Have a soft spot for Spain as lived there briefly a long time ago ! Wouldn’t mind an upset either , but it is unlikely isn’t it.
The Spanish man on BBC is very nice.
At least it’s not Wayne Rooney for a change.

🇦🇹 for me.

Me too

They’re talking about cats?!

Cat chat !

We can add it to the national list of what’s not gonna happen 😁

Loved the cat chat ❤️ shows how blokes can have a soft side

‘Consistently incorrect’ 🤣

Gol Espana

Grrrr was hoping this was going to be an upset match. Still time I suppose.

I feel that Spain will score in the second half and that will be that!

Yeah agree

I think Spain being only 1-0 up doesn't reflect the run of play. They've totally dominated and I expect them to score at least 1 or 2 more.

Who what where why? The football pundits. Did a cat wander onto the pitch? Has happened before.

I know I know!

Ah ok, thanks.

Spain just look quite relaxed about it all don’t they

I'm just trying to work out how I'm going to get round the 1 am KO on Monday. Bet loads of people are. I'm fortunate that I'm retired.

I missed the car talk might have to insist we watch from the start after match has finished

Cat chat was about 18 minutes in.

Spain are smug bastards. There I said it.

Spain may be happy with 1/0
save their energy for future matches.

Nope, I’m wrong again! Lol

Tou were right about another goal in the second half though
