Wouldn't this be great if a miracle happened and it stayed like this. :laugh:

Never gonna, mind. Germany will score a couple at least I'm sure.

I was going to mention how much better the refereeing has generally been compared to the Premier. Really like how many good, strong challenges are being allowed. And the falling to the ground has mostly been waved on with or without a yellow to the diver.

But that France penalty. :?

On a positive note, France have looked proper guff today. Not worried if we have to play them at all. Don't fancy playing Portugal.

Let's hope France and Hungary both stay ahead, then England will be facing Hungary.
This is the way

Christiano Ronaldo equals the World record for scoring the most international goals (109) including 5 in this current tournament - surely he will claim the record outright before the current Euro tournament is over?

England v Germany at Wembley. Takes me back to 1966, I was there, no segregation or violence.

Well, a good first 10 minutes then pretty much all Denmark - lucky to be just 1-0 down at HT I guess....

Thankfully we've got a significant fan base there!! :roll:

It's not over until the rotund one warbles though......

That's that then. Wales didn't turn up on the day. Though Denmark were excellent. And what the hell was that red card for? :?

About as much of a joke as the Welsh display and Denmark's 2nd Goal......

Wales were completely outclassed - Ho Hum..... :cry:

Well, along with the Under 20's Rugby and AWJ dislocating his shoulder and now out of the British & Irish Lions tour, it's been a shitty couple of days for Wales..... :roll: :cry:

The only way is up as they say!!

I'm proud of the team Finland and I think, you should be proud of the team Wales. We both achieved something, Finland actually more than I thought just about 1,5 years ago. Of course, it was a disappointment not to get to the knock-outs but still. So, let's celebrate, let's not be depressed. Also for you, it was a great achievement to reach the knock-out stage. :cheers:

Wales did extremely well to get into the position once again playing in the last 16.Denmark played well,and at the end of the day,it seemed the Norse Gods were totally on their side for every decision.

Yes of course Wales have done extremely well to get into the last 16 - after all, very few expected us to qualify for the Tournament, let alone get through the Group stage.... Just a little disappointing not to move forward (rugby hasn't helped the mood.. :( :wink: ). As I've said, well beaten by a very good Danish team, but they can hold their heads up high.
