Assuming Spain has scored
Watching it as I consider Spain my second team. Thought they'd done it, but the sneaky Germans got one in at the last minute. Extra time now...
I can see it on a big screen across the way.

Now watching Portugal France.

It was interesting when the commentary said that Ronaldo had 60 free kicks in major tournaments.
Only ever 1 goal. Blimey.

Thought the French penalties were ace. Keepers couldn't do much about them tonight. Yep, the earlier game was more entertaining. Bring on Saturday. 😥

England have progressed well in the competition so far, it's there style and entertainment value that has been piss poor.

Southgate has played the man utd way, shit football but hoping on a moment of brilliance.

Switzerland will be a proper test.

Watched all the games so far in a pub with plenty of space outside and not too cramped.

4 families with babies just turned up and all squawking.

Had to move.

Andrew Pitt was WSS600 champ with no wins.
Joan Mir was MotoGP champ with 1 win.
Nicky Hayden was MotoGP champ with 2 wins.

Winning doesn't need to be pretty.

They do know they're supposed to get the little round thing into the big net thing at the end of the pitch don't they?

The Scottish dickheads in the bar next door went berserk.
They were shouting and swearing at the English fans watching.
Parents are getting upset coz they don't want their kids to witness it.
Some are leaving
