Yay!! We have just witnessed history. Poland (silver and bronze medal winners in the World Cup) has won its first ever game in history of Euro

I'm so happy that we've managed to score that goal and get the win. I like what I saw, we dominated the whole game, we are deep, have very, very good players. I think it's a given we're going to advance to the next round.

Now let's see what the Germans have in store for us

Man don't celebrate too soon. They do choke in big tournaments like England lol. Hopefully this year changes that.

My concerns were mainly: 

1) When they got the ball near the box, they moved the ball too slow and allowed defenders to man up easily when a striker made a move.  

2) Last 20mins shows some gaps in defence which perhaps a better team would exploit and not thumble the ball like NI did. 

 

Perhaps it was nerves of trying to win their first ever Euro Game, so now with that win under their belt hopfully they play better.
