Grobbelaar wouldn’t be up to that
Spain and England seem to be in similar places form wise.
3 mediocre performances, stumbling into the knock out phase and look like a bit of a soft draw for someone more at it.
Spain score from a cross. Laporte.
Slovakia are going out as it stands and Ukraine would be through. Slovakia would need to draw this game to go through.
Superb from Moreno for the second, dug it out and cut out all the Slovakians.
Are too many teams getting through? France can beat Portugal by 3 and Portugal are still through. The 16 team format lead to better group finishes IMO
Yeah 16 is the right one.
8 was murder.
24 is this 3rd place mess. 36 matches to knock out 8 teams. Garbage.
If England played like Spain played in that first half the hype would be off the charts
16 teams would only mean 2 games per day from the start though.
Can they not get though with a France win later?
24 does also mean every team has a chance of qualifying going into the last game
Lovely stuff from Spain there
Two lovely goals by Forsberg and Lewandowski
We would have topped this cow shed of a group.
Lewandowski
Sheer class from Lewandowski
Lewandowski scores when the pressure is off.
I would say the pressure is very much on like it was when he scored against Spain the other day
They are out now too little, too late.
Half an hour left here
