Euro 2016

[Aliaz]

Our so-called coach keeps talking about our players showing "shining" (courage and determination). All I think of is this:

Beating Belgium in the last game? Fat chance.

Now that's low^

All we're missing is Blackmask trolling the thread with doom and gloom about the host nation. What with rioting Russians, striking French unions, flooding and possible terrorist attacks he's really late to the party

Better send him a pm.

Remember when I called this thread an oasis?

maybe he's following the copa.

Fingers crossed for a TIE between Belgium and Ireland.

Aaaaand that will be that. Good luck to Belgium, Italy and Sweden (if you're still in with a chance?) for the remainder.

that was a bad loss.

Yep. 2012 flashbacks or what.

Everyone still has a chance. We need to beat Belgium to go through. Ireland has to beat Italy while we draw/lose to Belgium. If both win we will probably go through because we have better goal difference at the moment.

If both Sweden and Ireland lose/draw Sweden are placed third at the moment but 1 or 2 points will probably not be enough to be in the top 4 third placed teams that go through.

Gutted for Iceland. It was a brave performance.

Come on Austria! Give the tournaments biggest baby something to cry about

 

[Aliaz]

I was just waiting for Hungary to score, they looked very good after their subs came on.

Iceland should be proud anyway, 2 draws in their first ever tournament. Nice to see Gudjohsen get his tournament debut also.

 

[Collectorcol]

HA HA!!!

 

[BagginsOfBagEnd]

Well done Austria!! Glad they were able to get something from the game.

That missed penalty though ...and a disallowed goal - that'll give him something to sulk about!! Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke!!

 

[Aliaz]

Very nice end to my evening!

Well Swedens chances to go through placing third in the group are pretty much dead now that Albania won yesterday. So it's just a win now against Belgium that counts now...fat chance!

Tonight I'm supporting Slovakia and Wales.
