    Thoroughly enjoyed that, just riles me that every other team nowadays tries to play Pep-ball around the back and sends me soundly to sleep. Most of football has lost its entertainment, but not today

    Can you remember when the opening group games used to be boring, turgid bore fests...?

    I read an article the other day that Spain's win over Croatia was the first time in 136 games where Spain haven't had the greater percentage of possession and that their manager is taking a different approach.
    Please let it be true! Tiki taka was and is an abomination.

    Game of the tournament so far. Ours probably the most boring. Turkey were inches away from 2 nill, chalked off for offside and then 1 all not long after.

    Match of the tournament so far.
    Fantastic to see two teams playing with freedom and positivity.
    Proper game of end to end football.
    Quality.

    This game was incredible. Just one of them completely random games that you would never watch outside of a tournament.

    Similar to Cameroon - Serbia in the last World Cup.

    I thought Spain were great when they were winning everything but it was once they lost their strikers Torres & Villa that they went dull & famously played a 4-6-0 formation.
