That was not a football match, it was a war.

Unlike the Turks, the Austrians stuck to the game plan and it nearly paid off. The offside was 50/50, I would have allowed the goal to stand, Austria would have advanced. Once in extra time, the Azzurri used the strength of their midfield to decide the match. Although Locatelli missed his assignment on Kaljdzic on the Austrian goal. My respect for David Alaba has never been higher, he is a true Marichal of the pitch. The Azzurri's Euro adventure will end in the Quarters, htye wont have recovered enough.

Juve made a mistake bringing back Max Allegri, they should have waited another week and hired Franco Foda.

Arnatouvic was definitely offside however close that call was. Austria did give Italy a run for their money, and were unlucky to lose.

David Alaba is a beast, Bayern are going to miss him this upcoming season - irreplaceable.

Several of Austria's players developed in the Primavera, they were ready. As for Portugal vs Belgium, the Flemish will have to get the jump with an early goal. The longer it remains scoreless the more it favours Portugal...and the GOAT will eventually take over. Hope it's a slobberknocker like yesterday match.

Hungary coach Marco Rossi is feuding with The GOAT. At the turn of the last decade of the 20th Century, Sampdoria's holding midfielders were Rossi and Graeme Souness. 😨

Stunning !!! I was sure the Dutch would've won. It wasn't even up for discussion. Apparently these 2 teams have a history of going at each other. Players need to understand that there is VAR, Delight fucked up just like Chiellini used his arm. The Cecks missed a few goals. But shit happens. They're going against the Danes, the Danes will beat them, the way things are going....but you never know

Porca Troia!

Apart from Leo Bonucci, who played his best match against Austria, this has been a disastrous tourney for Juventus defenders.

The Dutch had the fastest team in the tourney, I expected them to reach the semis at least. It looked to me like Silhavy was better prepared than de Boer.

DE Licht should have let the forward have a chance of a goal. Better to be behind 1 goal with 11 men.

Caldwell was TFC's second Captain after Torsten Frings.

Janine is doing a remarkable job, good on TSN for bringing her in.

The Fashionista got into it with Pepe, I expected nothing less. Italy vs Belgium.

Calhanoglu went to Inter. His price goes up with each match, Mino Raiola will probably take over negotiations. His latest client is Erling Haaland.

Portuguese were dirty as hell, they kept hammering Eden Hazard that is in fact starting to come back. That pig of Pepe is lucky he didn't get a red. Lukaku was starting to go after him, after pepe's yellow card. Hopefully he won't be back. The Portuguese did play well the last half of hour, they kept going at it. Now Hazard and De Bruyne are maybe benched. Based on they way belgium played today italy may have a chance. I gotta say Ronaldo is always clean.

Tommorow Spain Croatia, Crotia is no pushovers although Peresic is out with covid. Sweden is going win against Ucraine.

Nothing is predictable, the Swiss have fought back against the French. 3-3 going into extra time.

The French should prevail but their Achilles Heel has been exposed.
