From what I gather Northern Ireland are OK so long as they lose under 4-0. Unfortunately you can see Germany coming alive with Super Mario back and Muller will be desperate to bag a few goals so could easily be more than 4-0
Am I seeing this correctly ? Unlike WC tournaments, there is NO 3rd PLACE playoff game in the Euros ?
Only a matter of time before Germany score, Mcgovern in goal having a great game already keeping them at bay!
I wonder if Jockim Love, will be caught on tv tonight wiping his finger under his foreskin to get some knob cheese out? Have England scored yet? Has anyone bought City yet?
Considering the gulf in quality between these two sides, Northern Ireland have played quite well, but I worry that if Germany get another one or two, they could go on to get a hat full.
As there was probably only one shirt sold with Sagbo on the back, should be easy to trace the origins of that shirt!!
Really glad for Norn Ire that they look like qualifying, but the fact they're looking like going through having won only 1 match and lost the 2 others sums up for me why this format just does not work. That game today they were playing to do no worse than lose 1 or 2 nil, and once ahead Germany had no real need to attack, so many of these final games have been played out like this, this tournament is just dull. Other than Belgium Italy, which was a really good game, I struggle to think of many genuinely enjoyable games that i've seen.
NI were out classed, but credit to them in the 2nd half they made it difficult for the Germans. McGovern looks a very good keeper, and had a great game.
So happy that NI are through. Such a shame Woy ****ed it up and made sure we were on the side of the draw with Spain, France, Germany and Italy.
You say that now but if you beat Spain, France, Germany or Italy you will forget all about him getting you on that side of the bracket.
