Austria have been the epitome of the word team. No superstars, full of selfless grafters and talented players who are well coached by the bloke Man Utd had for a few months... |

"So harsh on the Danes. I hate handball decisions like that
What a penalty, though. No keepers saving that… except Pickford."
Yeah, I think there's too much determination to make things black and white with subjective decisions. Some things should be left to the on-field ref's discretion even if VAR tells them to take another look. |

I am starting to admire your devotion."
I will have to delete my account though if he’s responsible for our exit. |

I don't see how Denmark made it through to the last 16 on 3 points when others in 3rd place had more points. Didn't deserve to lose to Germany, but don't think they deserved the last 16 place anyway. |

Denmark made it through in 2nd place over Slovenia due to better discipline record |

The explanation can be found online. |

"Tough break for Denmark. They were unfortunate to be drawn against Germany.
Tough with the disallowed goal and penno given purely because of the Maradonameter"
Given because the Germans are hosts?, just saying |

"Not really lived up to this afternoons goalfest but Spain have ground out a result
Poor Yamal, kid needs a goal!"
Absolutely not. The commentators would be arrested for wanking over a 16 year old. |

Jude Bellinghams performance yesterday was like the OJ Simpson trial, and the goal he scored in the last seconds of added-time-of added-time, was like the moment OJs lawyer said the glove didn't fit.
He is quite literally England's version of Scott Mctominay |

"The Swiss will be tougher. Hope Southgate gets the initial team selection right this time."
I suspect it’ll be more of the same.
Only exception may be if Luke Shaw is fit enough to resume his role at LB. |

Luke Shaw is just a waste of a squad spot that could have gone to Grealish or Maddison.
He's clearly not fit. I'll be surprised if he plays a single minute of this tournament.
The fact played the awful Tripper, Saka & then even at times Eze in his spot yesterday shows you Shaw is just there for the buffet cart. |

"Does this now make the 0-0 England got against Slovenia seem more credible? "
I was thinking similarly.
But…
Portugal have at least been largely entertaining during the game, just missing the goal for the efforts.
England on the other hand, entertaining?  |

That’s basically what I just said.
I do think that Martinez is foolish to stick with Ronaldo this late when he’s clearly not got the pace |

"Great game, feels weird saying but a shame for Germany to go out, knowing that France and Portugal are about to ruin my Friday evening with a great big serving of steaming dung"
Portugal for the win! |

You'd think Danny Murphy would cheer up a bit wouldn't you. Good salary for watching football, expenses paid overseas travel, presumably not in a Travelodge either. Minimal working hours and yet he's SO FUCKING MISERABLE |

Cba to watch the rest... would probably prefer to play Portugal over France though so hopefully they win.
I think England are going to beed to dig deep and switch gear to get anywhere from here on out. |

Maybe a Travelodge was the only hotel left for him?! |
