The match against Ukraine was so much more fun to watch, both sides were going for it and creating chances, whereas this was basically a snorefest

Well this was a really fun experience! 
 

I think my biggest surprise was seeing the anthems being played with the lyrics on the tv, karaoke style.

 

also they play the official music of the playing countries, but they did not played the Dutch one, I guess they don’t have one (although I was really hopping they would play “Wij zijn oranje” by andres hazes)

Denmark lost again, but still can qualify I think. A win over Russia is very possible and with Belgium defeating Finland there should be a 3 teams tie with 3 points

Yeah. A win where we score more than one goal will mean 2nd place (as long as Belgium beat Finland). If Finland lose with 1-0 or by more than a goal I believe a 1-0 victory will do as well.

Apparently there's a chance that the final will be moved to Budapest: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/40b2fd72-cf9e-11eb-9bfa-a3bc386e6928?shareToken=4574018f006a808f737b66d902123805

I hope Boris will not accept 

just because of officials ?

2500 of them? Wtf 

they will not dare to move it ! And what about the fans, who will do quarantine and bought flight tickets and paid Hotels in London.

UEFA works for their VIP's. What, really?

It's not like there isn't plenty to criticize. Moving matches 2½ weeks before they are to take place won't help at all (though we all know UEFA doesn't give a hoot)!

Ugh. I'd like to see the final remain at Wembley, but making an exception for those 2500 (!) officials, politicians and so on....just because. That's batshit crazy, unless they do have to adhere to other strict rules (which I doubt).

I'm really impressed that there are no footage of the field crasher. Shows how quickly the producers can react... Unless somebody's fighting for his life!

Too bad the snipers didn’t shoot him down. Now I hope that he (Greenpeace as well) gets the living shit sued out of him. It would be completely unacceptable if he wouldn’t have to go to jail over this.

Those were 2 different people. The field crasher I mentioned was in Budapest.

Ah yeah, some words about the Greenpeace moron here too and damn, he was lucky  Security snipers had their rifles aimed at him, but only due to his Greenpeace logo they didn't open fire (because it was clearly a protest and not a terrorist action)

 

Which raises the question: isn't that sort of dangerous to say? I mean, now a terrorist could just parachute in with a Greenpeace parachute and he won't be shot down  

Yes, they definitely should have shot him down, but if they were part of the „Bundeswehr“ they probably would have missed anyways ...

Not sure if terrorists would try an attack that way, seems really inefficient, I think there would be easier ways to cause more damage.
