With covid issues in their own squad, Ukraine has in included goalkeeper Oleksandr Shovkovskiy for their next set of matches.

He retired in 2016 and is 45 years old. He’s also the teams assistant manager.

Well ****...
It probably works out for Scotland, really. Steve Clarke was doing everything in his power to have Tierney and Robertson play in the same side, but this simplifies things and maybe they switch to a back four. Or they stay with five at the back, but field a natural CB and let Robertson bomb forward at wing-back.

Finland hasn’t exactly been getting good results since qualifying for Euro, coincides with Pukki’s poor form too at club level

What more can you say about England? At some point Southgate has to lay down the law .....hard....

What other country has this bullshit with their players being unavailable for ridiculous reasons?

Wales win on the cards for the first time since 84? I was thinking Mark Hughes...I could be wrong.

Those remind of the jeans I used to wear to school in the late 80’s early 90’s. Acid wash or stone wah or whatever they called it.

England
England beat Wales 3-0. Only regulars were Gomez, Trippier and Winks, playing 3-4-3 again. Debut goal for Calvert-Lewin, 1st goals for Coady and Ings. Those 3 and Grealish were the standouts.

Wales had more possession in the 1st half but didn't really create anything. They defended their box terribly, England's goals came from a cross, free-kick and corner.

The less said about that game the better.... take the 3 points and forget it. Worst footy I've seen in awhile.

Benrahma starting today vs Nigeria, looking forward to see if he can solidify as starting spot

Edit : Gladbach legend Bensebaini just scored on a Benrahma corner
