[Football] Euros 2024 - Matchday 2

Love the Italian national anthem so much

Me too, it’s a real epic, but I just can’t get behind Italy. I liken them to Uruguay, just a thoroughly unlikeable team who moan and shithouse when things don’t go their way.

Love the Italian national anthem so much

Shame there only seems to be about 25 Italians in the stadium. Where are they all!?

 

[jcdenton08]

f*** me!

 

[A1X]

OMG!!!

 

[Crispy Ambulance]

Get in

 

[allystrat]

I bet the Albanian drug gangs had money on that

 

[Swegulls]

Haha, what a start,

 

[jcdenton08]

Almost 1-1, what a start

 

[dstanman]

Who saw that coming, makes an interesting game now

 

[A1X]

With a bit of passion, the minnows can stick it to the big guns (looks at Scotland)

 

[A1X]

Oh well

….and then

Italy deservedly in front at halftime. They have dominated the game after scoring those two goals to give them the lead. Albania will need produce something special in the second half if they want something from this match.

 

[Justice]

We should have signed Frattesi Mac replacement

 

[BevBHA]

Italy are cheating scum I hate them

 

[Javeaseagull]

VAR have definitely upped their game at the EUROs from what I have seen so far. Like the rule about only Captains talking to the Ref as well. Worked until the Italians got involved.

 

[Comrade Sam]

Why have Italy's shorts got a loo seat print on?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Not getting the praise being heaped on Italy

They have looked very average.

 

[hart's shirt]

Why have Italy's shorts got a loo seat print on?

Probably a tribute to Roberto Boggio.

Italy did enough to secure a 2-1 victory against Albania. It wasn’t completely reassuring, but they did enough to secure the three points. Now two difficult fixtures against Spain and Croatia.
