that was dreamlike. Brazil / Germany-esque in terms of utter onesidedness btwn two ostensibly non-mismatched international sides
had the England game on pal's laptop, literally every time I got a glance of it it was a futile England corner on the right

it's almost as if roy hodgson is a clueless bumbling yes-man who is so good at lowering expectations that it's made him the longest serving english boss in the modern era.
really strange how nobody can gaf about wanting to sack the england manager anymore - it's like the job is an old abandoned shed and the fa are delighted to let hodgson give it a half-arsed lick of paint once a year.

Nowt wrong with an expectation lowering qualification. ENG's best 14 is as clear as Leicester's so I don't think Roy'll rather about from here on.

Looking at permutations, I reckon Wales get Czech Republic next and England probably Iceland/Hungary as much as I'd love to see the look on Ronaldo's face as England put two or three past Portugal.
― groovypanda, Tuesday, 21 June 2016 09:17 (eight years ago) link
Yeah,I suspect that England will get Iceland. So expect the Slovakia game again, but against a side with a much better chance of nicking a goal.

Although if Portugal and Iceland both win 1-0 then it would be Portugal.

'Some disturbing news ...
Reports are circulating that Croatian fans are planning further disturbances during tonight’s match, including an attack on referee Bjorn Kuipers in the 30th minute.
“We have information that the same people that caused trouble in St. Etienne will try the same, and even try to attack the referee in 30th minute of the match,” said Nikola Kajkic, president of the Croatian Police Union.'

kalinic is rightly going to obtain the patronage of a hoy hoy as THE NEXT ZLATAN sometime next season after a backheel thru the legs of kieran gibbs, followed by a £16m january move to juventus and a bidone d'oro

Srna didn't concede it.
He clearly knew where Ramos was going to hit it somehow and told the keeper.

Croatia deserved that solely because of their great anthem.
