    N1....They *.

    Don't think they are that good at all anyways to get anywhere near the final.

    Germans have been ok,nothing special but the Germans always seem to make it to final.

    Prickford isn’t a particularly good goalie.

    For me its a stone cold penalty, he comes out & misses the ball. The ball is headed off the attackers shoulder & then makes contact with the keeper. The keeper is reckless & deserves the penalty & yellow. The keeper is no different from any other player on the pitch & has to be responsible for his actions.

    There is a good chance of a France-Italy semi-final.

    Its an utter shame they got that group. If they got out I could see them getting very far with the way they handled themselves. Can hold there head high though, what a fight they put up.

    It was one of the most blatant penalties I’ve seen

    I sure hope so but this is a very average German team by their standards and the whole bottom half of the draw is so much weaker then the top half so I am a bit worried I must admit.

    They did no question about it but their form coming into the Euro Finals has been decidedly average (by their standards) and that performance against Hungary was indicative of that. In particular they really are leaking goals. Hey I hope the team that played Portugal shows up but I am not overly optimistic.

    Your right, but you feel whichever team isn’t the poorest on the night will win as opposed to one dominating the other. Both teams, Portugal apart, don’t look that clever tbh.

    Germany dominated the Portugal game mainly due to Portugal starting with two defensive mids in midfield which allowed them to dominate the middle as they sat off and never changed it till it was too late. There’s a good chance England will start the same. It also helped that Goesens was up against that donkey Semedo
