[BigBoSS_Riot]

Exceptional collection of goals scored tonight.

**** yeah, lets go Portugal

 

[BigBoSS_Riot]

Always liked Portugal.

International tournaments bring the best goals

International tournaments bring the best goals

I'm starting to subscribe to that theory. No idea why but there's been some belters so far in this tournament.

 

[Jibroni]

Turkey v Georgia was a cracking match, Arda Gula scored a contender for goal of the tournament.

Football is the best game when both teams go for it.

 

[PowerfulPies2023]

Great games this morning. Turkey vs Georgia was a ripper.

 

[PowerfulPies2023]

After seeing all the teams who's been the best so far? Germany or Spain?

Similarities between this Euro and last Euro in the opening games

The opening game and host nation smash their opposition.
Embolo scores for Switzerland in the 2nd game of Euro
France win their opening game by a goal to nil via an own goal
Portugal net late to win their opening game
England win by a goal to nil
Ukraine concede 3 goals

That game was madness.

I hope Georgia go through. With only 8 teams dropping out it could be that 1 win and 2 losses would get them into the knockout stage.

Interesting! The last world cup def seemed rigged for Argentina

Spain beat a higher level opponent, but Germany comprehensively dismantled Scotland. Both look a lot better than the last time I saw them.

I'll ever so slightly edge it to Spain.

 

[royboy2]

Ronaldo going to ground a LOT so far.

No more than usual though

 

[RossFC]

I tell you what, this break from club football is actually pretty good. Euros has been great stuff so far.

 

[big_icky]

Go Albania!

 

[Frank Bunn]

There's been a few great goals in the tournament but also a few where the keeper should have done better. Like Livakovic in this game, Georgia v Turkey and the Czechia keeper v Portugal.

 

[RossFC]

Fair few own goals this Euros already.

 

[Frank Bunn]

Another cracking game this one.

 

[RossFC]

Surprised that Germany goal counted, blatant shove.

 

[omgfridge]

Surprised that Germany goal counted, blatant shove.

Think old mate milked it, wouldn't be a foul anywhere on the pitch for mine.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

This is shaping to be another ripper, Hungary definitely look like they have a goal in them.

Anyone finding that Optus Sport haven’t updated the extended highlights or is it just me?

Last one I can see is the Turkey Georgia game. No Portugal and no games from this morning. There’s the mini matches but no highlights.

 

[Occidental]

Realistically, this is where Scotland would have hoped to have been. Germany a loss, Switzerland a draw… and all to play for v Hungary.
Goal difference may well decide against them in the end.
I hope they can get through.
