Agreed.
I meant they smell blood after that goal. The Swiss seem like they are slightly panicked.

I see the Spaniards stronger
If England and the Netherlands qualify to the semis, we will have no other option but to support Spain. 0_0

I'm in! :)
But the Swiss can play with the English at eye level....that wasn't to be expected....or the English are still holding back!

Even if Turkey advances, I'm in for Spain if the Swiss don't push through. I see Turkey's Demiral is suspended for some non-sporting manifestation , ie apolitical hand gesture Seems duplicitous as UEFA supported the lgbt rainbow, ie a non-sporting manifestation.

....na ja...the compassion here is limited, the Turks have some very nasty, hateful "fans"....no funny Scots or even dancing Dutchies to win sympathies and support!
I'm in for Spain
Okay....then it's all clear: PF for Spain! (If the Swiss don't make it)

Hmm... wait a minute... all teams that we support get kicked out, right? I have an idea...
GO ENGLAND!!!

BB, we can hack the system: all we have to do is support England, and the Swiss are through!
Come on, you sons of Albion!!!

Brilliant, Torq.
Go England!
The broadcasters calling the game just had a discussion about whether they should do away with extra time and just go straight to penalties. I'm all for it.

Especially when France is playing; then I would do away with the first 90 minutes as well, and just go straight to penalties.

How about just doing away with France.
Brilliant.
We should run UEFA, guys. Seriously.

Btw...Anti, do you know that the next World Cup is over at yours? (2026 in US/Mexico/Canada)....
That will be fun (if we qualify that is)!

US/Mexico/Canada
Imagine travelling between games from South Mexico to North of Canada. 0_0
I suppose taking a coach, like in Germany, won't be an option for teams.

Yes. My fair city tried to get a game or two played in our brand new soccer stadium and they said it wasn't big enough. So we proposed the football stadium, we'd have to make 10's of millions $ adjustments, so the closest host stadium to me is 6-7 hours away.

MANNOOOOOO......they had it on the foot!!!!! The Swiss I mean.....
and they said it wasn't big enough.
...that's to bad! But sometimes FIFA is just a *****!
Now...penalties....oh well....

Switzerland looks better in the extra time. So... our trick is working...
Come on England - three lions on the shirt!!!

Or , even worse, Miami to Vancouver. 😜

Actually the Swiss were better at the end....hopefully they don't regret now the lost chances to score!

Regardless, you're invited over. We'll make a road trip out of it. 🙂. You too, Torqster.

My son is rooting for England. I'm a centimeter away from beating the hell out of him. 😀
That would be so legendary! 😀
You know it!! Books would be written about it. 😄

Na ja....still....I don't see this english team with the crown...

:(
Our reverse supporting didn't work. Oh, well...
Books would be written about it. 😄
And those wouldn't be books for small children either! :)

Lovely news.
A win on penalties and a new government all in the same weekend...
