Hungary does not believe that there are 4 points from 2 matches of Euro 2016!
The team of Hungary participated for the first time in 30 years of great football forum but surprisingly is the leader in the standings in Group F Euro 2016 after the second round. In the previous match Hungarians ended 1: 1 with Iceland and previously defeated Austria with 2: 0.
Thus Magyars have 4 points atop the standings before Iceland and Portugal with 2 points
and 1 point with Austria. The team is virtually in the next stage.
Captain Balázs Dzhudzhak said: "surpassed all our expectations and dreams!"
Coach Bernd Storck said: "We have 4 points. If someone had told me this before the tournament, I would not have thought possible. We presented fantastically against Iceland and in the end we celebrated and we got one point. Still it seems incredible that we are talking about such things. We proved that our ranking of this championship is not accidental and deserve respect because nobody thought that we will have 4 points at this stage. Our goal is to stay disciplined and we'll see what happens. "
Right back Attila Fiola miss the game against Iceland because of an ankle injury and is questionable for the upcoming game.
Adam Salai most likely to be cutting edge in attack.
Portugal Euro 2016-50 impact, but only 1 goal and 2 points!
Portugal definitely stuck at Euro 2016. After 1: 1 with Iceland in their first match of Group F, Selecao reached only 0: 0 Austria in the second and certainly will be eliminated from the tournament, if not win against Hungary.
Portugal defeated Austria on all indicators of the "Parc des Princes" but break throw and could not score after 23: 3 shots including a penalty from which Cristiano Ronaldo hit the post in the 79th minute - his third of the match.
In fact, the Portuguese hold the record for most blows of the tournament in the first two rounds - a total of 50 for two games. Objectives 22 of them are Ronaldo, as he fired over at least 9 of teams in the tournament.
Meanwhile Cristiano recorded the worst season of his career in terms of missed penalties for Portugal and Real Madrid. Eleven of 13-meter strike in the campaign so far, CR7 has realized 8 and missed 5, making 61.5 percent success rate.
Cristiano Ronaldo said after the match with Austria: "Bad luck we will not continue forever. I missed a penalty and had other positions, so I'm sad. But this is football, we played well and we could have scored ... but this bad luck will not last forever. All we have to believe that we will go! "
The midfielder Adrien Silva said: "Nobody in the team has not given up and we will be able to respond appropriately to achieve your goal. I do not think we deserve to be in this position. We toil hard and now we have a bitter feeling. I believe, however, that battle our spirit and our confidence is still high enough level. Our only problem is that we fail to score, although creating positions. If you did not have these situations, then it would be much more complicated. The results we achieve are not the best, but that does not mean that we are playing badly. On the contrary, against Hungary will show the best we are capable of, and the results will come. "
Rafael Gereyro and Andre Gomes missed last workout and are questionable for the upcoming clash.
So much for the Hungarians, here and Bernd Storck. And so we could not work at the time? Well, you see, Europeans better laid out and perform coaching guidance than the teams of the former Soviet Union. The Magyars until losing and generally show good football. The Portuguese's disappointing their fans. Some fatal misfortune pursues European Brazilians in the final stage of the attack. They have so much on goal beat in the first two rounds, how many other team in the tournament does not break, but still did not score any goals, the benefit has not yet been passed. As a result, after this game Cristiano Ronaldo and the company may even go home after the other losers who have already flown to Moscow and Bucharest. Let's see, today is Portuguese and burst, the same can not continue this forever. Well, if that happens, then I'm sorry to be the old days of Gabor Kiraya.

Iceland fail to win his first victory of the European Championship after finishing 1: 1 draw with Hungary. Boys Lars Lagerback took the lead and held the lead until the last minute when a ridiculous own goal took them three points.

Despite its status as a football dwarf Iceland did not lose any of the 2 meeting so far played in France and managed to score in the doors and Portugal and Hungary;
Austria came to a draw 0: 0 Portugal, mainly because of missed from the spot of Cristiano Ronaldo in the match. The boys of Marcel Koller disappointed so far in the tournament, having not yet scored.

Iceland will try to offer yet another surprise against a strong team from Austria. The boys of Marcel Koller so far in debt to their fans, and this is the last chance for them in the tournament. Austria has great players and demonstrates a serious class in qualifying that it's time to show and land in France.
