Euros 2024... It isn't going home... Unless home is Paris

Another classic England performance. Early goal, sit back and do fuck all and lucky to get away with a draw.

Why southgate insists on playing TAA in midfield (he has now played there more for england than he does for his club) is baffling.

Need to improve to get past Slovakia on wednesday morning.

this sums it up scarily well

It may as well be a camera on my house, every single game.

I giggled like a schoolgirl at that. I love it.

Looks like you haven’t seen their game against Georgia. Strongly recommend it if you like end to end action.

Oh and maybe take a look at the crowd too, 3 stands filled with 2.9mil of their fans :wink:

Yeah, but that was mostly Fernando Couto and Jorge Costa.

If that slip and miss from France (13th minute) happened here it would be all over twitter with hashtag peak A-League.

Some of the worst shooting you’ll see in this one.

And again

Giroud coming on. Finally someone who knows where the net is. I bet he scores.

Am I the only one that hates that offside call? Possibly the correct decision according to the letter of the law but the French keeper is never saving that, whether the Dutch player is standing there or not.

I get why the Dutch goal was ruled offside but the keeper is absolutely rooted to the spot and wasn’t going to even try and dive

I haven’t seen a replay but I’ll always come down on the side of there being no such thing as passive offside. If you’re in the keepers cone of vision you’re offside. Don’t want to be offside? Don’t be offside.

He wasn’t in his eye line, he was to his side…. The issue they ruled was he impeded the dive to the left.

The fact he hadn’t moved seemed to be ignored

Not that it matters in the end, Poland are going home anyway, but I though Szczesny was hard done for Austria’s 3rd. 1 on 1 with Sabitzer, the ball is moving away from goal on Sabitzers weak foot. Szczesny dives for the save and cops a kicking for his troubles.

Thought the same.

I found this video of Mbappe way funnier than I should have:

EDIT: and yes, as an England fan I know I am tempting fate with this.
