Following on from previous thread.

Italy had lots of theatrical moves on Tuesday night! Just done with a bit more flair than the brits.
( they are Italian after all )
Still, I know nothing about football, so I'll leave it there !! 😀

Italians 🤌🤌
🤣

Singing Nessun Dorma in the process.

Italian cheating is just so much more artistic, cultured and sofisticato.

@VerticalHorizon

Glad you smiled! Taken in good spirits!

Of course, I found your comment very funny and very accurate!

The Italians want to be careful adopting a position on the moral high ground after that ludicrous incident in the game where there was a player rolling about looking to all intents and purposes that he required the last rites and then hopping up and running around like a spring chicken celebrating when Italy scored a matter of seconds later, a resurrection Jesus himself would have been proud of. That goal could/should have been disallowed on the grounds of impeding play, remember the adage about casting stones Italy!

I must admit, Tuesday night we were in stitches at that Italian player who got up once they had scored! It was funny.
Lineker and co showed it again and they were also cracking up too.

Immobile... what an apt name

Uefa has charged England after a laser pointer was directed at Denmark keeper Kasper Schmeichel during Wednesday's Euro 2020 semi-final at Wembley.

England are also charged with causing a "disturbance" during Denmark's national anthem and setting off fireworks.

I feel bad for being a Brit with so much bad behavior.
Search the fans on Sunday.
It's sad it's detracted from the football.

Glad they are investigating, the laser, and the booing. Disgraceful, embarrassing.

non-football fans don't get that we hate these bad apples too & probably even more so.
They give the rest of us a bad name. It's despicable

Yep :(

They do get it, it's just a good excuse to bash all football fans. They are more anti- football than non-football, as the latter are just not bothered at all.

I have just been reading the 'wish England hadn't won' thread, have decided to just roll my eyes at it

I've been on there! I can see all points of view, bit it's sad there is so much controversy.

Are you on the 'i hate sweet caroline' one as well?

@DuncinToffee

Are you on the 'i hate sweet caroline' one as well?

Yes!! Lol I don't like that song, the only Caroline I've ever known was far from sweet.

I saw that but decided not to bother.

and I is not bovvered about Sweet Caroline.

However, I love Ricky Martin's La Copa del Vida & Shakira's Waka Waka.
Great World Cup songs, great memories.
we listen & dance to them a lot his CD might be running on loop in my car!

World in motion is my favorite one.
( I bet it offends someone though, somewhere)

Waka Waka is my fave Just Dance song.

Yep this is my favourite had it on repeat today

How about 'We are the champions' for Sunday

@DuncinToffee

How about 'We are the champions' for Sunday

could do! but that's Olympics so don't associate it with footie at all.

Could go with Another one bites the dust🤣

Or Swing low Sweet Chariot.

I know it's rugby but I just love that gospel song. The Ladysmith Black Mambazo version is fab

Olympics? I associate it with football.

I don't really like the sweet chariot song.
