Congrats to Italy who, following yesterday’s results, are the first team to qualify for the knockout stages with a game still to go, and also Wales who are *almost certainly* there with 4 pts already in the bag after their great win v Turkey!
Today is the return of Denmark after the horrific events of last weekend with a game against fancied Belgium. I understand they’ve agreed to kick the ball out in the 10th minute for Christian Eriksen (number 10) who thankfully continues to recover in hospital.
Anyway, today’s predictions :
Ukraine 3-0 North Macedonia 2pm
Denmark 0-2 Belgium 5pm
Netherlands 3-1 Austria 8pm
Who do you think will win today?

 yep - there are things more important than football whatever Bill Shankly said! |

Belgium, Ukraine and Holland for me"
One down, two to go! Belgium must be faves in the next game but it’s an away game .. should be a good one at 5pm? |

An early lead for Denmark after 2 mins.. the Belgians aren’t infallible after all! Decent crowd in too, no reason we can’t get more into Wembley going forwards ..  |

If you didn't tune in for the Ukraine - N Mac you missed by far the most entertaining game so far. Three goals, one disallowed goal piss poor pennos missed and a yellow card for a dive so bad the player was laughing even as the ref booked him. Top stuff. |

They've definitely all come onto the pitch with the intention of playing football, that's for sure Clive |

it’s often the less “glamorous” games that are the best! Shame it was a 2pm game and most will have missed it!
Great minutes applause on 10 mins in the Denmark game for Eriksen |

What a turnaround .. after being very disappointing in the first half the Belgians have certainly turned up 2nd half and a 1-0 HT deficit is now a 2-1 lead.. form is temporary class is permanent! |

I think that they will be undone by the Italians in the quarters… |

"What a stadium that looks in Copenhagen : close to the pitch, tight stands, great atmosphere .. one for the bucket list I reckon! "
Actually… been there! … well… the old parken anyway!
Arsenal played Parma in a cup winner’s cup final there… all I remember is the Danes laid on a super cheap alcohol tent… I was blitzed way before kickoff .. and the put plastic trumpets on all our seats!!!
I have never been so d*unk at a football game…. Happy days!!!!  |

Sounds awesome! I’ve only been to Copenhagen once (not for football) and it was amazing! Also can’t wait to get into a full stadium again. |

"How do others feel about the ITV commentary team?
Personally I can’t stand Clive (best game ever) Tyldesley"
I’m preferring the BBC coverage both in terms of commentary and pundits. I actually prefer radio commentaries tbh |

BBC pictures with red button 5live, it's always surprising that Rob Green doesn't sound like Worzel Gummidge |

"Netherlands and Italy looking like the best teams so far. Good to see after they both missed the 2018 world cup "
can they maintain it or have they peaked too early? Will a team who builds momentum through the tournament be the ultimate winners? We will see |

I thought second half belgium looked pretty good too... Considering they didn't get out of 2nd gear. And the one man team that is Portugal. |
