Quarter finals

[#FreeBTS]

Friday 2nd July

Spain vs Switzerland 5pm
Belgium vs Italy 8pm

Saturday 3rd July

Czech Republic vs Denmark 5pm
England vs Ukraine 8pm

Not the greatest set of quarter finals on paper let’s be honest, but it’s also hard to give a fuck when England have that route to the final. Saturday is going to be absolute carnage one way or another, I really fancy England to make it comfortable as well

3-0, easy as it comes

Hope the Danes get past Czech Republic.

Bit gutted that Hazard and De Bruyne are ruled out of the quarter final. Could still be a classic though

This is shiiiiiiiiiiiiiite

[Stu]

trust the english refs to get that wrong and then stick by his shit decision with var

[#FreeBTS]

Don’t really get this whole ‘ah yeah of course English refs would do that’ that happens every time an English ref makes a bad decision. Doesn’t really make complete sense to me to have VAR teams the same nationality though, surely they’re more likely to back up their mates?

Peter Walton on ITV saying it’s exactly right can absolutely do one though, the useless fucking worm

[Stu]

because english refs are fucking useless so its never a shock to see them get another decision completely wrong, despite having the chance to view it again

[ChappyHova]

All refs have consistently not overturned that kind of decision all tournament though.

Anthony Taylor did the Italy-Austria game the other day and he was excellent. I don’t even blame Michael Oliver that much I thought it looked bad, but it’s meant to be the point of VAR to bring that back. Obviously UEFA have said they don’t want much overturned though, and they’ve just gone way too far the other way with decisions like that one and the Mbappe penalty vs Portugal.

As much as I like the Walton analysis for explaining the odd decisions it really does show the refs union that he's always agreeing with the ref.

There's a problem with the quality of English ref's you say?

Someone should start a bandwagon.

Sommer looks like a superb keeper

[Steven]

Woeful penalties from Switzerland.

[Exonerator]

Fucking bottlers

[Maskya Yoshida]

Shite from Switzerland, embarrassing.