Icelanders hitherto showed the biggest opportunists of the tournament - play defensively and managed to wait for the right moment to score. Austrians are even downright panicked who catch them, squashing them and show no merit, the only reason to have one point so far is that Cristiano Ronaldo did not know what world is the match Portugal against them. For these reasons, I do not expect an attractive and full of hits match. Each of the two teams has a chance to secure a place on a possible second round victory, but it will only provoke them to unfold in an offensive plan, simply because at the moment seems not are able to do more than we have seen so far.
In this group all the teams still claim the exit in the playoffs with the first two places, not to mention the third. Even dull Austrians still have a chance. But with this game, what they show today, it will be very difficult to get hold of even one point. Icelanders deserve exit in the playoffs. Let them have not yet won, but they can love only one will to win. Their desire to be Russians and Ukrainians, but alas. Alaba something drags his team as Ronaldo. Looks was a difficult season in European football superstars and of forces in the Euro is no more. I think today, the team lay out on the field without a trace, but the audience did not particularly delight goals.
Pleasant surprise Iceland was very close to a historic first win in their debut participation Eurofinal. Scandinavians made 1: 1 with the team of Hungary, having previously reached the same result against the big favorite Portugal.
After the meeting Icelanders were extremely disappointed by the missed victory would be historic for football in the small island nation. So before playing the last match in the group, boys Lars Lagerback have a total of two points, but have excellent chances to attack the place of eighth-finals. Good news at the headquarters of islanders that key does not match injured or punished players.
Team Austria also has its chances of continuing in the phase of direct elimination.Once the lead from Marcel Koller team started with defeat 0: 2 by Hungary in their last match Austrians charged scoreless draw against favorites Portugal. Luck was also on their side as rival missed a penalty midway through the second part. Thus Austria has a total of one point, but when victory has a chance to continue forward.

Both teams have so far played three matches with each other, as the Austrians have one victory and two meetings have ended in a draw.

Italy - Ireland
EURO 2016 - Group E
22/06/2016 22:00 EET
Italy is now eighth-finals of Euro 2016!
Italy ranks second round of Euro 2016 after beating Belgium (2: 0) and Sweden (1: 0) in the first two games. Squadra Azzurri can not miss the first position even losing to Ireland in their last meeting. This is because of the success over the Belgians who do are the only team with a chance to catch up in spot treatment.
Definitely Antonio Conte is riding high - in 12 competitive games he led the Azzurri is 9-3-0, with goal difference 19-7 and 6 clean sheets.
While Italians are proud to play with three in defense, it really is only when attacked. Otherwise, their defensive line with five.
Italian media write that coach Conte is expected to change almost the entire starting line-up for the match against Ireland. Gianluigi Buffon, who received a yellow card and a slight cold, will remain on the bench. Antonio Candreva is injured and is out for the match. Moreover, Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci, Pepe Graziano, Eder, Daniele De Rossi are part of the holders, who can also get a break to be ready 100% for the second round.
So the door is expected to stand Salvatore Sirigu. Angelo Ogbonna and Matteo Darmian replace Bonucci and Chiellini, just as Andrea Barzagli is expected to maintain a place among the holders in defense. Stephan El Shaaraui and Matthias December Schily are favorites to take their places on the wings. Thiago Motta, Stefano Sturaro and Alessandro Florence could also be given the opportunity to express themselves. Ciro Immobile and Simone Zaza will lead the attack.
Ireland still dreams of ranking!
Ireland has one point so far and still have chances to qualify for the eighth-finals of the European Championship, but only if they beat Italy.
The team is last in the standings of Group E with one point in its assets, as has Sweden. Namely Italy is a leader in flow with 6 points, while Belgium has three.
Captain John O'Shea said: "We must draw positive from our game in the first half against Belgium in the first match against Sweden. If we can repeat it, but with a little more discipline and self-control, we can win something against Italians. We need to relax, to realize and to leave Lille with the thought of winning. Against Belgium we wanted to play with quicker passes in the second half, we wanted to move out the game in their half, but we did not do anything like that. Just found in defense and allowed them to counter successfully. "
"Azzurri" still leaves a pleasant impression on the tournament. Some would say that the Italians are playing in a boring and dull football, and someone begins to admire their tactical podkovannosti and confidence in their own abilities. In a way, the Italians operate in the manner of a basketball team, where rarely someone catches on the opponent, the opponent's attack and waiting in the penalty. That's wards Antonio Conte, sometimes vvosmerom meet an opponent, waiting for his mistakes and blundered against the best defense in the continent, a priori impossible.
