[Football] Euros 2024 - Round of 16 (Switzerland vs Italy & Germany vs Denmark)

[A1X]

Stopped for a bit of lightning, how ridiculous

Seen footage of people being struck in a couple of African games. But this is a big stadium which would surely minimise the risk?

Let’s not forget Christian Eriksen is playing with a heart condition and a device to keep his heart working, which would not be a good mix with close lightning

 

[Midget]

With all the electronic in the stadium, could cause a lot of problems if the storm is bad enough

Logistical problems maybe, but less threat to life?

Maybe logistics is enough - or maybe it's just the pitch after rain & hail?

My app Lighning Pro shows Dortmund SURROUNDED by electrical storms. Could be a while.

Lights could go out, that would really cause health issues.

Jesus Christ that guttering is even worse than on my place

Yeah fair play

Enjoy listening to Ange. Makes a different having current managers rather than those who've been out of the game for ages.

More likely safety?

(Yes I'm being facetious )

I've really liked hearing from him this tournament:
1. Has some interesting insight to contribute, and
2. His press conferences are usually loud media v Ange whisper, so it's nice to actually hear what he's saying for a change.

 

[hart's shirt]

Not surprised they left the pitch.

Germany aren't the raining champions.

 

[A1X]

If they don’t get back on to resume then India will advance to the quarter finals

(Niche joke)

 

[Midget]

Will they treat that as half time and play another 50? Or come on for 5 and go off again?

(timings ish)

 

[Triggaaar]

The last 3 european champions have all been knocked out in the first knockout stage of the next competition.

That's not a hoodoo that'll ever get us

 

[Triggaaar]

What on earth was wrong with that goal? English officials strike again.

Correct decision. Only decent English ref.

 

[Midget]

Duckworth Lewis

 

[Washie]

Not sure the keeper knew anything about that.

 

[Midget]

Clive Tyldsley is the main reason my other half refuses to ever, ever, have ITV football on, ever. Just hates his voice.

Don't expect that to change with Matterface no.1 though
