Denmark Czeck 2 1

They were pretty lucky to hang on to their lead.

Not a fan of Immobile on the National team.
He reminds me a bit of Chinaglia, great success in league play, always fell short on the international stage.
Spinazzola is a huge loss, gave Italy the same breadth at wingback that Grosso/Zambrotta did in 2006.
Its weird, he was capo cannoniere in the Italian league, but doesn't do well with the national team.

Anyone see the red card in the Brazil Chile game last night? The presenter wasn't even sure if he was going to get one.

Nerves, pressure and wrong decision during the spot kick.

They were lucky beating France last game in the shootout. This time, no such luck.

Word out is the Benzema is a jinx, similar happened in south africa. There is infighting in the change room as Benzema has blackmailed another player with a sex tape, he's going to court in october.

I only got to see the first half but it appeared like the Danes could attack from anywhere while the Czechs were reliant on Shick.

This is kind of sad to watch, Alex Bastoni will have a significant role to play going forward.

This has been the most bizarre Euro ever.

The Azzurri are playing Total Football while the English are playing Marcello Lippi Ball. Never in a million years would I assume this would happen.

The PRC paid Lippi a shitload of money to improve their National Team, he couldn't wait to get back home.

Lippi also won Juve's last Champion's Cup.

Englsnd is taking no changes for the game against Denmark. They require 14 days quarantine for danish fans travelling to London.

Tho I do prefer Denmark going further, England is in peaking form heading into the Semis.

Italy - England is the likely finals matchup.

Belgium had no chance of beating Italy. Doesn't the bro code apply anymore?

Figures they use Verdi as background music.

The Vikings have taken London before.

I can't get a live feed on Gumby Theater.

LD Gumby is appearing in the Thames near Whopping Steps. I didn't know where that was so I Google Mapped it, it's actually Wapping Steps in East London. Poor LD would get washed out into the North Sea from there.

Regardless of what happenes I'm going to have a Tuborg in Denmark's honour.

Italy v England looks the likely Finals at The Wembley Stadium. Not since 1966 have England won any major trophy.

The odds are heavily in England's favor, but remember 14 october 2020, Denmark won 1-0 over England at Wembley, with practically the same teams.
