Gotta think Georgia's cinderella run ends here, but stranger things have happened

They did beat Spain once, in a 2016 friendly that was part of Spain's Euro warn-up. But much as I hope that can happen again I don't see it happening.

Still better than anyone could have expected, and the Georgians I know are quite happy with the result so far.

I think Spain advances but Georgia could win. Spain can have finishing issues and their defense is not the strongest. A low-scoring match that goes to a penalty shootout is a real possibility.

These two were actually in the same qualifying group with Spain winning 10:2 on aggregate including a 7:1 hammering in Tbilisi. Though in the same group Scotland took four points from Georgia and we see what happened

 

[PanniniClaus]

ok - try and turn my attention to this after that first game..

2-0 Spain I think.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Anything less than a 3-0 win for Spain would be a major shock. I kinda expect more than that.

Georgia would have never made it to this Rd of 16 if Portugal had acted in sportsmanlike fashion tbh.

Now into the Georgia bandwagon.

Not that I have much fate in them, but it would be a great win for them. Whereas Spain already got their titles 12-15 years ago, and this current Spanish side is nowhere near those levels, so wouldn't mind them going out.

An early dismissal for Spain would make the match more interesting.

 

[JJ68]

Spain have looked the best imo this tournament. They win this game.

Another Cucurella masterclass incoming.

Spain walking the group stage and losing in R16 is vintage, so I hope it happens today

It's Lamine time, he's finished all his high school exams so now he can focus just on the footy haha

 

[ZDH]

Go Georgia!

 

[gary69]

This has been one way street the first 6 mins, but Georgia has survived so far.

 

[PanniniClaus]

I mean, this is what a team with talent is supposed to do. They look great.

 

[cgf]

Wish we didn’t have to worry about Spain until the final. They are too much fun to watch

 

[serp]

Georgia is not going to hold up like this for the whole game. It's been just non-stop powerplay from Spain

 

[PanniniClaus]

Nico Williams.. have watched him for years with Bilbao and it's so good to see him getting this chance.

 

[Carlzner]

Not feeling great about Georgia +1.5 right now

 

[serp]

Lol.

 

[Blender]
