Russia did well so far so good. Maybe will do just as good as last time, reaching the semi.

Been watching enough to think England might be on course to win the continental luckiness championships . Not looked very impressive so far ( some glimpses to be fair ) & topped the group "comfortably .

Ye, England certainly did not look good, but still managed to get top group finished. Russia started by destroying Czech Republic by 4:1. Now they are out and Czech finished top of the group. Go figure  |

I would say that England have met expectations by getting this far and that anything else would be considered a surprise...

I was a bit suprised to see Andy Carroll removed for Rooney, would have thought Carroll's size would be the reason to stay in, and that Rooney would replace Welbeck... As important as set-pieces are in the game, Carroll seemed to be a more reasonable start over Welbeck.... France's underwhelming performance vs. Sweden really played into England's favor... I'm sure they'd rather face Italy than Spain anyday....

i reckon it will be a spain v germany final, the spanish are always great to watch, and the germans are strong as ever. Im hoping england beat italy, but cant see either of us having a chance against germany....

It's tradition for us to go out on penalties & we are a country of custom & convention . To beat Italy would be an achievement , Germany a near miracle unless we really up our game ( or employ the Paquiao Bradley judges as referees  ) . Think Spain V Germany is the most likely scenario to , a good match for the neutral probably. |

Maybe I should've . Wonder if there's any way England can actually get good at shootouts ( won 1 ever apparently ) ? |

Italy getting the goal ahead should liven things up a bit hopefully
