poland deserve a kick up the arse for lack of ambition since they went one up.

Oh look half time is England time on the BBC. Does this happen in other countries during matches their team isn't playing?
Yep, I think pretty much every country in the world talks about England at half-time.

Still wanna see a replay of the thru ball that led to the pen to see if it was offside.
― pandemic, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:32 (eleven years ago) link
textbook facepalm from greek coach after that pen
― jabba hands, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:33 (eleven years ago) link
Now offside. Not sure about that

on replay correct
This is some pretty clownish football.

― pandemic, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:35 (eleven years ago) link
it's v entertaining. the greek keeper's flesh-coloured strip is a bit offputting though, i keep thinking he's a streaker.
― jabba hands, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:36 (eleven years ago) link
Usually one expects the momentum to pass from one side to the other but both teams look like they're psyching themsleves out in equal measure.

Danny Mills on BBC Radio 5 live:"Wojciech Szczesny has had an absolute nightmare. He's had nothing to do, but his concentration has deserted him. What was he trying to achieve with that? He should have gone with his hands. The referee had no option but to give a penalty and send the goalkeeper off. Szczesny has had two things to do and he's done both badly.

just checked the potential offside for the pen and it's really hard to tell (from the match angle anyway)
― Number None, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:36 (eleven years ago) link
lovely pass there

weird mixture of olde style blood&thunder and desultory ineptitude about this match

Mark Bright "Russia and Czech Rep watching this with their feet up in a hotel somewhere." They kick off in an hour Mark, if they're still at the hotel chilling they're in trouble.

Greece did well after half-time but Poland bottled that.
― pandemic, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:53 (eleven years ago) link
They'll not be in too much trouble judging by that game xps
― Ismael Klata, Friday, 8 June 2012 17:55 (eleven years ago) link
Amazing the way Poland totally switched off right from the start of the second half, polar opposite of the way they started the first. Worst team talk ever.
― You can do it Sun Myung Moon (NickB), Friday, 8 June 2012 17:58 (eleven years ago) link
It's a pity that ended even, from what I saw it's practically an invitation for Russia and the Czechs to go through the motions tonight and take their chances in the other two games.
― Ismael Klata, Friday, 8 June 2012 18:11 (eleven years ago) link
I'd wait to see how bad the Czech Republic are before writing off the other two, tbh.

who does the second placer in this group play cos that might be an incentive to win
― Zaireeka Badu (NickB), Friday, 8 June 2012 18:14 (eleven years ago) link
Were Czech Rep in the same qualifying group as Scotland? If so I remember them being poor. Russia should be exciting Euro 2008 style.
