UEFA Euro 2020 Round of 16 ** spoilers ** [26th - 29th June 2021]

[Shamikebab]

I looked away from the screen at the wrong moment

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Emma Hayes again FFS. She's the most emotionless commentator ever. ITV don't offer alternative commentary so I'm out, she's abysmal.

 

[fez]

Haha! Oh dear!

 

[Stumble Bum]

Get rid of this woman commentator!!!!!!

 

[Tombstone]

Good news for me, I've got Croatia in the OCUk sweepstake

 

[Azza]

Who is the woman commentating on this. She makes Robbie Savage sound eloquent at times

I've never heard a commentator that can't pronounce Modric.

She's awful. MODRICK.

The main commentator made a reference to Modric and El Classico and then she said "let's hope this match is a classic" and I almost threw the remote at the TV.

 

[pinkpound]

I nearly choked on my drink then laughing

 

[Maundie]

Surely Dave wouldn’t have let that in, tbh the ball back to him was a strange one as it was over powerful with spin on it but blimey it was a calamity

 

[Tombstone]

Emma Hayes again FFS. She's the most emotionless commentator ever. ITV don't offer alternative commentary so I'm out, she's abysmal.

To be quite honest, I find that to be the problem with all the female commentators I hear, they may have football knowledge but they dont have the emotion, you'll never see a female commentator screaming agueeeeeeeerooo for example, its like they are just too reserved, too self conscious or embarassed to show excitement.

 

[chroniclard]

Is it the Chelsea womens boss(emma hayes) commentating?

 

[Azza]

Croatia looking decent right now.

 

[fez]

I don't understand her! Modick but she has no issue with the other "ich" names in the Croatia squad.

Spain looking shakey AF as well.

 

[Fubsy]

Hahaha, Spain keeping the ball is their worst weakness. Teams know that's what they'll do, so they let them do it. Especially when Spain are behind.

At least when Xavi and Iniesta were in the squad you'd eventually see something amazing that would tear a team in two.

 

[happy_2008]

Can't stand her voice but what a own goal

 

[Ayahuasca]

Slight audio stuttering on ITV anyone?

 

[robfosters]

I remarked a year or so back about a poor woman commentator and was immediately branded sexist for it.

 

[Azza]

Decent finish.

 

[Shamikebab]

"Spain’s Unai Simon has become the fourth goalkeeper in European Championship history to score an own goal, with all four instances occurring at Euro 2020."

That is a crazy statistic?!?

 

[AdyG]

Good finish, decent game sofar.

 

[Tombstone]

"Spain’s Unai Simon has become the fourth goalkeeper in European Championship history to score an own goal, with all four instances occurring at Euro 2020."

That is a crazy statistic?!?

I suppose thats in part due to the increase in keepers being sweeper keepers and the increase in teams playing out from the back in the last few years

 

[turbot1984]

"Spain’s Unai Simon has become the fourth goalkeeper in European Championship history to score an own goal, with all four instances occurring at Euro 2020."

That is a crazy statistic?!?

Whats better, Simons or Dubravkas??
