utterly incredible for a nation of 330,000

still amazed that Iceland, a nation with half the population of Newcastle that you can't even go outside for half the year because it's covered in snow can play such incredibly well organised football

Hello peeps
I was checking out these Euro tables; especially after a Dutch mate was down in the dumps over their predicament I decided
to investigate their chances through the 3rd place qualifiers...and I suddenly had a realisation after reading this rule:
The highest ranked third-placed team from the groups directly qualifies for the tournament, while the remainder enter the play-offs. As Group I contains five teams and the rest contain six, matches against any sixth-placed team in each group are not included in this ranking. As a result, a total of eight matches played by each team count toward the purpose of the third-placed ranking table.
The fact that a 3rd placed team in the 6 team groups points are negated against the bottom team, there is the posibility that some teams who have taken full points against
last place but not 2nd last could have the carpet puled out form under them IF the 5th and 6th teams swap places..especially on the last round.
Does anyone know if this has right royally fooked any country up in the past? Has this rule always existed to find the best 3rd place getters?
Interesting groups where it's close are Groups A, C, F & G

As per the teams, I will be rooting for Team England! They may have lost one goalkeeper a few weeks before euro 2016 starts due to an injury, but I am confident they can perfectly fill up the gap. :)

Giroud knocked the keepers arms then ref gave relatively soft pen at other. All equal there for mine. then a worthy game winner.
Lots of attack hardly any passing around the backs. I wonder If this was a directive for both teams from the big boys

Yeah but the hools of the 70s and 80s were old school and were hools 24-7
The modern day hooligan from England is just a try hard trying to live up to the stereotype
Not forget that football prices has made it a middle class game and the talent pool for hools has been reduced significantly

My opinion... not a chance. Great defence but nearly as bad as the jets when it comes to any kind of creativity. They peaked against Belgium and got a great result, they will struggle to break down the big guns on their side of the draw. But said big guns will struggle to break them down too.

Funny that. You say Spain has had the wood on Germany.
Italy has had the wood on Germany. I think Germany has never beaten Italy in a competition match. (they have in friendlies)
Spain just got past Italy in the last Euro competition when Italy had a couple of their best players out.
For Italy it hinges on the Spain match. If they beat Spain the only team that I can see beating them is Croatia.

Iceland are the Italia 90 Cameroon of Euro 2016
which probably makes Portugal the Argentina
then I guess you'd have to make Italy France and France Italy
England and Germany play themselves, with the English press carrying on about how golden an age it was for the next twenty six years

Was on the rock'n'roll that year...my 'Gap year' after work/apprenticeship lol
I watched most of that tournament. Want 4 weeks of my life back...still!
Revenge of the Leprechauns is tempting at 11pm tonight...
Thing is with the Portuguese in recent years they really struggle with weaker opponent's
Can see them beating Croatia though.
Called it 5 5 5
I thought Wales and NI was a dull affair until the useless twats croatia and Portugal came on. Spineless, boring, cheating a**holes are a disgrace to their cvntries, football and this tournament. geez I hope the coaching staff are hung for assisting in that diarrhea.
It is the 1st in 25yrs of tourny watching that I couldnt give a sh*t about extra time. late comments due to watching replays, I see a few above have rightly beat me to it.
lets try again tonite

Don't know what your whingeing about
Portugal are notorious for putting on boring displays at major tourneys
Who will forget the 2006 WC
Figo CR7 Robben RVP Sneijder and Dirk Kuyt
Yes the big names in world football.
The ****ers barely strung an attack together between kicking the shite out of one another.
A glorious match up on paper was one of the worst games to ever sit through
Also don't get to excited tonight.
Hungary V Belgium has either boring or a Belgian blitzkrieg written all over it
Germany towelling Slovaks iPad per usual
Not forgetting the French will labour about against the Irish who will hopefully do them over
Wait to tomorrow night
Italy V Spain looks a great affair and then the lulz when England get sent home in disgrace in the England V Iceland with special guest Rest of the World affair

A full night of entertaining football... brilliant! Now to drag my arse through the day!
How bad were the Irish??
Considering they had lots to play for particularly revenge for Hand of Frog i thought they were pretty poor.
They jagged the early goal then could barely keep the ball after that.
No dramas sitting in and parking the bus and defending what they have but their skill set was piss weak. They barely threatened the French and it was a one way procession in the second half until the inevitable French goal
After that the next 8 minutes was like watching the Newcastle Jets. 2 goals conceded chasing the game and then down to 10 men.
Complete cluster**** of an implosion that looked like it was straight out of the Jets manifesto on how to **** things up for yourselves
So a quick update on who is left in it atm (with two more Rnd of 16 games to go - Italy Vs Spain, England vs Iceland)..
Bon - England, Poland
Jeterpool - Italy, Iceland
q-mo - Germany
belchardo - Wales
goaliepersempre - Spain
Grimario - Portugal
leftrightout - Belgium
lquiquer - France

They were pretty bad against Belgium too... the 3rd place teams making it through doesn't sit well with me. I know its due to number and such but i just didn't like that teams can play like that and get through. In Portugal's case, get through without winning a match!

To be fair though some good coaching at the half by Deschamps hauling Kante and spreading them out.
French were pretty horrible themselves 1st half.
Agree on the Irish being a rabble though.
2nd half was a procession for the frogs.

Spain should cop a half goal penalty or something at least for wearing those shirts.

Hahahahahahaha. EAD England, you come to a knock out tournament with a group stage game plan and you will go home disappointed. They never really looked liked a team, they looked like a bunch of premier league players playing in an all-star game.
What an utter lump of numpty that Harry Kane bloke is, can't take a free-kick/corner, yet doesn't have the intelligence to give them to Wayne or Jack or Walker and just get his shrek-ish head into the box?