Conte said that in the upcoming game will give rest to many players. First of all, the meeting will miss Dzhanluidzhdi Buffon, who also has a little damage. It is necessary to give a break and someone from the three central defenders, given that the most senior - is Barzagli, I think the choice will fall on him. I do not rule out that will change and only nominal striker. Graziano Pelle was not as good in the last match, while, as the released Dzadzda noticeably refreshed game. Maybe replace and Eder, but taking into account the fact that the naturalized Brazilian has only just started to get used to the role of leader, Antonio Conte can leave it to the start. It is also likely to yield fresh players on the flanks, most likely, it will be Florence, which is pretty well established itself in this season. But, despite all these changes, the good old Italy will remain true to its principles and will be just as confident and impenetrable.
Italy - Ireland projected squads
Italy: Sirigu -Florence, Ogbonna, Bonucci, Chiellini, darmian - De Rossi, Motta, Giaccherini - zazen, Eder
Ireland: Randolph - Coleman, Clarke, O'Shea, Ward - Hendrick, McCarthy, Whelan, Brady -Hulahan- Long
Spare
Italy: Marchetti, Buffon, passwords, Stephan El Shaarawy, Mattia De Sciglio, Sturaro, Bernardeski, Pellet, Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne, Candreva, Barzagli
Ireland: Given, Westwood, Christie, KIOGE, Duffy, McClean, Meyler, Quinn, Keane, Murphy, McGeady, Walters
The Irish have always been famous for their fighting qualities and this championship is no exception. Wards Martin O'Neill ended up in a difficult situation, once in fact, in the group of death, the only thing that comforts the British - it's not a strong interest of the Italians eventually. But even if the "green" will win, it is unlikely, in the parallel match flared Belgians will miss three points, with an inert Sweden. However, the struggle for access to the third line, has not been canceled, so you should wait for this fight.
As mentioned above, Italy will not be zealous in the game, and take a short break, giving the chance to reservists. On the other side of Ireland, which is vital to winning, and therefore there is a risk and play forward.
This game should definitely look to all fans of the talent of Ibrahimovic. Rumor has it that perhaps this is the last game of Zlatan T-shirt of the national team. Well, if the Swedes will continue, what to believe with great difficulty, then we will see a part of the Swedish Ibra. So goes the legend, and all sorts of Dziuba and Shirokov did not even think about retirement in the case, which is clearly not theirs. Swedes look extremely convincing. Belgians seem to have woken up after the game with Italy and a strong legs carried forward the Irish. Today they will try to win and get the second place in the group. Wilmots made the right conclusions after the defeat, and now, I think, his critics poutihnut. Although Ibrahimovic alone can make the result and then it is certainly a mentor "Red Devils" nothing will help to keep your place. I suppose the Belgians victory.

Sweden - Belgium
EURO 2016 - Group E
22/06/2016 22:00 EET
Sweden and Belgium face in their last match of the group stage in a game that will decide the fate of second place.
Italy has already won first place in this group, but still is not sure who will return to the second position. Victory and equal arranged Belgium, while Sweden will need a victory here. After their first meeting extremely weak, Belgium showed a good game against Ireland, but we must note that their opponent played a very poor game and that was the main factor for the convincing victory 3-0 to the Reds. Definitely, Belgium must play around better, improve his game if he wants to achieve something in this championship - and there is only one chance to do it and it's here.
Therefore I expect at least slightly stronger performance than the Belgians and possibly losing this match, thus securing second place. Sweden, on the other hand, has no goal scored, as their only goal so far was actually auto goal of Ireland. Just by itself, Zlatan is not sufficient and the Swedes need more attack. They have nothing to lose in this game and I do not expect to leave the tournament without fail to score at least one goal.
The Belgians something they had done against Italy, but in the match against the Irish opened their full potential and showed its true face - a modern super team that crushes the opponent has a great midfield and a very effective Romelu Lukaku up front. Swedes do not shine with nothing special so far, and only goal, which noted it was an own goal by Ireland. Hardly will counteract successfully returns to the familiar class Azhar, located in the goal shape of your life Lukaku, calm and always ready to do a lot of "black" work CETA and other Belgians, whose ranks already shines and a new star - right back to "Bruges" Thomas Meunier, whom largest of Europe will kill if you continue to play the same way as against the Irish.
