    Looks like Italy and France should play in their own competition and leave the rest to fight it out for second  place. 

    Would save a lot of time watching very average football. 
    Wouldn't the rest be fighting it out for 3rd place?

    Looks like Harry Maguire is well ahead of schedule. All 26 trained today.

    Great news... Give him and Henderson minutes against the Czech Republic ready for the KO rounds

    Dont fancy risking each other in what could be a feisty game against the Scots

    I think Holland's Daley Blind may have the same thing and still plays (in this tournament even)

    Excellent news. 
    I still don't expect him to start against Scotland but providing we win and qualify he may well get a game against the check Czech republic

    Did they use VAR to overrule an offside and give a corner? Either way Ukraine score 1-0

    Might get a few minutes if we're comfortable enough against the Scots just to ease him back in but the Czech game will definitely be a better option if he's going to play for any substantial period.

    Any of those without a match ticket should not have been allowed to board the train in Scotland. 
    I can't believe it would have been that hard to police.

    Its amazing how confident Zinchenko is for Ukraine. I wonder how much it'd take for someone to buy him from City and play him in Midfield?

    I expect many of them wont have a ticket and I also expect more will turn up throughout the day and tomorrow.

    Yes I expect you are correct. 
    But with all the rules regarding corona that we have to abide with I think it's wrong to allow this to happen.

    You’ve never watched a major tournament before have you?
    Or many Charlton games either I’d expect.

    Admittedly, I've never watched many Charlton games in a major international tournament but if I had it would probably have been significantly less boring than Spain v Sweden.

    Not sure why my humble opinion that this competition has been a bit lacklustre compared to previous ones, provokes such vitriol. 

    Thanks for your concern and apparent intimate knowledge of my football spectating CV, in any case. 

    Being patronised on CL is a rare privilege.

    I hope the referee trained for this game by refereeing some 6 year olds playing in the school playground, to prepare him for some of the antics this afternoon!

    Macedonia look knackered. Got the goal, had another 3-4 mins of pressure and since then look tired.

    By refereeing in CONMEBOL that's basically what he did. :-)

    That shouldn't be a penalty based on the new VAR rules. Referee has messed one up there IMO.

    The var system applied here is so much better than in the Prem. Surely they've got to look at this...thinking for 2 years time when it could directly affect us 😉
