Euro 2020

[Lupo]

Yep. Also this thing that they all call him Jack like he's the cheeky young scamp down the road that they all know

 

[WolfMan]

Being the most fouled player isn't a necessarily a good thing anyway IMO. Saw Souness saying a while ago that it's a negative against Grealish that he gets fouled so much, because the truly great players are adept at finding space and being elusive so even if you want to foul them, you just can't get near them.

 

[James]

I wonder if the BBC realise Hungary are playing France

Scotland hype from last night is getting a bit silly now. You'd think they'd turned England over 2-0

Yeah not quite sure what's worse really. Our performance or the OTT shit after a 0-0.
Very much the feel of Exeter getting a replay v Man Utd in the FA Cup.
I suppose if they fail to progress they can still have an open top bus tour of Edinburgh to show their Didn't Lose v England Trophy.

I don't begrudge the fans so much, but the media hype is nonsense. Gilmour is suddenly a 'colossus'. Played well, but... really??

Tbf they overreact to every England result in a tournament too

 

[sycophantia]

Scottish levels of finishing by France so far.......but you'd expect its just a matter of time

 

[Dire Wolf]

You'd have to search pretty long and hard to find 2 European players better than Griezman and Mbappe.

 

[Dire Wolf]

1-0 Hungary. Neat goal.

 

[Jack Regan]

Well didn't see that coming.

 

[sycophantia]

Bloody hell

 

[Kenny]

Bloody hell

Feel for the woman sat at that desk!!

 

[Jack Regan]

Feel for the woman sat at that desk!!

Yep scared her half to death.

 

[Jack Regan]

Hungary deservedly hold on for a point. Gargantuan effort, but the French were poor all things considered.

 

[EdgeOfTheAlps]

Am I right in thinking if Hungary had won, and Portugal beat Germany, the germans would have been out?

 

[Jack Regan]

Am I right in thinking if Hungary had won, and Portugal beat Germany, the germans would have been out?

I believe it would go to head to head for third if Germany then beat Hungary in the final game. Which would then mean Germany finish third.

 

[Tony Towner]

Am I right in thinking if Hungary had won, and Portugal beat Germany, the germans would have been out?

No because the Germans could still beat Hungary and therefore could still finish above them on head to head, 3 points could still get you in the last 16 if results in the other groups go their way

 

[EdgeOfTheAlps]

You have to struggle not to make the last 16 then. Think Hungary could get something in their last game if they're not out on their feet

 

[Jack Regan]

Rui gets away with another near post clanger.

 

[Kenny]

That's not a clanger at all. Brilliant ball in and great finish. This whole never get beaten on your near post stuff is bollocks*. Not a chance he is saving that from the position he was in for the cross and the lad in the middle (Gnabry?) is taking the attention, so he is still moving as the shot is twatted in.

*sometimes. The one he let in v Hungary was shit.
