Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #575 – 2016-06-28, 20:13:31 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.

Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #577 – 2016-06-29, 02:57:31 …is fotball really what captivates the European mind? Such intelligence and perspicuity! No wonder — nah. It's pointless. They are what they are.
Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #578 – 2016-06-29, 04:44:29 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.

Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #593 – 2016-07-01, 20:54:27 Belgium opened the score with probably the most awesome goal, but then lost to Wales 1-3. My condolences @Frenzie
Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #594 – 2016-07-01, 20:59:11 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).

Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #597 – 2016-07-02, 11:55:01 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.

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