Everyone goes on about Ronaldo still playing for Portugal but no one ever really talks about Pepe. 41 and still a regular.

He’s not as glamorous is he.

Still as phenomenal an achievement as his more famous colleague.

He's going to play the next game in a pair of boots 1/2 a size smaller. That would have been the difference!

He's had more goals disallowed in this tournament than anyone else has actually scored goals. What a quiz question!

Yep… England fans want to root for Georgia…

It’s convoluted … but if Georgia beat Portugal, England last 16 opponent would be Slovakia

If they don’t…. The opponent would be the Netherlands

Do you know who the highest ranked team would be in the bottom half of the draw would be… it would be England!!!

Quarter final would be against the Switzerland/italy winner…..

Is Slovakia a better draw for England in the round of 16? Netherlands are always formidable so if Georgia can hold on here it could be (literally!) a game changer for England!

We said the same in the WC in Russia. And almost made the Final until we were Southgated and Croatia did us in the the second half of the semi.

Well, Keane and Neville are former players (and still involved with) [redacted] FC. The same club that's not committing to the women's side of things for next season yet and who have just handed the women's training facilities to the men and moved women into portakabins, while work is done at the training ground.

Colour me surprised.

Sure, why talk about the match and Euros when you can turn it into a Men Vs Women issue

The penalty was explained, but they can still disagree and think it was a soft pen. They're not just disagreeing with the female ref, they're disagreeing with the on-field ref and the VAR. All male.

The on field ref wasn't going to give it. It was flagged for VAR check and then it went to that rigmarole where the on field ref jogs over to the little tellybox and watches it back from 73 different angles. I'm never clear if the VAR team behind the scenes actually make a recommendation at that point, but as we know with that decision where a ref totally overruled VAR and the audio was leaked, it's the on field ref who gets the final say. And yes, that was a male ref on this occasion.

My comments about XYZ FC stand.

Yours and the OP's original point wasn't about the merits of the penalty though, it was the idea that because Keane and Neville used to play for "XYZ FC", that's why they dared to disagree with a female ref even though by disagreeing with that, they're disagreeing with the male ref that made the decision after the VAR review. It was a ridiculous leap to make with no value to the actual match discussion.

It's fine. You may have a point as Neville and Keane famously always got on with male refs in their playing days

I think (want) England to make it to the final they've been playing poor and still haven't technically lost so if they finally turn it on they will have an easy run. Also the group stages are always difficult as most of these lower ranked countries will play for draws. Looks how solvakia was celebrating drawing to us and coming 3rd

I'm going to call it now and say that's probably game over. Italy lost the ball straight from kick off.

Switzerland are a far better side than any of the teams England toiled against in their group of life.

I think all gambling adverts on telly should be banned personally but they pay a lot so until it's legislated out like tobacco it's unlikely to change..
