“YOU MAC US SICK – Cro-ing, Cro-ing gone as England blow it”

“HEAVEN ALP US!”

“McClaren’s Wembley washout”

DAILY TELEGRAPH:

“Unqualified failure”

DAILY MAIL:

“A wally with a brolly”

“Hopeless, hapless, helpless”

“OUT YOU CRO”

DAILY EXPRESS:

“HUMILIATION FOR STEVE’S SHOWER”

“It’s over and out for McClaren”

“You’re a muddy disgrace Mac”

DAILY MIRROR: “I’LL GET ME CROAT”
“FIASCRO”

“CRO, NO! CRO, NO! CRO, YES! CRO, YES! CRO, NO!” – The goals go in
THE SUN:
