Not having watched any of the games (besides Belgium's last 12 minutes or so against Hungary, including the third and fourth goal) I have no idea if Wales is any good. Belgium seems to be in excellent form, in any case.

Not much left of Belfrager's British bugbear now anyway
Justice always win. Brexit with all of them.
It's the last time you applaud here, by the way what are you still doing here, asked Junker to the UK representatives.  :lol:

This is beautiful.
A matter of attitude.

…is fotball really what captivates the European mind? :) Such intelligence and perspicuity! No wonder — nah. It's pointless. They are what they are.

I will believe the UK will exit the EU when *Theresa May* invokes Article 50. Til then, I ain't buying it. Also, interesting to note that the long-vanquished Lib Dems are seeing a resurgence in party membership.



*= While idiotic enough to call for such an election, can the Tories really be stupid enough to have Donald Drumpf-Lite (Boris Johnson) lead the party? May seems more sensible.

The British Pound is in free fall and may hit parity with US dollar by the end of the year . the First Minister of Scotland is calling a second Scottish independence referendum "highly likely" , but never mind. Better watch the match :yes:

The UKIP representative, not the UK representatives. The Scottish representative was given a standing ovation.

The start and end to every story is the same. But what comes in between you have yourself to blame.

Jean Claude Juncker, the Boris Yeltsin of the EU is funny.
Isn't he? ;)

BTW, did you also enjoy Juncker kissing Farage? :)

France: Romania, Albania, Ireland
Iceland: Austria, England

Belgium opened the score with probably the most awesome goal, but then lost to Wales 1-3. My condolences @Frenzie

The most awesome goal? Hm, I suppose I should look that up. I only saw a vid of a missed header (or whatever it's called).

Which means nobody, absolutely nobody, has won against Portugal be it in regular time or by penalties or any other way. Isn't it?
A matter of attitude.

So, one of the semi finals will be Portugal against Wales.
What an irritating match.

These Walesians (?) are the very example of individual's mediocrity turned into satisfactory collective. We don't like to play against such teams.

Anyway, playing is not our intention, we're much better faking faults, it will be our tactic. :)
A matter of attitude.

I think they are happy if you just call them Welsh.  ;)

It could be an interesting game, Ronaldo playing against his teammate Gareth Bale. Bragging rights for the new season to the victor. :up:
