Euro 2020 - Live Match Discussion And General Chat

I would say that wasn’t Andre Gray, it was Lionel Messi in an Andre Gray mask.

 

Possibly!

 

Poland for once have a chance to progress, instead of not performing until it's too late - Group E wide open now!

 

I love that Lewandowski header, incredible leap.

I’m surprised misery guts Murphy didn’t find something wrong with it. What a supercilious ****head he is. Watching something not work and saying the opposite should have happened isn’t punditry or commentary, it’s just a northern bloke whinging. Honestly, sounded like Karl ******* Pilkington at times.

 

A couple of times in their games there has been a corner, they take it short and after a few passes it is back on halfway being safely shuffled between players.

 

Lots of changes for Italy.

 

I wouldn't be unhappy with a battling narrow defeat for Wales today, considering it's away in Rome against a skillful, hard-working, team-focussed Italian side.

A draw would be immense.

 

Urgh. Camera pans across to Vialli.

 

Seferoviiiiic!!!!

Good hit that.

Typical he scores in the game that probably none of us are watching (I'm on the Wales game, where Moore is disappointingly left out due to being on a yellow).

 

The Swiss are finding more holes in this defence than they'd find in their cheese.

 

Italy with nothing to play for allowing Wales to play out a 1-0 defeat. Had Wales played Italy first, they would have been hammered and Switz would have gone through.

 

Had my auntie had nuts etc.

Must have been tense as a welsh fan watching that.

 

I admit that I haven't watched many of the games yet but from what I've seen ITV's coverage is much better than the BBC's. Of course Jug Ears is as smug, useless and irritating as ever but why not try to get a few pundits who can offer some interest or insight other than the usual morons and Alex Scott

 

Rio Ferdinand is making himself look a right pillock this tournament so far but Danny Murphy has to be the worst pundit out there. Really poor tournament for BBC which is impressive when you see ITV have Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon. Struggling to think of any BBC pundits worth listening to, not that you'd hear them because Micah Richards would shout over them.

 

But he says such nice things on twitter .......

 

More Alex Scott please.

In fact just replace the pre match guff with a video of Alex going about her day and I’d be well happy with that.

 

Hasn't the Scotland bubble been infected with Covid since pre-tournament?

 

But they would have picked up a second infection from that before now. The players are very regularly tested. This must be a new one.

 

Guedioura style belter for Denmark’s third.

 

Denmark are my new favourite team. Bloody brilliant to watch and the fans are sensational.

Could you imagine England turning up like this if they really had to with their best player out?

Nope.

 

And they can drink beer while watching the game

 

England haven’t got a “best player”.

 

Either Denmark or Wales will be in the quarters then, that should be a good game.

 

England through without even playing.

 

Murphy is amazing as a pundit. Has pre prepared stuff to say irrespective of context:

Commentator: “this ref had a busy time in France - 7 reds issued in his last 4 games”

Murphy:”Indeed. The passion this team showed in the first time against Belgium after what happened was fantastic”.
