Ronaldo with a big mouth, nothing new under the sun.
Same for the soccer/football nosense. It should be always be called football (even the world government body uses football, not soccer!)...it's all your fault, foxxxer! ____________

William said:I only think they deserve criticism because they had a lot of possession and, for the most part, didn't do enough.
Not true, they create tons of movements, they have a fluid and clever game, wear out their opponents, and Iniesta is a genius. Even with a less stronger team than before Spain stays incredible thanks to him.

Not a lot of depth to this squad.
Why rest Pogba and Griezman when you are only playing the second game of the tournament.

The coach tries a new system based on Payet... Without Grizmoon and Pogbat?!?! The good system would be to have Pogbat and Grizmoon instead of Martial and Coman (even if Coman is good).
Nonetheless it was the only moment for the coach to try this system before important matchs, but oh man so boring.

France looked awful indeed in the first half. OTOH, with Pogba on the 2nd half they looked like a completely different game. Albania played solid through the game, but France deserved a goal for their efforts on the 2nd half - again, can't say the same for the first.

Lol at Joe Hart. This a classic England side if I have ever seen one.

England pulled it back, for once. They played much better on the second half, although it is worrying that they slowed down so much after they tied the game with Vardy's goal. For a good 15 minutes it looked like England was happy with the draw
TBH Wales don't really have much to offer aside from Bale, who isn't doing much either (bar free kicks, corners and header attempts from crosses, obv).

England is gonna get ripped apart by the first serious team they have to face. Maybe even by Slovakia.
Poor Ukraine. Hoped they could do better but apparently not so.
Lots of late goals this tournament. Probably a sign of fatigue either mental of physical but weird to see it this soon into the tournament.

Missed England-Wales, watched the highlights. This time Fortuna was favorable for the English team.
Ukrainians didn't really push after the first goal, looked like some kind chaotic. Maybe the weather helped to the N. Ireland, disrupting the game. IMO this will be one of the two groups where only two teams will advance to R16. I highly doubt that the Germans will make a draw against N. Ireland and the Polish team needs one point in the next two games to qualify (maybe they’ll get it tonight).
And something I encountered today – Turkish woman messing with her husband during Croatia-Turkey

Another late goal.
This was more like the Italy that I have come to love to hate.
