Euro 2024

[sparky]

Hungary score in the last minute. Time for the Scots to pack up their bagpipes.

[sparky]

Scotland will moan about the penalty shouts but they were speculative.

They have been very negative and leggy throughout this second half.

Hungary deserved winners.

[sparky]

Scotland out before the knock outs yet again.

[sparky]

Varga in hospital but in a stable condition apparently.

[sparky]

Well at least they are consistent.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Don't come home too soon...

Surely that should be Scotland

Like Ireland in RWC

[sparky]

@Machpants At least the Irish Rugby team can get to the knockouts, but yeah the same consistent disappointment for their noisy supporters.

More teams in the soccer comp so about the same

Scotland had plenty of hope. Misguided admittedly.

Spain beat Albania and top their group with a 100% record.

Italy scored a last-minute equaliser against Croatia so Croatia are out. Italy finish second in the group.

England are now in the last 16 whatever happens in their match tomorrow against Slovenia.

[KiwiPie]

@sparky Looking at the way the draw pans out, England need a win to ensure they top the group as 2nd spot plays Germany then Spain which is not an easy road to the semi-finals - group winner gets the winner of Swiss v Italy if they get past their 3rd place finisher in the last 16 - that game may be the loser of Netherlands v Austria or Austria if it is a draw. I think.

[sparky]

@KiwiPie One side of the draw is already looked stacked and the other side easier. England can get on the easier side by beating Slovenia this evening.

Incredible ending to Italy / Croatia. Absolute heartbreak for Modric and team. Many of them were literally sobbing at the conclusion.

Two games decided in literally the last 30 seconds of a long overtime. Incredible drama.

Both of those teams have been all sorts of ordinary. I actually think Switzerland can beat Italy. If they don’t choke.

[Billy Tell]

Savage game Dutch vs Austria. Altogether a fantastic tournament so far.

[Billy Tell]

England look a bit lost again. Foden has been better. The English attack looks devoid of ideas. A Slovenia goal would make this very interesting

[Bovidae]

Southgate's managerial nous is summed up by swapping TAA for Gallagher. Move Foden to the middle of the park and play either Gordon or Palmer wide left. He's far too conservative.
