Yes it all kicks off tonight, the Summer tournament we've alllily has been waiting for!
100,000 Scotland fans have descended on Munich where they will be ritually dismantled by Germany. No one likes either of these teams so it is of little interest at this stage. England play on Sunday night when they will ritually embarrassed by Serbia who cheat a lot allegedly.
I'd have done a sweep but I recall the derision last time so I can't be arsed with all that again. We shall just follow England and laugh at the Welsh as and when they get ritually rammed.
Bloody awful performance from the porridge munchers who had obviously been at the Tennant's Super all day. Not a single shot, on target or otherwise, their only consolation being a German own goal in the 87th minute. Florian Wirtz scored first which made it the Wirtz possible start by Scotland. And things got worse at HT when Porteous went in all feet blazing and scythed down a Kraut in the box. Nasty, and a straight sending off.
There's a reason they haven't played European football tournaments since 1978 (I remember Ally's Tartan Army and the subsequent capitulation) and this sorry show explains it.
I thought you might have backed Scotland yesterday what with Gobshite McGin playing for them. Are there any other Villa players appearing for other teams? (I'd check myself but I can't be arsed....)
Villa players at Euros Watkins and Konsa - England Gobshite McGin - Scotland Turncoat Tielemans - Belgium
Newcastle players "Flash" Gordon and Tripier - England Schar - Switzerland (a fine win earlier against Hungary) Dubravka - Slovakia
Liverpool players (loads of these) Terence Trent Alexander Arnold and Gomez - England Robertson - Scotland Jota - Portugal Jarus (me neither) - Czechia Konate - France Szboslza/Sbozlozba The bloke with the funny name - Hungary (who lost terribly earlier to Switzerland) Gakpo / Gravenberch / Van Dick - Netherlands
Leicester players (yes, we have some there) Wout Faes - Belgium Hermansen / Kristiansen / Verstergaaaaardsen - Denmark
So all our teams have 4 out there apart from Liverpool who have 10.
