Euro 2020/21

Now then Howoldboy, you're on a hiding to nothing with Ukraine now.

England are very beatable, Germany only have themselves to blame for their defeat with the chances they missed.

Ukraine's chances must have improved significantly now that they are playing England.

Especially as England will be playing away for the first time and it should be nice and hot in Rome on Saturday.

Nevertheless using the same logic as for Germany, I laid them at 44/1 last night.

The Italian national anthem is lively and always seems to give the team a lift pre kick-off.

In comparison the dirge that is God Save The Queen can't do much to lift England.

Italy looking good.

Giorgio Chiellini as ever a huge presence.

Yeah but I expect to see most of them rolling around the pitch for the next half hour.

You may be getting confused with Spain.

To be fair, they haven’t.

Yet.

Even Spinazzola wouldn't go down when he was injured.

Doku (Rennes) looking a bit dangerous for Belgio.

5 minutes stoppages is a farce. The long injury was 3 minutes 20.

I agree.

It should have been 4 minutes max.
