chrisjpainter Posted July 5, 2024 Report Share Posted July 5, 2024 This has been the worst Euros I can remember. It's not just England. France, Belgium, Portugal and Italy have all looked dire for a lot of the tournament. France are in the quarters by virtue of a penalty and two own goals - a France with the likes of World cup winners Mbappe and Griezmann in it. We're dead boring, of course, and it's not helped by a dead boring manager, but I'm starting to think they're all just dead tired. Weary decisions all over the pitch tonight. Weary crosses, weary shots. It'll be 120 minutes of a twelfth round, where neither team has the strength to stand, let alone punch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisjpainter Posted July 5, 2024 Report Share Posted July 5, 2024 Excluding the penalty shootout goals, France are into the semi finals, having scored 1 penalty and got 2 own goals in 5 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agriv8 Posted July 5, 2024 Report Share Posted July 5, 2024 Not just England that are struggling to find the back of the net euro 2024 so far seems to have been one of defence over attack. Agriv8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd expect all the teams to be at least trying to play positive 'try to win' football !? I was even appalled at the way Germany played !!! 🤭😲🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted July 6, 2024 Report Share Posted July 6, 2024 Well we were at Wigan watching Wigan vs Leigh, a very very good game where unfortunately Wigan showed their class, no rolling around on the floor pretending their hurt. I watched the highlights at 11, and I'm glad it was just the highlights 😅😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ditchman Posted July 6, 2024 Report Share Posted July 6, 2024 what i cant get my mind round is...... we see all that talant pushing the ball around the pitch...all good stuff eh..! then a multi million pound/year player shoots at 15-10 yards...and they cant even get it near the goal posts....

Mice! Posted July 6, 2024 Report Share Posted July 6, 2024 Well it was another dull game, I was quite releaved when Switzerland scored but it wasn't to be. Was it Portugal who won a few tournaments ago by going through on penalties?? Seems to be the England tactics, but the pens were very well taken.

JKD Posted July 6, 2024 Report Share Posted July 6, 2024 So it's an England v Netherlands semi final, courtesy of a fumbled own goal by Turkey 🤦♂️ Unlucky to them, because they really tried their best 👏👏👏 England played slightly better but still room for improvement 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
