Shocked to hear about Eriksen. Great that he is OK.

I watched the Italy-Turkey game yesterday but will likely only watch the late pool games due to the time difference.

Sounds like he had a massive cardiac event and needed CPR. Reports suggest he is stable. Super scary

It looks like I'll start work late, tomorrow morning. I might wear an orange outfit, too.

Oh, shit, that brings back memories...
last time I watched England play Croatia in the Euros (I think)- was in an Irish pub in Quito, full of English backpackers, and I vowed to drink a bottle of wine for each Croatian goal.
2007.
I keep my promises.
Drunk.

Scary but great to see he's OK

Italy looked very slick on Friday night.

We got lucky against Switzerland. Have to beat Turkey on Wednesday for any chance of progressing.

Lucky. You were crap save the saved header and the goal. Switzerland always lack the killer instinct. Don’t know what the Swiss team would look like without the Balkan’s war…

Stargazer

Phew. The men in orange beat Ukraine 3 - 2, but it was closer than it should have been. They let them back in after leading 2 -0.

Patrick Shick scores a goal from a shot from halfway for the Czech Republic against Scotland. Incredible.

Against the run of play to be fair

Scotland have been really unlucky / missing a quality finisher / thwarted by great goalkeeping

KiwiMurph

@mikethesnow the replays don't pain a great picture for the Scottish goalie.

What the hell is he doing near halfway?

Collapsed and required CPR?

France does enough against Die Mannschaft winning 1-0 from a Hummels own goal. A huge game for Germany against Portugal next.

@bovidae talk about the group of death…

Based on the 2 games, I'd pick Portugal over Germany.

France still favourites but they weren't a well-oiled machine by any stretch.

Bones

Picked up France in the work sweepstake so pretty happy with that. Cest magnifier
