    Lovely swerving shot puts Denmark ahead.
    Long period of Danish possession leading up to the goal.

    Game should open up nicely now.
    Wales are going to have to come from behind.

    Denmark looking closer to a second goal than Wales to equalizing.

    Looking dangerous for Wales at the moment.
    Need to get to halftime only one down.

    1-0 at halftime.
    Denmark looking the best team for most of the half.
    Bale is going to regret missing his chance.
    Only one Wales had really.

    Need a bit of Bale and Ramsey magic.

    Seems like this one is practically over. 2-0 Denmark, not breaking too much of a sweat to beat Wales. Denmark has just missed a third goal by a hair.

    Or 3/4 because Northern Ireland did play in the qualifiers, and failed to qualify.

    Hopefully the other fourth will be gone too, if your Germany that shows up is the Good Germany.

    Kjaer got injured in the 75th minute and was subbed out after long medical assistance. This sucks for AC Milan. Actually there is an argument to be said about a club fan rooting against his club's players in Euro tournaments, for two reasons: 1) too many matches in an already tiresome season; risk of injury increases 2) the better our players do internationally, the more they become targets for transfer offers. So I should actually be happy that Rebic wasn't doing well for Croatia, LOL. I can't really root against my idols, but I see the point of not really willing to see one's club's players having a deep run.

    -----------

    Denmark 4-0 Wales, full time. Quite remarkable, these Danes! Wow!

    Poor old Wales.
    They were outclassed.

    ITALIA (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Di Lorenzo, Bonucci, Acerbi, Spinazzola; Barella, Jorginho, Verratti; Berardi, Immobile, Insigne.

    Full force! Best possible line-up.

    OK, the refs are all from England. If they dislike us as much as I dislike them, we're in trouble, LOL

    [Present company excluded. I love Montegriffo]

    One post hit, one great save by the Austrian goalie, otherwise we couldn't produce much despite dominating possession and attempts. Well, Italy often plays better in second half, so we'll see. The Austrian haven't really threatened Donnarumma.

    12 shots to 1 in the first half.

    Austria has played pretty well, but the dam is about to break....
