Euro 2016 - Group D - Czech Republic vs Croatia, 5pm, RTE & BBC

Mr.Nice Guy

Czech Republic vs Croatia

5:00pm Friday 17th June
Stade Geoffroy-Guichard

Teams:

Czech Republic: Cech; Kaderabek, Sivok, Hubnik, Limbersky; Plasil; Rosicky, Skalak, Krejci, Dorida; Lafata.

Croatia: Subasic; Srna, Corluka, Vida, Strinic; Modric, Badelj; Brozovic, Rakitic, Peresic; Mandzukic.


Croatia looked good in their opening game and can secure qualification for the next round with a win. The Czechs are searching for their first points. The Premier League's Mark Clattenburg will be the ref for this one.

I'll go for a 2-1 win to Croatia.

BoJack Horseman

1-1 draw

Poborsky & Suker to score........ in a refreshingly retro move....

So have the team behind RTE player. It keeps cutting out to childrens programmes and random parts of England vs. Wales from yesterday. It's unacceptable Joe.

Reassuring to hear this. Thought it was just me.
I tried clearing my Chrome cache, but no use.

Got the exact same, some RTE Jr and yesterdays match.

Infuriating.
edit:

An alternative to RTE Player is BBC One on TVplayer here.
Good stream, no sign up necessary.

Bret Hart

Gorgeous.

Paw Patrol might be more entertaining

GreNoLi

A lot of fragile balls this tournament.

Johner

Croatia have probably been the most impressive team so far.

Don't mind it too much, today, but tomorrow? There'd be murder if the stream is going wonky during the Belgium game, since I imagine some people will be relying on its stability.

Indeed, i'll be one of those people. I'll be going mad if it happens tomorrow. RTE's nepotism probably stretches to their IT department

Mr.Nice Guy

Srna's dad died 5 days ago. It wasn't clear if he would play today but he told the coach he was ready. It would be a great moment if he scored.

Howard the Duck

Good save there and as the commentary by Paw patrol said "Rabbits are brave Rabbits are brave" I agree with that

RTE will miss out on a little bit of ad revenue, too, maybe. I've moved over to a BBC stream.

mugsymugsy

Vicxas

This RTE player is surreal.

rodge68

Modric playing some lovely passes..class act.

Zvonimir Boban to make an appearance off the bench.

Mr.Nice Guy

Perisic! 1-0.

Johner

Well deserved.

BoJack Horseman

Fine goal.... and deserved.
Croatia well on top.

Harry Palmr

The Czech squad has fallen so far since 2004

mansize

Go Croatia! Mr Wenger's dark horse going strong

DarraghF197

Croatia look like serious dark horses for this tournament.

Bret Hart

A few more please.

Vicxas

Got on to RTE and they gave me this link, it seems more stable:

What on earth is Clattenburg doing? One of the most blatant fouls you'll see and he shakes his head.

Bret Hart

Why no Lovren in the Croatia squad ?

Harry Palmr

He had a falling out with the coach which started with something very small - the match warm up and escalated from there.

Good backup even if not HD.

Original seems to be fixed now. Been 10~ mins now with no fault.

from an Irish perspective, you want two ideally heavy wins for Spain/Croatia in this group today...

MadVillainy

Croatia are a very good side. Would like to see them go far. Modric the best midfielder on the planet for me.

That_Guy

What a lovely goal. Croatia are deadly.

Harry Palmr

Croats home and hosed.

Bret Hart

Delightful finish.

Mr.Nice Guy

Lovely goal.

Vicxas

Lovely from Rakatic

AllGunsBlazing

Kenny Cunningham sounds like he's reading a weather report there.

Harry Palmr

Kovacic on.

Bret Hart

Hopefully nothing too serious for Modric.

kksaints

Croatia look very impressive. The Czechs and Turkey wouldn't be the weakest of teams and they have looked very impressive in beating them.

Bret Hart

Should have took a touch.

That_Guy

Eh, that's a push Clattenburg you clown.

EDIT: Or not. My apologies to you and your weird tongue action Mr. Clattenburg.

That_Guy

Right in the bollocks. That's gotta hurt.

AllGunsBlazing

Eye watering.

Harry Palmr

Croatia are the new dark horses of this tournament it's fair to say
