Made to look better by the Slovakians rolling over and Croatia being absolutely knackered in extra time

Reckon Switzerland would've nicked it with 11 men.

Akanji pen was ridiculous. By the time he’s stuttered, his upper body is above the ball, standing leg pretty much in front of it, leaving next to no power for his kicking foot. Muppet.

Knocked out in my first game of Rugby, lost my thumbnail to a cricket ball as a ten year old, played football forever and never liked the boneheads who had 2 left feet and just wanted to maim everyone. Basically - a wimp!!

They'll never claim Gibraltar back at that rate.

Essentially they've beaten 1 team so far in 90 minutes, Slovakia. They've drawn with Sweden, Poland, Croatia & Switzerland.

The gaps closing because the top nations are much worse .

Compare Spain boring 2021 to Spain boring 2008 .

Teams are miles apart ability wise

Just seen the red card back. Maybe it was the right call.

Wonder if De Bruyne gets stick for not singing the Belgian national anthem?

To be fair nobody cares about Belgium not even their players so it's OK

Already calling this - Belgium win

If De Bruyne stays fit, then they're the team we'll face in the final (and I agree with whoever said that they'd be favourites)

Come on England!

Dunno if said before on this thread, but what a hopelessly pedantic directive it is to have a team in away strip even if there's no clash of colours.

Behold Belgium vs Italy. All red vs blue and white but no...

Italy ahead , Belgium have to come out now ...something they haven't done since atleast 2018

Italy love that kind of free kick. Is that their 3rd goal of that kind this tournament?

If this was the Premier League they'd still be drawing the lines now.

Difficult emotions for ae team that has a goal chalked off.

Chiellini looks like the local simpleton who pushes his bike aimlessly around the village (not that I am stereotyping )

Belgium look so dangerous. I wouldn't fancy playing either of these.

Chances are we play 1 of these 2 if we make the final ..both look better than Spain
