Euros

@kiwipie
de Bruyne is a chance of playing but he would be a huge loss if he couldn't.

I'd like Belgium to win the Euros as this is probably the last real opportunity for this "golden generation" to win a big tournament.

Spain could have wrapped this QF up in regulation but fucked about and Switzerland pegged them back and finished the 90 1-1 despite being down to 10 men

All Spain in Extra Time

Penalties
And misses and saves galore

Spain win it on penalties

Gutted for Switzerland.

Bags of guts and commitment but Spain by far the better team

@mikethesnow
Sure but everyone loves a good underdog story.

[Billy Tell]

Spain a better side but their strikers are useless.

Switzerland really bottled the penalties. Probably fatigue a factor.

Neither side was winning the tournament either way. I hope Italy or Belgium smash Spain.

At least I have the ABs.

[Billy Tell]

This game would not have disgraced a final. Pity it’s a quarter.

[Billy Tell]

Italy are just fabulous to watch. So different to the traditional 1-0 type Italian sides

[Rapido]

Go the All Whites.
We sem to play in every match.
Apparently blue clashes with red?

Yeah, a lot of tired penalty attempts there.

Italy deserved their win over Belgium but they still have some drama queens in their team. I'll be supporting them though.

The last minutes were painful. But some of their play is exquisite.

[ACT Crusader]

Italy deserved winners.

Spain v Italy semi-final will be massive

A lot of "gamesmanship" in the last quarter by Italy...

Check out the cheating fluffybunny on the floor before the second goal

Lazaraso

@mikethesnow The replay of Immobile was hilarious. A miraculous recovery once the goal was scored.

Schmeichel was right to say he should have been yellow-carded for diving.

[No Quarter]

Yep, typical fucking cheating Italians... I'll never forgive them for what they did against the All Whites

[voodoo]

@no-quarter how could you sleep at night

[sparky]

Not a good day yesterday for Nations that make excellent chocolate.

[A Former User]

England off to a good start! Goal from Kane.

Enjoyable so far, as football goes...

[Billy Tell]

Can someone who knows about soccer tell me the point of Luke shaw? I see a holding midfielder with no attacking instinct whose signature move is a gentle tap backwards to the defensive line.

Am I missing something?
