End the games now

Slovakia 1st and Ukraine 3rd... even Belgium go into the other half of the draw.

Belgium are terrible, you can't be comparing them to the other 4 sides already mentioned that England will avoid.

[Darius1998]

Seen a replay of the Romania pen for the first time. I'm guessing the VAR didn't consider the first contact a foul but decided that the one on the line was?

Bottom half of the draw for KOs shaping up to be jokes.

Imagine a run to the final of Slovakia, Switzerland and Austria  

Take it you dont see England making a run to the final? 😁

L.E. Missunderstood that, you meant England's run to the final. Doubt they can beat the Swiss or even Austria. 😀

Of course they're not at the level of Germany, France, Portugal and Spain.  But from an England POV... still rather have Slovakia in our half of the draw than Belgium.  Always the possibility that Belgium could finally go up a couple of gears.

[Astafjevs]

Think you'll find it's our half of the draw 

[HOORAY HENRIK]

Joke of a penalty award. This wasn’t one last night btw

 

[craigcwwe]

That decision to award Romania a penalty is a joke of a decision. Worst one this tournament. 

[DJ]

They could have shown that Ukrainian banner for a few seconds on TV ffs.

[CFuller]

"This group is being topped by Romania, who were thrashed 3-0 by Ukraine."

Where do they get these commentators from? 

[EdBed]

What the f was that flash and bang?

 

Lightning I'm guessing based on the subsequent rain.

[skybluedave]

Thought that was in then for Romania. Bit like that Sterling ghost goal 2014

[CFuller]

Did the commentator imply that Mangala's an exciting prospect? He's 26. 

[CFuller]

Ukraine adopting the "don't worry about scoring, I'm sure we'll be fine anyways" approach that worked sooooo well for Scotland.

[skybluedave]

Proper football weather this in Frankfurt

[Freakiie]

29 degrees and a massive downpour. Perfect weather.

[Pukey]

That was a superb bit of refereeing from Taylor it has to be said. Wasted opportunity for Belgium.

[Haguey]

Add Carrasco to the list of players who have great talent but ****ing atrocious awareness and selfishness

[Rob1981]

WHY AREN'T THEY PLAYING LIKE THEY PLAY FOR THEIR CLUB SIDES KLAXON

[Darius1998]

Great save Trubin.

[The_jagster]

Great effort by the striker to stay offside throughout

[Barry Cartman]

Love the constant digs at Doku throughout the match here when 5 minutes of Gordon and Palmer running past 1 player had all the pundits creaming last night

[av3ry]

Dovbyk? Is that Ukrainian for Donkey?

[Freakiie]

Dovbyk.

[Darius1998]

Ukraine have got into good positions a few times but keep wasting their chances.

[Rob1981]

Can we assume that Slovakia v Romania has slowed down to 'Disgrace of Gijon' levels?

probably going to score now I've said this but how was he top scorer in Spain this season?

been one of the most disappointing strikers at this and there's been plenty

[Haguey]

So one match presumably walking pace, and the Ukraine one is a desperate end to end shambles

[Darius1998]

Shevchenko and Rebrov must be wishing they were on the pitch instead.

Actually Slovakia-Romania is pretty entertaining. Obviously they're not going all out attack, but Slovakia is trying to win the game and the group.

Slovakia definitely going for it, Romania not so much

was pouring rain earlier so that will keep the game interesting with the greasy surface

[Marius_R]

Oh god, 10 minutes of squeaky bum time. 

[Darius1998]

That would have been an extraordinary goal.

[Haguey]

Oooooooofffffffff

[Freakiie]

Most dangerous situation so far, a direct corner.

[Marius_R]

We're not really giving it much of a go ourselves either, but Belgium...

[TalkSport]

Belgium   Deserve to go out for this.

[Darius1998]

This is so chaotic.

[Rob1981]

Ukraine finally realised they need to score.

[GunmaN1905]

That's what you get for blocking Malinovskyi's shot. 

I was sure that's a goal.

Tbf Slovakia might park the bus better.

 

This is not great...

[Darren Moores Mum]

Straight at the keeper

[TalkSport]

KDB don't want no more games, just let him walk by  

[Darius1998]

Sudakov had to score that.

[CFuller]

Sudakov 

So close to finishing off the Tintin Tinpots, but it's straight at the keeper.

[Astafjevs]

That's their chance 

[Rob1981]

Had to score

[Darren Moores Mum]

Keown thinking Belgium shouldn't bother trying to score

[Haguey]

Carrasco is a braindead cheat

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

Mon Ukraine. Send Belgium home.

[Marius_R]

Group winners. Haha. If someone told me this before the Euros, I'd have told him he's delusional.
