Not sure England will have a better chance of winning it all. Denmark are definitely a good side that could worry England, but even then England should on paper win with no problems. In the final you could play two teams that have a lot of history and good players, but Spain is in the midst of a generation change while Italy are imo a bit overrated. Add the fact you'll be playing at Wembley...

England has so much more talent than this Ukraine side. This is what I was talking about. If they just bothered attacking they'd be up by 5 by now. Fantastic squad England has, so many great technical un-English players in Mount, Sancho, Foden and Grealish.

The disparity in talent is ridiculous between both teams. England should just put this game away. It's giving me anxiety watching them give Ukraine chances to attack.

Why are England inviting this Ukraine side into the game? Just keep attacking and they won't support the pressure. This falling back and being cautious against a team like Ukraine is ridiculous.

Disagree about this Italian side. Their streak and football is overblown. In their 30 non-losing streak they hadn't beat anyone of notice until the win today and a win which was really down to mentality over quality imo. They played well for 30 minutes cause they were allowed to, but damn, felt Belgium had some pretty decent chances. I mean, yes they've probably played the best football in this Euro's, but thought they could've easily lost tonight as well. Think England will do them and football will be coming home. Or at least I hope so for this forum that has suffered so much with this terrible team. Also, never watch Milan, but Donnarumma is some player. Very impressed by him during this World Cup. Had two or three fantastic saves tonight and in the air he's a beast. So composed. Can't believe he's only 22.

Well, he doesn't fly into a tackle. He actually kicks the ball from below and his studs get stuck accidently on to the meeting player. If we're going by the principle of how bad it looks, then the knee to Marcus Berg head should also result in a red. At this point football is just turning stupid. If Danielson went wreckless into a challenge with his studs up and then hits the player, then yes. But here he kicks the ball away, studs not showing until after the swinging motion.

Wow. I'm sorry. Football has gone to shit. Never a red card. What is he supposed to do? Cut his leg after kicking the ball?

No way England don't go and win this now. amirite?

That bench is more exciting than the starting XI.

He does it pretty well for the national team tbf.

Neymar's bitch. Neymar without the injuries is three times the player this speedy gonzalez lad is.

Fair enough. Thought the new rule stated if it hits the ref and there is a possession change. I mean, I can get a free pass for missing a rule like that, but it's ridiculous if a referee like Pitana who refereed the last World Cup final has missed it

It's completely legal isn't it? Ball didn't change team possession or ended up in goal. Neymar hit a cross and it hit the ref but the ball ended with a Brazilian player? Or have they changed the laws again?

A central midfield of Danilo Pereira and William Carvalho is quite average tbf to Portugal.

The guy is huge.

I mean it's asolutely fucking idiotic to have it in Brazil, but Argentina has almost twice as many COVID cases per capita at the moment tbf as well as less vaccinated and when they made the decision Argentina was running into a wall. Glad it has reversed and the cases are falling there again.

Doesn't play.

For me Grealish and Chillwell have to start in that team. I don't know. Feel like Southgate should've just gone all in: Declan behind a midfield four of Foden, Mount, Grealish, Sancho and Kane up top. Football is supposed to be fun.

Russia looking like Turkey, completely useless.

Will be interesting to follow Italy. For a national team of the stature of Italy I can barely recognize half the players.

I've only seen them play twice, but he's an absolute beast Hoping for Napoli to score now. Imagine PSG not winning the league and Juventus missing out on the CL. Would be a great weekend for football after Atletico won it yesterday.

Should've had one in the first half so probably fair they got that one. But how Mike Dean has made two poor decisions like that is ridiculous.

It's extremely offending and I think Disco should be permanently banned from this forum.

Sad to see the state of Hazard. Done as a footballer.

The Tuchel effect. They're solid as fuck though Can see them beating Man City despite being inferior. Thiago Silva
