Dunno how you pick a 26 man squad with no fit left back in it either.

That is especially s.tupid.

Scotland were slapped.

[BodiesInFlight]

Yeah they went into the game kilts up and cheeks parted

Morata and Fabian with goals so far against Croatia. Nice bit of footwork on Fabian’s score.

Feeling better about my pick of the Spanish, the young, dynamic wingers give them a different element than they've had for a while

[ShoulderRoll]

The Azzurri are up next.

[Sparked_26]

Croatia were awful I thought.

But we are so used to them being to overperform as a small nation.

They have no cutting edge at all and I don't know who their right winger was but he's the type you watch and think...f.uck me. How has he got here?

:50 seconds into the match and Albania scores a goal on Italy.

[Clegg]

That must be a contender for worst throw-in of all time. Just threw the ball into space in his own box for Albania to run onto.

Italy looking settled now though, got it to 2-1 quickly rather than any panic. Albania need to tighten up.

What I love most about Euro2024 is the sheer hypocrisy on display.

Dutch, French, German, and England sports fans are majority right-wing and as such hate immigrants, Muslims, brown/black people, and they decry the how their white population is getting replaced.

Yet, half of their teams are made up of black people and they can't help but cheer, because they know without those black players, their teams would be utter garbage and would struggle with teams like Serbia or Poland.

It must hurt them inside to know this reality, that if their squads were "pure blood", they'd be reduced to rubble.

Why don't they practice what they preach and stop watching the games if their teams are not representative of the population? Because they're utter frauds.
