    Cracking half of football. It's not staying 1-0

    Shout out for the ref....he's been very decent

    Yeah he’s handled it very well. There’s been some crunching tackles going in.

    This current set of results would have strong chance of throwing the Dutch into our path in the second round!

    Lovely finish for the own goal though.

    I missed the build up, not sure why the Dutch have completely changed their right hand side. Maybe they had a specific game plan for this, but it's not working.

    France frustrating there. I’d had a good few quid on them to be ahead at HT. Mbappe should be wide for me like, not through the middle.

    If we win the group, we possibly play the Dutch and if we finish 2nd, we play the Germans!

    What results do we need tonight to finish 3rd? <laugh>

    I don't fancy us against anyone with the current system and player selection to be honest.

    Good finish that. We could play one of these in the next round.

    I’d rather play the Dutch than the Austrians.

    France have actually scored a goal. Still none from open play like.

    Rangnick has them playing fantastic football. It shows how bad of a state Man Utd have been in when he was seen as a joke who couldn’t turn the club around.

    I had no idea he was the manager <laugh>

    The Dutch look exciting going forward but awful in defence

    Red Bull Austria. You would think an increasing number of their players will come through the ranks at Salzburg which means the best ones may progress to Leipzig as well. They'll be able to get a national style of football going that they're all comfortable with because they've played it at club level.

    Rangnick must have fancied making an impact in this tournament for him to turn down Bayern.

    True. I appreciate it is completely different levels but Spain peaked when they were basically Barcelona. All the players had been coming through and playing together for years. A similar thing could well be happening with the Austrians.

    Yep. I still think there’s another goal in this yet. Could go either way.
