Hah Elmander is crap=ah!

Kryogen?

ollie1

Elmander should have buried that.

Mars Bar

Oh dear!

kryogen

Fair play to the Ukraine, fully deserved win here

Nuri Sahin

What a flick by Ibra to create the chance.

noodler

I despise this falling down lark to waste the last few minutes.

Rekop dog

Ibra has been Sweden's best player by a considerable distance!

Too little of it in this match though

Jimmy Iovine

So close from Melberg.

kryogen

Cant believe they even got another chance, never gonna happen

Nuri Sahin

My word..

Mars Bar

Jayz Sweden with another attempt. That was a tougher one though...

adox

What are Ukraine doing? Two v two at the back. :eek:

kryogen

Olssen has been so poor

kryogen

Unbelievable, im done with the bets tillt he knock outs

Turned into a decent game in the end. First half was dull, probably the most boring of the tournament so far! The second half more than made up for it.

Professional Griefer

Been a brilliant game. Delighted for Ukraine.

Mars Bar

Could you imagine the celebrations if Ukraine won out the competition?!

noodler

Biggest smile I have had after a game anyway.

kryogen

Sheva 2-1 Ibra

adox

Delighted for Ukraine tbh and Sheva getting both goals the icing on the cake.

In with a real shout now for a quarter final place. Shoot out with England in the last game for a QF place.

steelcityblues

Delighted for Sheva.

What did ye think of the England game lads? Thought it wasnt great and didnt like the stadium/pitch. The current one for the Ukraine/Sweden game is much more appealing. For the last 20 mins both sides looked settled for a point each. France really could have pushed on I felt. England were dogged but pretty poor up front. Young and Welbeck were pretty poor as was Oxlade Chamberlain. Didnt really threaten going forward. Really surprised that Defoe was brought on. Dont rate him at all. Carroll would have been a much better threat.Walcott should have been introduced a lot earlier. His pace would have been a big danger. Parker is decent defensively but offers nothing going forward. Anytime he gets the ball he stops and passes the ball back. Henderson, we will say no more.

Fell asleep during the England game, had to get up early today.:o

Young was poor enough but Wellbeck and the Ox played well I thought.

G.K.

Konoplyanka will be some player.

They were England's best players by a country mile.

Shevchenko, what a man.

Better than Sneijders pass?

He was probably the best player on the pitch. Almost everything he did was threatening. Fought hard for his team.

I'd give it to Ibra, just.

Kinda a shame that they didn't start with Wilhelmsson (sp?)

And a shame Elmander wasnt fit enough to start, he and Ibra have a good understanding

Yep, but Sneijder's pass is up there as well for sure.

I dunno. Felt Welbeck didnt really threaten. Worked hard but I suppose he didnt have much help. Oxlade showed flashed but really not enough. Think they would be better with Milner, who is only fair, on the left on Walcott on the right. Gerrard was good I thought. Boring game though.

I was glad not to hear that dirge of a band playing the music from The Great Escape over and over again very badly at England's match for a change.

Nearly as bad as the fecking vuvuzelas.

The England Supporters Band was unable to play at the team's first 2012 European Championship game after having their instruments confiscated at the stadium in Ukraine.

Band leader John Hemmingham said Monday's match against France was the first time the group had not played at an England game in 16 years.

The Sheffield-based band said it was working with the Football Association (FA) to resolve the issue.

The FA said it did not want to comment.

just thinking there must be a huge chance of english representation in the Final, judging by the refereeing so far, Howard Webb stands out head and shoulders above the rest.

G.K.

No he doesn't. As good as Webb was, Victor Kassai has been the best ref so far.

Andy Carroll to get the nod for Sweden game.

Ox dropped, and Young to go wide.

I would love it. I will support England every minute that Andy is on the pitch.

I thought Hodgson would play him against Sweden.

Reminds me of Euro 92!

If Sweden get beat 6-0 by England, they will be poorer than us.

I'm still banking on Holland to lose their last game 8-0 and spare our blushes.
