Greece have just had a goal disallowed now !
edit: looks like my prediction of cards in the Prediction League may be a tad low
(as it happens does 2 yellows [and the subsequent red] count as 2 or 4?)

Someone must have got onto him at half time because he's done a decent enough job in the second half. Poland's keeper had to walk for denying a goalscoring opportunity.
If anything Poland should be more cheesed off that they should have been out of sight at half time.
Full Time 1:1

I hadn't noticed you said that, but I've already made a clarification in relation to this. Any player receiving a red card "earns" two points, whether it be as a straight red or as two yellows (in lieu of the red). So the first game is worth six points; one straight red (2), one double yellow (2), two single yellow (1+1).

"Webb" and "Poll" aren't the same thing
Would still be treated as two points. It has to be that way to be honest.

Definitely Poll (Wiki article)

Does Beglin not think Russia are a good team or something? Both teams have been attacking well but he's twice said something suggesting it's been rather one-sided in the Czechs' favour so far! Russia have certainly had the chances to justify a goal.

I think we know who will be top of Group A at 2200!
Russia are better than their 16-1 suggests. That 3-0 over Italy was no accident.

Dzagoev has played well for them (He'll move to a bigger European team sooner or later) and surprisingly Arshavin, maybe giving Wenger something to think about?

Despicable from Nani. Should have been booked for simulation
(certainly a foul initially but no need to dive like he'd been mortally wounded)

Feels like this Portugal team spends more time on the deck than on their feet

An interesting analogy from Herr Löw:
"The European Championship is like a Formula 1 race without the warm-up. You have to make a good start and get off the grid straight away."

That Croatian number 5 should really be in the referee's book by now

Jelavic has made it 1-2... and in doing so has taken the first step on his journey to hopefully winning me £40 as Golden Boot winner 
Problems from the Croatia fans with smoke firecracker things?

Not too bad so far!
However, Welbeck hasn't impressed me so far. Personally, I would have started with Defoe up front, as he's the closest we have to a natural goal scorer in the squad.

Unlike the Sky News commentator I don't think England deserved their lead not that I'm complaining. England aren't playing with any passion or flexibility and continue to sit back despite France scoring when we tried it earlier. As is stands 1-1 will be a good result for us, can't see us scoring.
If we're too tired to play then bring on a big man up front and play route one.

On the BBC News page: "France hold England in Euro opener"

Obviously the BBC and I were watching different games (to be fair the article itself is more accurately titled) as it was England who held France

Ukraine 0 -1 Sweden
That's a good enough reason to crack open a bottle of Kopparberg
