Yeah what a long wait. Good start to the tournament for me at least! 🇮🇹

The Erickson incident today was one of the scariest stuff I’ve seen in over 30 years of watching soccer . At least the out looks much better than similar ones 

Yes, still surprised the broadcast never cut - could have been super devastating had that unfolded differently in front of everyone!

I am surprised they payed today . The Danish players were def not in the right state of mind and it showed ( sloppy goal, poor pk, etc. )

Same. Apparently, they played again at the request of both teams but feels like the better thing to do would have been to postpone.

Damn !! What a day .

Spain vs Croatia : one of those games that happens once a year,

France vs Switzerland : hold my beer . 

Insane for sure, and that’s after Netherlands exiting yesterday too

Germany going home. guess it was gonna be an interesting game, somebody had to go home, then or England.
Im not even gonna mention my home team....suckers went home after first round

it has been a fun tourney so far!!! I am gonna miss it . 

At least there is a relatively shorter wait between major tournaments with the World Cup being next year 

England with a convincing win against Germany, but I dont see them taking home the trophy at the end. (even though they could have home feild if they make it to the semis/finals)

Next up on 7/2, Spain should overcome the Swiss Squad with relative ease.   The Italy vs Belgium match should prove to be a good battle.

Should be a great wknd for soccer between Euro20 quarter finals and the Copa America quarter finals.  Too bad the Copa matches wont be televised anywhere.

Hard to see England not making the final now as they have an easy draw.

Yup, Italy won, they were unbeatable for some time. 

Southgate got his tactics wrong, and even more his pk takers. Italy was the best team in the tourney,. not a team I usually support, but they earned it . Mancini has been phenomenal 

'Youngest player ever to attempt a PK in the Euro Finals.'  Then proceeds to choke under pressure and miss his PK.  Phenomenal finals to watch, tough way for England to loose on a missed PK, @ home to boot.

Messi finally got his International Trophy winning the Copa.  Very interested to see where he and Ronaldo end up signing.

Not so fast my Friend!  Still not certain, but looks like his exit from Barca is in the works.

'Barcelona president Joan Laporta says no one bigger than the club; negotiations at end' 

 

Also, its sounds like Paris St.-Germaine is looking to land Ronaldo.  Neymar, Mbappe, Ronaldo, Ramos, heaps of talent and could be fun squad to watch.

 

Edit: Just after I posted, I saw this...

'PSG already started direct contacts with Messi'

 

OH MY

I think it is a bluff on Barca part to force La Liga’s hand into allowing them to register him . But I’ve been more wrong than right before 😂😂

2 year deal with an 3r yr option. I have yet to see the financials, but he was making 70m Euro base w/out bonuses, so will be interesting what they paid.

Also just read Mbappe is in Talks with Real Madrid. If he leaves, C.Ronaldo wants PSG. If Mbappe stays, Ronaldo looks to be interested in Los Blancos to team up with his former manager Carlo Ancelotti.  The free agent transfer window closes Aug 31.
