    This is just more Sir Gareth apologist behaviour. There's shit and then there's what we've served up in this tournament.

    Man tracking the nameless Neapolitan was a bit, er, half-arsed in his efforts.

    Rather than posting about that being inevitable this morning I should have put money on it.

    I didn't make the post with Southgate in mind, it's just true. I have no issue saying that England and Southgate have been awful this tournament. I just don't think it matters that much.

    For the first time in about 10 years, Ronaldo tested the keeper with a free kick.

    Red card for the republic (I reject this 'Czechia' codswallop) so might be down to the Georgians now.

    That red card for the Czech Republic was some bullshit.

    Not sure what we expect when they’re being managed by Phil Mitchell though.

    Ronaldo's going to be sent off if he carries on like this. This ref hates him and rightly so. A vile man.

    It'll need something like that to help Georgia hold out here, there's no way they will otherwise (or without relying Sir Gareth's deal with the devil).

    He's so good, UEFA are actively conspiring against him with that red card for the Czechs. Shameful.

    Portugal effectively choose their opponents here. If they stop Georgia from qualifying then Hungary qualify and they play them, otherwise they get Slovenia.

    That's a fantastic save.

    Also that's a penalty for me.

    Portuglol.

    Edit: actually on the angle VAR was looking at I don't think it is.

    Shame he saved it really as it'd have been disallowed.

    I don't get how that is really that 'clear and obvious', there's contact, but little more than a touch and nowhere near the level of contact on that Scotch lad.

    The Georgian keeper (I don't dare to try writing his name) has been immense in every game so far. Absolute steal for Valencia.
