    I'm satisfied with the Netherland's display, they controlled the game well and played smoothly. Better finishing and they would have had a comfortable lead in the first half already. Really weird how they suddenly let in 2 goals that quickly, they weren't shaky at the back. I think it has more to do with sudden lapse in concentration.

    They could perhaps try to not play the ultimate one touch football all the time, sometimes they could try to just get the ball wide and then a simple cross. With De Liegt back this team will have one more leader and a world class defender. Even though Depay wanted to score so much (and lost the ball in the process), it was good to see that the goal scoring doesn't only depend on him, perhaps it eases the pressure on him.
    Yeah I made that comment at halftime. First half he was 5, second half a perfect 10. I guess they mentioned to him at halftime that they did play I orange.

    It was an okay match but it was just Ukraine. Playing like that against the likes of France will probably end up in humiliation

    Good games so far, so proud of Finland.

    And glad Eriksen is okay. Scary stuff.

    Northern Europe, so nice! Also, note the subtle dig at the defence from one defence minister to another. I thought that was pretty funny.

    Excellent work there from the Czechs, that second goal was a beauty.

    Hope we can finish the job off on Friday and dump them out.
    Ex-Mod. Technically retired, they just won't let me quit.

    Own goal?, man that’s rough on both of them, one beats two men to score; the other does all he can and gets an unlucky bounce off the post after a save.

    Deja vu from last time Poland played in the World or was it Euro cup? They also ruined their chances with an own goal if i remember correctly.

    Old Polish WC/Euro group stage plan still alive and strong:

    1. First match
    2. Everything all nothing match
    3. For honour match
    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    Spain looking good so far but Sweden barely holding on really.

    Berg should be on trial for high treason, once this is over.

    Not sure I feel it but the reffing in Spain/Sweden feels lopsided in Spanish favor. Not sure it really is just feels that way.

    Boring soccer by Sweden but understandable.

    Second half Spain dropped it in my opinion. Marcus Berg out. Never let him in again after that wasted chance.

    Like, no Swedish player is ever going to get a better chance against Spain ever.

    TBH it's funny how there's virtually no expectations about this team anymore, and they still manage to find new ways to disappoint.

    Well at least they qualified!

    Whatever happens here, Sweden's defence in this second half has been phenomenal. What a save there on that header oh my god.

    Sweden barely had an offense but still had 3 nice chances.
    Sweden will be glad with 1 point the defense is solid.
    I think that considering Spain had 75+% of the ball the entire game they underperformed. Rather big too.
    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    What an incredible game for the swedes. Disciplined, controlled, composed. Not bad at all. And ironically, they had two of the biggest chances in the game really.

    It's huge for them! A good chance to qualify now.

    To think that defence had Lindelof in it.
