Croatia was out Spain goal or not. They need Ireland to pull off a miracle.
Also, when Spain scores...its fucking beautiful.

That was pretty close to offside there. Won't say it was a bad call, but it was close.

Scored on a semi bike. More of a full volley off a corner. Defender draped all over him, and he gets perfect contact and puts it into the net. It was awesome. Probably not as good as the "black" connection for Englands goal, but it is damn close to goal of the tourney.chicago510;1203571 wrote:Balotelli? Not watching that game.

So Spain go through as C1 and will play D2, while Italy go through as C2 and will play D1.

The goal by Balotelli was ridiculous.

He's an asshole, but I'll give him props.
Nice goal.

If Italy gets through the QTRs, they have a good shot to beat Germany in the semis imo. Italy has had Germany's number for a long time now.

Goal of the tourney so far?
Toss up between Balotelli's and Welbeck's IMO.

Agreed. On sheer execution and skill, I say Ballotelli.Automatik;1204330 wrote:Goal of the tourney so far?

But on improvisation, skill and ability to change what you wrote doing on the fly, I go with Walcott to Welbeck.

Pretty simple scenarios today right? Sweden out. France and England through with tie or win. Ukraine must win. Winning the group would be preferred to avoid Spain.

No goals through 45' in either match. Can Ukraine come up with a stunner in the 2nd half and send England home?

Meanwhile, the Swedes take a lead on France. Not of consequence as to who advances, but it makes it hard for France to win the group now.

What a fail.
Goal-line technology needs to be in place yesterday.
