  Wow Ukraine should have scored. That ball was over the line. If they lose now... Riots in the square tonight!
• DeyDurkie5

  

  unreal they don't have goal technology. They put a linesmen on the line to cure the problem, and it only makes it worse. How the fuck can you not see that? He was literally square to the line, saw the ball, and didn't even react.

  Goal-line technology needs to be in place yesterday.

  
  Agreed. I want England to win but that was awful.
  
  Also, Rooney certainly found his groove as the match progressed.
• Midstate01

  

  Good point by the announcers. Both of Ukraine's best chances were offsides..still goal technology is needed.
• gorocks99

  

  Hell yeah, at least Sweden are going to get a result and knock the French into a death match with the Spanish. Go down swinging.

  Beautiful volley!
• gorocks99

  

  That's up there for goal of the tournament so far IMO

• Automatik

  

  I missed that.
  
  So the ball was over? England thought they cleared off the line...no goal?

  Yeah, and the worst part is that black dot at the bottom of the picture is the 5th official's head. Thats really his only job.
• Automatik

  

  Yeah I was just going to say that. Didn't they implement the extra official for that EXACT purpose?
  
  I know there are some mixed feelings regarding the line technology, but you'd have to think it will get an even further consideration after this.
• Laley23

  

  They are gonna riot in Ukraine. That blown call was HUGE.
  
  And that Ibra goal was sick. But only 3rd best for me this tourney. Ballotelli is starting to become my favorite over Welbeck. The focus to hit a full volley like that with a defender all over you is insane.
• DeyDurkie5

  

  The ibra goal is better than the ballotelli goal for me.
• ohiobucks1

  

  The guy on Ukraine was offsides anyways. So it should have never even gotten that far
• Classyposter58

  

  :laugh: at Germany/Greece. Those two countries absolutely despise each other at the moment

  Euros always seem to have 1 big run from a team. Czechs are the only team who can make it happen, cause Germany should put the hammer down on Greece...so them.
• wildcats20

  

  Does it go winners of the first 2 games play each other and winners of the 2nd 2 games play each other?
  
  Just like a normal bracket?
