Danes 1 up already

10th minute
Ball out of play & a minutes applause for Christian Eriksen

Will it be the 10th or the 11th minute

Good comeback by Belgium , they look quite strong .

Its between
Belgium France Italy & England for me .

Dont think the Germans are quite good enough .

Italy have easily looked the best team. Feel like Belgium’s defence is weak and will be found out in the bigger games.

If we win our group ( which i expect us to ) we will play the runners up in group F who I think may be Germany or Portugal , I hope I'm wrong but I can see us going out of this competition at the last 16 stage ☹

Maybe Croatia let England win to avoid that?

There are a few ropey teams, but the overall standard of the sides is far higher than in a World Cup. Think there are 6 better sides than England (Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, Portugal and possibly the Netherlands). We’re absolutely better off coming 2nd for the round of 16, but it’s a murderers row wherever we finish.

1st (possible route) Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, Final
2nd (possible route) Slovakia, France, Belgium, Final
3rd (possible route) Belgium, Italy, France, Final

Belgium's second goal was a thing of beauty
