    That’s gotta be a VAR penalty surely 
    Got very lucky I think.

    Interesting given the  England result. Of course French performance better but just provides tournaments / one off matchws are different

    With Hungary playing Germany in the final game, this group is wide open still

    That group is wide open. Makes the next match very interesting

    Brilliant point for Hungary in the highest quality group. France get an away point and beating Germany see's them in a comfortable position.

    For anyone who thinks you need to use arms and elbows when leaping watch Ronaldo's headers and he just leaps with his arms by his side and still gets above defenders.

    Very open now.  France will qualify but could be in any of the 3 spots.

    Thinking about all the different permutations makes my head hurt 🤭 I have no idea who I want to win this game

    And that is why Southgate is so negative. Because teams cannot afford to go behind at this level.
    Exactly. This has been a tough tournament for some of the bigger teams already. France have drawn with Hungary, Spain couldn't get anything past Sweden, and the floodgates only opened for Portugal when they managed to sneak a deflected goal in after Hungary had had a goal disallowed. Goals can be hard to come by in this tournament and being too loose can kill you

    I just don't want Portugal to win, or it'll make it reasonably certain them and France will finish top 2.

    Draw or a Germany win opens it up a bit more.

    I think Portugal will win though.

    Portuguese are at 6's & 7's at the back at the moment.

    Pace of this game is insane. Compare it to last night and it’s crazy.

    Brilliant punditry by Lee Dixon when he said that Ronaldo wouldn't mind the German pressure as he would be waiting to catch them on the break, 2 minutes before he did it

    France 4 points from 2 games, the same as England.

    36 years old. That's his 44th goal of the season for club and country!

    They've played away to Germany and then in front of a 67k crowd in Hungary.

    Hardly comparable to our 2 home games.

    On the other hand it would mean that Germany have to beat Hungary to avoid coming 4th! And even then 3 points might not be enough to go through. Similarly Hungary would need to win that game as well to get 4 points

    The bloke is just incredible. 36 years old very few injuries throughout a long career. I sublime athlete undoubtedly. Still something about him that just annoys me lol

    That would be a big ask.

    And Sam Matterface is a bloody dreadful commentator. From the Clive Tyldesley school of glibness.
