Was thinking that. If that is a central defender winning the ball and his boot is knee high probably a red

Always been that way.

I thought De Bruyne looked offside for the 2nd goal, probably need to see it again.

He really does

It's been a enjoyable tournament so far and will probably get better when it comes to the knockout stages.

Think the flick on was from the defender

The Switzerland v Germany game tonight . I read that if Germany win it they will likely have to play Spain in the quarter finals. If they didn't win it would they get a more favourable draw ? .

It is correct that they would likely end up paying Spain in the QF however if I’m not wrong coming second would have them likely playing England in the QF

German manager was asked about it , said his team will play to win and you can't change a winning mentality though I did wonder if the lost to the swiss would it be better .

I'd rather play England than Spain on current form tbh .

Don't think big teams think like this. About 25 European cup medals in that German squad, they'll rightly be thinking they can beat anyone.

Good point! Maybe the Germans have consulted with the biggliest team in Edinburgh what they would do in this situation?

All they do in UEFA competitions is lose and sing about Hibs.

Very surprised to see Germany make zero changes. A risk I think.

Swiss are 1-0 up.

Great for us (in terms of England having as tough a route as possible to a hypothetical final)

The English have their own 1-5 comfort blanket

Jesus Navas starting for Spain tonight. Guy seems to have been around forever lol.

Spain looking good again. 1-0 up at halftime. Could have had 4.

2 unbelievable saves in 2 minutes from Donarumma then let down by static defenders standing about admiring the view. Di Lorenzo wants stringing up.

No wonder he's ****ing raging.

These commentators man. Shut the **** up about the beer ffs.

Why did Bastoni not head the ball looked like he ducked.

I thought they'd stopped doing penalty reviews? 😭

If Italy fail to score and finish 3rd I wonder how that will effect them?

Scenes

England qualify for last 16 due to Spain’s 1-0 win

Some finish for Italy seconds before end of the game.
