UEFA Euro 2016
Croatia is by far the best team in our half of the draw. Unless they have a huge off-day, they should be a shoe-in for the final. Other side of the draw is harder to predict. France still hasn't convinced me, but they have the easiest path to the semi-final on that side of the draw. I think it might come down to fitness and how many/the nature of each team's suspensions, but I think Germany-France will be the semi-final on that side of the draw, with the Germans winning a close contest. Croatia to beat Germany in the final to become another surprise (though not quite) Euro winner.

I hope you are right, but I'm not convinced. We were set up very badly again. We hardly pressed, especially in the second half. We still don't have any recognizable patterns in our attacking play.

So how about all those pre-tournament "Belgium are shadow-favorites" stories, eh? How we only manage about 20 minutes of good football in three games combined, with the players at our disposal, is beyond me. Even a Swedish team which had managed no shots on target in the two games prior to facing us looked half-decent when facing Belgium. I hope we have enough to get past Hungary (which will already be a tall order). But then it'll be Wales and Bale, and we already failed to beat them in qualifying (worse still, we failed to score a single goal on them over the length of two games).

Belgium still has work to do. First to get at least a point against Sweden tonight, then to beat (likely) Portugal. But if we do that, we should get to the semi-final. Where we will likely lose against Croatia.

Happy with the result, but the football before half-time was still quite poor. We countered well on two occasions and had a nicely built-up goal for the 2-0. Still, I would like to see this team put together something close to a proper, 90-minute performance. At the same time, I can appreciate how difficult it can be to break down a team that plays in two banks of four for most of the game, like the Irish did.

Does anyone know the origin of that scar on her right arm?

I feel a bit sorry for her son. Imagine the amount of times he will have to endure a friend telling him "Dude, your mom is like, really really hot!"

Hmmm. Two of those stars were earned under fascist regimes. The third was in a tournament where they started really poorly but somehow put it together for a handful of games (and deprived perhaps the most fun Brazil team ever their WC title).

A very fishy stat: ancient Italy (the team they fielded was the oldest so far at the Euros) also was the team that covered most ground collectively. Hmmm.

Sad we are wasting our Golden Generation on that guy, but I don't expect our FA to do anything about it.- Elsa Hosk
Wow, very lovely in that outfit!- UEFA Euro 2016
I guess Özil will just have to be content with being the best creator in the game and only be appreciated by stats anoraks.- UEFA Euro 2016
No one here believes we will win the cup, at least not in terms of it being a significant amount of people. In fact, there are far more supporters who fear a very poor first round. Me, I think we will reach the quarter-finals and then be eliminated.- Lais Ribeiro
Wow, that top shot. A flawless face.- UEFA Euro 2016
I think he should start a front four of Carrasco-Hazard-De Bruyne with Origi as the nominal CF, but give all of them license to switch positions. Then you have four guys who can all beat their man one-on-one. Let the opposing defense choose their poison in who they don't double up on.- Bojana Krsmanovic
Wow! That video really proves that photographs don't do her justice. In motion her body/beauty is almost hard to believe.- UEFA Euro 2016
Yeah. He is also probably going to start Fellaini at the n°10, in spite of having Kevin De Bruyne on the squad.- UEFA Euro 2016
With all of our defensive woes, I expect this to be a pretty poor tournament for us.- Hannah Ferguson
Can you link me to the video?- Sarah Gadon
