Decent pride and passion from the teams singing their respective National anthems. Good start.

When I was at the 2012 Olympics they were sending out RC cars to collect the shots used in the shot putting competition.
Really good idea as the cars were all operated by children, who appeared to be loving it.

Both a great advert for VW, we were all watching it weren't we, but it also united everyone in Europe in hoping it breaks ?

That makes sense as the shots would need constant collection.

I didn't even notice the make.

Interesting - Scotland will 'take the knee' before the England game as a show of solidarity with their England friends and colleagues as a result of the booing of the England team before their last game. Normal hostilities can then commence.

In other matches the Scottish team will stand.

That seems slightly odd. The point of taking the knee is to highlight racism within football and make people think. If they are going to do it in the game v England then why not throughout?

I really hope this isn’t Turkey’s approach to every game. Zzz.

Italians getting flustered because they think they should have had 10 penalties for handball. Ref has done well and a couple of yellows for them wouldn't go amiss. ?

I was just hoping it pulled away a few feet as the referee went to collect the ball...

They will need that to collect most of England’s shots.
