    Only you, Roly, could look at one of the great saves of all time and describe it first and foremost as a dreadful miss.

    I'm pretty sure you wouldn't enjoy it even if we did win the Euros. Which does raise the question, not for the first time, of why you follow football in the first place.

    Do you at least enjoy moaning about it? I hope you get some joy from life.

    Was a great save but 3 yards, free header is still a miss. Plus the lad had been Foden-ing everything for about half an hour, poor passes, losing the ball, etc. So just an observation!

    Have to admit, that’s a fair point.

    Spain score in the 119 minute.

    Poor Germany.

    And it’s an ex NUFC player. Interesting that.

    Great goal. Just when Germany seemed to be getting on top too.

    Indeed. Isn’t it nice that it happens to other teams.

    It's always better if the hosts stay in until late in the tournament. If we had to meet one of these in the final I would have preferred Germany
