Credit to Hodgson as well, having the balls to make those 2 changes at half time, managers in the past would just have stuck with it till the 70th minute

This, subs changed the game. Wales were sitting so deep all game, first half we was so so slow.

Northern Ireland XI: McGovern, Hughes, Cathcart, McAuley, J. Evans, Ward, C. Evans, Davis, Norwood, Dallas, Washington.

Kyle Lafferty is on the bench which is surprising, he mustn't be fully fit.

Must win game. 'mon the #GAWA.

And lets not forget about how they're the better team apparently.

Scoreless at half time against Ukraine. It's been a much better performance than it was against Poland on Sunday.

Got to have a rant here. Is there anything worse than the people who never really watch football suddenly talking like they know everything as soon as a international tournament starts, was in the pub earlier and my brother was talking utter bollocks most of the night about the England game (which he didn't watch)

Can't stand people like that. So many of my friends that play football with me have no fucking idea what is going on and are just talking shit all the time. Fucking dumb dumbs.

Yes:

People who sing along to the national anthem in the pub.

Atleast thats over after about 30 seconds, you have to put up with people pretending they know what they're talking about for 105 odd minutes

My experience on this is probably skewed.

I watched the Germany game in a German enclave in Scotland (who knew that existed) with a bunch of German somethings (I don't even know what the right word is, we'd call them toffs, rich upper class red-trouser brigade type people) who aggressively shouted at the whole pub to 'Sing, you arseholes' and then when the screen showed Boateng not singing shouted 'Sing, you nigger' and continued to make similarly racist and nationalistic remarks throughout the game. I doubt they would have done it in Germany, they just assumed that no one could understand what they were saying apart from their own group.

Man if only Poland had scored, I'd have probably been the only English person dumb enough to celebrate a teams goal and get myself beaten up in a game I didn't care about.

Sweden appear to actually be having a go in this game, unlike their opening match.

Just looking at the stats, sounds like it's been another poor game. Can't see Czech Republic/Croatia being any better so now because I won't be watching it, it'll probably end a 2-2 end-to-end game or something stupid like that.

Will watch Spain vs. Turkey at 8pm.
