WEURO22 Group D Winners France Runners Up Belgium Thread Closed

I know the football is not great but I still want to mouth off viking style.

Our problem is lack of quality understandable so , I don't think that the quality is quite as bad as you think that's all.

Italy so much better footballers

More ambitious, more up for the win. Iceland are employing a sort of 'anti' football system - we've seen this approach time and time again at The Etihad. Teams that have few or no attacking options and who turn athleticism into all out defending.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

That just about sums up this game. Probably the best chance of the game and scuffed four yards wide.

There's another Icelandic chance. Touch and control when it's needed just deserts so many of these 'international' women.

Iceland have adopted a form of hoofball that would make Big Fat Sam wince!

Italians paying the price for -
2 dreadful first half displays in their matches
Physically outmuscled by both France and Iceland
chronic shortage of class up front (like almost every other side)
Looking forward to watching the French later…..

Looks like there’s a little mascot playing for Belgium!!

It feels like every single header on target in this tournament results in a goal.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Lol

That's the worst miss I've ever seen. The commentators didn't even have a word to say about it. Doesn't help when the commentators at the Women's Euros treat it like they're covering a kids game.

 

[Boo or Boo-urns]

Dat pen, dat miss.
