Payet and Giroud scored for France.
Schar for Swiss?
Bale for Wales
Dier for England
Think it was Milky for Poland
Mustafi got one for Germany
Pelle got one of Italies I think.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Giroud and Payet is right. If anyone can remember the Romanian scorer then hats off ( it was a penalty and he was their star in the tournament)

Schar did get the Swiss goal.

I'm surprised you've forgotten the first Italy goal and the second Germany goal as both were very good

Watched the Italy game but missed the German one.
Remember the Italy goal, can't think of who scored it.

was it Giacch'?

i missed the game
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Call yourself a fan?? Yeah it was him from that amazing bonucci pass over the top. He was dishing those out like it was nothing in the tournament. Italy were really good in that game.. I thought you would win the whole thing based on that game.

To test your memories, can you name the scores and goalscorers for the opening 8 euros games? The fixtures were:
1. France v Romania
2. Albania v Switzerland
3. Wales v Slovakia
4. England v Russia
5. Turkey v Croatia
6. Poland v Northern Ireland
7. Germany v Ukraine
8. Belgium v Italy

If anyone could name all the goalscorers then I will declare that they know TOO many football stats

----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: 2-1 Giroud, Payet; Stancu (pen)
2: 0-1 Schar
3: 2-1 Bale, Robson Kanu; ?
4: 1-1 Dier, Berezutsky
5: 0-1 Modric
6: 1-0 Milik
7: 2-0 Mustafi, Schweinsteiger
8: 1-1 ?; ?

My best effort

Everytime I've seen games in the AFCON, they've been terrible. Not sure if I only just catch the bad ones or if it's just a terrible tournament.

If you think these games are terrible then you have no clue about football. Very fascinating to watch imo

The others are better then this. In all international tournaments I've seen, they've provided better games (in either quality or entertainment) then what the AFCON constantly serves up. To make matters worse, it comes around every 2 bloody years.
Hopefully Senegal get knocked out early so we get Mane back ASAP.

hope Senegal win it

when do spurs go to anfield? think its not too far away?

Liverpool - Tottenham is in mid-February I think.

I'm always confident of us playing well against the better teams so I'd expect a strong performance even without Mane.

Liverpool away is probably the only game right now that we wouldn't be favourites to win.

Gabon 1-1 Burkina-Faso.
All 3 group A games have ended that way so far.

Goal of the tournament just scored.
Solo effort from inside his own half.
Guinea Bissau 1-0 Cameroon.

*started from inside his own half.

Will be disappointed if Gabon don't make it out of the group. Would be nice to see them win it for the first time in their own country.

It would also cement Aubameyang's position as one of the best African players ever if his goals take his country to glory. I imagine that he's already up there in terms of goals scored by an African player in a top European league and adding an AFCON to that provides an argument to put him alongside the likes of Eto'o, Drogba and George Weah (and Ali Dia) in terms of the best African strikers ever.

Looking at the stats his goalscoring compared to Drogba for example is quite amazing. Drogba got 104 goals and 63 assists in 254 premier league appearances and so far Aubemayang has 70 goals and 18 assists in 111 bundesliga appearances.

Come on Algeria! Not looking good if they don't win this

Well Mahrez and Slimani are looking remarkably keen to get back to our Premier League campaign.

Algeria have had a real fall from grace after their World Cup exploits. Look likely to be eliminated at the first stage here, and not looking good for Russia 18
