A brilliant game and a half spoiled slightly by a commentator who wrote off Croatia too early...and a summariser who LOVES Morata.Originally posted by Edgy 2 View Post

That's Emma Hayes, the Chelsea coach who has been the best analyst at this tournament. A lot of people stick up especially for Morata after the abuse thrown at him recently.... his brilliant strike for 4-3 was one of the truly great euro goals, in an all-time classic of the Euro game....and the best possible answer!Originally posted by johncorrigan View Post
A match I feel privileged to have seen, despite wanting Croatia to get through.
Scarcely got my breath back from that, and a quick blast to The Woods to clear my head.....
Lets see what Les Suisses can do here... watch out for our man Shaqiri, so gifted, Big Shaq as Klopp likes to call him...
Wow - not a bad start, is it? Classic Lewandowskian header from Seferovic...Last edited by jayne lee wilson; 28-06-21, 20:23.Comment

You always feel with France that grabbing an early goal against them only serves to wake them up and force them to come at you.Originally posted by jayne lee wilson View Post"I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance.

Well the CH passed well, pressed well and defended well...but I guess France can only play better than that...
Fascinating game, perfectly poised for the 2nd half....Comment

WOW! No answer to that one, is there? Pogba of the brilliant hair!
YES! Come on Les Suisses!
An agonised hairsbreadth from another 3-3....goodness.....

Yes yes yes! It is 3-3!
Well, well....."now I've seen everything.." But with football you never have......did you ever see see a last few minutes like that?

Gosh.... we all know who has the greater firepower, but... in a shootout..... here we go....!
I wanted the Swiss to do it, I so admired the way they played and fought with such staggering gifts against them......great save from Sommer for the Fearful Fifth! But Mbappé to take it? I wonder.....
What an amazing, wonderful day...... barely time to recover before........ well you know.....
The shift I've put in at the TV today....! I need a good rest.... but right now, something to eat at long last.....
Ah... here come The Cats...... they always come first, don't they?Last edited by jayne lee wilson; 29-06-21, 04:07.Comment
