June 22, 20169 yr I can see the Italy vs Spain game going to penalties :drama: at least we lose one of the big countries very early.
June 22, 20169 yr Euro 2016 will still go down no matter what happens as the best tournament for the Four Nations bar England. Don't give up just yet! ~~ am I the only one that doesn't particularly rate France? I'm not too sure they'll beat us or even beat the Republic of Ireland or Iceland.
June 22, 20169 yr Thank God that the group stage is over now, the tournament will really come alive now! Croatia vs Portugal Wales Vs Northern Ireland Spain vs Italy These above matches in particular will be really fun to watch in the Round of 16, I can see the Croatia vs Portugal being full of goals, Wales vs Northern Ireland will have the flow and tempo of a Premier League match and Spain vs Italy is on paper the tie of the round. We're most likely gonna get a Germany/Italy/Spain vs France semi final and a Croatia/Portugal vs Belgium/Wales/Northern Ireland semi on the other side of the draw. And of course we will get the obligatory penalty shootout along the way.

June 23, 20169 yr Wonderful night for Ireland - brillant to see Robbie crying when he scored - would a premier league player react like that - doubtful and the reason why imo international football is still the best type of football.
June 23, 20169 yr http://i.imgur.com/DpS8VzAl.jpg I reckon Croatia look good for the semi-finals at least. They've impressed me the most so far.
June 23, 20169 yr If England beat Iceland could be meeting Hungary or Belgium in the last eight, if England go any further could be meeting France or Germany in the semis
June 23, 20169 yr If England beat Iceland could be meeting Hungary or Belgium in the last eight, if England go any further could be meeting France or Germany in the semis If we beat Iceland we will play France or Republic Of Ireland. Then a semi against Germany/Slovakia/Spain/Italy.
June 23, 20169 yr It's crazy how much blame Hodgson needs to take. We had one of the best opportunities in generations to get a really favorable draw and have a brilliant chance of making the semi-finals. He needs to go. He doesn't know his best team, or the best system to use. It's a major crime and I blame the pressure from fans/media as one of the criteria. We're going to be lucky to get past the QFs. Belgium/Croatia/Poland have a great chance of reaching the final now. Glad England avoided a game against Norther Ireland. For what it is worth, I am expecting a 0-0 affair, with Wales winning on penalties.
June 24, 20169 yr Looking forward to the knockout stages beginning this weekend! Wales vs Northern Ireland & Croatia vs Portugal will be entertaining to watch and at least one of them could go to extra time I think.
June 25, 20169 yr Talk about back to back football if Wales and N. Ireland draw. I just had to reset my TV, as it goes off every 4 hours on its own :lol:
June 25, 20169 yr Wales vs Northern Ireland is looking like it will go to a penalty shootout. That goal from Shaqiri was amazing! It's a shame for him that his team ended up losing on penalties. Croatia vs Portugal should be a decent match full of goals I think. Hopefully it will be like that anyway.
June 25, 20169 yr Not watching this game but will be watching the Croatia game. looking forward to it.
June 25, 20169 yr Kudos to Stephen Williams for staying on with that injury, but should have been taken off since they were leading in case he had another knock. A great win for Wales though, not their best game, hopefully they get Hungary in the next round.
June 25, 20169 yr Over the moon to see Wales go to the final 8. Who'd have thought that before the tournament? Tough luck Northern Ireland. It would have been amazing to see them through.
June 25, 20169 yr Author A damp squib so far between Croatia and Portugal. Shaquiri's goal is up there for goal of the tournament.
June 25, 20169 yr Author And still we haven't had a shot on target in the Croatia v Portugal game...... Could be the first game since Holland v Argentina 2014 World Cup Semi-Final that I fall asleep to unless something happens.
