Author Topic: Euro 2020 (2021) Chat & Final MATCH THREAD (Read 523978 times)

Have these three dickheads (and Cesc) just been banging on about England for half an hour?

Any danger of chatting about the upcoming game? Or tournament in general?

Has Fabregas had Botox or something, he looks really odd.

Fuck me Lineker is so biased he makes Martin Tyler sound like a fucking scouser.

Got Eurovision vibes there.

The sun shining down adds to the beauty as Rome is just a stunning City.

Rustu Recber, what a goalkeeper.

Remember that Nihat goal, 3-2 against the Czechs I think. Great match.

UEFA's free live youtube stream for the Opening Ceremony (in case anyone has had enough of Lineker, Jenas and co already):-

Great match. Boss tournament. Turkey, Croatia and Russia were all really entertaining in Euro 2008

Thanks for that.

I see Nesta's lost his looks. He used to be a dreamboat.

That 2008 tournament was fantastic. Really memorable for me. Turkey's win against Switzerland was last-minute also. Then the deciding match against the Czechs. I think it if had ended in a draw, it would've gone to penalties as both sides had the same points and GD. But Turkey stormed back from 2-0 down.

Then the crazy late goals in the Croatia match and then conceding to Lahm in stoppage time in the Semis.

Russia and Hiddink's masterclass against the Dutch, who were so fun in the group stage.

All culminating in Torres scoring the goal in the final.

Fun tournament.

Yep, watching some of those clips, particularly of our Torres scoring the winner in the final brought back some great memories.

Probably my favourite ever international tournament that. The perfect 16 team format, lots of great football, underdogs springing some surprises, Spain winning it with a host of Liverpool players in the squad and best of all, no England circus.

Yep, best tournament for me as well. Can't deny England not qualifying meant that there was more focus on the football than there otherwise would have been, which made it all the better.

Definitely my favourite Euros. Just the right amount of teams. No England meant no circus either.

Is that Mina Rzouki the one who said Salah was no better than Cuadrado?

If anyone finds a decent stream for this showing BBC coverage I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Watch it on the PC via BBC website, or are you not in the UK?

Nessun Dorma's just put me right in the mood. Good shout that for whoever chose it.

Let's see this Italian team then.

This is why you give Italy the opening ceremony.

Imagine Wembley playing Jerusalem

Macphisto80 · « **Reply #75 on:** June 11, 2021, 07:49:39 pm »

The Italians know how to do it.

Brilliant opening ceremony! Normally they are a bit boring but that was great

This shit following that sensational performance of Nessun Dorma. A shame.
