Group E: Spain, Sweden, Poland, Slovakia

[Vacamion]

 

Sweden v Spain. 

 

It truly is the battle of the hot female fans being lingered over by the cameraman.

I can see you've never played in goal.

I have. And can.

I can also appreciate it's not always the keeper's fault when a deflection happens so close to goal to take it away from where you were diving...

This Swedish bus-parkery so far is either

 

a) quite foolhardy

 

or

 

b) a stroke of tactical genius, borrowed from the first half of Man City v Leicester City last season.

Just wanted to say that I am stealing the phrase "bus-parkery" and wanted to make sure Vacamion was given proper credit.

Where's Zlatan?

 

Could have sworn he came out of international retirement and got picked for the squad.

 

Or maybe I dreamt it...

Injured.

Good to hear in commentary that this guy is getting a game:

 

 

[PhillippaT]

Ooh.

[foxy boxing]

Sweden could do with a Vardy type player up front if they're just relying on the counter all night 😜

[Koke]

This isn't bus parking. It's worse than that. . Sweden have made 34 passes in 25 mins. ****ing terrible. Spain aren't exactly world beaters to be approching it this way.

You're having a decent game though at 8...

What else do you expect when you're not a great attacking side playing against a pacy passing high pressing team like Spain 

[Vacamion]

 

I'm almost beginning to grudgingly admire the obdurate anti-football Sweden have brought this evening.

 

Vogons, reading their poetry. 

 

Can they qualify with 3 x 0-0 draws?

 

 

 

[PhillippaT]

A flat-pack-4 - for when IKEA do football teams

[Finnegan]

I'm sure I say this every time I watch him play but Alvaro Morata is one of the top five biggest frauds in European football. 

 

Absolute bobbins. 

[Nalis]

Seb Larsson still starting for Sweden, fvckin hell....

[Super_horns]

Oh dear Morata !

Bad miss .

[Vacamion]

 

I would have laughed my baws off if that had gone in.

 

So close.

 

 

[PhillippaT]

OOOOH... Lucky Spain.

Along with Timo Werner

If there is a person of a certain nationality in the studio and that nation are playing in the match they are covering, why do BBC and ITV wa nk off that team so much? Happens in every major tournament.

I expect international footballers to string 5 passes together in the opposition half. Spain are not the scary world beaters they used to be. Its actually quite cowardly by the Swedish coach to set them up this way.

To patronise that person of a certain nationality to avoid being accused of exclusion, sexism or racism.
