Ukraine v Northern Ireland, Group C Euro 2016. Thursday, June 16 17:00 BST
Confirmed XIs Pyatov Khacheridi Rakitskiy Fedetskiy Shevchuk Sydorchuk Stepanenko Yarmolenko Kovalenko Konoplyanka Zozulya VS Dallas Washington Ward Davis, Norwood, C.Evans J.Evans, McAuley, Cathcart Hughes McGovern Broadcast on ITV in the UK from 4pm BST. Odds: Ukraine (8/13) Draw (11/4) Northern Ireland (11/2) Pre-Match Shants Ruslan 'Ramsay' Rotan, the Ukraine midfielder, said Northern Ireland are the most British team at the tournament in terms of style, one he claimed was based on “great physical preparation, strong flanks, high crosses and lots of scrambling” Michael 'Dondarrion' O'Neill took no prisoners with a BRUTAL retort, "“I looked at the statistics in the Germany game and Ukraine’s possession was not particularly high. They also played a lot of long balls, which is very British. Ukraine are a very physical team. If you look at the amount of yellow and red cards the Ukrainians gained through qualification, they are not playing a Spanish style of football.” Bobbles' Prediction: Do or die for both teams after losing their opening games. Ukraine surprised a few with a decent display against the World Champions. Northern Ireland have to actually play football this time around. With all to gain and nothing to lose, expect a lively affair. Maybe worth a flutter on a red card at 10/3. Predicted result: 0-0 Pre-Match entertainment Followed by England vs Wales at 2pm

the Irish are £#%&!ing ace.
Went to an inter company football tournament in Italy a few years ago as part of the English side, arrived on the Friday night and we all got to the hotel and had a bite to eat and headed for bed, 9am meet for the coach to the Monza training ground for the tournament. The team from Ballymena rocked up at 10pm, ditched bags and went straight out. Apparently, they found the local red light district, spent about €1k and returned back at the hotel at 6am, minus 2 players. They damn near crawled to the coaches in at 9.15am to much tutting, mostly still pissed. The last 2 players arrived at the ground 10 minutes before their first game. Bit of puking by the side of the pitch, then went and mullered Holland 4-0, some of them were in their 40's they squeezed out of the group, then did the same that night before the next day £#%&!ing animals. Absolutely relentless. Drinking beer from the beer tent for the spectators between games . |
