Euro 2016 - hype, anticipation and general excitement

xpost all he needs is a bag of Doritos

he looks like a Glaswegian on his way to the buy a carry out

"less Hapsburg, more hapless" ho ho ho

hmm but on second view it did seem like he had a purpose

<3 Stieber

They wrecked my longed-for Austr0-Hungar1 scoreline.

from his wiki page: Király is recognizable for wearing a pair of grey tracksuit bottoms instead of shorts in almost every match he plays,[2] which he says he chose for comfort after playing on rough surfaces[3], and grey in particular because they bring him good luck.[4] The trousers are inspired by Phil Campbell of Edinburgh.

Well, that's one England fan who won't be going to the 2018 World Cup.

xp it's either trackies or knees covered in scar tissue from those unforgiving blaes pitches

'iceland is used to the NORTHERN lights, ronaldo is used to the LIMElight' can we get a sub for this fool?

actually i think the commentator's desk will need all three of its subs after saying variations on 'gudmundssen' for 90 mins

heart pounding

Somehow I will forever expect Deco to be in the Portuguese squad.

goddammit can't we have at least one gubbing

I've got Cold As Ice by Foreigner queued up for when Iceland score.

ah balls

Anyone get the sense that Ronaldo is genuinely annoyed when Nani scores?

what does it mean when they flash the word 'Orange' up at the bottom of the screen?

there are ads for the phone company in the pitchside hoardings?

Get in there!

Yay!

YEAH

:D

There are some slack defences in this tournament

I blame EU freedom of movement

Is anyone actively rooting for Portugal here?

Inasmuch as it affects my Predictor score but not with huge conviction. I like Cron tho

You've got your priorities straight then. I predicted a Portugal loss bcz fuck cron etc

sorry I can see now it's sponsorship. in the lower third. there's a Hisense one too. i didn't realise the BBC was allowed to do that. i know it's not their feed but still. when they cover T In The Park they use their own made-up logo rather than the one with the Tennent's 'T'

fucking sublime moment down the right side there for the brundsunderssons

Probably it not being their picture feed is what makes the difference. Had noticed Hisense but not Orange

Kari Arnason used to be a reliably great lower league signing round about Football Manager 2013

oh god here it comes

oh ffs stop fouling

LOL Cron

haha Naldo ass

That's what you call a coupon-buster. Portugal almost reliably effete

nice of Cron to offer his congratulations to the heroic Icelanders

The Group of Life

Portugal got sonned

@rvkgrapevine GOALIE LIKE THE CLIFF FACE AT DYRHÓLAEY THE ONLY THING THAT WILL DESTROY HIM IS CENTURIES OF COASTAL EROSION. #ISL #Euro206

*clicks follow*

Cristiano Ronaldo: "Iceland only tried to defend... they had two chances and then did not try to score."
More Ronaldo: "They celebrated like they had won the Euro cup or something. That's a small mentality. That's why they'll do nothing."

I'm sad for CR, I wish he could be happier or something.

He can't be happy because he'll go to his grave knowing that everyone considered him the world's second best footballer.

I love the flourish of calling out the team from a nation of 300k for their small mentality, like thanks very much cron, that's deep
