Last time there was a comedy of errors in a match during this tournament it ended in a high scoring game for the team that didn't have the howler. I hope it happens again.

Spain gift Croatia a goal there, what an own goal. The keeper Unai Simon needs to practice his ball control. Terrible mistake there.

Did he even touch it? I thought it he missed  completely xD

I'm 99% sure he touched it,

It's just arrogance all round. 

"Oh we're so comfortable in possession, I'm going to absolutely fire this pass back to my goalie, on target, and not even bother keeping it on the deck"

"Oh look how casually I trap this really terrible pass back before I recycle posses - oh shit"

If you were to watch Eng v Cron and this game back to back, you’d think that Croatia had a new squad

The 9th own goal of the tournament.

Wasn't the record before this 3? Absolutely nonsense this is.

You've got to feel for Enrique in some ways.

Some players must have covid induced brain damage to be scoring ogs like this :ph34r:

Spain have some strong runners, they’d probably be more dangerous on the counter. It seems mosts of their proactive passes are coming from chips from Laporte

England must have been in the hardest group.

You have to wonder, if Croatia advances after what the Czechs did yesterday.  

So much for that Spain equalizes.

Nice goal by Sarabia, he's been one of their best players at these Euros so far.

Ruined his career moving to PSG. 

Could've been the main man at another club.

Spain really aren't bad. Extremely frustrating but they aren't bad.

They lack Ansu Fati.

He should have stayed at Sevilla to be honest. He was perfect for them and they are closer and closer to challenging for the title all the time. If they kept players like that, they would go on and actually achieve it.

Another wasted player currently on the pitch is Laporte at City. A complete waste and he'll be trapped there now as they won't sell him.

Is it just me or none of the 'big' national teams feel big anymore ?

Football's going through a big transition period it seems.

It's same at club level. There aren't really any top sides right now.

Makes you wonder where it ends up at club level. Liverpool to me kind of sum up where it's gone - they're a top team but I do feel even then they are largely that because they're better than the sum of their parts, and their recruitment model is built around buying a very specific player. I feel like that's the new age top club. Man City are similar as well really.

Been saying that for a while now. We won the CL with relative ease in the knockout stages. I can’t think of the last time a club won the CL with that much comfort.

Well who are the superstars of the next generation? Who takes up the mantle of being the most globally recognised player?
