22A Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 I did not enjoy listening to the continued shouting by the commentator in the Wales game as it neared the end "Get it in the corner! Get it in the corner"! Instead however the Welsh continued attach=king and scored a second goal. When England were winning 3-2 in 1966, did Ken Wolstenholme shout "Get it in the corner" at Geoff Hurst? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I think these 2 clubs are far better than the other 2 but it would be set up very nicely for the final games. Think Belgium need to bring on some subs sooner rather than later to shake things up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, definitely the best 2 sides- but all 4 teams on 3 points albeit too early to say, would make for a very interesting final round of games, especially with both kicking off at the same time. Bit surprised to see, commentators mentioned it Denmark matching up- they usually in recent years have been 4-3-3 regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2015 Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 In a weird way Denmark could still take 2nd even if they lose this game. Quite possible Belgium heavily beat Finland and Denmark beat Russia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Thought Denmark deserved more tbh a draw perhaps, a reasonable number of chances, nearly equal in possession- impressive comeback but Belgium absorbed pressure at times- Braithwaite hit bar late on. Tyldesley, no surprise to hear him sucking up to the big side, the fancied side- excellent players though they have. XG was interesting- not decisive but interesting. As for Italy v Switzerland last night, strong side for sure Italy but not quite buying into the hype. Don't necessarily agree with Keane and Neville either but Switzerland we know are a solid mid ranking European side. Italy made them look quite poor- Switzerland, are quite positive, clearly technically good, some reasonable players in other areas but post Frei, Streller, Yakin not terribly clinical. Possibly a bit defensively weaker than a few years ago too? Italy- excellent pressing, strong midfield- a midfield also missing Verratti still to return, strong defensively with an impressive GK too and good in wide areas. Will they be sufficiently clinical vs top sides, stronger contenders though, I have my doubts, plus Chiellini- aged 36 and Bonucci- 34 at CB, in a high line, positive side- that can be exposed.

AppyDAZE Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Danish player booked for a dive earlier, Netherlands player nothing, plays on and then a penalty ????? Both dived in the box. You tell me how Netherlands can go on and have a penalty? Should have been a free kick to Austria all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Austria are poor . No ideals in the final third or midfield come to that. The Dutch , if that’s what they are called these days , are streets ahead even without the likes of Gullit, Van Bastien, Van de Saar, Van Nistelroy... I like De Ligt he is a world class defender.

cidercity1987 Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Anyone else totally bored of the Euros already? There seems like such a gulf between the usual big countries and the rest. Finishing third to qualify makes a mockery of the group stage and 24 teams leading to fixtures like Ukraine v Northern Macedonia, do me a favour. Hopefully it'll liven up during the knockout stages but at this point it's a total turnoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillies Downs Leeds Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 The right wing back for the Dutch, Dumfries is going to be a serious player. Can see one of the big clubs going in for him. He is up and down the pitch non stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
