2022/23 UEFA Nations League

[Ray Patterson]

Couldn't see a thread for it, but watching Belgium vs Netherlands on Premier.

Didn't know VAR was used for the Nations League, is just for League A or is it all the games.

[The Master]

VAR in all games.

Belgium have been incredibly poor. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Netherlands add another couple before full time.

[Marten]

Belgium 1-4 Netherlands, brilliant win. [emoji41]

[Theroadlesstravelled]

Belgium still tying to wring out what’s left of the ‘Golden Generation’.

The likes Alderweireld and Hazard were done years ago.

Armenia now a goal up against Rep. Ireland, hope they hold on for the win.

Ireland.

I’m starting to think that their manager isn’t the tactical genius he’s been made out to be.

I worked that out when he contrived to be tactically outfoxed by Jim fucking McInally fully fifteen years ago.

Are England/English teams ever going to stop this “taking the knee” nonsense?

In Budapest I'd like to see them do it for 30 minutes before kick off.

Near the start, I’m pretty sure Rob Green called one of the England players “Trent Alexander-Arsehole”.

I heard that as well.

[Bishop Briggs]

Channel 4's presentation, commentary and punditry has been embarrassingly amateurish.

Trent wasn’t signing the National anthem on the Queen’s birthday.

That's more of a UK-wide fixation tbh, symbolising its vassal state status to America. 

If we weren't obsessed with pointless symbolic gesture politics as a society then it would have been rapped up at end of the Covid resumption matches, but here we are with nothing of consequence being achieved. 

[The Master]

Hungary v England is absolutely dire. Two poor teams.

Actually enjoying watching a team have a bit of a go at England.

[Bishop Briggs]

Penalty to Hungary!

Yaaassss!
