Euros 2016

[Bovidae]

<p>Yep, Italy were superb.  2-0 was a fairer reflection of the game.  Although Italy have more geriatrics that might be the end of an era for a few Spanish legends (e.g. Casillas, Iniesta).</p>

<p>Iceland - get in there!!! 1-1</p>

[Billy Tell]

Lol. Joe hart is no Buffon. 2-1 Iceland!

[Donsteppa]

England haven't left Europe, They're still holding to the Maginot line...

[canefan]

Typical England, flatter to deceive then choke like dogs. They have one half of football to dig themselves out

Come on you Icelandic pixies! I've had it with the England football team and all the garbage that goes with it.

[Hooroo]

<p>Come on England!  For crying out loud!!!</p>

Fixed it.<br><br><br>
England football team, never been any different. <br><br>
All. My . Fucking. Life.<br><br>
I thought that England had plumbed the depths when we failed to qualify for 74 world cup, but it seems they will always find a new way to screw up, year after year after year.<br><br>
That said, (1) fair play to Iceland and (2) it ain't over yet.

<p>Who needs a referendum? Iceland could have done the job much more cheaply.</p>

Rooney has been utterly terrible in the 2nd 40.<br><br>

<p><strong>78 min: </strong>“I’m sure the rest of Europe watching on won’t be remembering this game for a very long time,” says ITV commentator Clive Tyldeseley, by way of reflection on the quality of the play. I think you’re mistaken, there Clive. I think if Iceland can hang on the rest of Europe watching on will remember this game for a very long time.</p>

But to be fair, I suppose, England are on the tough side of the draw.

[Hooroo]

<p>Unreal!</p>

<p><strong>85 min:</strong> The camera cuts to Roy Hodgson on the England bench. He’s deep in conversation with his No2 Ray Lewington, but looks completely frazzle, bearing the countenance of a man who has no idea what to do next.</p>

<p>It's becoming a national leadership trait...</p>

<p>Masterclass from Italy. IMO the 2 best teams are Italy and Germany, it's a real pity they meet in the 1/4 finals.<br><br>
Belgium will choke, they always do. France have defensive issues.<br><br>
Wales, Portugal, Poland making up the numbers.<br><br>
And we see, but I fancy Iceland in 30 minutes to give England a hurry-up.</p>

<br><p>Why do I never put money where my mouth is :(<br><br>
Well that was 90 minutes well spent<br><br>
England fans must feel like us in 2007. Commiserations.</p>

Came for the Brexit puns.<br><br>
Leaving satisfied.

[canefan]

Second brexit in a week. Pathetic

[taniwharugby]

Haaaaaaahaaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaa!<br><br>
After the RWC I accused the team of being a bunch of overhyped, choking cockwombles. It gives me great pleasure to pass that crown on to a more truly deserving team. Even with England's football's track record in fucking things up, this performance was truly outstanding. Well done guys.
