    Gudmundsson territory this. Close. Hungary deserved the draw. Iceland sat back in 2nd half.

    it's getting stupid in this tournament now. once the clock hits 87 minutes you're expecting a goal and surprised if there isn't one

    A draw v Austria wont be easy but will see them finish with three points and a neutral GD.

    Both Republic of Ireland and Sweden look like they'll struggle to get anything more now whilst Slovakia are my other bet to finish on three points and it not be enough to get through.

    Either way be tough still for Iceland

    Good Belgian result and by far the better team on the day. Despite my hatred for our owners and the annoying love in with this Belgian generation, my Scottish (wannabe Irish) and Irish family, they've been p'ing me off with their selective anti English posts during this tournament along with the Irish involvement in our EU vote has p'ed me off too. So f*** Ireland, hope they get knocked out.
  • This is becoming laughable now. Portugal could be 5 or 6 up!

    Hope Austria nick a goal and see out a 1-0 win.

    I reckon Iceland will up their game and beat Austria. Their tactics today were awful 2nd half. They will have to go for it. Hopefully JBG has a good game and it raises his value. That's as long as the money is ringfenced for recruitment. Can just imagine Roly rubbing his hands though.

    JBG has looked fairly anonymous so far, but then he's used to playing with better players around him :smile:
  • If this stays a draw it's Austria who will have to go for it. A draw for Iceland v Austria might be enough for them to go through as a best placed 3rd place side. 3 points and a 0 goal difference could squeeze them through. Also they'll be playing last so they'll know exactly what they need to do.

    I want Portugal to lose these days purely as Ronaldo plays for them. Mind, Austria are limited beyond belief. Who did they cower padt in their group to get here? Pirtugal have left big gaps at the back, but Austria seem to have no vision. I have to admit Portugal have at least gone for the win.
  • Ronaldo is ridiculously greedy at times, men queueing up in the box for a cross and he tries to shoot from 25 yards and its blocked.
  • All to play for in this group in the last round of matches

    They topped their group with 9 wins and 1 draw. The rest of the group were: Russia, Sweden, Montenegro, Liechtenstein and Moldova.

    I can't do anything, I can't score or score.... Portugal should have three points but we are not okay... We're not going to win the Euros the way I played tonight

    This is in my opinion shows an what arrogant mentality I have and we are not going to do anything in this competition
