As much as I've enjoyed some of Sweden's past teams, the way they've played in this tournament so far has bordered on cringeworthy. After failing to register so much as a shot on target in two whole games, you wonder whether Courtois will even need to turn up tonight.

Well done Northern Ireland. Germany seemed able to slice through them at will at times, but those magnificent fans have their goalkeeper to thank for a spot in the knockout rounds. I was a bit sad that I couldn't focus on Czech Republic-Turkey while it was happening, it looked really exciting. Turkey should just about squeeze through, to play either France or Wales if I’m reading UEFA's table correctly. Sadly though, it'll probably be at the expense of Albania, who I think brought more to the tournament in their three games.

That table is really starting to take shape, but it's looking very lopsided all of a sudden. More than half the pre-tournament favourites are going to end up knocking each other out now, with either Belgium or Croatia to surely reach the final from the other side of the draw. England's latest 'not quite' night against Slovakia has put us on a much harder road, and one that will probably see us bow out in the quarters at the latest. Not that I expected anything else, mind. Good to see Croatia through to the next round though, they were impressive in all three of their group games. Subasic was so far off his line for the penalty that I thought he was going to jump into my living room, but after the referee's appalling decision to award it in the first place, I honestly wouldn't have been that bothered if he'd run all the way out and karate chopped Sergio Ramos where he stood. As for Spain, well I guess having already achieved qualification, they could be forgiven for going through the motions a bit, but they'll have to improve if they're going to do anything against Italy.

I have high hopes for this one. It's a long time until the release date, but a quick look at the logo suggests a playful and bright movie with a distinctly entertaining vibe. Kevin Feige has made it clear that Marvel is dealing with the creative side, as they hired Tom Holland, and that they’re orchestrating his introduction into the MCU continuity. So, it should amount to a lot more than just a cheap rights-sharing plan to slap the Marvel logo on an old product. And as an added bonus, it also has my idol, Gilfoyle from 'Silicon Valley'.

Four new TV spots have just arrived, all of which show more of the movie's humourous side. It was being reported a while back that the unexpected success of 'Deadpool' had led to parts of this being reworked to add more jokes, but David Ayer has since denied that.

He's only confirmed to appear in two episodes at the moment, probably with a view to being in December's big showpiece crossover event too. I must say, I'm not actually familiar with his acting work, although there's no doubt that he looks the part.

Tragic loss. The guy had such a future in acting, and to find out that it was nothing more than a freak accident only makes it all the more heartbreaking.

France and Switzerland safely through, then. I suspect that the manufacturers of Switzerland's kit would have had more questions to answer than either manager after the game. I was willing Payet's volley to go flying in though, what a special goal that would have been. Well played Albania, who must be in with a decent chance of making the knockouts now. Their goal difference isn't the greatest, so they'll need other results to go for them, but all look possible. If Sweden and Ireland fail to beat Belgium and Italy, and then either Czech Republic and Turkey draw, or Germany beat Northern Ireland, it'll be enough for them.

I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in the next game, but for the time being, he'll have to make do with a crap-trick (hitting the woodwork, missing a penalty and having a goal ruled out for offside) instead. Portugal as a team have been suffering from being basically set up as Team Ronaldo for a while now, often to the point where their forward play is disrupted because they try too hard to feed him the ball.

Best seat in the house, @Stromboli1 Did you enjoy the game?

You wait ages for a match where someone scores three goals and then two come along at once. It was all a bit easy for Spain last night, but they probably gave the best performance at the tournament so far. Most worryingly for all the other sides with aspirations of winning it, it looks like there's a lot more where that came from. A comprehensive win for Belgium that should, at the very least, lift the mood in the squad. Especially Lukaku, who took his two goals well after a really poor showing against Italy. If they could consistently play like they did in the second half, they could still go far. Much more cohesion and intensity. And they have the most beautiful kit.

Croatia are one of the best footballing sides in the tournament and probably deserved to win that game. It's a real shame that the disturbance happened. From what I hear, corruption is rife within the Croatian FA so it's perhaps understandable that there's discontent among certain sections of the supporters, although obviously, this was an unforgivable way of drawing attention to it. UEFA, if they punish anyone in Croatia for this, should punish the flare-throwing individuals and the corrupt officials. If they don't, the only losers will be the players and the real fans there to get behind them. Highlight of the actual football was undoubtedly Corluka's patriotic swimming cap. It looked like the kind of getup you'd see a lifeguard wearing on Bondi beach.

Shades of the Divine Ponytail in Eder's goal. Pretty tedious stuff though for the most part. Italy lack attacking options, but that Juve backline is something else. All the other teams will be having nightmares about facing them in the knockouts. Sweden looked like they were willing to gamble on three draws being enough to get them out of the group. They'll have to try and force the issue against Belgium now, which should make for a more open game.

This is just great.

Had a look at the first two episodes and to be honest, I'm already on the verge of switching it off. For a show that was always built around creepy charm, weird mystery and subverting expectations, it feels so plodding and predictable.

News just broke that Tyler Hoechlin of 'Teen Wolf' fame has been cast as Clark for the show's second season. Some folks online are pointing to the respective ages of Hoechlin and Melissa Benoist, others have shown disappointment about Tom Welling not reprising the role. I've no issue with any of that myself, but I'll be disappointed if the writers allow Superman to overshadow Supergirl in her own show. To be honest, I'd hoped that Clark would basically just stay as a CGI silhouette with no real exposure as a character. At the very most, a figure on a pedestal for Kara to try and live up to.

Hello, good evening and welcome!

Germany-Poland had so much potential, but the game just never got off the ground. We may be starting to see one of the flaws in UEFA's new tournament format. It can't be right, when you're only in the second round of the group matches, for there to be a scenario where neither side is that bothered about winning.

I believe in the last minute Hodgson had the kitchen sink warming up on the touchline. Would probably have been more mobile than Harry Kane.

Historic moment there for Northern Ireland, who can't now finish lower than third in their group. If they could get a sneaky draw against Germany, it would surely be enough to see them into the knockouts.

I'm hoping for a cracker from this one. Who's your money on?

I had wondered at the time if the Welsh defender lying in front of Hennessy had blocked his view of Sturridge's shot. To be honest, I'm still not sure. Hart's error was appalling at this level of football, two shots of note against him in two games and two goals conceded. Drop him for the Slovakia game, Roy, even if you replace him with a garden gnome.

In your face, Gareth. So many late goals going in at the moment. Hodgson was rightly criticised for making negative substitutions against Russia, but he deserves credit for his proactive changes today. To be honest though, that wasn't a particularly good all-round performance. While England ultimately deserved to win, I thought Wales's lack of enterprise after going ahead made it a bit easier than it really should have been. Still, commiserations to them, hopefully both teams still make it to the next round.
