Group A: Germany, Scotland, Hungary, Switzerland

Proper Everton away against a top opponent kind of performance by Scotland this.

Premier League would still find a way to mess this up

Hard to beat a bit of transparency. Who would have thought?

 

[Papa Shango]

The beauty of football. All types can find a role. The Monster was a legend. Imagine pairing him with the technical genius of Karl-Heinz Rummenigge as they often did in 1980-82. That's proper balance.

Klaus Allofs and Klaus Fischer as well. They had some boss players back then.

Even Mel Gibson would struggle to rewrite this one in Scotlands favour.

Almost like the Premier League isn't interested in a transparent aid to making the game fairer....

 

[ste d' indica]

ITV’s VAR lawyer really sucks the atmosphere out of the commentary.

Ally McCoist talking football trivia then the robot chimes in.

It's not the profession, gender or nationality that's winding me up, it's the blatant shilling for technology in football.

Think ITV have failed to read the room here completely.

Klaus Allofs and Klaus Fischer as well. They had some boss players back then.

I said the other day that Germany have had so many great players that they can barely remember them.

Allofs and Fischer were superb. When you had Rummenigge and Breitner, I suppose, you take the merely superb for granted. Hrubesch couldn't get in that side.

Having Mike Dean and Dermot Gallagher defend their mates is as good as we’re gonna get.

To be fair, if it was prime Bernard Manning doing the analysis while throwing in some blue jokes, I’d enjoy it a lot more. So I think gender, nationality and banter level are important.

Sane is still a greedy player. Never passes it.

 

[carlos21]

Germany are just too good for the Scots.

 

[Nymzee]

Comeback’s on

 

[Azza]

The come back is on!

 

[Lee Smith]

Fight back ON!
