England mostly lost to penalty shootouts in the past, taking 5 strikers to the Euro is not going to help much either
Here we go! The most anticipated match in the tournament so far starts now. Nobody can predict this one. Hope both teams really go for it...
1-0 Italy. You could see that coming. Spain is way too passive. What are they waiting for? Better weather?
De Gea should've parried it away from goal, unless that velocity is too high to be able to do that. Not a keeper so I wouldn't know. Just a thought.
I dunno. Took an elbow to the rib cage...smh The Texans should sign Buffon for situational end zone lobs. Dude can probably be super effective.
Yeah but it's not like Didier Deschamps is a particularly good coach or significantly better than Hodgson though. In that match up, I figure the french crowd might factor in to help spur their team to victory....or maybe England will be able to silence them early(depending on England handling their business today).
Germany-Italy will be insane, and then France in the semi. We're really effed draw-wise, Belgium has a free pass to the Final.
I won't be the least bit surprised if Iceland win this. If England is good at anything, it's finding a way to f*** up.
England does not have a single player as good as Pogba. Or Griezmann. Or Coman. Or Payet. Or even Martial. There is too much of a talent gap, plus the crowd. Yes :grin:
