I can't believe how they can be so positive in the first half yet be so negative in the last 15 minutes.

The game was crying out for Vardy. He brings on fucking Milner.

Kane was poor, Rooney was poor. Vardy on for Kane half time.

Thought Rooney had his best England game in a long time, but that's probably more down to the poor Russian midfield than anything else.

Agreed on Kane though. We were crying out for a bit more pace in the box, Vardy was ideal.

Paris atmosphere is insane. Turks, Croatians, French, swedes, Romanians, Irish all having a big party.

Was a little trouble last night (in Paris) with English fans but that's to be expected really. They just don't know how to behave.

We really enjoyed the opening match and ceremony and now today we go to Turkey Croatia. It should be a red hot atmosphere. Hopefully no trouble.

Paris is filling up with Irish though and tonight there will be a crazy party.

I'm a bit late to the party, my predictions were France, Switzerland, Slovakia, England to win their games, but what can you do. For today:

Croatia 1:0 Turkey
Poland 2:1 Northern Ireland
Germany 2:0 Ukraine

By the way, I'm shocked that English fans hate Russians so much. You were fighting like crazy in the streets. Respect!

Nothing to do with the gangs of French from the Marseille ghettos or the Russian lunatic fans of course. Put your chip-on-the-shoulder  prejudice away please.

 

I see the same has happened against the N Ireland fans overnight.

Last night was a huge party, Northern Irelanders partied with our fans, but fights broke out when they all got attacked by fans of Nice. Strange really for club fans to stir up trouble.

What are you talking about!? The Russians were the agitators. The Russians in the stadium were beyond ridiculous too.

In no way am I suggesting that the English were the agitators - sorry if it came across like that. The way they behaved in the stadium is typical for them (we knew what it means "to take the English leave", now we know what it means "to take the Russian leave" ). That's how they behaved during Euro in Poland as well. What surprised me, was that the British and Russians are so willing to fight against each other. Wasn't aware of this level of animosity.

Well like I posted here before the tournament started their were some fights going on because some hooligans were screaming 'where is isis now'. Also the booing when Russian's anthem played annoyed me. Then again hooligans are everywhere.

Anyway England deserved to win but don't really know if England played good, Russian's Team is not great and not belong to the top ten teams of this tournament so playing good against Russia should be expected, let England play against Germany and then we can see how good England's team is.

England played well. Best performance in a while and created a lot of chances. Best team by far, Russia didn't deserve the draw. I agree with people that Kane should of been taken off. Alli should of been off also.

IN PARIS!  London is closer to Paris than Marseilles is! The gangs from Marseilles probably stay there.

OT: I usually think very low of England but this time I was positively surprised with their game. To bad they did not score goals. For professional players they got traped in offside position quite much. England will surely go to the quarer finals.

Russia had a tough time with England but will probably be quite good against weaker teams.

 

Today:

Croatia 1:1 Turkey

Poland 1:1 Northern Ireland (My Polish relatives will be unhappy)

Germany 2:1 Ukraine
