Justice is done

3-1 Spain on penalties.

Not sure I'd say justice, it was a dodgy red that allowed them to bus the remaining game. They were fairly average before that. I reckon Ukraine could give them a good run.

Fantastic game just now, Italy look great and the winner of this should win the tournament.

Different eyes, Different minds, Different opinions.

I think it would have been a travesty if Spain hadn't gone through there but we are all entitled to an opinion so no one is right or wrong mate.

Appreciated the Ukraine reference 

[Jute]

That was a brilliant game between the two best teams in the Tournament. Italy should go on to win this now but injury to Spinazzola could be an issue. Doku for Belgium looked a player and didn’t deserve to be on the losing side.

What was going on with the goalies moving around loads and putting the penalty takers off so much.

Amazed the ref didn't pull up the Spanish keeper for moving around like waupun gangnam style.

As long as you don't leave the line, it's completely fine.

Czech’s back into the game against Danes  with another Schick goal. 

[Jute]

Denmark win 3rd quarter final 2-1. Playing  winner of Ukraine v England in semi finals.

If outfield players can 'stagger' runs them goalies can move about. The fact its possible for keepers to be sent off in a penalty shootout if they save one after stepping off the line, plus the kick gets retaken, yet outfield players dont get booked or even spoken to for stopping dead b4 kicking the ball is a joke. In such an instance id like to see that outfield player booked and their penalty cancelled

Guy Mowbray and jermaine jenas are fucking awful.  I've hated Mowbray for a loooong time but adding captain mediocre on Co comms makes him exponentially worse.

I stuck them on mute or I was putting my boot through the TV.

Ally mccoist has his faults but loved his 'id forgotten there was another game on tonight' comment after another bought of england chat by his co commentator in the denmark game.

Possibly my own personal bias but seem to recall hearing 'these two are playing for the right to play england'

Just give them the fucking trophy and let's all move on 

[HaarDon]

Expected win by the guffs against a shite defence of Ukraine.(their no. 22 especially)

Let's not mark Kane eh?

Come on Denmark.

Early goal by them at Wembley will shut the support up.

Engerlund get the worst team away from home. Typical bullshit.

Brilliant first 25 minutes between Italy and Spain. Some great football by both teams.

Got a bit cagy now

Almost as soon as I typed that it had been a great start.

Absolutely jinxed it. Just rejoined the second half after my commute to work.  How's it been so far? Was absolutely cringe hearing the England fans in the stadium sing "it's coming home" 

[Jute]

Danny Mills talking up England’s chances of beating both teams sending me into a rage. Morata with a brilliant equaliser.

[Kowalski]

You’d like to think both these sides could beat England but I do think England would probably do better against this Spanish side who are pretty lightweight up front. 

[Jute]

Penalties it is.

[RicoS321]

Cracking game. Nobody held back.

[Jute]

Two poor penalties to start.

[Jute]

Italy through 4-2. Morata missing another penalty for Spain.

[BigAl]

After the free flowing football of earlier in the tournament, Italy seem to have reverted to type and become fairly defensive which is a shame as they were really entertaining and a joy to watch at the outset of the competition.
