Ooft! Bednarek needs to score that. Should have been 2-2.
Very promising start to this tournament so far. Tonight's game has potential to be excellent as well.
This could be a tight group with Sweden and Spain seemingly well matched and Poland with a decent performance tonight with ten men. Looking forward to seeing tonight’s game.
Surprised at the Spain team. Not sure who I expected them to have but that is far from a particularly strong side they’ve got out.Quote:

Go on the swedes. Looking forward to seeing this young striker
Looking forward to this one.
I think the stadium where this game is being played (in Seville) is where Celtic played their UEFA cup final, as far as I know no Spanish League team plays there.
Sweden going old school with a 4-4-2
He’s facing stiff competition but surely Danny Murphy must go down as dullest commentator ever.
I'm adding Danny Murphy to that list.Quote:

Nice looking stadium, makes you realise how dated Hampden Park is.
.
Not seen a team this dominant since opening night.
Spain should play Moreno up front instead of Morata.
They'd be better off playing me up front instead of Morata.Quote:

They only agreed on it against the only other choice they were given of playing it the following lunchtime.Quote:

A very strange game. Sweden have done very little apart from being closest to scoring, twice.Quote:

Let’s hope Danny is more careful turning his mic off :eek:Quote:

Moreno is a cracking player. No idea why Morata continues to play ahead of him.Quote:
