Euros 2016

I thought Woy would do better. In fact I figured he wud repeat what Robson achieved. <br><br>
At club level he always knew what he wanted was organisationally strong and produced teams who battled and were defensive walls <br><br>
Given Liverpool and now this he must struggle with "superstars". <br><br>
At least he did blood some promising players [/feathers clutched] -

I cant even understand half of it, still hilarious -
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-author="KiwiPie" data-cid="592820" data-time="1467183500"><p>Strange because for Bobby Robson's 2 "successful" World Cup campaigns (86 & 90) the team started terribly and Robson stumbled across his best team by accident (Wilkins being red carded in 86 and Gazza emerging in 90) and got better as the tournament went on.<br>
<br>
I think maybe the Russia game flattered England - Russia really were awful as subsequent performances proved and gave England so much space, they couldn't help but look at. Each opponent was more canny than the last until Iceland reduced England to a confused rabble.<br>
<br>
Roy Hodgson's media conference performance did him no favours either. Usual self-serving bollocks from every departing England manager.</p></blockquote>
<br>
Fair point. I'm thinking more recently, under Woy and Crapello -

Yep that was my first question to an Irish, Scot or Welshman when they accused me of being an Aussie...I simply had to know where in England they were born!

Polska!

<p>Off to extra time. I got the result correct so far but not the score</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thursday 30 June Poland v Portugal 0-0 Poland on Pens</p>
<p>Friday 01 July Wales v Belgium 0-2</p>
<p>Saturday 02 July Germany v Italy 1-0</p>
<p>Sunday 03 July France v Iceland 1-0</p> -
<p>Germany has never beaten Italy in a knockout game - surprising.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Belgium will be missing 2 of their back four (<span>Vermaelen is suspended and Vertonghen is out of the Euros with injury</span>) so I wouldn't discount Wales winning. Bale vs Hazard to decide the result.</p> -
<p>Poles must be favourites in a penalty shoot out if it comes to that, after their game against Switzerland where they were 5 from 5 in the shootout.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ronaldo will take the 5th penalty for Portugal which I can never understand, I think it is more for the glory if he happens to win the game through his penalty attempt rather than put your better penalty takers first.</p>