Sweden has no shot on target at Euro 2016!
The team of Sweden is about to break negative records in the history of European football forums to date. UEFA statistics showed that Tre Krunur not submitted a single blow in the net of his opponents in the first two games.
Although a star scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic in their composition, Scandinavians ended 1: 1 against the Republic of Ireland and fell to 0: 1 by Italy in their first two matches in Group E. The goal against the Irish, however, it was an own goal, even after submission of Ibra.
So the Swedes have won only one point in its assets so far and only victory over Belgium can provide continued participation in the European Championship.
Striker Marcus Berg defeat the goal drought, saying that creating scoring opportunities is the job of the whole team and not just the players up front. He added that the team still had a couple of good opportunities in the previous two games, which almost have become a goal.
Meanwhile, the biggest star of the Swedish football Zlatan Ibrahimovic announced that it will put an end to his career in the national team of the country immediately after his participation at Euro 2016: "My last game in the national team of Europe will be the last for me the national team. I hope this is not a match with Belgium. I'm very proud and will always carry with me the shirt of Sweden. "
34-year-old striker, who is tipped to secure a new addition to Manchester United's record for goals for the national team of Sweden with its 62 goals scored in 115 matches. At Euro 2016 he has not scored, but if he can do it, will become the first player realized goals from four European championships. So Ibra will be sorely to score in Belgium.
Belgium has three points of second place in Group E, where Italy is the leader with 6 points. Ireland and Sweden have won a point.
The team need at least a draw to qualify for the second round of the championship on the continent. The Belgians, however, have no chance of winning the first place, even in victory.
Competitors led by coach Mark Vilmots started with a disappointing loss with 0: 2 from Italy, then took partial revenge by convincing success with 3: 0 victory over Ireland in their second match.
Striker Romeo Lukaku said: "I think we played well in attack and in defense against Ireland. We did what we wanted - not only won 3 points, but we showed how we know how to play. The Italians are a very strong team with a fantastic coach. They did not get it but us awake and set to play. Well worked the ball in defense were stable, and the attackers used their chances. Now we must continue to progress throughout the tournament. "
Lukaku scored 2 hits in the second half against Ireland and would again be the biggest threat to the opposing defense.
This game should definitely look to all fans of the talent of Ibrahimovic. Rumor has it that perhaps this is the last game of Zlatan T-shirt of the national team. Well, if the Swedes will continue, what to believe with great difficulty, then we will see a part of the Swedish Ibra. So goes the legend, and all sorts of Dziuba and Shirokov did not even think about retirement in the case, which is clearly not theirs. Swedes look extremely convincing. Belgians seem to have woken up after the game with Italy and a strong legs carried forward the Irish. Today they will try to win and get the second place in the group. Wilmots made the right conclusions after the defeat, and now, I think, his critics poutihnut. Although Ibrahimovic alone can make the result and then it is certainly a mentor "Red Devils" nothing will help to keep your place. I suppose the Belgians victory.

Luck was also on their side as rival missed a penalty midway through the second part. Thus Austria has a total of one point, but when victory has a chance to continue forward.
Midfielder Zlatko Yunuzovich likely will miss the match because it was not fully recovered from an ankle injury, which received against Hungary.

Italy - Ireland
EURO 2016 - Group E
22/06/2016 22:00 EET
Italy is now eighth-finals of Euro 2016!
Italy ranks second round of Euro 2016 after beating Belgium (2: 0) and Sweden (1: 0) in the first two games. Squadra Azzurri can not miss the first position even losing to Ireland in their last meeting. This is because of the success over the Belgians who do are the only team with a chance to catch up in spot treatment.
Definitely Antonio Conte is riding high - in 12 competitive games he led the Azzurri is 9-3-0, with goal difference 19-7 and 6 clean sheets.
While Italians are proud to play with three in defense, it really is only when attacked. Otherwise, their defensive line with five.
Italian media write that coach Conte is expected to change almost the entire starting line-up for the match against Ireland. Gianluigi Buffon, who received a yellow card and a slight cold, will remain on the bench. Antonio Candreva is injured and is out for the match. Moreover, Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci, Pepe Graziano, Eder, Daniele De Rossi are part of the holders, who can also get a break to be ready 100% for the second round.
