4-1 at 60’. Great setup, perfect header.I’ve been away from the game but a friend who was born in Portugal is texting me, ranting and raving. It’s 3-1 Germany at 55’ and I’m told that two of the German goals were Portugal own goals.
Yep, the pressure is coming in waves. They could score 10 at this point.I’ve been away from the game but a friend who was born in Portugal is texting me, ranting and raving. It’s 3-1 Germany at 55’ and I’m told that two of the German goals were Portugal own goals.
100%. Germany is looking very very strong.Yep, the pressure is coming in waves. They could score 10 at this point.
4-2. Ha. Ronaldo is literally involved in every goal they create.100%. Germany is looking very very strong.
Ronaldo miraculously saves a free kick from going out and even more miraculously puts the ball in front of his man for an easy tap-in. Freaking all time play.100%. Germany is looking very very strong.
Diego Forlan, right there.Not EURO 2020, but I was watching this game on Sunday, and thought the Philadelphia Union goal by Glesnes, in stoppage time to tie the game, deserved some recognition.
Belgium and Denmark take 1, 2.Situation at 80’ has Denmark taking 2nd. (Until just now I had not realized that Denmark was still alive.)
The Denmark-Russia was a fantastic match! The fans were having a ball.Belgium and Denmark take 1, 2.
I have tons of Danish colleagues. I bet they won’t be answering emails quickly tomorrowThe Denmark-Russia was a fantastic match! The fans were having a ball.
I wasn’t watching, but from the description, it sounds like Kane was trying to score on his own...if the players weren’t impacting the shot, he can still score even with them in the offside position.Question for @Erial_Lion or @SUPERTODD
Late in the first half Kane took a shot from just inside the box with Sterling and one other English player each a clear two feet offsides. The keeper put the rebound in front of him but Sterling turned his back and walked away, didn’t even bother pretending he wasn’t offsides. Here’s my question: Who was at fault for the missed opportunity here, the two men offsides or Kane for not recognizing that the two men were closer to Emirates Stadium than they were to Wembley
Thanks. I always forget that part. The two men were right in front of the keeper so I suspect they’d have been called offsides even if Kane’s shot had gone through untouched.I wasn’t watching, but from the description, it sounds like Kane was trying to score on his own...if the players weren’t impacting the shot, he can still score even with them in the offside position.
Regardless, those guys aren’t doing any good hanging offside...but if they were just finishing a run or something and Kane missed one of them, it’s understandable.
Another mistake on my part is noted as the matches are completed. England 1, Croatia 2, Czech Republic 3, with the Czechs making the round of 16.I am watching Czech Republic 0-1 England. Winner gets 1, loser gets 2. Just now halftime. Croatia 1-0 Scotland is the other game.
England looks sharp, 60% possession with the breakdown on passes being 269-184.
I wanted to watch it before answering. Sterling made the run as he was supposed to do. If he does not make the run and Kane shoots a little earlier and there is a deflection Sterling would not have gotten on it. Kane probably should have shot earlier. He is just not in top form right now.Question for @Erial_Lion or @SUPERTODD

Absolutely. A wonderful player who almost always makes a mark in these important tournaments.Modric has been described as “a little boy dressed up as a witch”
He’s also a genius. World class stuff yesterday from him
The two late matches from that Group, both ending in 2 - 2 draws, were an entertaining rollercoaster of advancement opportunities.Germany-Hungary was an instant classic. Germany needed a draw to advance and they score at 66' to get to 1-1. Hungary scores immediately after, not five seconds after they kick off. Germany then ties again at 86', final was 2-2. Both Hungary goals were SMH spectacular. Wow. My default rooting interest is Germany so I was pacing like a madman. (My wife spent her senior year in HS in Essen, and we have many dear German friends.)
I'll update with the complete round of 16 matchups, but for now Germany will face England in Wembley.
