    No. After what he said about Iceland. Just as Formy said.

    I love Ronaldo but agree his comments were out of order. They'll still probably qualify.

    I can't wait for England to play a team that actually attacks them instead of shutting up shop and playing for a point from the first minute. I still don't know why the smurf all the teams in this group are so trout scared of England of all teams but there we are.

    Don't think Slovakia shutting up shop is an excuse for England registering one shot on target or something the whole game.

    So it's England against second place in Group F (Hungary, Portugal, Iceland, Austria), and Wales play one of the third-placed teams. Hoping for Wales v Albania.

    Honestly, first or second at this stage matters not a jot. We'll both face beatable teams in the next game.

    I can just see the sneering, smug Welsh faces right now and... I want to light them all on fire.

    I shouldn't follow football.

    I'm glad you're so familiar with my face.

    Also, goals scored at this tournament:

    Cristiano Ronaldo: 0
    Zlatan Ibrahimovic: 0
    Neil Taylor: 1

    I think we're done here fellas

    Of course Wales are smug, they deserve to be smug at the moment.

    I never said it was an excuse for anything. It's just not what I want to watch.

    Are Wales fans really smug? Their display against a mediocre England team was atrocious.

    Let them have their victory. Let's be the bigger side here.

    The second place teams for Group F could literally be any of the four teams. I'd find it unusual if Austria climbed to third place, but this group is rather tightly bunched up with a ton of draws.

    The good news is that England could conceivably beat any of them. The bad news is that England has drawn two of their three games, and draws are no longer possible. They will have to improve their attack, because their finding even smaller teams tough to penetrate through and score goals.

    Second place isn't bad. But they need to do better.

    Just a small note on Wales though. We can begrudge the slightly more arrogant aspects of the Welsh fanbase (and Bale, somewhat), they did get to the top of the group. They thumped Russia, and won against Slovakia. They were pretty mediocre against England, but it was only 2-1 and it wasn't a crushing defeat and bounced back against Russia. They've done well.

    Now that I've sobered up...

    What a night for Welsh football. It really was something to behold after twenty five years of watching utter guff year in year out (apart from a short period in the early 00s where we had Speed, Hartson, Giggs when he could be bothered, Bellamy, Earnshaw, and yes, even Robbie Savage and strictly speaking should have qualified at least once), I've never seen Wales play as well as they did last night. We could have been 1-0 up in the first minute. Russia were absolutely dreadful, but I suppose that's what happens when you stop taking your performance-enhancing drugs.

    It was a great change up from the way we played against England, where even the most hardcore of fans I knew were admitting that our tactics were too negative to earn a draw. The Russians were all carthorses in their thirties, so we had a wide, fast game and they just couldn't deal with it. Joe Allen had a blinder and looked every penny of the £15M (cheers again by the way). Bale was just given a complete free reign and positioned himself wherever he felt like at any point in time, be it the right, left, defensive mid or centre forward. I'm really pleased with the togetherness the boys are showing, they are definitely playing better than the sum of their parts at the moment.

    Hoping for Northern Ireland in the second round, then if we can do them over, a tasty clash with Belgium in the quarters.


    there was a picture here

    I secretly love Wee Joe so your wiles won't work on me. He was my MotM for Wales against both Slovakia and England (dat Rooney nutmeg tho). Will legit be a bit sad when you buy him back for £5m this summer and I'm thrilled he's munching the Euros.

    So now we have Germany/Italy/Spain/France/England all on the same side of the draw. Wales to go all the way on the other side? OK, maybe not...
