Wonder Goal by Payet in the last 10 minuutes in that match or it would have been 1-1 France Romania. He plays for West Ham United.

Left footed upper shelf; excellent.

it's boiling hot in Marseille on le "Vieux-Port" between english and russian fans.
many wounded people, chairs on the streets, broken bottles
a journalist has just interviewed an english drunk fan saying that they were here to fight !
Tonight should a shameful show of drunk pigs on the streets of Marseille.
let's hope the show will be pleasant in the stadium !

What I just saw on BFM TV is really scary, officials claim that the fan zone and the stadium are safe though.

I hear about those English hooligans again. What is it about English people? Why can't they behave abroad?

the disastrous thing is that lots of english fans (or hooligans ?) are forbidden of stadiums in england but they can easily go abroad and create troubles.

what is the english police doing ? why do they let them get out so easily ?

yes absolutely terrifying.
we saw a guy who hit the head of a guy with a chair

for the moment, things seem to cool down.

Congrats to Wales who won against Slovakia, 2-1! This is only the third championship Wales takes part in. And the first since 1964! So the Welch people have waited more than 50 years for this victory!

These are football hooligans. Nothing wrong with English people. Please.

You're right, Hansie. I'll rephrase it then: Why do English football fans always carry a tail of hooligans and criminals?

Here is my prediction for tonight's game: England-Russia, 2-0.

Hansie is in the lead now. Well done!

'Always'? They don't. Secondly, it's a very small minority who misbehave. Besides, do you believe there is never any trouble amongst Polish fans; or how about the far-right connections of many who follow Italian football? Black footballers are still subject to savage racial abuse across the Eastern European leagues; it's been practically eradicated from the English game.

It's amazing that two people in the online game here actually predicted the first two scores correctly.

As predictable, I fell down in the table as TomSea, so we will see.

I would not get on the fans of England for instigating violence; but who knows? But it really doesn't sound like it. It does sound like a few have acted like bad mannered tourists, yelling obnoxious things and the like.

A great header by Russian Vasilij Berezutskij in the last minute seals the result, 1-1, between Russia and England. The first draw in the championship.

And my opportunity for a great recovery in the chart - until the next game, that is...

It should also be noted that those rioting have no intention of actually attending any matches. They solely go there to get boozed-up and fight. I don't expect there will be any significant issues with England supporters in the stadiums.

Now let's talk about the Russian hooligans...

[www.dailymail.co.uk]

Heck, I gave into looking into this more, I know many people don't like the Daily Mail; but I am just looking at the pictures and reading the story. I looked at a few other news outlets too, the Sun. It makes one a bit angry.

We know Stones fans come from everywhere and we know many countries have had these kinds of problems, no one needs their ethnic toes stepped on.

Mick and BFF Matt Clifford and Lucas were there, bringing some dignity to proceedings.

I'm afraid you don't understand at all what the "French bashing" is all about.

there is something wrong with English people !

just have a look at the previous Euros :
- 2012 : in Poland/Ukraine
- 2008 : in Austria/Switzerland
- 2004 : in Portugal
- 2000 : in Belgium/Netherlands

No problem with English fans during these tournaments.

1998 : world cup in France. Incidents in Marseille because of English fans. Troubles in Lille with German fans (they almost killed a French gendarm).

Euro 2016 : incidents with English fans in France.

maybe you don't want to see the reality but facts are facts.
why do english fans behave like wild animals when they come to France ?

I thought the policeman actually got killed; good if I am wrong.

Okay, If nothing more happens on the hooligan front: Can we agree on sticking to the games then? I think this blame game is scaring people off.
It shouldn't be like that. I have erased some of my posts in order not to upset anyone.

Brexit...

Lafarge and Boris J kind of people.

What's the matter with German head coach Joachim Löw? He used to eat his own snot but now he's down to this: [www.youtube.com]

Happy that there was no trouble yesterday between Germany and Ukraine.
Let's carry on that way.

Not many goals so far, but some real great ones.
Moldric (Croatia) against Turkey is my favorite so far, though Payet's goal was a
of great beauty too.
And congratulations to Torres, who is ahead in our prediction game after 7 matches.

Just as long as the guitar plays, let it steal your heart away
