one of the best midfielders of all time.
Unsporting to taunt Xhaka about a provocative gesture during a game against Serbia.
Think we'll beat Columbia quite comfortably.
2-0 to England, Lingard and Kane the goal scorers.

It was uncalled for in a match, no doubt, but considering what his father went through, there was no need to mock it. Of course, the fine was justified.
Haven't read anything about swedish players mocking Xhaka's albanian eagle. Where's this story from? All I've read was Lustig saying it was easy to get Xhaka off balance, that he takes stupid cards which in fair is completely true.
Sweden have mocked Xhaka for doing it during the match (they apparently copied his celebration). I have not read anywhere that they have mocked the symbolism behind it. The eagle is a nationalistic gesture, Xhaka said it was for his homeland not just his father. It wasn't a personal celebration, it was a political statement because of which team it was done against.
The above are reasonable grounds for mocking, because it brought players into things they were not involved in.
Haha this is basically how I feel. They are just so boring in every way (great mountains and recreation, though).
Supporting Switzerland only to fit my prediction that they're going to make a semifinal.
Are we ready for a Switzerland - Uruguay final ?
Wonder if Forsberg will finally turn up tonight.
Is he definitely out ?
Italian video referee. Payback time..
Pity. Would have liked to see England tested against full strength Colombia.
Going for a Switzerland win here. 2-1
And England to beat Colombia piss easy. 3-0

My word the empty seats! There were more people than this at the cricket in Ireland last week!
Yikes 
Berg is terrible, don’t they have anyone else?
Wow. Shot like a defender, didn't even look up. Terrible!
Berg auditioning for the NFL
Horrendous technique from Berg.
That shot
Where the F was the tomato aiming at? Was in the clear.
And another one.
And another one.
Good clearance tbf
Just raced home from work, can't remember the last time I was this hyped for our national team.
Nice to see Berg already messing up two great chances...

Omg Berg you...
Berg, delete your account!!
No wonder he isn't prolific
From Larson to ibra to BERG
It's a miracle Sweden have scored 5 goals in this WC with no decent finishers.
Also funny how shit guidetti must be if he cannot even displace Berg.
We're all over them.
All their faults aside, Zlatan-less Sweden look good.
I’ve actually put £10 on that before. Returns over £2k
Berg, worst player in last 16?
Dammit. No red button there to change the commentary.
You're shooting like a Rugby team trying to play football.
Sweden should win this, but you just know Xhaka or Shaqiri is going to score a worldie and make it closer than it deserves to be.
24th ranked Sweden should beat the 6th in the world ranked side who have lost one of their last 25 matches? The weird thing is that I think so too but don't understand why!
Do we all just underrate Switzerland because they're so massively boring?
This feels like an international friendly.
