The finish on Brazil's 3rd was superb, as was Messi's 3rd.
Looking forward to seeing Spain Italy later as well as supporting Rep Ireland tonight.
Why the flip are they talking about engurland in the build up to Spain v Italy?
Can't wait until tomorrow. 🙄

Looking forward to the Italy Spain game, nothing else has really interested me so far. I think Silva will play as striker.
OK, as they just put the formation up, I guess he won't 😳
😆
Pretty handy that Casillas. 😯
never thought i'd be saying this but spain are boring me to death here.
like watching arsenal try and walk it into the net.
forza italia
6 midfielders against 9 defenders is never going to blow your socks off, is it?
Tiqui-taca.
Tiqui-taca
i seem to remember it having a purpose.
it's ok playing 6 midfielders when one of them is messi.
get torres or llorente on

😐
Strikers are on the bench, aren't they?
good old itv, missing the start of the 2nd half... 🙄

It is very effective but really dull
Nothing will go right for Torres
Spain started without a striker. Looks like they're finishing without one too. What a donkey!! £50 million? I'd give him his bus fare home 🙂
I'd give him his bus fare home
He'd miss it. 😐
TBH I find barcelona the same, and I think their opponents do too sometimes and then just get bored and lose shape
and pocket the money
Come on ireland!!!!!! They could top the group here! 😀
😆 at don Simon!
bringing the striker on did open italy up a little though. torres might not have taken them but he still had chances.
i'd like to see llorente start the next one.

When do the Scotch play their first game by the way??

Made me laugh, though I feel honor bound to point out that Igor is not a typical Polish name!
I too was slightly disappointed with Spain, totally agree with tm about the arsenal comparison.
Come on Ireland 🙂
C'mon the green machine!!
I hope Ireland do well, but I don't want to see that little arrow slinging ****head score. I would like to see Eduardo score though, hmmmm.
Doh!
Oops! 🙁
lol! Hope England start better than this. Still 90mins to reply.
Given should have got that.
Nice that itv are sponsored by poweraid and mcdonalds for a bit of sport eh?
Can't see the Paddy's getting a point from this group... Early trip home I reckon.
Irish fans seem rather happy 😀
Come on the lads
Gutter just before half time!!
😥
I would love them to do well
A bit more of quality game than the Spanish one...
Bye bye Ireland 😆
Follow the Jellavich road 😀

This is what I love about football.
The puns?
Aren't puns supposed to be funny? 😐
spain was boring, ireland disappointing
Croatia could ruffle a few feathers, I quite fancy them against the Italians, not so sure against the Spanish, but it should be a good game, 2 teams playing the game the way it should be played.
cant bring myself to make a prediction for todays match, half tempted to stick a tenner on a french win just to ease the pain.
England Expects (england expects a 50% chance of disappointment)
England to win 1-0 me thinks
I can't see us getting anything out of tonight's game. A draw would be the best we can hope for, I reckon. And even that's unlikely
It'll be interesting to see how the other game finishes though, to see what kind of form they're both on. As that's where we'll need to pick up points.
Oh... and another vote for Spain being incredibly tedious to watch. All those endless little triangles didn't often seem to bother the Italian defense much

+1
Just hope that rain holds off in Paris - Nadal vs Djoc far more appealing than English football.
