Game 10: Austria vs France live from the Düsseldorf Arena. ITV1 8pm

[Pukey]

You could see him looking for that about 10 seconds before it happens  It's still somewhat risky defending but it's never a pen.

[DJ]

Austria moved the captains armband from Sabitzer to Arnautovic. Clever move, because he is going to talk to the ref no matter what ^^

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

Kolo Muani an upgrade to Dembele

[GunmaN1905]

French forwards competing who's going to have a worse attempt.

[Haguey]

Thuram

[DJ]

Griezman almost literally walking all over the ref

[georginho_juventusygr]

Great defending that.

[GunmaN1905]

Kind of stupid to give him a yellow, he got the ball first.

[Astafjevs]

'Foul the other way' 

 

[Haguey]

Few times Austria have been one decent ball away from being in, frustrating

[Pukey]

Please tell me Lee Dixon did not just say that should be a foul the other way

Who's the new Mike Dean. And why?

[WillHoward42]

If anyone should be getting a yellow it’s the keeper with his leg following through and whacking Baumgartner’s head.

Shouldn’t be a yellow for either of them really.

Ok maybe I'll take that back. Dreadful

[DJ]

I doubt that Jesus Gil will be getting many more matches. Not a very positive name in football anyway. 

[HOORAY HENRIK]

Muani has been so bad

Christina Unkel. American former referee (though having watched the last few Women's World Cups, I don't recognise her name at all).

Probably built her reputation on US TV, but still an odd choice.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Not yellow that.

[Astafjevs]

Turn of pace from Kanté there. Fair play

[Pukey]

Classic Kante

[Freakiie]

As ridiculous as starting Kante sounded, he has been playing an amazing game.

[Haguey]

Kante is still so good, what a player

[CFuller]

Saudi league or not, Kanté is still gonna Kanté. Probably saved two points.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Whoa.

[enigmatic]

"Call that a reason to clutch your face? This is a reason to clutch your face."

Good old no concussion protocols...

[GunmaN1905]

Time for full on Ninja Turtle look the next game.

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

The OG is coming

[Coulthard's Jaw]

That's a proper broken nose

[georginho_juventusygr]

Ollie's time.

[Rob1981]

Kante having a stormer because the relatively inexperienced CB partnership needs protecting. Well I’m shocked.

[eenie]

Proper Steve Bruce nose there

[titchuk]

Ref lost it!

[av3ry]

La Liga refs are useless 

[CFuller]

This referee is probably the worst I've seen at the Euros so far.

[Harryseaess]

Disgrace from the ref.

[georginho_juventusygr]

What is going on here?

[Lucas]

Should send him off for that. 

[eenie]

Ref has lost the plot here. Stupid.

[eenie]

Send who off?

[DJ]

This yellow against Mbappe was correct though

[titchuk]

I missed the first half but Austria look pretty good.

[Astafjevs]

Looks like he returned to the pitch without the ref allowing it. Then just sat down. That's a booking, surely.

[m_fenton]

Ref's not lost it though? You can't just walk back onto the pitch after treatment and immediately collapse ffs.

[GunmaN1905]

Finally a proper sh*thouse fest, first of the tournament.

[Smallen]

pretty reminiscent of last night’s game this

[Haguey]

Mbappe booked for cheating, fair enough innit

[Lucas]

Mbappe, just going on and then lying down to stop the game. Yellow was correct but I didn't like it at all.

Well he should've let them sub on when the ball went out of play.

The ref hopefully

France wasn't allowed to sub despite being ready so Mbappe had to limp back on and force another interruption.
