England's likely path from here on out:
2nd: Portugal or Iceland
QF: very likely France
Semis: likely the Germany (assuming they win their group)/Italy winner
Wales' path:
2nd: hopefully Albania or Northern Ireland
QF: Belgium is worst case scenario
Semis: likely Spain or Switzerland
This just underscores what a huge favour Slovakia has done for Wales, just by hanging on against England. |  |

that 3-0 defeat against Sweden is a distant memory as is the 1-0 defeat to Ukraine. Both teams out.
Our line up v N Ireland in March was :-
1, HennesseySubstituted for Ward at 45'minutes
2. Gunter
5. Chester
6. Williams
3. Matthews
4. VaughanSubstituted for Allen at 71'minutes
16. LedleySubstituted for Crofts at 45'minutes
7. J WilliamsSubstituted for Isgrove at 62'minutes
10. LawrenceSubstituted for G Williams at 62'minutes
8. Cotterill
9. VokesSubstituted for Church at 76'minutes
Out of the 17 players we used that night.
4, Matthews, Crofts, Isgrove, Lawrence, didn't make the 23 man squad for the Euros
No Bale, Ramsey, Taylor, B Davies that night and we saw the huge difference Joe Allen made when he replaced Vaughan that night.
I'm quietly confident we should beat N Ireland. |
Won't be easy. Even though Germany should have scored 6, NI haven't conceded more than one goal for about 10000 games. They will be compact and deep. We won't be running through them like Russia. Could be a penalties job, or a set piece decider. |  |

I'm a bit concerned that we'll do an England and hit every piece of the woodwork after amassing 90% possession. The we suffer either a Joe Jordan moment or Hennessey misjudges their Goakeepers lump up the pitch and it goes straight in. |  |

This has got 1-0 (Bale free kick) written all over it. Doubt it will be a classic and they won't be easy to break down. On the plus side, they won't offer that much going forward |  | | |

We should play exactly the same way as we did the Russians. Pinch the ball off them and murder them on the break. | |

I predict a dreadful game, 1-0, with a fluke goal of Ash's shin., not sure in which end though.
But then again I wasn't confident v Russia. |  |

How close was the NI team that will play SaturdAy |
Don’t know what their team was against wales, but checking their team against Germany yesterday, I must admit, I’ve not heard of half of them. Of course, if I was Irish, I might say that of a few of our team. |  |

Their keeper had the game of his life against the Germans too. I think the commentator said he was not offered a new contract by Hamilton Academicals. He won't play that well again. Bale should shoot from all angles.
My optimism meter is heading towards the red zone. It's the hope.... | |

I think with our firepower we will attack them like we did the Russians.
I'm going for a 3-1 win | | | |

As someone said earlier, what we've achieved so far is brilliant (TBH beyond many's expectations) and any further progress after Saturday would be outstanding.
I wish we could have another pop at England and soundly beat them this time, but I guess that would only happen if we both made it to the Final (which I know won't happen for either team) ? | | | |

20+ World and Euro titles on one side of the draw. None on the other.
One of Wales, Belgium or Croatia will be in the final. Amazing stuff. | | | |

I'd rather play them outside of this tournament thanks. I'm hoping Iceland knock them out | |

If the gods are smiling and we make the final, of all the teams in the other half of the draw to play I would be happy if it was the winner of the England v Iceland game. | |
