Up 2:1 vs France til the 75th minute. Tizzle Breh has a penalty with Ronaldo, but keeper saves it from the left corner. We then concede the 2:2 and lose due to a penalty in the 93rd. Tough loss.
I'm still thinking about PayAY's performance from Friday. The guy had an assist and a marvelous goal! Both with his left foot! He's right footed! Just a wonderful player to watch all season. Also, the emotions after he got subbed out and the moment got to him! Gave me the Footy Feels! <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Watching Payet tonight! �� <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/FRA?src=hash">#FRA</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/EURO2016?src=hash">#EURO2016</a> <a href="https://t.co/LxJ19WZh1p">pic.twitter.com/LxJ19WZh1p</a></p>— Not Match of the Day (@NOT_MOTD) <a href="https://twitter.com/NOT_MOTD/status/741369044654231552">June 10, 2016</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Also... FACK the Giroud haterz! All the Arsenal and France fans that hate on Sir Olivier Giroud can go suck it!
Guy is a monster and has one of the best shooting techniques in the world, France has all the chances in the world with him, Pogba, Griezmann etc. Pretty sure we'll see France vs Germany in the semis.
Gunner here and wish Granit Xhaka (what a name) and Olivier good luck Dayum I still root for West Ham's Dmitri. Guy is a stud.
I almost forgot this started. I have never been this uninterested in a EC... Maybe I will get into it at some point.
Day 2 starts in half an hour with Albania vs Switzerland. This will be interesting because ten Swiss players have Albanian roots. There will be even a brother's duel with Granit Xhaka facing his brother Taulant, who plays for Albania. This game probably won't be a tournament highlight but it should be very intense. Expect the first red card. Unfortunately I won't be able to see the two later games. It's my buddy's birthday, he invited me to a pool party and he and his lady hate football. Too bad.
Take your smartphone, download Zattoo, sneak to the bathroom and watch football instead of attending the party :grin:
That counts! Stupid move by Cana. Down 2-0 would've been better than leaving his teammates outnumbered for 60 minutes and missing the France game. He's too important. Switzerland gotta make their moves now for a good goal difference, so a draw against the French might be enough to win the group.
It was mostly hot air, great potential for a plot line but the game itself is not as interesting as the background story Albanians playing in Switzerland, Swiss players with Albanian roots, brothers Xhaka
True. Albania just isn't better than that, but Switzerland was disappointing. I can see Romania beating them.
good thing it is a tournament. anything can happen A good day from Swiss team and Romania can go home or vice versa BTW Christiano impersonation by Bale
