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></blockquote>

Hmmm. -
And it's 3-1 now. Wales into the semis.<br><br>Brilliant result for the Welshmen.<br><br>Congrats.

Real shame Ramsey is ruled out. <br><br>
Wales vs Iceland final please. -
<p>Yeah shit that would be amazing!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Looking at the draw, yes it is possible. Just have to take out the Frogs and the Wogs/Krauts ;)</p>

<p>Heart 1 - 1 Head :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What a fantastic, fantastic night of football for Wales.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Tremendous display of character, skill and belief.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The knowledge that we'd beaten Belgium in the qualifying stages gave us the belief to stick to our system & plan and not run around like headless chickens chasing the game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On another night Belgium could have stuffed us, they were that good at creating chances. Their goal was magic. But luck and poor finishing allowed us to play our game and score two good goals and one great goal.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Overachieved beyond belief and Wales woke up groggy but with a smile on its face.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No secret that my heart is oval not round but it's magic to see everyone come together behind this Welsh team. Especially in these uncertain and divisive times for Wales the country.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Win or lose against Portugal, and a win is a very realisitc proposition, this Welsh team has done Wales proud.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Can we make the final? Here are two good Welsh boys to spur us on our way</p>
<p> </p>
<p> -
<p>Well done to the Taffs. Great result and I understand a great game. I saw the wonder goal, absolute cracker.</p>
-
Finally beat those farking eyeties! But dammit some of those penalties were shit.

<p>My Sunday football team would take better penalties than some of those players. There were some real shockers.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>I'd like to say that was because of the 120 draining minutes before that, but some of these players didn't even play 45 mins.</p>
<p>Having two of the world's best goalkeepers in the shootout probably didn't help, though</p> -
I have mixed reactions. Yes it was awesome to finally beat Italy but those 3 penalties from 3 highly experienced players were a bit of a stain on German football. They hadn't missed one in a PS since 1982. Schweinsteiger choked like a little bitch. If England had met that lot in 1990, history might have been very different.
