England's EURO 2016 started exactly as you would expect England's EURO 2016 to start.

The Three Lions failed to win their opening match, and now face a bit of an uphill battle in qualifying from the group. The night started with a flurry of corners from England, which, for some unknown reason, Harry Kane was in charge of taking. We can only assume that this was how Harry Kane was chosen for that role... https://twitter.com/Stirling061/status/741721167778709504 https://twitter.com/JamesDallESPN/status/741723960002416640 Generally, everything started pretty well. https://twitter.com/SimonBrundish/status/741719604318310400 But it became apparent England were going to... well, be English about the whole thing by not scoring their chances. https://twitter.com/frankieboyle/status/741720761266769920 It all started to fall apart. https://twitter.com/kenearlys/status/741724102763909120 And the anger of a nation soon became focused upon Raheem Sterling. https://twitter.com/arseblog/status/741724904236670978 https://twitter.com/DUCKmagstoke/status/741724899937538048 https://twitter.com/JamesTylerESPN/status/741726849953304577 It got so bad that a guy with the Twitter handle @Woy started to get abuse from England fans. https://twitter.com/woy/status/741715957161299968 Surely it wasn't *this* bad though... https://twitter.com/BeautifullyRed/status/741725381015838720 Oh God... it was pretty bad. https://twitter.com/LFCOffside/status/741727341584494593 Until, all of a sudden, Eric Dier decided to tell Harry Kane to get back in his fucking lane and let somebody else take set pieces. https://twitter.com/Moraband106/status/741728851861110784 https://twitter.com/fateiskind/status/741729041896574977 https://twitter.com/davewi11/status/741728854918762498 https://twitter.com/JackGrealish1/status/741729054043299840 https://twitter.com/gunnerblog/status/741729126114045954 https://twitter.com/gstobart/status/741730175335989248 https://twitter.com/henrywinter/status/741729600955375617 But then... obviously, England conceded a goal in injury time and the whole thing ended in a thoroughly predictable 1-1 draw. https://twitter.com/kenearlys/status/741733363451564032 https://twitter.com/RWhittall/status/741733450525356032 https://twitter.com/tim_brannigan/status/741733471270404096 https://twitter.com/johncrossmirror/status/741733477536681984 https://twitter.com/BeechardRich/status/741733528849809408
