    Spain fucked up an earlier counter with Williams free on the left and ready to burst in on goal 1v1 with the keeper; instead, the idiot with the ball went with a long lofted ball to the right. Never even looked Williams' way.

    Rodri from outside the box is always a good bet.

    And there you go. Gave England extra minutes, total gift.

    Slovakia wasteful in possession now. Could have held the ball for a few minutes but wasted a poor outside shot and some unnecessary misplaced passes.

    Mighty Slovakia is going to send England home. TBH, they're playing really nice football with lots of movement and sharp passing.

    Classy play by Albania today. Played clean, played positive. Hats off.

    About time. Shit delivery all game.

    Hahahaha! Fuck defensive teams. tbh, Germany's delivery into the box has been lacking all game. Finally a good ball (and a player up to the finish).

    Fer-nan-desh. 3 syllables. Men-desh. 2 syllables, not 1. Appears you are correct about Pepe, even though La Liga announcers (incorrectly) used 2 syllables the entire time he was at Madrid. https://www.joe.co.uk/sport/it-turns-out-you-have-been-pronouncing-pepes-name-wrong-this-whole-time-112980

    Nah, you're wrong. The Anglo announcer pronounced everything with 1 less syllable than there should be. You're correct in that it is more of an "ezh" sound than a "ez." Fer-nan-dezh, not "Fern-ands." I studied Brasilian Portuguse for awhile, which is a whole different animal and pronounciation...

    That was a no brainer. You have to be an idiot not to square there with a 100% chance of scoring. It's the whining and demanding the pass every time that's the problem.

    Jotta is more of a team player and good enough.

    Man... The idiot announcer is fucking up the Portuguese names, leaving off the final syllables. If you're going to cover international football, do your fucking homework. Pe-pay, not Pep. Men-dez, not Mends. Fernan-dez, not Fernands. jfc.. Selfish play is stinking up the pitch. Ronaldo, crying...

    Yep. Game took a huge dive when the subs came on.

    Most entertaining yet, for me. Of course, if Spain comes up against another 5-4-1 block, it's bound to slow down to a grind. Italy is defensive, but don't put every player in the box.

    Get your point, but it's 8 teams eliminated out of 24 (all 6 of the 4th place teams, and 2 of the 3rd place teams).

    Not at all. It's these 5-4-1, ten men behind the ball anti-football games that are the grind. Kind of reminds me of the old compulsories in figure skating. You have to grind through that boring shit before you have a chance to really skate. What could help is a exponential scoring system. 1...

    Go on Czechia, keep playing 10 men behind the ball. Fuck that shit. Go Portugal!

    Cancelo with the best pass into the box of the tournament so far. Silva should have shot instread of trying to square.
