I think it was fair, Belgium did have the ball but Italy defense worked pretty well and they scored 2 good goals

Won it very practically

Yeah, take that other people... the comeback is real!!

Great for Pelle to score, if someone once said to me years ago that Saints would have the first choice Italian striker and he's mainly on the bench, I'd laugh at them :P

Hmm, pie.

Looking back at some sites a lot of people had Belgium as the favorite today, I never realized the expectations were so high for this team.

lol... Blatter confirms hot and cold balls theory

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ex-fifa-president-sepp-blatter-8184465

Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter has sensationally claimed he witnessed a draw for a European competition being rigged.

The 80-year-old refused to say which tournament it was, but revealed the balls containing the names of teams were either heated or cooled to help identify them.

In the interview with Argentine publication La Nacion, Blatter also claimed only one team had ever successfully benefited from such "cheating".

When asked whether draws had ever been rigged, he replied: "Yes. I saw it with my own eyes and it was like cheating.

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!)

Looks like Italy and Germany are the only teams so far who are playing football.

What? The tournament has been amazing so far with beautiful, creative, offensive football. Italy, Poland, Croatia, Germany, England, Belgium, Ireland, all have impressed with entertaining football, and to some extent Spain and France.

Just kicking against the ball and having good individual moments isn't good football. You have to be strong as a team and back each other up. That's why Belgium failed so miserably and why France barely won.

Italy and Germany had the best team performance so far in terms of tactic and confidence in play.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I was at the Turkey Croatia match yesterday. The atmosphere was crazy. Very happy I went. first time in the pairc de Princes too.

Today we go to Ireland vs sweden. Going to be another crazy atmosphere. I hope Ireland can we but most of us aren't expecting a good result.

As the flag says, we're here to take part, not to take over XD hopefully it's not true!

Wow, you're at the games?! So lucky.

Are you irish?

Yeah I'm Irish. Was at the Irish match today. The atmosphere was amazing. Going to 6 group stage matches in total.

Ireland pretty much stopped playing after they made their goal. Unfortunate, but deserved result.

That's typical Ireland. As soon as they score they shit the pants and stop playing football.
