Absolute joke of a penalty for France.

Var was doing good job until this. Just small shoulder to shoulder.
Every time I see Mbappe he just relies on his speed, dont see that elite attacker that so many say he is.

Cue the obligatory 1914-18/ 1939-45/ 1966 references for the next 6 days.

Oh what joy.

Two world wars and one world cup!

Do one you!!!!!

Hey at least those references are somewhat recent, our media was referencing a battle with Sweden from 1620.

Be a shame when the 'host' Nation goes out Tuesday in the style of a Mexico hosting a tournament.

To call this tournament format idiotic is an understatement of the century. I think this calculation includes the travel for the 1/16 game because Spain played all of their games in Seville, while everybody else in the group had to travel 3000 miles to Petersburg and back.

Thanks, Platini.

I have them in the final looking at that half of the draw. Not that this is a great German side. But its the Germans. And they live for knock-out tournament football.

The seedings are mad. Completely lopsided bracket.

Germany vs England with Southgate in charge. What could go wrong ……..

 

[Tyton]

Never write off Germans and the Italians, that's my motto.

[woolly]

I fancy the Italians personally, however, other than them the rest of the qualifiers are as much as a muchness Spain lack something to truly stand out, Germany aren't the force they were, France blow hot or cold, Netherlands play a good game but are open to make mistakes, of the rest the dark horses imho are Denmark they have a real reason to do well after what happened whether it is enough to get them to the final is debateable however.

Italy for me
