    What an amazingly well worked corner that was. Training ground stuff.

    Honestly love international football. Cracking start to the tournament already. Still the best form of football to watch, away from games with your own side.

    Cracking technique from Barella. Shame Albania couldn't keep themselves in it for longer.

    Fouling a player to stop a counter? Doesn’t sound like Italy…

    My son is treating me to a round of golf at an away course for fathers day. Will miss the Netherlands game. Just glad there is so much more to come.

    Great day of football.

    Not impressed by Italy but I rarely ever am. Spain looked good and was very impressed by the Swiss.

    Roll on tomorrow.

    Typical Italy...get their nose in front and hold what they've got...pity Albania didn't have enough to trouble them.

    Italy are “that” team. Good at what they do, awful to watch. Possibly the least entertaining team at the championships!

    Footballs been great so far, bar Italy being Italy... then it's Englands turn

    Surely Gareth cannot go all defensive?

    With the attacking threats we have. He would be mad not to play to our strengths.
