EUROS 2024 – 18/06/2024 (PHOTO – PORTUGAL’S CONCEICAO’S CELEBRATES)
EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE CRISTIANO RONALDO WHO WON THE DAY IN THE PORTUGAL VS CZECH REPUBLIC MATCH LAST NIGHT, BEING HIS SIXTH HISTORIC APPEARANCE AT THE EUROS N’ALL. BUT FOLLOWING SEVERAL GREAT ATTEMPTS (AND SOME EXTREMELY FANCY FOOTWORK), HE SOMEHOW COULDN’T REACH THE BACK OF THE NET. iT WAS CZECHIA’S LUKAS PROVOD WHO SCORED THE FIRST GOAL OF THE MATCH AT 62 MINS., FOLLOWED BY AN UNFORTUNATE OWN GOAL FOR CZECH’S ROBIN HRANAC AT 69 MINS., AND THEN WITH A BOLT FROM THE BLUE, YOUNG FRANCISCO CONCEICAO’S (21 YRS) SCORED A MAGNIFICENT LATE GOAL AT 90 +2 MINS., CULMINATING IN A 2 – 1 WIN TO PORTUGAL IN A THRILLING MATCH! PORTUGAL WILL NOW PLAY TURKEY ON SATURDAY 22 JUNE AT 17.00, AND THE CZECH REPUBLIC WILL PLAY GEORGIA ON THE SAME DAY AT 14.00. EUROS 2...
EUROS 2024 – 16/06/2024 (PHOTO – JUDE BELLINGHAM HEADS THE BALL INTO THE BACK OF THE NET)
THE SERBIA VS ENGLAND MATCH YESTERDAY, WAS BOTH DYNAMIC AND NERVE-WRACKING IN EQUAL MEASURES! IT WAS ALWAYS GOING TO BE A TOUGH GIG, WITH THE SERBIAN TEAM AT THE TOP OF THEIR GAME. HOWEVER, JUDE BELLINGHAM SCORED THE MOST FANTASTIC HEADER AT JUST 13 MINS. INTO THE MATCH, AFTER AN ASSIST FROM SAKA, WHO LOOKED LIKE HE WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDING TO FIND HARRY KANE, WHO WAS JUST IN THE WRONG POSITION AT THAT MOMENT, SO JUDE TOOK THE OPPORTUNITY AND SPRUNG FORWARD, MAKING SURE THAT BALL WAS GOING NOWHERE BUT IN THE BACK OF THE NET! JUST LISTEN TO THE CHEERS FROM THE ENGLAND FANS AFTERWARDS! WITH TIPPETY-TOP TEAMS LIKE THIS, SOMETIMES YOU MAY NOT EXPECT TOO MANY FURTHER SHOTS, LET ALONE, ON-TARGET, AND YOU’D BE RIGHT, BECAUSE EVERYONE KNEW WHO TO MARK, AND ALL WERE BRILLIANT IN DEFENSE. BUT...

IT WAS ACTION FROM THE OFF WITH ALBANIA’S NEDIM BAJRAMI SCORING AT 23 SECONDS INTO THE MATCH (WHICH IS THE FASTEST GOAL IN EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY), MUCH TO THE JUBILATION OF THEIR FANS, (CUE A CHEEKY BAJRAMI CROWDSURF), WHICH MUST HAVE PUT THE ITALIAN SQUAD’S TAILS UP (THEY DID LOOK A BIT SHOCKED), BECAUSE ALESSANDRO BASTONI SCORED A STUNNER SHORTLY AFTERWARDS AT 11 MINS., AND THEN CAME ANOTHER SCREAMER FROM NICOLO BARELLA AT 16 MINS! AND ALTHOUGH NO-ONE REACHED THE BACK OF THE NET AFTER THAT, THERE WERE A FURTHER 17 SHOTS FOR ITALY WITH 5 SHOTS ON TARGET, AND ANOTHER 8 SHOTS FOR ALBANIA, WITH ONE SHOT ON TARGET! SO LOT’S OF DRAMA TO ENJOY! THE MATCH CULMINATED IN A 2 ̵...
