Germany opening the tournament. 3-0 at half time against Scotland ... Anyone else watching?

Abserloute whitewash.

Considering what our (Croatian) team showed I'm glad not to be that much into football.

Had a bit of a bad luck of the draw Croatia in the groups to progress earlier on. Against the top teams Imo.

True, but not the best performance regardless.

Well impressed with boyakasha saka. Our (englands) golden boy Imo. Can have 2-3 men on him and rarely losses the ball in a tackle. Crosses spot on. Always alert and ready on the rebounds right place right time.

Aha, I found a football thread on GS.

Interesting result yesterday with Germany going out, they were my favourites for the whole thing. Good job I'm not a betting man!

Not looking forward to watching a lacklustre England against Switzerland today, I'll make sure I have a few beers before it starts so that when I start slapping my forehead in despair it doesn't sting.

Just scraped through. I thaught we were toast the last two goes at goal off the Swiss. Hell of a corner shot.

The Turks have been well surprising me. Seeing Some excellent football off them (currently watching)

This aged well!

Saka best player of all matches today!

Aye, he scored a good goal, low ball through 3 players. got a bit of limelight. Normally he just sets them up from the sides. I think Eze done marvelous at the back today.

After just seeing Holland there... I think England will be very lucky to get to a final.

A slightly stressful England game

I have the Holland/Turkey game recorded to watch today...

Wednesday will be interesting!

is there ever an England game that is NOT stressful.?

I start sweating even when they're beating San Marino!!

I got a strange feeling England are going to win this thing.

We have been so poor, it just makes sense.

Sir Gareth???

And has anyone actually found the HR feed on iPlayer. They bang on about it on the BBC all day yet no one can find it!

Love me some Saka, Starboy is da bomb.

Yeah, I'm beginning to think the same!

A bit like Chelsea winning the Champions League in 2012 even though they were totally hopeless.

Yeah, I did notice John Terry lurking in the Switzerland game in a full England kit, LOL!

I fancy France for later, which goes against the pundits.

I would probably go for Spain if I was a betting man.

So you are probably right with France as I am nearly always wrong!

Good to see Luke Shaw (left footed full back) in the squad.
Now England can "pass the Dutchies from the left hand side"
Ba Dum Tss!

Let's see what happens here then.... Holland England. Semis.

Let the stress begin.

Half time. Definitely better than normal, Foden might even score!

Good game that. I reckon the penalty decision was wrong but they deserved the win.

It was a bit brutal, the ref was a bit ott. Giving cards out like it was Christmas.

Well who would have thought it.

Utter joke of a penalty but I remember all the times we were robbed previously.

Foden had a magic 20 minutes or so.

Seeing a real "team" thing going on here.

Spain will be a challenge but we seem relaxed.

Got the call on France badly wrong moody sods.

Spain should have too much for the Ingurlish, but they do seem to know how to grind out a result.

The wisest thing I have ever read on this forum.

C'mon España!!!

Vamos!

Well done to spain.. Unreal. Well deserved.

Spain the better team and deserved it. England played too defensively and got punished.

Roll on the World Cup…

Yeah we didn't really give our best in the final.

I think we have run our course with Southgate, but he leaves us in a lot better shape than when he found us.

Nice to see Palmer doing what I see every teenager doing on the park outside my house.

Oh well.

I think tacticly the way to get Spain is to keep men back. Hope to get lucky at the top. As soon as they get contact they're off up field faster than anything. They don't dribble the ball up they chase it upfield. Full sprint off an upfield pass. By the time our guys turned around they're crossing the box

We just don't have that excellence. Dordle about.

We had like 5 attempts to spain 20...

Aye, he done better for England than he did Middlesbrough.

Seems to be an ongoing thing that. Every England manager has done a stint at Middlesbrough in the past 2 decades.
