I see Lukaku nearly scored with a back flick from a cross, a la Ronaldo. The commentator/pundits mentioned it. At the time, nobody mentioned that Ronaldo back flicked his goal just like Vardy did just a couple of months ago for England.

Did you mention that several significant goals have been scored over the years, because of various back passes to goalkeepers, which was why a general coaching change happened.? It's a simple thing but it inhibits the blushes.

Tell Gary Neville that... Croatia (I think) v England in a qualifier.

I'll mention it now!

Very impressed with Hungary 2nd half.

Having some decent chances now, Belgium are getting worried.

That was the lumpy pitch, IIRC.? The ball bouncing over the small divot created by the goalkeeper when taking his goal kicks, and his foot.

EDIT: I take it from your LIKE that I did remember correctly.

Game over.

Eden Hazard is back to his brilliant best.

Simple but good goal

Camera pans the crowd, and a woman puts up a board saying KIss Me Carrasco.

Nothing is said. Then quietly, Simon Brotherton says... He's a bit busy at the moment.

Another good goal. 3-0

wasn't it Paul Robinson in goal?

Hmm, feels right. Pre-dates Hart, etc...

Good luck Wales!

Glad we finished 2nd in the group now.

Sorry, yes.

Carrasco was busy. 4-0 FT.

 

[ihatemyselfandwanttodie]

Yup, all part of big Roy's master plan...

Belgium or France Spain & Germany. Nah, I'd prefer Wales side of the knockout.

I wouldn't. Belgium look the business right now. Full of confidence. I'd rather face France in the QF than Belgium.

 

[TheSecondStain]

So, does Michy Batshuayi want to play in the Premier League.?
