So there have been surprises and another one tonight where the favourites Sweden went out.
We have three teams, Czech Republic, Switzerland and the Ukraine who all finished third in their groups through to the next round.
England will be favourites to win this game, but it will be played in hot conditions even in the evening in Rome and we don’t want to underestimate the Ukraine.
So many favourites have have caught a ‘cold’ so far, which is good for the game of football, after beating Germany and everyone on a high, we don’t want to be the next casualty.
And why not. It wouldn't be the first time they've won it when they maybe wouldn't have been there in the first place!"We have three teams, Czech Republic, Switzerland and the Ukraine who all finished third in their groups through to the next round".
The Danes lost two games out of 3 and still got through, now they think they can win it.
Dangerous talk that is ! No wonder we never won anything under his leadership.See the Sven twattin Eriksen Nerd being interviewed s'mornin...says England will easily beat Ukraine....wtf does he know...the quirky prat couldn't even get Notts County out of sh*t !
Strange physique, but technically gifted.Shaqiri, horrible little player with Stoke.
Absolutely this ! They were successful with their 90 minutes of Tiki Taka b*llocks and hoping for the one goal to win the game. Other nations and clubs(!) saw this and jumped on the bandwagon. It was an anti service to football IMO, they have a lot to answer for. Now the world is saturated with teams practicing rondos and having 80+ percent possession and two shots on target the whole game. A kick in the nuts for engaging and exciting football IMO.All about opinions, Spain play plenty of passes, but I have found them a boring side to watch.
That hasn’t aged well although it was funny at the timeHe's just a sh1t Ryan Fraser!
Indeed but very niggly constantly on the ref’s case.Strange physique, but technically gifted.
