Strange rebranding exercise to rename ‘Czech Republic’ to ‘Chechnya’

Mate, tell me how far either of these teams are going in this tournament. I saw sloppy and unprofessional play from both teams that will clearly get ruthlessly punished by any of the big guns

Undoubtedly both sides will be eliminated quickly. But that was a cracking match today with some moments of outrageous technical brilliance and a frenzy of excitement. In entertainment terms, it was a corker. Will it become a central match in the story of this tournament, no. But it was wonderful for what it was.

Frank Lampard in the studio, no doubt hoping some dumb club hires him.

Danny Murphy?

Pepe oldest player at the Euros ever

Switch to iPlayer to watch with 5 live commentary instead of listening to that screeching woman.

I've yet to hear a female commentator I liked. But as there are so many male commentators who, frankly, are not up to the job, I can't say I'm against women getting these gigs. There are too many bad men to make that a reasonable course of action.

This Portugal formation is baffling my head. Nothing like it looked on the apps.

Think it's just the level of punditry/commentating that make it cringeworthy, for both the lads and the lasses.

There is nothing wrong with Robyn Cowen.

Danny Murphy though...

I am old enough to have called them Czechoslovakia and then the Czech Republic, and now they want to be called Czechia. Well, the hillbillies want to be called the Children of the Sun, and that's not happening either.

Make your minds up!

Pepe and Ronaldo with a combined aged of 80 proves for me that I was right all along in eating 6 Pastel de nata every day

I'm gonna live forever!

Goal Ronaldo.

Personally I think they should go for Bohemia, it sounds cooler.
