God I hope Iceland wins.

Order of preference for the winner:

1. Iceland
2. Anyone But Portugal
3. Wales

I hope the half-final will end up becoming Belgium-Kroatia. I don't really care about the others in that bracket.

So, I think Poland just knocked out Switzerland. Good on them, I hear this is the first year they've ever won games in this competition.

Sorry, I'm not a huge soccer fan and don't follow it too closely.

Thank god for that own goal, spared us all extra time.

Poor old Northern Ireland. I was rooting for them as the underdog but hey ho, good luck Wales too!

[charliepanayi]

Three pretty dire games (with one great goal). This half of the draw really does look dismal.

[Psychotic]

Been a pretty paff Euros for entertainment overall, last minute goal glut aside.

In the cruelest of cruel twists of fate, I actually missed yesterday's game because I was on a work charity 3 Peaks walk (that had been arranged months in advance). I managed to get a really crappy AM signal occasionally so got the score. Biggest Wales game in most people's lifetimes and I bloody missed it. Rest assured I was complaining about it all day. Even worse, I'm off to Paris today to watch the football having thought that Wales might get second place and play on Monday. For smurf's sake.

I'm disapointed Ireland is out obviously but at least went out fighting. Can't ask for more than that really. My brother asked me during the game would any Irish player make it onto the French team. I said Coleman and maybe Brady if he decided to be a wing back again. Sums it up really. I wish the best to Wales and England for the rest of the tournament. Paul... I didn't think I'd ever say but Lallana is the greatest thing that ever happened to your national team. If anyone is gonna win ye the Euros it's mister loreal himself.

Mean't to ask you Manus. As a guy from Wales, is everyone not just going bat-trout crazy that you actually have Bale? Seriously though.

[Crop]

Everyone is going bat-trout crazy in general. Absolutely bonkers down here, seriously.

[Psychotic]

Lallana will only win the Euros if it's decided in the first hour of the match. He has superb technique coupled with the stamina of a newborn baby.

You mean we have players other than Bale? Ridiculous.

Currently chilling in the Paris fan zone amongst the European masses under the Eiffel Tower. Hoping for an England win so that we may face them in the final. Viva Raheem Sterling.

[charliepanayi]

Go on Italy! I wonder if Germany can finally break their tournament jinx against them.
