Euro 2020[1]

[Leonormous Boozer]

Mentally preparing myself for the worst dude

Never a red that.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

And Spain are through on pens.

 

[Reiser99]

Shame for Switzerland, but those last three penalties were awful. Pressure huh.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Yeh shame. Italy v Belgium should be better. I am going for Belgium.

 

[Reiser99]

God I hate the theatrics.

 

[Reiser99]

Awful defending by Belgium.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Did they just use the injured player on the floor as a decoy?

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Serious feet from Barella though. Not over yet, KDB and Lukaku are a goal threat v anyone.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

What a goal. Forza Italia.

 

[Reiser99]

Great goal, but again the defending isn't good enough, just standing off him instead of closing him down. Belgium giving the Italians so much space in front of the penalty box.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Pen Belgium. De Bruyne?

2-1 game on.

 

[Reiser99]

Silly penalty to give away, don't think the belgium player was going to do much from there, but you never know.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Yeah, Italy in total control and turned a half chance into a guaranteed one with a clumsy foul.

 

[General Melchett]

As a club manager Martinez was never known for keeping things tight at the back which is exactly the platform that is needed to win a major tournament like this. Hopefully that Lukaku penalty will give Belgium the impetus to make a game of it in the second half.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Yep defence wins tournaments.

 

[General Melchett]

Yep defence wins tournaments.

You can see that Southgate gets it.

 

[Reiser99]

Italy definitely getting the rub of the green on the ****ly stuff. Great at milking a foul and better at hiding them too.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Italy look like favourites to get to the final unless Spain can find a striker before the semi for all their possession. Morata is ****.

And so England tonight:

 

[Yulia]

Come on, Ukraine. You can do it

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Kane!
