With 3rd place teams qualifying to the knock out round, weaker teams could sneak through getting a few draws. So they are playing more defensively? Recent success of teams like Leicester and Atletico Madrid, defending deep/ceding possession, have shown how 'weaker' teams can combat 'stronger'/more proactive teams?

Looking forward to England v Wales tomorrow. They share a rivalism in rugby, so I imagine they also do in football. 

I am hoping Gareth Bale can get on the scoresheet for England.

France through with a game to spare. Will top the group with a draw or better against a fairly limited Swiss side.

God that Germany v Poland game was absolutely dire.

Though at least Milik provided some unintended comedic value.

Pol very deep Ger missing the final pass. Lewandoski, 2 games 0 shots on target.

I feel like the universe cheated me out of 4 hours of my life today. England/Wales was awful (but engrossing because Wales gave it such a good nudge). Germany/Poland was just awful.

I have been using footytube, they'll tend to have a number of clips for each game with anywhere between 2 and 20 minutes of highlights depending on what you're after/what you have time for. Or depending on game quality. If there's anyone out there with the skill to pull together 20 minutes of Germany v Poland highlights...

Appalling from Sweden, really quite a weak squad they have this year. With such a weak squad I'm sure they'll be happy that they're not getting pummeled. 

Vintage Italy though, great defending with the impenetrable all-Juventus backline and a goal outta nowhere in the 88th minute from Eder. Is there a rule or something to only score goals after the 87th minute this tournament? So many late goals!

Ibra looks absolutely had it.

Late goal notwithstanding, Italy-Sweden is the worst game I've watched so far (well over 50% of games, although I did miss Germany-Poland, which I hear was a stinker).

Well, the direness of Sweden's attack in combination with Italy's complacency to sit back as well as a lack of any decent Italian strikers these Euros was never going to equate into anything aesthetically pleasing.

OK, so who was in the Croatian end throwing flares?

Hard to believe Croatian fans would do that at that stage.

What a bunch of dumb arses some of those Croatian supporters are!!!!  There side has played really well, leading 2-1 and only a few minutes to play and they fans start throwing flares onto the field...probably about 8 or 9. The games stops while the officials clear them up and then a explosive cracker gets thrown at an official. Ref calls everyone to the side line. Croation players run to quiet the fans down.

Game restart after a 8 min break. You can see the Croatian players are rattled. Long ball into the Croation box, hits defenders hand, penalty and it finishes 2-2. What a heartbreaker for the Croatian team. They played really well and scored two great goals. THe shot stats were something like 17 to 2 to Croatia

There will be more about this.UEFA will come down hard on Croatia. They will definetly get fined and they could lose points. Sometimes you wonder about the mentality of some football fans.

Absolute muppets with the flares then fighting amongst themselves looool.

It was brilliant to see them drop points, especially after they had dominated the Czechs so hard for the first hour or so!

Former Croatia manager Slaven Bilic on ITV: "It is very sad that we have to talk about this. We have an issue. It started six, seven, eight years ago. There are many fans who are against the Croatian FA and we are paying fines all the time. We have played games behind closed doors. It is unbelievable what those fans are doing.

"There is a riot between themselves. You can see the majority of the fans telling them not to do it. But some of them are on a mission. It is probably not the last time they will do it.

"They think the Croatian FA rarely plays in Split, they think it's all about Zagreb. It is a clash between the north and the south."

If correct that is a shame.
