BobbyC81 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Awesome effort by Poland today in their final EURO 2020 match vs Sweden. Had more possession in the Sweden half for the 2nd half as they rallied from a 2-0 deficit to tie, only to lose at the end. it was also fun to see one of the team members with my last name. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritBill Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 As usual Lewandowski lacks any real support. Such a shame. The tournament starts for real on Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 What the OP feels about Poland is how I feel about the Italian national team. Being of Italian descent and having some family members still living over in Italy, I have always identified with Italy as "my team" in international football. Mancini has everyone going in the right direction, but if they play against Belgium the way they played against Austria, Italy will be out!

When Pogba hit that missile to put the French up two nobody in the building believed they would lose. Amazing comeback in the final 10 minutes by the Suisse and then perfection from the penalty spot. I’m looking forward to England-Germany today at noon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewPort71 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 A wonderful 2--0 win for England. Germany had chances, but the English keeper made some great saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBills808 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 England through on heart more than quality if we're being honest very lackluster from Germany but credit to England for getting the result have to think if Mueller scores there it's a different result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritBill Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) My son and I are just on the train home from the England v Germany game. The best atmosphere I’ve ever seen at a soccer game despite Wembley being only 50% full. Limbs everywhere for both goals.

GETTOTHE50 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I’m happy the Swedes lost (I’m a polish fan too) but since they aren’t in it, I’m pulling for Spain or Ukraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's tough He should never have been taking the 5th penalty. That's a lot of pressure. The best team on the night won the tie so no complaints. We should have pushed on once Chiesa went off but we never regained control at any point of the game from the second half kick off onwards.

Having that kid take that penalty instead of Grealish or Sterling should have gotten Southgate fired immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly even outside of the 5th spot there are issues. I think all this bloviating over the senior players being cowards or whatever is just that. Not sure why half of England wants to make excuses for a manager who clearly botched the decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
