Been a crazy Euro already with all the late goals - going to be a really interesting final match day in this group.

Man, I can't remember a tournament with such poor goalkeeping in the first few games. England should be through now.

At halftime, who thought England would be top of the table at full-time?

Yeah this group is wide open now. Anyone can still win it. I would also think England is going to roll with Vardy and Sturridge again up top, looked much more dangerous with them. Rooney again very good in the CM role.

England go through with a draw now

if they beat Slovakia then they and Wales are both through

Wales need to match whatever Slovakia do to guarantee going though

although with 3 points whoever of Wales/Slovakia dont get 1st/2nd could go through as one of 4 best 3rd place teams

I dont think Vardy did much besides score the goal which was a horrible touch from Ash Williams

Id keep 2 strikers but go to Kane/Sturridge and keep Vardy for a potential sub with his speed

regardless though have to go with 2 strikers, the whole team opened up, Alli looked so much better with space

Slovakia and Wales wins in the next match day and England can still go home on time.

^^But just like E=Ng, No Vardy = No Party. Roy can't ignore that.

Not getting warm fuzzies about the match later on. Germany must be better than they were against Ukraine. I'd like to see the following lineup

Muller
Draxler - Ozil - Schurrle
Khedira - Kroos
Hector - Hummels - Boateng - Mustafi
Neuer

Schurrle brings speed, a willingness to take on defenders and isn't afraid to shoot. All of which I feel would be an asset against Poland. Or swap Muller and Schurrle as I'm not the biggest fan of Muller up top

I just felt like everyone on England from Roy on down felt way too good about that win. They didnt blow them out or outclass them, they won by the skin of their teeth off of talent.

"All problems solved!!!"

Yeah. No.

Well they did outchance Wales something like 20-8, but I sort of agree. Both of the goals they scored were pretty damn lucky.

Poland vs Germany should be a fun game to watch. It is the match that I have been waiting for the most because I am a German-born Polak.

Apparently, a big argument happened between Cuortois (sp?) and the Belgium manager, with the former blaming Wilmots for the loss against Italy.

Some speculatio that Mignolet will be in for Belgium's second match.

If that's true Wilmots should be fired yesterday.

And Wales never should've hit paydirt. Hart has to turn that ball aside.
Flattering scoreline really.
