With England 3-0 up against Scotland after an entertaining game, England fans were feeling pretty happy, but probably not getting carried away.
Enter Clive Tyldesley, who made the dubious claim that the result would “reverberate around Europe”.

Er, what, Clive?#EnglandvScotland #ENGSCO
Our thoughts exactly…
No offence to Scotland, but even they would probably admit they’re hardly at the races at present.
Please tell me he didn't just say...

"This is a result that will 'reverberate' around Europe."
We just beat Scotland.............Scotland!
Twitter wasn’t having any of it.

Discuss.
Germany won 8-0 tonight, Clive. We’re not sure they’re bothered.
"It's a scoreline that will reverberate around Europe." I bet the Germans are shitting themselves that we beat Scotland 3-0 at home.

Clive Tyldesley "this is a result that will reverberate around Europe". No it won't Clive, I'll guarantee Europe won't give a toss.

Former Blue Peter presenter Simon Thomas was unconvinced.
It's not a score line that will reverberate around Europe as was suggested. Scotland are poor and England are OK. #EngvScot

You had to laugh.
Did they just actually say that this result would 'reverberate around Europe' ? 😂 #EnglandvScotland
