Euro 2016 Discussion

All talk about the tournament can go here.

First half between France and Romania done, and man France should be up 3-1 at this point.

Pogba has ridiculous hair

[Cory]

WHAT. A. HIT

[Cory]

Oh England, needed more Vardy.

A good opening weekend of games.  Some great goals - Payet for France and Modric for Croatia will be contenders for goals of the tournament.

England played really well for the first half against Russia, then Englanded it up again.  With so many Spurs players in the team it's no surprise they choked.  Still, was a cruel way to concede that late on - but the game should've been long over by then.  Sterling is quick but has no end product and gives the ball away way too much.  Rooney and Dier look like a good midfield pairing.  Not sure what happened to Kane and Vardy should've been on with 20-25 mins to go.

Wales deserved their win and the game against England is now going to be a must see.

Germany looked solid but missing a main striker - Gotze looked so out of place up front by himself.

Northern Ireland v Poland was so boring I fell asleep.

Looking forward to the games today - first chance to see Spain and Republic v Sweden should be good.  Belgium v Italy could be great or they could cancel each other out.

It's just been a pity the behaviour of the fans off the pitch hasn't matched the quality on it.  The security for England v Russia in and around the stadium sounds like it was terribly planned and executed.  Plus there's been fighting with other groups of fans too.  Hoped those kind of mouth breathing morons had been left in the 80s but looks like they're back.  Sadly.

Still, it's been a good first weekend!  Here's hoping for more good games and less idiots cause trouble.

Ugh, that Spain game put me to sleep. Hopefully the Irish and Zlatan will put on a show in a few minutes and then Italy/Belgium being the first big blockbuster game of the tournament.

[Jon]

Heja Sverige Friskt humör, det är det som susen gör!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jon]

Sweden got out played for the most part... so I will take the draw. Italy up next.

[Cory]

that was a brutal own goal

[Duckman]

Italy looked great last night.  Belgium totally not the sum of their parts.  So much talent but they just don't work hard enough as a team to get results.

Looking forward to the preening Ronaldo making his first appearance - he's the captain of my fantasy footy side!

[Cory]

Hungry with the upset, great game.

[Dorling]

Get in boys!

Glad I sponged an afternoon off college for that.

[Cory]

Oh England, needed more Vardy.

Yup.

[Cory]

What a disappointing game Germany Poland was, had high hopes for it.

However all 3 games tomorrow on paper could be great so fingers crossed.

[Duckman]

Nice to see Woy not just do the usual thing and not act.  England have got all kinds of attacking flair, good to see it put to use and successfully too.  Hopefully that's Hart got his 'one blunder per tournament' out of his system! 

Germany looked totally off the pace last night.  Very boring game.

Hoping tonight and the weekend see things back on a decent level.

Been a fun tournament so far - lots of late, late goals!
