Well, bugger me.

Have to say the team who finishes second in Group B (probz Portugal, I guess) will fancy their chances against the Czechs.

Jerry to smash Greece. Bit of needle in that game I'd imagine.

Thrilled tbh. Well done Greece, about time they had something to cheer about.

Done bloody well to get through considering the poor luck they had in the first two games.

Oh damn the thinly veiled finagelling to get an host country through to the next round, with the oh-so-fairly drawed teams, didn't seem to work.

I'm just amazed that he was available for this game. He's been booked 5 times in the 6 European Championship games he's played.

Yeah I will never understand why decisions like that can't be reviewed. Complete nonsense.

I mean after the game FTR, not proposing DRS for footy

Yeah, plenty of tensions between the two. Angela Merkel is the devil incarnate to a lot of Greeks. Will be hilarious if Greece somehow dump them out, but I'll eat my hat if that happens.

I think there's a place in football for a DRS type system tbh.

Nah, credit to Jerry. We had to give him a slap, but he gave it a lash.

Another good thing that has come out of today is that Russia going out has prevented Arshavin from making any additional performances which may have made Wenger doubt his decision to get rid. If anything, his showing today should have hopefully motivated Monsieur to get shot of him ASAP.
