I really wish Ramsay and Davies weren't out for the Portugal match. Still have a chance since they play much more as a team.
They just beat Belgium and Portugal hasn't really beaten anyone yet. Yes, they have a chance and they have Bale.
Could y'all imagine Portugal winning the Euros? They are favorites to beat Wales and probably will without Ramsey. In the finals they'd obviously be huge underdogs against Germany/Italy/France, but anything can happen in a final. It would mean that Ronaldo would win a major tournament before Messi. Looking likely to always have that over Messi if Messi really does stay retired. It would drive most of y'all insane. It's probably driving Ronaldo insane, too.
Still couple of hours away but I'm already pumped up for Germany versus Italy. Don't know If I could handle another loss against them. Had memories of 2006 and 2012 all week long.
Löw said he won't use the starting XI he played vs Slovakia, I don't like this. We played brilliant and showed no weakness for the first time, hope he isn't benching Gomez, Draxler or Kimmich.
**** no, why u do dis Jogi... <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="de"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Germany with a third defender (Höwedes), Draxler on the bench.

He was right about bringing Draxler in, let's see what the thoughts are now. Sure looks way more defensive now.
Does anyone else think this will be 0-0 and go to penalties? Or that Italy scores a lucky one and wins?
