Iceland and Hungray drawing today means Hungary almost guaranteed making the next stage.

Romania become first team to head home after defeat from Albania.

France almost scored one of the best goals of the year but payet hit the bar. Decent enough Watch.

That would have been an outstanding goal!

 

I feel the tournament is struggling a little bit now.  Number of dull games the number of decent games IMHO.

What, ever?  Can anyone confirm or repute this?

 

Depends if we are classing the African Cup of Nations as a Major tournament?

 

Zero scored in Jan 2002 (Against Burkina Faso) and left Pittodrie in July that year.

Wales top group and the winners elect only finish 2nd. Think Slovakia should be alright for one of best 3rd place gigs.

England is going into meltdown about hodgson making changes yesterday especially since they wanted to top the group. Especially removing arguably the best player in the side this tournament, rooney. 

 

Wales were thoroughly deserving of the 3 points, such togetherness, unity and players and management knowing what they're doing. Well worked goals too.

Wales were fantastic last night, one of the most accomplished international performances we have ever seen. It was beautiful to watch, football played with great skill at high tempo and slick in every department. This is all made possible by team spirit. Bale is the obvious superstar but they have stars all over the pitch this tournament and its most definitely NOT the Gareth show. Congratulations to them and to the management team in particular. Chris Coleman has been the right man for the right time and has done a phenomenal job.

Croatia deservedly beat Spain, quick move for the second goal. Turkey beating the czechs mean them and the norn Irish qualify!

Personally hoping for an Belgium, Italy, Iceland & Hungary clean sweep tomorrow

 

Albania would qualify for the next round and Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic & McGeady would fuck off home 

As an aside from his performance last night it looks like we missed a trick in not securing McGovern from Hamilton.

Was thinking the same. Hopefully he'll go to a better team than the hunnery.

Staggering performance and thoroughly deserved win for Ireland.

 

Wales, Croatia and this have been beautiful consecutive performances.

 

Awesome.

Croatia have been most impressive team so far. Draw has opened up for them to make a run to final.

Yes, the draw has been freaky this year and it would be a shock if Croatia didn't get to the final.

 

It's not like Wales or Ireland or Northern Ireland or the other home nation have got a chance.

 

Shaping up to be a brilliant event. Germany is my money. Despite a slow start.

Brilliant first half hour by Italy. Deserved lead.

Could easily be ahead by more than one as well.

Yes, but for De Gea.

2-0 in the end, well done Italy

2-0 in the end, well done Italy

 

Real team spirit about the Italians.

Thoroughly deserved victory over Spain

Would appear that the Spaniards now enter a period of rebuilding, as their glory days appear to be fading

England 1-1 Iceland after 6 minutes 

Hart's reactions are ten times slower than De Gea's.

 

His "bravery" for the 1st was Clangfieldesque. His slowness for the 2nd hilarious.

Hodgson the only man with a coherent plan to leave Europe.

 

Tweeted just now apparently

Go on Iceland. Took them @ ,9/1 about 30 seconds before kick off.

The standard of commentary in the game has been marvellous.
