Unfortunately I only had the chance to watch the last 15 minutes of the Danmark-Belgium game, but I hear it was very entertaining. Danmark still have a chance of going through from the group stage if they beat Russia and Belgium beat Finland. I guess a 2-0 win will get them through. I don´t expect them to win but I hope they do .

Great game: Denmark vs. Belgium. I wished a Denmark win, but kudos to both teams. Very quality match.

As a German I will always love to see the Dutch lose, but I have no complaints about their football either. The most exciting match may be Belgium vs Denmark if the Danes have managed to pick themselves up after the shocking experience on Saturday. They probably need a point to have chances of getting out of the group and that will be very hard to do, but I hope they'll throw everything at it.

Today I'm supporting North Macedonia, Denmark and... Netherlands... I'm not a Netherlands fan, but I like their football style.

He said "ground", so I thought solely that. You're right, the Irısh generally hate the English for valid reasons. |

That's not neutral ground, the Irish hate the English as much as the Scots do. Have fun, I may see if I can get to the pub.

Wales vs. England in the final match? Pretty much a phantasy, but I would love to see such a fantasy come true! |

Wales surprised me against Turkey (as they were very ordinary against the Swiss) I'd be more than happy for ANYONE to thrash England in ANY game but I fear the Scots will lose again on Friday

I support England I guess. I'm not passionate about football by any stretch, but enjoy watching a match.
Wales were excellent yesterday against Turkey. I'd be more than happy for Wales to thrash England in a final. Both squads in pretty good shape. |

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

I loved to see Italy playing yesterday against Swiss. Will they win them all ? No one can say, but I surely hope they continue providing good entertainment !

None. I'm much more interested in Euro Prog, and Euro Disco too, admittedly.

FIFA removed the previous 'obstruction inside the penalty box' rule in 1997 (which was punishable with an indirect free kick and NOT a penalty kick) and replaced it with 'impeding the progress of an opponent.' as noted by Lewian above The penalty for impeding remains an indirect free-kick. So when was the last time you ever saw one given? I'm probably hopelessly biased as a ex defender, but as far as I see it, all the changes they've made to the laws since the 80's have just outlawed tackling as a forgotten art and encouraged in it's place, the so called low block a.k.a. 'parking the bus' and the 'tactical foul' a.k.a. 'cheating', 30 or 40 yards from goal. It's no wonder that spot kicks are now given for impacts where you could kiss the attacker with more 'force' I get it that people (read SPONSORS or CLUELESS FANBOYS) want to see goals but that's only half the game. Good defending can also be great to watch if you have an appreciative grasp about what is required to be successful at the game. That said, Scotland are still a bit sh*t Edited by ExittheLemming - June 17 2021 at 03:03 |

^ Missed a penalty ridiculously, made too many passing errors... His shooting was terrible too. I was actually shocked at how badly he played.
But, he was the real Bale through the end. Very classy. Edited by Shadowyzard - June 16 2021 at 15:34 |

He set up the first goal and setup up an easy chance Ramsey missed in the first half.