So the door is expected to stand Salvatore Sirigu. Angelo Ogbonna and Matteo Darmian replace Bonucci and Chiellini, just as Andrea Barzagli is expected to maintain a place among the holders in defense. Stephan El Shaaraui and Matthias December Schily are favorites to take their places on the wings. Thiago Motta, Stefano Sturaro and Alessandro Florence could also be given the opportunity to express themselves. Ciro Immobile and Simone Zaza will lead the attack.
Ireland still dreams of ranking!
Ireland has one point so far and still have chances to qualify for the eighth-finals of the European Championship, but only if they beat Italy.
The team is last in the standings of Group E with one point in its assets, as has Sweden. Namely Italy is a leader in flow with 6 points, while Belgium has three.
Captain John O'Shea said: "We must draw positive from our game in the first half against Belgium in the first match against Sweden. If we can repeat it, but with a little more discipline and self-control, we can win something against Italians. We need to relax, to realize and to leave Lille with the thought of winning. Against Belgium we wanted to play with quicker passes in the second half, we wanted to move out the game in their half, but we did not do anything like that. Just found in defense and allowed them to counter successfully. "
"Azzurri" still leaves a pleasant impression on the tournament. Some would say that the Italians are playing in a boring and dull football, and someone begins to admire their tactical podkovannosti and confidence in their own abilities. In a way, the Italians operate in the manner of a basketball team, where rarely someone catches on the opponent, the opponent's attack and waiting in the penalty. That's wards Antonio Conte, sometimes vvosmerom meet an opponent, waiting for his mistakes and blundered against the best defense in the continent, a priori impossible.
Conte said that in the upcoming game will give rest to many players. First of all, the meeting will miss Dzhanluidzhdi Buffon, who also has a little damage. It is necessary to give a break and someone from the three central defenders, given that the most senior - is Barzagli, I think the choice will fall on him. I do not rule out that will change and only nominal striker. Graziano Pelle was not as good in the last match, while, as the released Dzadzda noticeably refreshed game. Maybe replace and Eder, but taking into account the fact that the naturalized Brazilian has only just started to get used to the role of leader, Antonio Conte can leave it to the start. It is also likely to yield fresh players on the flanks, most likely, it will be Florence, which is pretty well established itself in this season. But, despite all these changes, the good old Italy will remain true to its principles and will be just as confident and impenetrable.
Italy - Ireland projected squads
Italy: Sirigu -Florence, Ogbonna, Bonucci, Chiellini, darmian - De Rossi, Motta, Giaccherini - zazen, Eder
Ireland: Randolph - Coleman, Clarke, O'Shea, Ward - Hendrick, McCarthy, Whelan, Brady -Hulahan- Long
Spare
Italy: Marchetti, Buffon, passwords, Stephan El Shaarawy, Mattia De Sciglio, Sturaro, Bernardeski, Pellet, Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne, Candreva, Barzagli
Ireland: Given, Westwood, Christie, KIOGE, Duffy, McClean, Meyler, Quinn, Keane, Murphy, McGeady, Walters
The Irish have always been famous for their fighting qualities and this championship is no exception. Wards Martin O'Neill ended up in a difficult situation, once in fact, in the group of death, the only thing that comforts the British - it's not a strong interest of the Italians eventually. But even if the "green" will win, it is unlikely, in the parallel match flared Belgians will miss three points, with an inert Sweden. However, the struggle for access to the third line, has not been canceled, so you should wait for this fight.
As mentioned above, Italy will not be zealous in the game, and take a short break, giving the chance to reservists. On the other side of Ireland, which is vital to winning, and therefore there is a risk and play forward.
This game should definitely look to all fans of the talent of Ibrahimovic. Rumor has it that perhaps this is the last game of Zlatan T-shirt of the national team. Well, if the Swedes will continue, what to believe with great difficulty, then we will see a part of the Swedish Ibra. So goes the legend, and all sorts of Dziuba and Shirokov did not even think about retirement in the case, which is clearly not theirs. Swedes look extremely convincing. Belgians seem to have woken up after the game with Italy and a strong legs carried forward the Irish. Today they will try to win and get the second place in the group. Wilmots made the right conclusions after the defeat, and now, I think, his critics poutihnut. Although Ibrahimovic alone can make the result and then it is certainly a mentor "Red Devils" nothing will help to keep your place. I suppose the Belgians victory.

Sweden - Belgium
EURO 2016 - Group E
22/06/2016 22:00 EET
Sweden and Belgium face in their last match of the group stage in a game that will decide the fate of second place.
