Georgia have been decent to watch.

Much better than anything we've managed this tournament.

Does make you wonder what Prem league scouts are up to when there is so much talent dotted around available for not a lot of money compared to some of the multimillion £ donkeys they sometimes pick out.

I'm not holding my breath, but I hope they do win...

I've got them and Slovenia as my sweepstake teams!

Well done Georgia, fully deserved

To be fair to England when both teams come out on the offensive it's a completely different game, but yes they've been great.

I love Georgia so much

[cerb4.5lee]

Fantastic stuff from Georgia for sure.

Brilliant by Georgia… might need to seek out a bottle of their excellent red to celebrate.
However, from a Scottish perspective, we qualified by miles ahead of them… how far Scotland have fallen in such a short time.

All kicking off in the Turkey Czech match after the final whistle. Think every player on the pitch has been booked now during or after the match.

Hope they can get back up for the Spain game.

Great result for Georgia.

A team that looks grateful to be in the tournament and players that are proud to represent their country and fight as one.

Tbilisi will be going utterly bonkers right now!

The football looked great, quick on the break.
No slow build up, just nice and direct.

Shame they now play Spain, as I think Spain will beat them.

According to the BBC website, there were 16 yellows and two red cards in the game.

Significantly smaller population than Scotland too.

If we were playing anywhere near our potential then there's a clear route to the final.

If we played with anywhere near the spirit of Georgia, with the players we have it wouldn't matter which side of the draw we were in.

Portugal's defence were poor, but Georgia's counter attacking was quick and decisive. They knew where their team mates were and they trusted in each other (both in attack and defence).

Looks like that yellow card for the assistant worked out well for Slovenia. I'd rather play Portugal than Germany in the R16 personally.

Enjoyed Georgia last night.

Always great to see Ronaldo have a melt down as well. Flappy arms. Classic.
