After reading all the comments on here, I consider myself fortunate at having missed the game as I was coming home on the plane from fuerteventura. UTM

Ronners you didn’t miss much at all.

Trust you had a great holiday pal. Now for the fixtures at 9.00am.

You didn't miss anything, although I would have been interested in your opinions on the game.

Population of London 9 million
Population of Slovenia 2 million

And that’s the best we can come up with

Without doubt now Southgate has demonstrated that he’s Mr Safe and tactically inept, but should he shoulder all of the blame?

Or are the players overhyped and in reality are very ordinary?

No they are class players, they wouldn't be playing for the teams they are and scoring the goals they do if they were crap, Southgate is an administrator not a coach, move him upstairs into a technical director role so he can deal with the FA and the politics of modern society and go and get a winner with a personality that the players will respect, that man is Klopp

After reading the comments Brin I realised nothing had changed regarding the way we have played this tournament, although having watched the highlights we did have enough chances to win the game.
As for the hol Brin, I love the canaries and always enjoy it cheers. UTM

Unfortunately Jocks I can't comment too much other than what I put to Brin regarding watching the highlights. UTM

With Romania and Slovakia both sat on 4 points both these teams will be going for it sat on 3 points each. A very tight league indeed.

Ten minutes gone and at the mo Belgium are doing most of the pressing with Lakaku trying to put one away but to no avail.

[Brin]

Currently still 0-0 but Slovakia are doing all the pressing.

Currently have had 60% possession with 4 shots with 1 on target compared to nothing yet from Romania but that can sometimes change from one attack.

The Czechs need to win this game badly or may see themselves going home. Currently sat on 1 point, this will not be good enough to take a 3rd place ranking position in order to stay in the competition.

They could also be without key striker Patrik Schick for their crucial final group game at Euro 2024 against Turkey as the Bayer Leverkusen forward went off injured in the second half of the 1-1 draw with Georgia in their previous game.

Turkey sit second in the group with three points.
Avoiding defeat would be enough to go through, but defender Kaan Ayhan is targeting a second win in the group, to replicate one of the national team's most memorable wins.
They fought back from 2-0 behind to beat the Czech Republic 3-2 at Euro 2008 on their way to reaching the semi-finals.

Imagine it will be high tempo with the Czechs going all out for it.

[Brin]

1-0 to Slovakia, not surprising looking at the control of the game. Currently now sit top of the table, who'd have thought that?

Georgia winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia believes his side are "more motivated" than Portugal to win their final group-stage match.
Roberto Martinez's Portuguese side have already qualified as winners of Group F.
A win would realistically be needed for Georgia to progress. If the Czech Republic and Georgia both win, they will advance in second or third.
"Psychologically and motivation-wise, we are more motivated than Portugal because Portugal is already through to the round of 16," Kvaratskhelia said.
Playing at their first European Championships, Georgia have one point to show from two promising performances.


Think Portugal should be far too strong for Georgia and should cruise this one comfortably seeing Georgia leaving the competition. However, they need to win to stay in so being football and all that........
