So, there are several reports saying a group of hooligans (football-terrorists?) are planning to interrupt the Croatia-Spain game this evening. Hopefully they get stopped by the French this time.

In England they often have the away section surrounded by stewards, they need to do that here just to be safe.

Congrats Fillipo.

I've been critical of the 3rd place thing - but it has made the Euros very exciting!

Well, Turkey screwed us good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

I wonder whether Hungary will pull a miracle tomorrow. Highly unlikely, but we'll see.

Sorry X-Off, was really hoping Albania could get through. It's been nice seeing fans of countries like Albania, Wales and NI and the atmosphere they have helped create because it's such a big deal to them.

Makes me think I should appreciate the games more rather than complaining.

Thanks for the appreciation. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

In the end it was still a marvelous experience for us, and it really helped boost the image of our country and people throughout Europe. With a bit of luck we could have continued, but perhaps it's better like this.

True. I hope this is the image that people take away from Euros. Of Irish serenading the Swiss etc.

Shame your WC2018 group is almost an impossibility. Hopefully the Euro2020 qualifying gives you an easier time.

Dear Han, it's save to say you were all wrong about Conte and Italy. Like I said, he created a cohesive unit, a team with confidence and work rate, speed and a few tricks that come handy. That's why he didn't tip for the Milan-losers.

But hey, we have Brocchi, or maybe one of Giampaolo, de Boer, Montella...

Conte is amazing. I was angry at him for leaving out Bonaventura, but boys, if Italy's playing like this it's mostly because of him. Same story when he took over Juventus. After two consecutive 7th placements he managed to win the Scudetto with the likes of Matri, Quagliarella and a 37-year-old Del Piero in attack.
