@MrsGulDukat

That was a shitty tackle.
Bit of a face plant there from James, ouch. Deserved yellow card for Schar

The swiss are looking primed to score now. Wales are defending well.

DuncinToffee · 12/06/2021 14:48

Wales lucky there

Yep. That could have been it.

Quite a few chances but none have really been utilised.

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:09

Get up lad, Moore didnt get you that bad.

DuncinToffee · 12/06/2021 15:09

No
Switzerland lead

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:10

They were pushing hard to score. Only matter of time.

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:12

Come on Wales. Time to turn up the pressure.

DuncinToffee · 12/06/2021 15:12

True, they deserve the lead.
Come on Wales, get one back.

Phew, nearly 2

OP posts:
MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:14

That would have 2 for sure if that swiss player had been closer.

Imasoulman · 12/06/2021 15:19

Is it usual for the tournament to played across Europe rather than in one host country? Or is this because of Covid?

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:20

Not seeing any fire in Wales yet.

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:21

I think its because of Covid.

Normally its just a host country.

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:22

Come on Wales.

Keep up the pressure.

DuncinToffee · 12/06/2021 15:29

Nothing to do with Covid, this tournament was always going to be held In 11 cities in 11 countries.

OP posts:
MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:31

Never knew that.

Obviously never pay that much attention.

DuncinToffee · 12/06/2021 15:32

From wiki
UEFA President Michel Platini said in 2012 that the tournament was to be hosted in several nations as a "romantic" one-off event to celebrate the 60th "birthday" of the European Championship competition.

Personally I think it had more to do with money than romance Grin

Yes! Kieffer Moore

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:35

Nicely done there.

Now Wales just need to keep up that pace.

Albern · 12/06/2021 15:36

Come on Wales!!!

MrsGulDukat · 12/06/2021 15:36

James is looking annoyed.

DuncinToffee · 12/06/2021 15:37

Embolo is the danger man for Switzerland,
