Re: EURO 2016 - European Football Championship in France 10 JUNE - 10 JULY
I concur with the above posts, a wonderful game of football, underlining the claim Belgium are an assembly of individuals rather than a team, Wales putting in the kind of team performance England can only dream about -not surprised Lukaku flopped as he is hugely over-rated but de Bruyne ought to have stepped up. The loss of experienced defenders weakened Belgium but Robson-Kanu's goal is one of the best I have seen in international football. And on this form one could see them beat Portugal, but without Aaron Ramsay I think they are weakened. But given everything else that has happened in the last 10 days anything is possible!

Re: EURO 2016 - European Football Championship in France 10 JUNE - 10 JULY
Have to say as an(ashamed)Englishman, re. football; the media(BBC)going completely OTT re. Wales win. I am not Welsh & care as much about them as any other team still left. Well done to any Welshmen out there, sure there's some on this forum?
Belgium need a new manager as the current guy is completely clueless. Why on earth Fellaini came on for 2nd half is totally beyond me! He is never an International player. Have to agree with Stavros re. Lakaku, for every goal he scores he misses a hat full! Wales fully deserved to win but let us all keep our feet on the ground. This is not tennis, calling players British because Andy Murray is a Scott. It's about 4 Nations and my Nation are out, deservedly so!
I had a feeling when Portugal scraped through that they may win the tournament though they far from deserve it.
Question; Does anyone know why the media make such a fuss over the Republic of Ireland every time they play? It's nothing to do with the UK!

I was a bit excited when i wrote that.
I agree with Stavros (Hmmm, that hurts more than I thought it would)!
The loss of Ramsay is going to hurt, but, confidence will take you a long way! And Robson-Kanu, what can you say, the cheeky fucker...I'm thinking he's got free beer for the rest of his life!

Re: EURO 2016 - European Football Championship in France 10 JUNE - 10 JULY
Portugal is not the first team to win a major tournament without having played sparkling football, and Ronaldo did not excel himself as expected, but after all the debate and discussion the simple fact is that France had three or four chances to score and failed, Portugal had I think two, and scored once. In slow motion the foul on Ronaldo looks worse as Payet was clearly not going for the ball. The overall standard of football at the tournament was good rather than outstanding, I think the best game for entertainment value and skill was Wales -v- Belgium.

I thought Germany v Italy was the best, 2 "heavy-weights" going for it. Superb viewing.
Well done Portugal.
