Euro 2024

Congratulations... that was a well-played match. Although I thought the ref called a few questionable fouls against Netherlands... I also felt it could've easily been 2-1 or 3-1 England at the half. Some quality near misses.

Regardless, it's gonna be a quality Final.

England vs Spain.

Doesn't get much more classic than that.

I can see why the penalty was given - in the crazy days of var - but no way should those be given in my book.

Agreed thought we should have been ahead at half time but we got the lucky break late on again. I’ll take it of course.

Job not done yet though.

Runners up just ain’t good enough no more.

That was never a penalty but I am not going to argue with it considering some of the shocking decisions that have gone against England and in favour of our opposition in the past. On balance I think we deserved it and we played with so much more coherence we have got a decent chance on Sunday if we build on that performance and get a fair wind behind us. Almost optimistic.

After Colombia's win over Uruguay in the Copa América semifinal, tempers flared on the pitch. But things got really ugly when some Uruguay players went into the stands and began fighting with Colombian fans. Darwin Nuñez was at the center of this brawl. Reportedly he went in there to protect his wife and children, who were reportedly being harassed by the Colombia fans. In any case, Conmebol is reportedly investigating the incident, and it's as of yet unclear whether any disciplinary actions will be taken, and against whom. If Darwin gets disciplined, it's unclear whether that will affect his status or role with Liverpool.

Too bad the match turned in that fashion. I had mentioned earlier how it was a foul-filled, messy match. I was actually rooting for Uruguay. I'm hoping the refs take notice, and keep the Final under control.

Well 28 hours or so to go. Today is the calm before the storm.

Most of us hope rather than expect to do it.

At the start of the tournament if someone offered new getting to the final and you could either play Germany, France, Portugal or Spain though I'd have chosen Spain out of those options.

A month however is a long time in football

Spoiler Alert!

















There's a time difference, so I won't go into details.

But that was worthy of a Finals match. Both this one and the last World Cup final have been excellent, exciting matches. Both very well played by both teams. Congratulations to both teams, as they put on a terrific show.



Later tonight is the Copa America final match between Argentina and Colombia.

I'm hoping for an equally quality match.

So close and yet so far.

That clearance off the line in the last minutes!

I need to take it in.
