Wow Ukraine should have scored. That ball was over the line. If they lose now... Riots in the square tonight!

unreal they don't have goal technology. They put a linesmen on the line to cure the problem, and it only makes it worse. How the fuck can you not see that? He was literally square to the line, saw the ball, and didn't even react.

Goal-line technology needs to be in place yesterday.
Agreed. I want England to win but that was awful.
Also, Rooney certainly found his groove as the match progressed.

Good point by the announcers. Both of Ukraine's best chances were offsides..still goal technology is needed.

Hell yeah, at least Sweden are going to get a result and knock the French into a death match with the Spanish. Go down swinging.

I missed that.
So the ball was over? England thought they cleared off the line...no goal?

Yeah, and the worst part is that black dot at the bottom of the picture is the 5th official's head. Thats really his only job.Automatik;1205014 wrote:I missed that.

Yeah I was just going to say that. Didn't they implement the extra official for that EXACT purpose?
I know there are some mixed feelings regarding the line technology, but you'd have to think it will get an even further consideration after this.

They are gonna riot in Ukraine. That blown call was HUGE.
And that Ibra goal was sick. But only 3rd best for me this tourney. Ballotelli is starting to become my favorite over Welbeck. The focus to hit a full volley like that with a defender all over you is insane.

The guy on Ukraine was offsides anyways. So it should have never even gotten that far

Euros always seem to have 1 big run from a team. Czechs are the only team who can make it happen, cause Germany should put the hammer down on Greece...so them.

Does it go winners of the first 2 games play each other and winners of the 2nd 2 games play each other?
Just like a normal bracket?
