Switzerland paying tribute to their class of '06 who we were discussing the other day.
Why am I drawing a blank on this?Switzerland actually lost a shoot out to England ffs.

England imoThe scriptwriter failed by setting up the hero's journey perfectly and then harshly subverting it in the end.
Very entertaining game to watch though - the passage of attrition play from Switzerland after the red card was box office David v Goliath. Spain should have been 3-1 if not for comedy finishing in ET. The opposite of clinical. Some of the penalties from both sides were pure comedy as well.
Now I've to pick a new underdog team to casually root for.

Do not support the Czechs for **** sake.The hope of an underdog win lies either with Ukraine or Czechia, it appears.

Nations League 3rd place play-off.
Denmark are the fairytale winners. Were a big underdog pre-tournament and their best player had a heart attack during the opening game.The hope of an underdog win lies either with Ukraine or Czechia, it appears.
