Euro 2021 non-Scotland games

[flash]

To be fair to Steve Clarke he has got us there which is more than a long list of managers before him.
He probably was a bit conservative on Monday but it's not unreasonable that he stuck by the players who got us here.
The big test for him is whether he has the courage to make difficult decisions for Friday night.

I’m glad Wales got their 15 minutes of glory but if that incident had been on the other foot, we would be seeing it over and over again. For me it takes the shine off their performance and I won’t shed a tear when they’re kicked out in the knockout stages.

When have we ever seen an incident like that over and over again?

Your over egging the cake aren't you, you see that all the time & many time at ER, Wales defending for all it's worth, Turkey attacking for all they're worth with time against them. Storm in a tea cup.

TBH the Welsh defender went down holding his face when there was no contact at all, the big Turkish forward went to see if he was ok and was then pushed over by another Welsh player for absolutely nothing, then it all kicked off, definitely Welsh players in the wrong.

I’ve got to hold my hands up and admit over-reaction to the incident but I really get hot under the collar at blatant cheating.

I agree, although I think it was a foul so no need for face holding or pushing. Having said that to hope Wales get pumped out because of some play acting, which I've seen similar at ER, is taking it a bit far. I wish Scotland had shown as much commitment on Monday.

Italy singing the Ferrari song again...

I don't want them to lose, I want Wales to do well, the cheating things also annoys the hell out of me too, a bit like Bales dive for the penalty.

The Italian national anthem is class.

[Mon Dieu4]

Italy should have went up there

[Mon Dieu4]

Good to see Insigne playing well, I always like a wee guy to play well in every tournament

[flash]

Italy are so good to watch. Play the game at a right good tempo.

Yeah totally agree, it's something that has crept into football more and more & it's not pleasant but I don't think it will be eliminate now.

Even if we did, they probably wouldn’t get a game ahead of someone who might be handier at defending set pieces.

Too wee etc.

[Jones28]

That first volleyed pass was sublime.

[MWHIBBIES]

Italy are fantastic. So good.

Chiellini off, but looked like just a precaution.

[Betty Boop]

Beautiful football from the Italians.

[weecounty hibby]

That was a ****ing fabulous goal. From the volleyed pass to a man actually beating a defender to the perfect cut back to Locatelli running 60 yards to finish. Absolbrilliant

[Mon Dieu4]

Italy have been by far the most impressive outfit so far for me

Terrific, from the initial pass, to the speed at which he travelled with the ball & the lay back, exquisite.

[Jones28]

Best team to watch in the competition for me.

[SteveHFC]

Italy should have a full tournament again.

Definitely They’re looking like playing Belgium in the round of 16, that could be epic.

[Iggy Pope]

Is the Swiss kit identical to the Czech kit anyone? Looks that way.
