    Gutted there's no 2pm game today. What's the point of having to work from home for the last 18 months if you can't have a bit of a scive for the Euros <doh> :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Not the same is it? Probably for the best though, the Euros on top of the two recent England test matches hasn't done much for my productivity!

    Oh well, be Wimbledon soon, then The Open, then the Olympics plus more Test matches.

    Nearly just did, though a clear offside.

    Interesting seeing Tomato Sandwich on for Portugal. He’s had a good season, but he was such a disappointment on loan to Swansea that year. An abject lesson to Diallo doubters, it’s a hard league to get used to, and a CM when you’re young seems to be the toughest place to adapt to.

    Not that it's going to affect the result but I'm baffled the Hungary player wasn't dismissed. No attempt for the ball there.

    Love listening to British commentators against Germany. You might as well have French ones.

    Germany look two years minimum past their sell-by date.

    Hopefully they can win the next two games to sneak 2nd as there is definitely nothing for us to fear there if we play them as opposed to France or Portugal (although to be fair Portugal weren't that great either).

    Suspect it might be a little shorter than that!

    I think Hungary could spring a shock and send the Germans home early.

    Yep. Tend to agree. I don't think it *will* happen, but it certainly could.

    Didn't think Senegal would beat France in 2002 or South Korea knocking Spain out. You don't expect these things to happen and then they do! If Portugal beat Germany (and I think they will) then they will be under huge pressure against Hungary.

    I don't think they looked bad, just slow and old. And a bit blunt up top. They should have the quality to overcome Hungary, but as you say, stranger things have happened.

    Can't see them getting any further though.
