Has anyone been able to locate video of Christian Eriksen collapsing on the field? It looks like it has been completely scrubbed from the internet.

Well they are hard at work, the Interview with a Police officer about how close the sniper were to get the fire signal to take out the glider is also gone.

Is it too soon to say Italy is a strong contender to win this Cup?

Maybe, the swiss and turks are hardly a great test of strength but they've hardly put a foot wrong. If they stumble against Wales it might raise questions but their RO16 is most likely Austria or Ukraine, both of which unlikely to pose a risk
 
There’s no doubt Ronaldo is a very talented footballer, but the constant diving he does makes him deserving of the Penaldo nickname. He’s very much a football LeBron James.
 
So due to the best four overall losers getting a spot into the Euro knockouts, we're currently looking at Finland, Austria, Spain and Croatia obtaining a pass. Of course we still have some games left, but an amusing batch.

That England match was so boring I was part wishing for a player to collapse so the match could be postponed.

Southgate's absurd love for playing his fav's over tactical strengths got highlighted tenfold today. Scotland had everyone doubting them, even moreso since they where against the English. They (Scotland) defended well and continued to press the entire night, taking full advantage of the space presented to them. Fully deserved the point and the England side was rightfully held up from scoring. Especially in the second half, once the momentum died down.

Sterling and Kane starting up front together was the most braindead choice, considering the formation presented by Scotland on paper. Even moreso when they opt to replace Kane with Rashford, despite Sterling being the one flopping about every other second on the ball. Don't even get me started on the midfield going for the sideways possession meme. Southgate, you cannot adopt systems like this against a side that are playing five at the back, it's only inviting them to set-up a high line. Which low and behold, worked. England had at least four offsides, no?

Sancho, Calvert-Lewin and Grealish should have been on from minute one. Yet only one of them will likely see game time due to media pressure.

Reflecting on this score line, England will likely tie with Czech Republic. Why? Southgate is bound to do his "Let the lads get minutes" nonsense like at the last tournament (Only to be squashed by Belgium in the process) and Scotland will somehow meme themselves into a runner-up spot, especially with how lifeless Croatia have played. With the likes of Denmark and potentially Poland and Germany knocked out, we're going to have some rough knock-out matches with whoever gets the pity spots.

I'll say it now. Either England needs go change tactics to one that suits Kane, or they need to drop him. Because he is fucking useless under this setup.

I feel like they are intentionally trying to feed the ball more to Sterling than Kane. The entire air surrounding the current England team feels like some sort of media performance than anything unified. It's almost as they've been told "Sterling and Rashford have to be the heroes to prove this kneeling shit is right" because they left Kane high and dry yesterday. I do agree further adjustments need to be made as previously commented.
 
On the Copa América thing, Brazil is gonna win this shit with the whole team having a leg tied behind their backs, so no one is really bothering following it. @Stoneheart was right after all.

Meanwhile, all the local left-wing media is "celebrating" the fact it's not doing well in the overall ratings, as if it was some kind of defeat against Bolsonaro or something. They are that petty.

I straight up believe that England would have gotten to the World Cup final 3 years back if Vardy had played ahead of Kane.

Germany kicked Portugal out of the stadium with 4:2. In this group every team has a chance to advance. Next matches will be interesting

Scotland won 0-0. I figured something like this would happen.

It felt like INGERLUND weren't trying. We know they can play better because they did against Croatia.

The Croatia game honestly wasnt much better. England only won from the one real chance they got, and Sterling still nearly cocked it up

Guarantee the Czech game will end in another draw
