2024 UEFA European Football Championship

It obviously means nothing coming from an Englisman but Scotland look really poor.

Not expecting them to Swan around like 2008/12 Spain but expect them to be organised, hard working and get the basics right.

In respect of faking head injuries, it would take moments for it to be reviewed on screen and a yellow card could be issued for simulation, same as it is for diving (rarely admittedly)

It would soon stop the cheating, or at least make them think twice, if it can be easily proven that there was no head contact whatsoever.

I find it quite pathetic that players trivialise what could be a serious injury just to gain an advantage, but that’s always been the mindset of a lot of players (cheat to win) and it just seems even more prevalent now.

Slovenia vs Serbia finishes 1-1, Serb equalizer in late ET.

Another great game! Pockets of boredom, but mostly lots of good football and loads of chances. Why do I think Eng v Den will be another snooze-fest...

Quite likely - I'm @ T20 cricket this evening so not sure how much (or any) of the game I'll see.

There have been 16 games played so far (As of Slovenia vs Serbia), and 6 goals have been scored in added-on time!

Seems like a high percentage of last-minute goals.

It makes it great for watching neutral games!

Should've cut that back for Saka.

Very fortuitous (as it was in the first match) but I'll take it.

[Heathwood]

My god this pitch is poor. It’s going to be absolutely ruined by the end of the game.

[TownIdiot]

as good as that goal was England are a very frustrating side to watch

Here's hoping that's the case!

[Essarell]

Spain really want this one….. I wonder if the “tired” England players are watching?

[Get Karter]

Spain look very strong here. Skilful and physical..

[Another project]

Spain are all over the Italians. I'll be happy if Italy take a point from this game

[Baron Greenback]

Can't work out if acting or just a vicious game or probably both. Not pretty football/aim for ribs ball.

Brilliant, isn't it? Can't make my mind up as to whether I prefer the Italian one or the Scottish one.

I always think of Schumacher wherever I hear it, on the podium, conducting an imaginary band! Funny, even Italians do the 'da di da di dah... bit in the middle now!

Have heard the Scottish one at a couple of international rugby matches. It really is a spine tingler. As is the Welsh one.

Best national anthem in the world!

Proper gets your hairs on your back up.



Always reminds me of when Ferrari win in F1.

The current England team need this kind of passion that is sadly missing:
