UEFA Euro 2012 - Group D - ** spoilers ** (England, France, Sweden, Ukraine)

[BunnyKillBot]

England:
Shots on target = 1
Shots off target = 2

France:
Shots on target = 6
Shots off target = 7

Commentator saying that we've matched them attacking wise?!?

Has there actually been an England strike yet? Like, with a foot?

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Excellent block

 

[shadow_boxer]

Terrible atmosphere. Getting very boring. Both teams playing ****, but at least the French are trying to get out first gear.

It's Denmark v Holland all over again.

Where's the English trumpet player?

 

[daz]

France building some momentum now, England need some fresh legs.

Tbh empty seats didn't surprise me that much with all the bad press on the racism in Ukraine.

It's also a bit far and expensive to go.

Where's the English trumpet player?

Where's the English trumpet player?

Probably still trying to get there.

 

[Shamikebab]

Neither team look like scoring, France seem very relaxed, Benzema is rarely in the box!

So France have been training in the fierce heat of Donetsk and England haven't, what could go wrong?

This poster has the truth of it before the game IMO. Exactly the same as the first half. 25 minutes of fresh play then hot tired sloppy sloppy.

 

[Tibbz2]

Oh wow we got a free kick!

 

[Nate75]

maybe a hint of both teams being happy with a point..

 

[cm1179]

i'd say get defoe on but there's no point, he wont get a touch

 

[Yas786]

It's Denmark v Holland all over again.

Yep pretty much this, game has become a bore really.

I wouldn't say shots is inclusive of attacking skill, we certainly are able to make the space and runs upfront, on par with them.

France could have had 2-3 goals if not for Hart, we've not even been able to test their keeper.

edit: Defoe coming on at last..

 

[Rotty]

will take 1-1 as a result but 2nd half performance has been dire
