European Finals.

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Spain could easily be 10-0 up here. As bad as Slovakia have been, this is impressive.
Certainly is. Never stopped moving, made the ball do the work and totally dominated Slovakia. Felt sorry for Lewandowski in the other game. Scored two and lost and they are out of the tournament. Such is the price of losing.

Absolute classic from Jenas there: "anywhere else on the pitch that's a foul".

Well, no shit, JJ.

A lot left to play but it feels like Hungary have done a number on Germany here, punishing their adventurous wingbacks, shackling and getting behind them defensively. Obviously Germany are having chances but they aren't a patch on the 96 side.

Sane with a corner that had me saying 'I could do that', and not in a good way.

Jermaine Jenas is a goal away from absent-mindedly shouting 'Jessica Ennis' into the microphone.

I think from what I’ve seen overall - we’ve a better chance against them than France. Portugal are a much better side than I expected too and if we lose I’d rather it not be to a gurning Ronaldo.

What we see now is who can make themselves heroes. England will have to raise their game massively as Jeans points out the problem we have is Germany are now match sharp yet we haven’t really been properly tested yet.

Starve their wingbacks and they are fecked. Hummels and Rudiger on an island. We are going to do to them what they did to Brazil in the world cup.

It's coming home. Good grief.
