Emma Hayes co-commentating on ITV (me neither)

Spain dominating the early stage - 11 minutes played, 0-0
 
Koke, for Spain, one on one with the keeper. Keeper blocked. Could’ve easily been a goal. First chance.
 
Another Spain chance, header by Morata. No power. Saved.

croatia have 2 forays in the Spain half….

update…. Croatia take the lead as I type! Back pass to Spain keeper, hits his foot and goes in. No pressure. All been Spain.

Well rather than stinging Spain into upping their attacks, that goal’s brought Croatia into the game and they’re attacking more. Maybe Spain’s confidence and belief was knocked badly seeing that cock-up.

and Emma Hayes drops her ‘T’s in that fake London/“I’m-white-but-I’m-black-innit” way

She just said "inveniv" instead of inventive and "consera-iv" and instead of conservative. Why doesn't she go the whole hog and regail of with tales drive by shootings daahhn the East end, pearly kings and queens and jellied eels? I can't take much more of her.

Hilarious goal, that keeper makes Dubravka's **** up look like positively good play.

Intensi’y
Azpilicue’a

and yet she can say ‘switched’ and ‘tested’ with no difficul’y
 
She just said 'wevva', whether I assume and not weather but who knows with these cheery, chirpy cockenees...

Other than the amusement of the own goal I’m finding this pretty dull. Probably why I’m obsessing about the commen’ary
 
I’ve watched most of the Euros on mute……this equal opportunities crusade by broadcasters has ruined watching sport for me. We’re just as bad in Ireland, I turned on RTÉ and it’s two women in the studio with Kevin Doyle and Didi Hamann, why can’t they **** off home to cook the dinner!!

Kenny Cunningham commentating on the first half

"I thought he'd try a little overhead kick, maybe if it was 10 years ago he might, he was worried he'd dislocate his hip" - on 29 year old Koke reaching for a ball that he couldn't even touch.

what a ballbag!!!

I miss lads like Tony Gubba and Peter Brackley, PlayStation commentary would be better than the Sheilas!!

I am however glad that some of the old knackers aren't there anymore - ie Barry Davis with his wierd rambling tales that never went anywhere, Brian Moore with his tedious monotone, etc.

Also glad that useless squeaking bint Jacqui Oatley doesnt seem to get jobs anymore.
 
Everytime Morata touches the ball he's "goin' ta graaaaaaaand" apparently.

And Torres isn't doing the "saaaaaaame taaaaaaaape of defensive work".