Italy has already won first place in this group, but still is not sure who will return to the second position. Victory and equal arranged Belgium, while Sweden will need a victory here. After their first meeting extremely weak, Belgium showed a good game against Ireland, but we must note that their opponent played a very poor game and that was the main factor for the convincing victory 3-0 to the Reds. Definitely, Belgium must play around better, improve his game if he wants to achieve something in this championship - and there is only one chance to do it and it's here.
Therefore I expect at least slightly stronger performance than the Belgians and possibly losing this match, thus securing second place. Sweden, on the other hand, has no goal scored, as their only goal so far was actually auto goal of Ireland. Just by itself, Zlatan is not sufficient and the Swedes need more attack. They have nothing to lose in this game and I do not expect to leave the tournament without fail to score at least one goal.
The Belgians something they had done against Italy, but in the match against the Irish opened their full potential and showed its true face - a modern super team that crushes the opponent has a great midfield and a very effective Romelu Lukaku up front. Swedes do not shine with nothing special so far, and only goal, which noted it was an own goal by Ireland. Hardly will counteract successfully returns to the familiar class Azhar, located in the goal shape of your life Lukaku, calm and always ready to do a lot of "black" work CETA and other Belgians, whose ranks already shines and a new star - right back to "Bruges" Thomas Meunier, whom largest of Europe will kill if you continue to play the same way as against the Irish.
Sweden has no shot on target at Euro 2016!
The team of Sweden is about to break negative records in the history of European football forums to date. UEFA statistics showed that Tre Krunur not submitted a single blow in the net of his opponents in the first two games.
Although a star scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic in their composition, Scandinavians ended 1: 1 against the Republic of Ireland and fell to 0: 1 by Italy in their first two matches in Group E. The goal against the Irish, however, it was an own goal, even after submission of Ibra.
So the Swedes have won only one point in its assets so far and only victory over Belgium can provide continued participation in the European Championship.
Striker Marcus Berg defeat the goal drought, saying that creating scoring opportunities is the job of the whole team and not just the players up front. He added that the team still had a couple of good opportunities in the previous two games, which almost have become a goal.
Meanwhile, the biggest star of the Swedish football Zlatan Ibrahimovic announced that it will put an end to his career in the national team of the country immediately after his participation at Euro 2016: "My last game in the national team of Europe will be the last for me the national team. I hope this is not a match with Belgium. I'm very proud and will always carry with me the shirt of Sweden. "
34-year-old striker, who is tipped to secure a new addition to Manchester United's record for goals for the national team of Sweden with its 62 goals scored in 115 matches. At Euro 2016 he has not scored, but if he can do it, will become the first player realized goals from four European championships. So Ibra will be sorely to score in Belgium.
Belgium has three points of second place in Group E, where Italy is the leader with 6 points. Ireland and Sweden have won a point.
The team need at least a draw to qualify for the second round of the championship on the continent. The Belgians, however, have no chance of winning the first place, even in victory.
Competitors led by coach Mark Vilmots started with a disappointing loss with 0: 2 from Italy, then took partial revenge by convincing success with 3: 0 victory over Ireland in their second match.
Striker Romeo Lukaku said: "I think we played well in attack and in defense against Ireland. We did what we wanted - not only won 3 points, but we showed how we know how to play. The Italians are a very strong team with a fantastic coach. They did not get it but us awake and set to play. Well worked the ball in defense were stable, and the attackers used their chances. Now we must continue to progress throughout the tournament. "
Lukaku scored 2 hits in the second half against Ireland and would again be the biggest threat to the opposing defense.
This game should definitely look to all fans of the talent of Ibrahimovic. Rumor has it that perhaps this is the last game of Zlatan T-shirt of the national team. Well, if the Swedes will continue, what to believe with great difficulty, then we will see a part of the Swedish Ibra. So goes the legend, and all sorts of Dziuba and Shirokov did not even think about retirement in the case, which is clearly not theirs. Swedes look extremely convincing. Belgians seem to have woken up after the game with Italy and a strong legs carried forward the Irish. Today they will try to win and get the second place in the group. Wilmots made the right conclusions after the defeat, and now, I think, his critics poutihnut. Although Ibrahimovic alone can make the result and then it is certainly a mentor "Red Devils" nothing will help to keep your place. I suppose the Belgians victory.
