UEFA Euro 2020 (June 11 2021-July 11 2021)

Yeah, I got mad and watched last night's episode of Rick and Morty. Then I come back and found out I missed probably the most exciting 2nd half of the tournament

 

[The Dog]

Wow, this is what I expected in the Belgium/Portugal match, but not 7 goals

 

[The Dog]

8 goals, 5-3 Spain, Croatia has 'em right where they want 'em

 

[The Dog]

Seriously tho, I really can't imagine Croatia tying it up again, in these last 15 minutes or so, to force a shootout

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Oh boy. Swiss strike first

 

[MAD]

No way Switzerland are beating France

No way Switzerland are beating France

Don’t think they will, but you never say never in this tournament.

Just heartbreaking for the Swiss fans

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Swiss should have gone up 2-0 on that penalty and instead are down 2-1… all in 2 minutes. Wooow.

 

[MAD]

Just heartbreaking for the Swiss fans

Not anymore

 

[Nash_Vol97]

What a day this has been. Two amazing games.

 

[MAD]

Looks like we are headed to penalty kicks.
Swiss have nothing to lose.
All the pressure will be on France, since they are the heavy favorites.

 

[YankeeVol]

Wow. France goes down

 

[Nash_Vol97]

My oh my. Down goes France

 

[n_huffhines]

Dude

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Mbappe was disappointing this euros. No goals, quite a few missed opportunities and then that big missed penalty to oust France. Shame.

 

[MAD]

Hoping for more excitement

What an amazing day of soccer, just 2 great matches. I love when a huge underDog pulls off an upset like the Swiss did, today.

Edit: 14 goals today in 2 games and one extra time (30 minutes). Crazy, I bet that's more the any day that had 4 matches

[Nash_Vol97]

As good as the matches were today, the Euros may have just peaked. There will no doubt be more excitement left in the tournament, but I don’t think another day of games tops today. Just two really great games.

 

[The Dog]

Have I told u all why I'm such a soccer fan ? Long story, but if u all wanna here it, I will post it

I lied, it's simple, my reason is because of my son. He wasted his talent, but who am I to judge, I did, too. U just hate when your son makes the same mistake u did, when u preached to him, not, too. But, I could be ruthless on him, when I thought he was not giving it, his all. Probably, my biggest regret. We have talked about it, since he has gotten into his early to mid-twenties and I was way too hard on him. He has forgiven me, but I wish I could do it all over again.

Edit: sorry guys, got a little buzzed last night and got in my feelings, but still the truth
