Sweet deft finish there to give Ukraine the lead V Slovakia.

AndyBoBandy

Lovely, delighted for them and really hope they hang on now for the win.

Come on ref… should have blown it at 90:01

Did RTE get the table wrong in Romania group or was I seeing things?

yeah,, I had to do a double take… they had Belgium & Romania as played 2 and drew 1 and lost 1….

Sky Sports score centre app is always my go to as it updates live., and they have a very handy group of the 6 3rd placed teams, of which 4 qualify for the next round.

Just showed the correct table…never mentioned the mistake😀

Slovak goalie will have nightmares about that goal. Had he just closed the gap it would never have happened. Ukrainian took his chance beautifully mind you.

Austria one up, good team

FrancieBrady

Seems an even matchup here. Missed first half though

Looked like Szczęsny tried to get out of the way.

Poland underwhelming as usual but Austria have been superb in the 2nd half.

Say Your Number

Looks like Poland will be the first team out of this.

Polski - Outski

Can we have a mute button for Kenny Cunningham?- God almighty, it's like having the pub bore in your ear when you're trying to watch the match. And can someone please explain to him that we can see what's happening.

Looking at the table, even a 3/4 goal win against the Netherlands might not be enough for Poland to get through, not like a result like that is likely anyway.

Arghus

Poland are always so disappointing in these tournaments.

yep. Took their chances. Could be a team that will be very hard to beat. I could see their progress coming down to penalties at some point

Remember them hanging on grimly for a draw in the 2022 World Cup match and Mexico who went out all guns blazing were knocked out, before they didn't lay a glove on France in the second round.

So far Didi has been right about Austria.

He's not as bad as James McLean.
Holy Jaysus.

France and Netherlands were in the same qualifying group, thought they would avoid repeat pairings in the tournament.

tom1ie

If Austria finish second Am I right in saying they play whoever finishes 2nd in group E? Belgium or Romania perhaps?

standardg60

That was never a yellow or even a foul, Taylor has been awful so far

FrancieBrady

Some butchering going on.

gym_imposter

Talk about against the run of play

Montage of Feck

Ah ref look at yer man's face, yet him have the goal!

Say Your Number

Rightly ruled out

John arse

Fooking Wonny Whelan is some clown 🤡.

tom1ie

was that ruled out as the Dutch player was blocking the French keeper?

I dunno. He was in the keepers way but he ran in on the initial shot and was onside from that shot. What’s he meant to do on the second shot. Is it as simple as interfering so definitely offside. Not sure if there’s any other rules that come into play?
