    Someone from switzerland :)

    swiss home advantage counts for a goal. 1 goal winning margin for swiss.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,899 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    About as awful as this match is gonna be so just keeping with the spirit of things.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,111 ✭✭✭joker77


    Turkey were really clueless against Portugal, so I'm actually going to change it to a Swiss win. Being the home side, and they had a couple of handy players - yer man Behrami did well in parts, he might be good for a goal.

    Haven't been able to see a decent game yet, surely it would make sense to put the interesting games at later kickoff...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 482 ✭✭Death or Glory


    Gonna have a few quid on Vonlanthen or Streiller


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    Backed under 2.5 goals in this in an accumulator.
    Cant see any goals at all to be honest and the most boring game ever in store.

    Think I'll be doing ironing or something to keep me interested.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Tom65


    My hope is that because they both need to win to go through, it'll turn out to be exciting. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem at all likely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,988 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    backed the swiss to win tonight in a double with austria V Poland being under 2.5 goals. 8 euro returns 28. Hoping it makes both awful awful games a bit more interesting...

    Why not transfer 4 of the swiss team to your fantasy football, that would make
    the game very interesting ;););)

    I actually did bring in a swiss defender in place of Mellberg and Hakin Yakin in place of De Rossi (why the fuk isn't he starting for italy by the way?!) Not because i think the swiss are good or anything but a lot of the big teams play each other this round so weren't too many good defensive options i could pick without going over the 2 players per team thing. Yakin looked lively against the czechs, could see him score tonight against the turks (if he starts).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    I feel the boredom creeping in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    Arda Turan starting for Turkey, watch this boy.

    Good game.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    Now that's what I call a lot of rain. Turkish goalie is getting a free bath with these saves he's had to make.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,824 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Good game.

    Rain is causing some problems however


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    I think the rain is making it a good game, for me anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    Off the post...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    See lads Irish weather(In dublin at least, even though its raining at the moment) is really not that bad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    If this carries on I can see it being abandoned, parts of the pitch are almost unplayable now, in 30 mins it'll be quagmire.

    Haken scores

    Mike.

    I don't think a Euro/World cup game has ever been abandoned due to weather (at least not since tv became an issue anyway)?

    I was just wondering what will happen if they have to abandon it? The schedule for the group stages is so tight, when could it be replayed?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,824 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Yakin scores for Trillas fantasy team! Should have got a second

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    How did he miss that one ffs.

    Pitch is in absolute bits.

    Unexpected excitement


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    LOL at the passback. Nearly got stuck.

    Will the pitch be like this for the whole match now?

    Jaysus the pitch is making this match hilarious. I keep cracking up when someone goes on a run and leaves the ball behind him :)

    Genius comment on BBC there; "It flooded quickly, so presumably it will empty quickly too"....why?
