No, the sooner that orange silliness is over the better.

 

I had no idea we had a player called Timber.

Is it because all the games are in Amsterdam ? 😆

No, I really can't stand the orange merchandise and commercials, and the way grown men dress up in orange costumes. Let's agree there's only one acceptable vegetable in football!

Thought for a moment he was getting confused with a WWII general he would have been about 120. 

Zhirkov does look older too.

Most guys are past their prime at 120.

This game is really good. Holland are so attack minded and look like the team that will score first, but because they are so open, it's giving Ukraine a chance.

I'm surprised that another top club hasn't gone back for Depay, he is clearly too good for the level he is playing at.

Lots of counters,  seems like Ukraine players get about a 50 yard run just carrying the ball all alone in the middle of the pitch every 5 minutes or so.

 

Netherlands look fun.

Netherlands have been the better team but surprised ITV haven’t talked more about the danger Ukraine have shown whenever they’ve gone forward. Played some lovely stuff.

I can’t understand how you leave Chilwell and play Trippier on the left. And Sterling, yes he scored by my god there are better options at the moment. Mount was for me the stand out player, he was the most quality player on the pitch. For the sake of England, I hope that Southgate was saving the best players for the relevant games of the tournament. Although I’m only interested in watching the Chelsea players (and hoping that they don’t get injured) tbh.

It was good we won the first game but surprised at the amount of plaudits the performance got against a team that isn’t as good as 2018 and had no centre forward. We had a 10-15 minute spell in the first half and created two chances in the second. 
I didn’t think the team was balanced, with the full backs offering nothing going forward. Kane didn’t look fit, Foden was anonymous after a promising start and Sterling wasn’t that great either, getting a bit lucky with the goal. Even mason had periods out of the game.

still better to have such issues with three points in the bank. Just don’t think anyone should be getting carried away.

Zinchenko is sh*t. 

How fitting that Ukraine's number 7 has scored, with Sheva as their manager.

Excellent, 2-2 

Enjoyed itvs commentary but they’ve seemed oblivious to Ukraine’s threat…now 3-2 Netherlands 😀

BREAKING: Spurs annonce Frank De Boer as their new manager 💥

Grmmmm 

aww sh*t

First Euro game I've managed to watch albeit only the 2nd half, lots of fun so far... And it's 3-2 for the grown up men in orange. Sorry Val 

Keeper should have saved that.

I watched the first and Ukraine looked toothless in front of goal, come back 40 mins later and 2-2. 

I don't think Gary Neville likes this Dutch team. A lot of digs here and there.

Now Keane is at it.

Why are they so negative? It was an entertaining game.

The Dutch commentator thinks it's much, much better to win after squandering a 2-0 lead cheaply, than just win 2-0. It's going to be a long tournament

Wins a win Val! That said Group C has a tough draw. Finish first and you have to play whoever finishes third from Germany, France and Portugal. 

Finish second and you likely play the Italians and the greatest regista since Jon Obi Mikel
