They will and they've got enough firepower to beat us too. It would be just like England to beat Germany then lose to them.
Not a great deal of evidence of Ukraine firepower last night
Slightly unreal mostly relaxing game to watch; good luck to England on Wednesday evening

Yeah, they were poor I thought. It seemed like they were quite scared of us.

So the SF will be "ITS COMING HOME" versus "FAIRY STORY". Something has to give, but what?

We should be able to beat Denmark. But Italy in the final will be a different proposition.

Are you predicting an England, Italy final Mark?

Oh yes for sure but we will have to be careful against Denmark, they are no pushovers.

I agree. Your predictions have been spot on so far.
Can you predict Liverpool to win the Premier League next season.

lol, that I can't. Messi is technically a free agent now and Guardiola was his manager before. If Man City get him, and Harry Kane if the rumours are true, I think we can safely predict next year's champion before the season starts.

I like the surname of the Spanish goalkeeper, but I think he will struggle against the Italians.

Hopefully England will win against Denmark and face Italy in the final. Spain should have won but England have players ready now to win

We should beat them as they have already lost twice. They will probably be more scared of us than we are of them.

Well they can certainly be forgiven for the first defeat at least - and it may suit them to be seen as the underdog.

Great result for England. Got lucky on penalty. Need to play better in final against Italy
