Easy peasy. We got this.

Beat France 2-1. Handball to win naturally.

Beat the English 3-1. Just cuz we're awesome.

Beat Germany 1-0 repeating October.

Meet Northern Ireland in the final. Play out to a draw. 11 penalties scored each. Decide fuck it and reunite the island.

The island of Ireland win Euro 2016

I'm saying nothing bad about Wales, I just want Norn Iron to do their best and maybe even get a Will Grigg goal...

 

[Oriel]

Shit. I have England in my office syndicate (and it's a fair chunk of money) but my heart is with the plucky Icelanders.

Fuck it. Go Vikings!!

Lol, I have Iceland in my pools (Romania was my other draw) so relishing that tie.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Well done Ireland. They deserved that. Blatant penalty in the first half too.

[TheKingOfPain]

Ireland wins the Clash of the Catholics!

Sure, everyone's a Catholic in Italy.

 

[Stereogatari]

It's actually cheating. There should only be Team GB. You can't have 3 teams that are actually one country. That's cheating.

 

[faridmon]

YES IRELAND. FUCKING GET IN!

So happy for my boys in Blues. Coleman and McCarthy must be ecstatic.

 

[KingSnake]

Yeah, British teams stealing our jobs places!

Spoiler

Can you imagine how good a British team with an actual great player like Bale and decent keepers like any of the other would be?

 

[Creamium]

The best thing about this schedule is that both Irelands made it. Dat N. Ireland crowd once more on saturday.

What's the difference?

 

[Addi]

I wouldn't be afraid of Ireland normally, but we have karma waiting for us :S 7 years in the making! Hopefully that karma was used on the 2010 World Cup.

France are the clear favourites though, the players, home turf advantage and 3 more rest days (on top of them already resting players against Switzerland). We are also playing in Lyon, first time in the tournament France gets a decent pitch where we can finally keep the ball rolling and not slip.

Big differences in resting days for the next round, Portugal plays again Saturday, France is getting 3 more days than Ireland, etc...

 

[Eanan]

What will Norn Irons anthem be for that game?

Benefits of winning your group and not being third place

 

[Creamium]

What's the difference?

The N. Ireland crowd seems even crazier to me, loved the Germany match

 

[T-Rex.]

So Ronaldo is the first player to score in 4 different Euros. This is why he's the GOAT. Won't see Messi do that.

 

[Melfice7]

You think he will come back for Euro 2020?

If Ronaldo doesn't get any serious injuries he can play til hes 40 if he wants to, mans a beast

Wales are beatable.

What's the difference?

We've better songs.

Amen brothers.

Maybe in the stadium for one moment in a game, but nowhere near as crazy or memorable as the Republic fans! Utter madness over there with us all

Predicting a Wales, England and Ireland win!

COME ON!!!!

Rooting for both teams, that's for sure

Lmao, legit laughed at this one thank you.

Edit: just saw this interesting quote from Conte, can't disagree.

Conte: "The draw is ridiculously unbalanced, but there are rules and we've got to respect them."

 

[Lucreto]

Happy for Ireland they get a chance to score their revenge against us. ^^
I'm pretty sure this will make for a nice match.

Now if Ireland's supporters could avoid singing all night long at the pub at the corner of my street like NI fans did last night, that would be greatly appreciated... ^^

No can do. Might as well wear green and learn Fields of Athenry then go and join them. It's going to be a long night otherwise.

Fucking hell! I'd savour a Ire-Eng tie if we rob France on Sunday.

If somehow we beat France and with incredible luck defeat England, Ireland won't be open for business for the next week.

 

[Strax]

Can't watch it in Canada.

getting through to the knockout rounds makes it even funnier that Scotland couldn't even qualify.

That unbridled enthusiasm, I love it. I wish more commentators were like this.

Team GB would be great but it won't happen.

When Scotland stop being shite, then they can start regret it.

I cant imagine how they feel right now.

Grats ireland for making it through. RIP Turkey and Albania

I wonder how Iceland will do against France.

They´ll watch them from their tv´s at home

Given the year that's in it sure why not.

 

[Lunar FC]

I bet a team will advance without a win in the group.

Called it.

 

[Bakkus]

Every country scored goal from their team's players.

Besides Sweden.

 

[Oriel]

By rights they should but FIFA give the UK a special dispensation for being codifiers of the game. A bit silly really.

 

[Oriel]

What's the difference?

One displays British flags, the other doesn't.

 

[Madchad]

Wait what. Just noticed Sweden are out.

 

[Violet_0]

ahahha Austria ahahahah
they went out in the best possible way

 

[gutter_trash]

Iceland is immune to penalty kicks

 

[Big_Al]

Not to Northern Ireland LOL

Oooooooooh get this, saucer of milk for one

 

[Kos Luftar]

Now that Albania is out, the honorary Albanians aka Germany will win this without a problem.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

England extra time win is my vote lol. Lose if go to pens

 

[Eyeh4wk]

What?

Didn't Germany and France complain about UK being too OP, back in the day, and demand they should play separately or something?

 

[gutter_trash]

What?

Sweden's lone goal was an Own Goal on the part of Ireland

 

[Lashley]

I honestly think Iceland will be a difficult game Monday

They're not pushovers, and we're not exactly great either
