Nice call!

Thanks! Now I just have to trust myself more than 20$ worth....But it was a great payout still!

It’s the perfect lesson in civics: Being Scottish 101.

Have we Hibsed it?

If this score holds Group E is officially the most litty of the tourney! LOL

I could see Slovakia sweeping. It’s crazy.

Great defending from Sweden and they should have stolen it had it not been for a hamfisted back post effort.

I think the ball may have bounced but it was a huge chance. Isak was MOTM for me, he also had a great chance in the first half when Llorente happened to be on the goal line to deflect it against the post and away.

This just in: England may be in trouble after inheriting the infamous Drake curse!!!

I think the Scottish way will be to take something off England, setting us up for glorious failure against Croatia.

Anyone else struggling to get into this tournament? Don't know if it's because we struggled yesterday or what, but I'm not all that excited for this. I think I'm waiting for one amazing game to get things fired up...

The football has been shit so far. The big teams have been horrifically negative. Look at Portugal now. Millions of creative players but a really depressingly negative selection and win with a jammy deflection.

Yeah, this. Never got to have a proper look at Italy, but none of the big teams have blown me away.

Italy looked kinda impressive but Turkey are the worst team I’ve seen so far. No energy or passion. I think we will know more about them after Switzerland tomorrow. I’m hoping that Germany v France next will light a spark.

Although if he was onside that second Ronaldo goal is my favourite of the tournament so far.

Edit: It was, lovely passing move in tight spaces.

Yep, that was a beauty, effortless skill and finesse. Great goal.

He made it look effortless at the end too!

I think the best is being saved for last though. The France Germany game has all the makings of a classic waiting to happen!

It does, if they don’t go out to cancel each other out….
