Default Euro 2016: Group E Discussion Thread [Italy, Belgium & Ireland qualify!]


Teams:
Belgium
Italy
Republic of Ireland
Sweden

Star Players:
Romelu Lukaku & Eden Hazard (Belgium)
Giorgio Chiellini & Thiago Motta (Italy)
Shane Long & Seamus Coleman (Ireland)
Zlatan Ibrahimovic & Sebastian Larsson (Sweden)

Group Winner Odds:
Belgium (5/4)
Italy (15/8)
Sweden (6/1)
Ireland (12/1)


Psychic Pshaun's Reading:
I get a vision of a cloudy night over the Stade de France, and the luck of the Irish could well dump the Swedes out of the competition before it's even begun. Belgium and Italy are two stars that refuse to be outshone, but it is Italy who leave a bad taste in the tea leaves. Belgium and Ireland shall qualify, but with many battle scars.

Might be a tricky group, but i expect Belgium and Italy to finish 1st and 2nd. Sweden will probably finish 3rd and Ireland gets the fourth place and a confirmed hometicket.

Not an epic football at the moment, as expected. This really smells like a draw.

That was close. Good shot that just bounced of the crossbar. (Ireland attempt)

1-0 to Ireland !!! What a goal from... Hoolaman? or Moolahan?

Anyway, a great strike from a volley.

Wouldnt it be funny if, out of the home nations, only England and Northern Ireland failed to win their opening games?

That goal certainly woke Sweden up. Ireland need to be careful, Sweden is known for their ability to tie the game suddenly.

Sweden has equalized the game a while ago. 7 minutes or so to go.

Some great goals so far, the Irish, Modric's and Payet's are the top 3 though.

Just wish there were a few more... here's hoping Kevin can do something special and break the Italians down prematurely.

Italy makes it 2-0 in the 92th minute.

Good victory for Italy. That probably was the decider on who wins the group also, so congrats Italy.

Probably the most entertaining game yet

So much attacking talent in that Belgium team but they all look clueless playing together

Eder scores for Italy at 87-88 minute and the game ends as a 1-0 victory for Italy. Italy has thus basically confirmed their advancement to the last 16 and are the second team after France to do so. Sweden is in a must win situation against Belgium, if they want to go through.
