But for me, it’s still my favourite strip of all time. Remember seeing them in colour for the first time and fell for it.

Yea Peru are definitely a contender for the diagonal striped shirts but I still think Vince Hilaire rocked a better sash Ian Paisley.
That Peru team: 'you'll never win anything with kids' (though they did manage to beat Scotland if I remember rightly?)
know they had a good last game but they bore me stupid*.
I have always struggled to enjoy watching Spain. I appreciate that they have elevated an art form to a semi religious experience but it doesn't do anything for me. Like Germany, if they are even 1% off, it is just painful.
QPR have had some kits vaguely reminiscent of Portugal's, haven't they? I seem to recall an interesting green and gold version.
Man City 78 away (they've had a few recent kits like it too)
Oops
Well that was embarrassing. Not sure which is the worst, the keeper, Koke getting a hand check in the chest and going down screaming and holding his face or Cuneyt buying all the acting. Hopefully now that it's tied Spain will quit the acting and try playing football.
A right bore-fest this one. 😂
This is absolutely bonkers!!
Gooooaaalll!
Do they still do the golden goal thing?

I was about to ask you if you were still watching. Spain had me about to walk away at about the 73 minute mark. Just couldn't take any more of them. Then Croatia started playing in the midfield, showing a bit of composure on the ball so I stuck around.

Nope. Back to old school ET and penalties.
This is becoming a tournament of poor first half's and great second half's.

Who knew? In the knock out phase, desperate teams play, er, desperately making for exciting finishes.
Light brown but only because the freestyle grammar adds a freson of je ne sais quoi.
Dammit!
Another dammit! ...
Two shocking bits of defending by the Croatian No.7.
Is Luis Enrique wearing jeggings?

Pep cast offs. Much like his teams

Spanish or French, you can't have both. 🙂

So desperately trying not to be beige, I'll try anything. Although what my spell checker has against frisson, I don't know.
I like the warm up T-shirts, class.

That's Brakalo I think. He's a forward. They put him in when they were chasing the game. A gamble but it paid off initially. Live by the sword, die by the sword.
Can’t see past a win for LesCheatsBleus in this one.

Setting up an epic semi match up of who will dive most effectively.
Looks like the French are going with 3 at the back, changing the habit of a lifetime for the manager. I doubt that's about the Swiss. I suspect it's about the next game.
Although they probably aren't happy with the attacking play. Maybe they hope packing the middle will open up room for Mbappe.
Well with 10 minutes to go I popped out for a quick ride. Hope I didn't miss much.
Hope I didn’t miss much.
Morata fell down a few times. The Croatian's misplayed some passes. Pretty much the 60th minute all over again. Except they subbed off Modric.
So no, not really.
is anyone else struggling to get the itv hub to work, need to do a few things on the pc while watching and its stuck at just over 3 minutes, refreshing it starts a few seconds before that and gets stuck at the same point.
Set match of the day for tonight. When I went out Spain were 2 up and coasting.

Yep - getting fed of Ally McCoist now!
just seen the thread down the page about how bad itv hub is, bet it works if i try the free trial of the paid version. not that i'm going to bother.
its just decided to work, just missed nearly all the first halve.
Yup, in a world of middling pundits, Ally McCoist makes them look incisive.

Oh, THAT 10 minutes at the end. In that case Morata fell down a few times, Croatia misplayed a few passes, nothing at all happened with Modric and you didn't miss anything at all.

£10 if you say that to his face. You may have to explain incisive though.
French look off it. Tactical change at half time?

I think they have to go back to a back four, even if they play a right fullback on the left. Digne isn't fit I guess Hernandez isn't either but the back 3 isn't working. They don't know who is going to ball, who is going to what space. Attacking teams always do better with a back 4. I think they seriously underestimated Switzerland's ability to hold the ball. Longelet has to come off, he's lost.
That might swing the match in France's favour
Oh la la
That's it. France will run amok now. 3-1 at least.
Has Caher nipped out again?
Someone nail his feet to the floor for the match tomorrow.
Will the real Paul Pogba please stand up, please stand up.....
Kudos to today's teams for providing some drama in advance of the inevitable bore-fest tomorrow afternoon.

Sneaky. Don't worry, I think Edukator screen shots everything so he can denounce the stealth edits
