Bab 973: Two Minutes

Twain made two substitutions in one go. Vaughan was the player who replaced Agbonlahor, and Downing was substituted by Cohen.

Twain was only able to make his substitutions this quickly because Italy had been awarded a free kick in England's half of the pitch. If not, the two players would have stood by the side of the pitch for quite some time.

The England fans immediately started booing Balotelli, after they cheered for Agbonlahor as the latter walked off the pitch. The fans appear to have reached a tacit agreement to disrupt Balotelli by booing him every time he takes the free kick or the corner kick.
