FabSwingers.com forum: EURO 2020 Day 8 : The Jocks & The Geordie

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

So just 25 years and 3 days since Gazza scored THAT goal against Scotland at Euro96, Wembley is again the venue for another European Championship Finals England v Scotland game tonight. Such a shame it’s a reduced capacity otherwise the atmosphere would have been epic.

Scotland can’t afford to lose otherwise their tournament is as good as done whatever happens in their final game against Croatia, and an England win would ensure qualification for the knock out phases!

This one is another heartbreaking one for me as I originally had a ticket for the game which was sadly taken away when the Wembley capacity was reduced but like most of the rest of the nation it’ll be all eyes on ITV later for the big one!

In the meantime there’s the small matter of two other sideshows to get out of the way and my predictions are:

Sweden 2-1 Slovakia 2pm

Croatia 1-1 Czech Republic 5pm

England 3-1 Scotland 8pm

Oh and congrats to Belgium & the Netherlands who join Italy as definite qualifiers into the knockout phases after yesterday’s wins!

What’s your predictions for today’s games?

In terms of today’s action;

Sweden 2 Slovakia 0

Croatia 3 Czech rep 0

England 4 Scotland 0

I think that it’s going to be a day of one sided contests, I just can’t see the Czechs causing Croatia problems or Scotland hurting England.

I’m hoping that those words don’t come back to bite me…

Hope you’re right. Thing is the England game is, dare I say, Scotland’s Cup Final isn’t it? The one they’re gonna be really up for and raise their game for.

Croatia / Czechs is effectively the 2nd place playoff assuming the group otherwise goes to form, but I think both will qualify.

Would it be better for England to finish 2nd in the group or is that a cowardly approach to the knock out phase?

I’d always say that it’s better to top the group and come what may, the old adage; to be the best, you’ve got to beat the best is still true.

You’re right about Scotland and there’s a lot to be said for team passion but on paper, I can’t see Scotland hurting us, unless it’s through error or having a bad day. England will be up for this too though…

Ooh I hope it’s a positive memory not a negative one!

Incidentally since Wembley has been rebuilt the best 2 atmospheres I’ve witnessed were vs Poland (which was crazy) and Scotland .. always tense and nervy, scuffles breaking out all around. But the noise was immense whereas new Wembley’s atmosphere is usually quite muted.

I'm going 3-1 to England.

But the scoreline will not reflect how close the game will be in reality.

I think it will have a prem game feel to it. End to end, scuffles and mini battles breaking out in the middle.

But I feel Scotland will most probably run on fumes in terms of energy and emotions by the end and England will grab a couple of goals after the 80th min.

Congrats to Sweden, 4pts in the bag and as good as through to the knockout stages with that hard earned 1-0 win via a penalty. The Slovaks threw everything bar the kitchen sink in those last couple of minutes to no avail!

Shag will be celebrating tonight!

Slovakia will have it all to do now and will need some sort of positive result against Spain to go through despite a good opening day win vs Poland.

Right .. Group D up next!!

Literally zero seconds of time added on at the end of the first half, 0-0.

First half of the first half was frenetic, some great chances but settled down a bit after that.

I tend to agree with Lee Dixon (words I thought I’d never hear myself say

), I think Grealish would be a great sub for England - give him 30-35 mins at least!

Thoughts on the first half? What would you do differently 2nd half?

So .. 0-0 it is .. a good point for the Scots which keeps them in the running for the knockout phases with a must win game against Croatia now on Tuesday - a draw won’t be enough.

4pts now for England .. should be enough to see them through although a defeat on Tuesday v the Czechs might yet still see them out!

Not the best game to be fair, both sides had chances but very frustrating at times .. I don’t think anyone else watching will be worried about either team.

England v the Czechs now to win the group .. a draw will see us finish Second...

To be fair and to put things in context, this was effectively a derby match, close neighbours, biggest rivalry, most players in the Premier League .. it was never going to be a free-flowing classic and was “the” game of the group.

Remember France v Germany t’other night was the other hyped game and that was shit too!

A point is good for both teams - it was a Group game at the end of the day and the game would no doubt have been very different if it was a straight knockout - a very different mindset in that situation. Now Scotland have a home game which they need to win now and England a home game that they need not to avoid defeat .. so a draw was always decent for both.

I'll take your question literally otherwise it's pointless. We lost 2-1 in extra time.

It’s still COMING HOME!!

Good night!

10/10 for optimism, but I don't think anybody taking an objective view can see anything other than a match we should have won chucked away for lack of effort and two points wasted.

Scotland tried hard for sure and I was wishing they'd score first to give us a kick up the arse.

Well done on not losing, be nice if they learnt to score a goal "
one goal in two games is hardly prolific.

"Oh one final thing before bed ..

Don’t forget that Portugal drew all 3 group games last time around .... then went on to win the thing!

It’s a marathon not a sprint. It’s how you finish, not how you start .. etc etc

It’s still COMING HOME!!

Good night!

it will still be coming home in the 2066 World Cup.

No, otherwise any team that doesn't win the tournament is rubbish. Were Man City rubbish this year because Chelsea beat them in the champions league final?

Arguable.

The best teams generally win the big trophies.

We are chuffed because we outfought you and have given ourselves a chance to make the last 16. Unlucky not to win. Showed we can go toe to toe. Your team was gutted as they trooped off. A poetic sight, cheers!

0-0 in your cup final scotland played well but outfought I’m not so sure it was pretty even i thought no way were you dominant

two poor sides I thought like a premier league game both sides could have won if they took their chances but neither of us did it was mostly a midfield battle

a point each was fair my point is celebrating a 0-0 like you won the tournament is a bit ott and embrassibg imho

Scotland qualified playing as a team and excelled in that tonight, Croatia will be a very different proposition but at least you are at Hampden...pleased to see very little 'added time' needed, no histrionics! Felt that Gilmour and McGinn were the difference
