Doesn't suit NI 🙁
Not a total shocker to see them play out a 0-0 as its fine for them both
Given this guys reaction at 1-1, I hate to think how he ended up after the winner went in 😀
Continuing the tradition of making terrible predictions:
[b]Italy[/b] v Sweden
Czech Republic v [b]Croatia[/b]
[b]Spain[/b] v Turkey
As usual, I never ever predict draws 😀
On a side note, while the unpredictability makes me poorer, it certainly makes the tournament richer. Great to see the so called 'smaller nations' going out swinging.
Everyone very happy (with sore heads) here in Norn Iron. After a poor opener we played well as a team, just like in qualification. Better than the some of our parts and all that.
Good to see England, Wales and Norn Iron have all at least won a match. Time to cross fingers that we can all get through the group stages.
Italy v Sweden
Czech Republic v Croatia
Spain v Turkey
You're not exactly going out on a limb Bongo! 😉
As with the game last night it's going to be more difficult to predict the final group games, as a lot of teams will be set up to avoid losing, rather than going out to win. Bit like us really....will Woy select a team that will hit on the break rather than start on the front foot v Slovakia

Agreed and hopefully joined by the Republic

I know. As every other time I have gone out on a limb, it's got torn off 🙁

Yes, really hope they can get a win against Belgium. They really deserved one against Sweden....just hope it doesn't come down to the Italy match.
If Zlatan turns up, then Sweden will win.
Otherwise, bore-score-draw.
I imagine the quality of the laydeeeees in the crowd is of a particularly high standard in this clash of nations .
Indeed.
I was just thinking there really hasn't been enough pervy cameramen in this tournament. Brasil WC was 50% football and 50% ladies in the crowd.
Its been cool to see the players wives with the kids at the stadiums.
Zzzzzzzzzz

Just watching a bit of Italy v Sweden and Fat Zlat is merely wandering around the centre circle!
Arse!!! Had a few quid on that being a nil nil draw! 😥
Likewise.
What is it with this tournament and late goals?
I've never seen my father in law so angry. Haha! Unlucky Sweden , thought that was a penalty on first sight
Unlucky Sweden
Not really. They've not had a shot on target in two games.
Zlatan and Ronaldo will probably go out for a drink tonight and moan about being gods among men.
What a miss by Zlatan 😳 😆
Which is an interesting point which of the big stars has turned up or failed to deliver?
Off the top of my head Payet and Bale definitely have turned up. Ronaldo, Zlatan, Kane so far at least less so.
Can't disagree with Bale based on stats, 2 games, 2 goals, both spectacular free kicks.....
But in general play he was either very well marshalled or just disappointing yesterday. I didn't really feel whenever he got the ball 'Uh oh.....' apart from when he was lining up the FK.
And i want more from the multimillion pound players than just a dead ball routine.
1 man teams will only go so far, they need some sort of back up.
I don't think anyone would have begrudged Sweden for getting a 0-0 draw ,
When did Clattenberg join the priesthood??
I don't think anyone would have begrudged Sweden for getting a 0-0 draw ,
With £50 coming for that outcome, no, no I wouldn't have 😀
Croatia going to get kicked out.
Scenes. [url= https://streamable.com/rmsf ]Thought that guy got blown up.[/url]
No police at all? Anywhere?
Ffs what is so difficult about stopping these people from bringing flares into the grounds? Thought one of the stewards was hit too.
What a crazy 10 minutes.
As much of a Spurs fan as I am there is one name here which doesn't belong just yet in a list of greats
Ronaldo, Zlatan, Kane
What a game this is -
Did it look like the Croatian players were trying to stop the fans? They were certainly down that end?
Also was it the fans having a go at whoever chucked the flare on that caused trouble to flare up (I'll get my coat...)
Yeah. Were trying to calm shit down. Funny thing is those dickheads have lost their team 2 points, as that break in play 100% messed with the Croatian players' heads.
Dear oh dear....what was all that about! And they were winning FFS! 😯
Here we go - will Spain keep me awake...
Spain? To keep you awake? With their death by a thousand inconsequential passes?
Will need some more flares to wake me up.
C'mon Turkey! I'm bored with Spain, now.
Busquets. Such a ****.
C'mon, Turkey!
Sorry dozed off there...
Have Spain done anything exciting?
No idea. Was sleeping like a baby.
Only woke as I head Clive Tyldesley telling Tony Pulis about a dramatic semi.
Tony Pulis has been to the Michael Owen school of excitement.
No upset here tonight
I guess that's my Turkey/Spain HT/FT bet gone then.
Are McDonald's trolling De Gea. Behind his goal it's scrolling "Player Escorts .... I'm loving it." 😆
