    Sorry @UKRAINEFAN, biggest country in Europe or not, YOU'RE GOING DOWN!

    Or not. England doesn't have a very good history with these things....

    Wow, Ukraine playing on ABC today! I bet that's a first. The last time I paid much attention to the soccer team Shevchenko was playing, not coaching. You're probably right about them going down, it's seems to be a big surprise they have got this far. https://www.espn.com/soccer/uefa-eu...ade-ukraine-the-shock-contenders-at-euro-2020

    It was interesting that the star player got into trouble for speaking Russian in an interview after the game.

    If the pattern continues, England will beat Denmark 8-0!

    I feel that way in every sport unless the sport ends with a tie

    I can't even watch penalty shootouts when I don't care who wins. God KNOWS what it's like being in one. I still think they should just keep playing until everyone drops.

    Gotta say I can see England losing to Denmark because they get caught looking ahead to Italy. And if they beat Denmark, I just can't see them beating Italy. Please God let neither game go to penalties.

    My daughter, who is a soccer goalie, loved the shootout today in the Italy/spain game. She had to leave before the one over the weekend. I think it is more stressful on mom and dad when she is in a shootout then on her.

    I thought the aussies were the best. How come i never see them in things? Didnt they invent aussie rules football aka man’s soccer? Not that wimpy euro soccer stuff where they flop and shit….

    Rugby rules. The rest aRe just children's games.

    Rooting against England is redundant. We shoot OURSELVES in the foot, thank you very much.

    Phew! If I'm honest, that shouldn't really have been a penalty. And Schmeichel saved it! But I'll take it. Now to lose convincingly to Italy in the final! (They're on a 33-match unbeaten streak...)

    That was a great game, bummer for that goalie he made a great save and it was a weak foul call. We were hoping for another set of PK's .
