Red card for Cana.

 

Second yellow but that should have been a straight red.

 

That's annoying.

 

Why no straight red? Is this the new rule that I don't understand again?

 

Should have been a straight red. Deliberate handball denying a clear goal scoring opportunity.

 

I Cana believe it

 

Oh well. Switzerland will win this 5-0.

 

Game over. Swiss to score before HT

 

Or not.

The sending off is annoying, Albania looked like they might get back into it.

 

Shame for Albania with their Captain being sent off. Unless Switzerland allow it, that's the game gone.

 

Thank you Thierry, someone noticed it should have been a straight red.

 

Henry is very articulate and talks without cliches. He's easy to listen to.

 

He puns instead. Gareth Bale can bail you out.

Tbh, I'm surprised nobody has said it before. I'm sure the thought occurred to many of us back in the lads Saints days. I can just see the Echo headline.

Footballers always seem to feel the need to talk like footballers. Henry doesn't suffer from that temptation.

 

Heard really good things about Embolo. Looking forward to watching him.

 

Hmm, high and wide when it was arguably easier to score.

 

Brilliant pass to play Seferovic through when his shot was saved though. And the chance you mentioned wasn't that easy. Looks a real talent.

 

Hard luck Albania. Side netting. Just looked at my predictions again from a week ago, and I've got this down as 2-0 to Switzerland. Really, it should be, but not with opportunities like that being allowed to happen.

 

He's an international. I'd expect a League Two player on a good pitch to get it on target.

 

Maybe he should have hit the target but it still doesn't change the fact he's a brilliant prospect.

 

Perhaps. I haven't seen anything too brilliant yet.

On your favourite subject, I think the officials have had a reasonable game so far. I would have said good, but the Ref missed a Switzerland pull-back by the defender.
