1-0 Portugal

Good decision by the ref......how many times do you see a keeper come out to punch the ball, miss it and punch a player but a penalty is not given.........

 

[Stroller]

Jenas talking absolute bollocks about the penalty.

 

[Trammers]

Apparently it's 29 degrees in Budapest, so no wonder the tempo drops on occasions........

That is spot-on, if Lloris comes out to punch the ball and misses it and I think he does. He looks like he basically punches Danilo in the face, going for the ball but obviously catches Danilo and it's a foul.

At first he said that the ref should check it because the ball hit Lloris's arm.

As it stands...
Cristiano Ronaldo shakes things up:

Portugal v Switzerland/Ukraine

France v England

Hungary v Belgium

Ah.... yep talking bollox......

Germany 0-1 Hungary

As has just been said on BBC commentary, this has a proper FA Cup early-round tie feel to it. The rain, the tackles, the shock on.

It's like watching a non-league side take it to a Championship side, but with world-class players all over the pitch.

Did you find the first half yesterday boring to watch mate?

I found the first half a vast improvement on recent performances, including well before this tournament. The rest has been very dull and boring. I genuinely (just my opinion) think people rate our players better than they actually are but on the other hand, other teams have caught up internationally in their standards of play. It may be a case of the opposition making us look average.

 

[Trammers]

Penalty to France............

VAR Check.......

 

[jeffranger]

Very harsh penalty given

 

[Trammers]

1-1

Keeper went the wrong way even though a Portuguese defender was telling what way to go......Keeper ignored him.......

 

[Trammers]

Very harsh penalty given

Not as harsh as some.......defender shoved Mbappe stopping him making a run......thought it was the right call

Fair enough.
I disagree about our players.

 

[rangercol]

Well.....France have been pretty awful.

Never a penalty for them.
Ref evened things up.
Huge ego this ref.
As it stands we just want 1 more from France and we play Hungary, who wouldn't be easy either imo.

 

[bobmid]

If thats a penalty on mbappe then anything can be a penalty

 

[Trammers]

France score but VAR check for offside........

Goal stands......

 

[Trammers]

As it stands now......Portugal are out......

 

[daverangers]

France 2-1 up...both because I live here, and it'd be nice for them to do well until they play England, and because I'd rather England play Hungary next out of the other options...ALLEZ LES BLEUS!!!
