    But defibs aren't magic they don't restart a fully arrested heart, they stop and restart a severely irregular heartbeat, which can be the last stage before full arrest. Cpr training is just as important, there is nothing worse than waiting for an ambulance and hearing the words "No shock advised", every two minutes whilst nobody else feels confident or willing to help on the compressions.
    They need to teach CPR and the heimlich manoeuvre(for choking) at schools. Not difficult and can save a life.

    So 3 games in, Italy decent second half against a timid Turkey that didn't turn up, Denmark Finland can't really be assessed for obvious reasons and a decent but unspectacular Belgium v an absent Russia.

    Portugal, Germany, Spain and France to play yet but will be interesting to see if we can mark our stall out tomorrow in a tough fixture.


    A bit harsh on the Welsh to just forget about them... 😉

    Ha ha good point!....only half watched it and it slipped my mind.

    I've said it for years that first aid should be on the national curriculum at schools. Once you learn how to do CPR, you don't forget (a bit like riding a bike, and there's room on the school calendar for cycling proficiency ffs), even though hopefully you will never need it.

    Supporting North Macedonia in this, frequently visit the Salonika Battlefields just over the Greek border around Lake  Doiran and the Struma Valley, they are lovely people and love their football, Skjope is a great party city as well.

    went to that region when i was a teenager. (a crap version of travelling during a gap year - it wasn't a gap year, i was just unemployed.) Had no money but the people in the Balkans were so nice and put themselves out to make sure i had somewhere to stay. And yeah, they love their football.

    Was supposed to be at this game!

    Not a fan of teams unnecessarily wearing their away kit in a major tournament, it’s rife at this Euros

    Good luck North Macedonia, it's a shame that east, West and south Macedonia didn't join up with you  :/

    (bit of so called beer mat history from someone who failed at history) It was only recently that they changed their name to North Macedonia rather than just Macedonia. This is due to an ancient area of Greece which was known and was controlled by people known as the Macedonians. in parts of north Greece they actually refer to themselves as Macedonians. 

    I could go on but Austria just scored and tbh i don't know a huge amount about it.

    I think people are so keen to be known as “Macedonians” so they can claim heritage from Alexander the Great, who came from that region.

    ahh, i do know that as well. which is another reason why the Greeks were against them having that name.

    the most confusing thing is that they are abbreviated to MKD on ITV. Maybe its obvious but i'm trying to work out where they came to that abbreviation?

    I assume at this point Goran Pandev is essentially the king of North Macedonia, can’t be any player playing for any team in the Euros that are such a legend for their country.

    What a story. Pandev the 37 year old scores his 38 goal for North Macedonia, who were once known as Macedonia.
    Pandev played in a match against David Seaman 20 years ago and also played when the Old Queen Mother was alive.

    Not a lot of people know that; not a lot of people want to know that !
