Italy really dominated Turkey.

Swiss leading Wales 1-0. Swiss counterattack very well. Final 1-1 draw. Swiss had goal disallowed at 85' due to offsides.

Hungary manages 1-1 draw with France. Portugal vs Germany later.

[Rastak]

Yea, Hungary was quite the result. Germany with the push to advance.

[Joemailman]

Didn't think Germany had it in them to score like that against Portugal.

Italy looking very good in the tournament.

[Joemailman]

Germany survives group stage...barely.

Round of 16 now set. Starts Saturday:

Wales vs Denmark
Italy vs Austria
Netherlands vs Czech Republic
Belgium vs Portugal
Croatia vs Spain
France vs Switzerland

Why the hell would they have Belgium, Portugal, Italy, France and Spain all in one bracket? Somebody want to get England to the final?

[Freak Out]

Should be a fun final. I really love Italy and have many friends there but am rooting for England this go around.

[Joemailman]

Viva Italia!
Italy wins first Euro since 1968.

[Freak Out]

Brutal finish for England but happy for the Italians

[Bretsky]

As I look at those pics I wonder what country has the most easy babes ? Who has traveled the world for this to find the worst morals ? Curious. Australia ?

[Freak Out]

They are everywhere man. In my experience Germany and Holland have some real ball busters though. I'm not talking the red light district either.

[Joemailman]

USMNT beats Mexico 1-0 to win Gold Cup. In the last FIFA rankings, Mexico was ranked 11th and USMNT was 20th. But USMNT has now beaten Mexico twice since the last rankings were published. Next rankings to be published August 12.

[Bretsky]

Who cares; for Gosh sakes post pictures :)))

[Joemailman]

Our long national nightmare is over. USMNT qualifies for World Cup in November.:flag:

[Joemailman]

Anybody else watching the World Cup? Damn that was a long 2nd half.
Not sure U.S. Can score if Pulisic can't go, but with a team this young just making it out of group stage is an accomplishment.

[Freak Out]

Bummed they didn't destroy Iran considering all the chances they had in the first half. Iran is a tough team and caused problems for some very good squads.

[Fosco33]

The path is Holland then Argentina-Australia. Ie - Holland and then Argentina.

We’re young and playing house money but it’ll likely end soon for the US. Anything can happen as we’ve seen many matches this year where the underdog won. But now the underdog has to win 4 times in a row.

That said / I’ll be watching w/ bloody Mary’s Sat AM.

[Joemailman]

Bummed they didn't destroy Iran considering all the chances they had in the first half. Iran is a tough team and caused problems for some very good squads.

Weah could have had 3 goals himself in the 1st half. They're fun to watch, especially the midfielders, but I'll be surprised if they beat The Netherlands.

Mexico coach Martino out after Mexico fails to advance.

[Joemailman]

For 2nd straight World Cup Germany fails to advance out of group stage.

[Joemailman]

USMNT learned how little margin for error there is when playing the top teams.
