with so many chances it's bonkers they haven't scored yet!

Good result......

Well, that is very disappointing as someone who has Holland in the sweepstake, but quite exciting for a neutral who likes to see the underdog win!

Would Italy beating Spain count as a shock? Because I can see it happening.

Me to NNW - classic Italy..

Never underestimate the Irish bouncebackability!

Am I boverrred? No... Have I seen a threat to English dominance? No. Pretty dros football all round so far, where's the passion?

i hope there's none of that from England tomorrow. Passion is what we need to see if we're to get behind this team!

Not sure about unlucky - I thought they were simply outplayed for the majority of the match and made to look almost second class.

things may have been different if they'd been given the penalty they deserved though. But yes, i agree, they were outplayed for a lot of the game, but held their own when possible. I guess i have a soft spot for them...

Couldn't believe the substitutions Trappatoni made. McClean should have been on & to take Keane off, wtf?

hello lovely! Hmm, i thought he did okay though they did seem to run out of ideas...

Hiya, sweetie, Keane was good, that's what I meant. Why take him off?
But McClean should have been on. He draws two defenders out of the game & still gets crosses in. All you need then is someone who can put them away.

Like Keane.

McGeady was pap though.

The only teams I've really seen passion from so far are Greece, Russia and Croatia.
