The first full day of the Euros has come to a close and we have seen quite intense games to be honest. I'm writing this on a Sunday morning whilst trying to get to grip with things. Not only have I seen 3 euros matches, I've somehow convinced myself to watch every match of the copa america too. Needless to say, I'm quite exhausted and emotionally drained as well.
My Euros is emotionally because of the nations I've a bond with or individual players I just find awesome or have a special place in my heart for some reason. That could be a little as having an awesome beard (Joe Ledley).

Let me say this first, if you want a quality indepth objective analysis of the games. You are at the wrong place mates. I'm all about everything else, I want CULT. This is a half-decent footballblog combined with the lovely content of Who Ate All The Pies. So now you know.

Albania - Switzerland
Well, well, well. Was it Albania - Switzerland or was it Xhaka vs. Xhaka. My word, allright fair enough, it's great having brothers play against each other, but do we have to make a scene out of it fgs? I mean it's a bloody euros you know. Oh and the one thing that quite possibly irritated me the most, was the half and half shirt by the mother. Don't do half and half. Or Full kit. You are dead to me.

Don't do half and half. Or Full kit. You are dead to me. 

The game was quite decent, both teams had clearcut chances to put the game to bed, but it was an error by Albaniane keeper in the first 10 minutes of the game that saw Switzerland win. Another blunder by a keeper, after Romanian shenanigans Friday. I was pretty frustrated because I had a bet on 1-1 and there was a chance at the end of the game for Albania. 1 on 1, poor finishing, not at all a finish really.

Wales - Slovakia
I only cared about the result with the previous match, but this was completely different mate. I was emotionally invested with the Welsh team. Mind you, Gareth Bales is my less favourite player of that team, but he's in the squad and he is mostly genius to be fair.
That moment the Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau was sung by all the welsh fans, goosebumps, goosebumps. It was very intense.
Gareth Bale produced a no more than decent freekick, but scored the 1-0 and I was jumping around the living room as a sort of nutter. I pulled a muscle in my shoulder, so that worked out great to be honest. Everyone was worrying about the pace the game was played, all I could see was the Welsh Xavi; Joe Allen. One pass was so perfect, I could go have a wank, it was utter perfection.
But the subs did everything for me that game: Joe Ledley came on A.K.A. The BEARD. What. A. Lad. He had broken his leg 35 days ago and now he was playing in the euros, mad respect. Also the Welsh player with the most exciting name came in and produced the winner; Hal Robson Kanu. Let that sink in for a bit. HAL ROBSON KANU. It's like Kanu and Sir Bobby Robson had a love child and he BANGED slovakia. SCENES.

England - Russia
Well this game has left me in tears. It wasn't a good game, England were good though. But some things I don't understand. Why let Kane take corners, he's bread and butter is to score goals. If you are not near the box, it won' happen mate.
Sterling was a threat but no more than that, he delivered nothing. He just ran a few miles. Great tekkers from Dier though, but keeper wasn't looking good either.
The most positive thing about this game was the anthem being sung several times, I hope England will pull through tough.
