ROMANIA vs UKRAINE EURO 2024 Watchalong Mark GOLDBRIDGE LIVE

three yeah three two one hello everybody we’re back right who was it we’ve had an attack on the studio the internet went down and Something’s Happened um my brain’s tiny I blame I blame some hackers at FD I reckon seen me and they they’re raging I’ve been trying to do a a watch along with Mark and on this channel for ages I’ve done one with Mark fine and I’m doing it with somebody else maybe bit of a jealousy attack I think it could be you know I reckon it could be um I I really wouldn’t put it past you mark yeah exactly well we were having a lovely chat about beers and ciders uh we’re having a lovely chat about Romania versus Ukraine it’s currently Romania won Ukraine nil first half I mean it was a good first half really a good first half a great goal scored um to put Romania uh one nil up in the end I think Ukraine have had the better chances um or definitely been in the better positions the final ball has been nowhere near good enough um and when they have had chances to take the shot they’ve really not um done well with them uh I just feel like yeah they’ve not R tested the Romania goalkeeper really like all the shots feel like they’ve been off Target so um yeah I think with the effort that with the effort that went in they deserve to won to up in Romania yeah solid Blake says we’re back Rebecca Challenger yes we are back um they’re back we are back the boys are back in town the goats are back says dan Dickinson uh we’re going to be streaming every single match whether it’s two streams per half four streams per quarter we will be streaming for the Euros for the entire tournament uh me and Zach will be back for Belgium at 5:00 p.m. and then Mark will be with you this evening back in his humble abode in the studio there um I blame will not angry just disappointed says braded Monster uh monster yeah heard that a lot yeah from Girlfriends from parents uh from you know from everything uh it’s just a real I’m just a big huge disappointment Dougie says big up will what happened says Kevin I’m thinking Mark’s got a bit jealous he s he saw the chemistry between me and Zach first half really fusing together just before the whistle and he’s thought [ __ ] this let’s get them off get I’m gone um so Romania didn’t really have the ball but they won the up absolute they they forced the error really didn’t they from pressing mistake from the goalkeeper great shot though still but then ever since the since they scored it feels like it’s gone the other way now where they’ve got the ball uh and they have been quite useful a few chances created as the cross comes in go on do it a he’s lined up as if oh great and again come on boy get around it Jack says the maggots are in the wires yes now I think clean that Guinness tap as Ukraine break now on the Counterattack play him play him 2v2 oh he’s gone in oh he’s going the other way too much too much oh my word how to ruin a Counterattack 101 there by Ukraine can’t quite tell who it was I think it was the attacking midfielder um Corner though corner to Ukraine Brandon spark says this isn’t Mark what I say to you Brandon is how can you be so sure AI is a beautiful tool and the way Mark uh likes to operate he could be sat here and it could be could I be Mark could you be Mark maybe we’re all Mark a special way in a way aren’t we Mark solid blade says smash a like yeah thank you get stream back and running really help us to drop a like also if you are new here drop a subscription obviously it is Mark 80% of the time but obviously we’ve got goldbridge sa’s football podcast which is out now give that a listen as mud baks into the box I’m here with lab Zach a huge Chelsea fan works on football daily got a fantastic YouTube channel in himself big presenter big lad big personality big times good times exactly big big big all the time um yes no it’s been all right it’s been bigad actually sounds defry actually so I’d like to say that back say whatever you like mate big big personality thank you thank you very much thank you very much I’m a big lad aren’t we again aren’t we all our own special way um yeah no I’m kind of hoping this second half is a little bit better because the first one was really bit lackluster and end up waiting for that one goal uh but it’s been already the second half end to end seeing a lot more end to end action here um last ditch tackle Chile driver from Romania oh it’s happened again is that Marin yeah I think so it’s all happening here it’s 2-0 what a strike Romania don’t just score goals they score great goals what a strike two from outside the area Peter jury watch out yeah exactly they don’t just score goals they score great goals all the time not wrong though not wrong really good finish that tackled on the edge of the box there from the counter attack by Romania um Ukraine tackled them and he’s just followed in and whack bottom left hand corner can the keeper do better I mean Len’s not I mean for Real Madrid’s number two I would expect better yeah well argu number three they brought keer in on loan actually and then he and then he did uh produce perform better so he did become the number two but here we go Romania on the attack Ukraine do stop it with a tackle but no one gets out to hit out to it oh we should oh yeah feels like it goes through him a little bit it’s a great finish like it’s he’s hit it 100 kilm an hour it’s goes under the keeper that’s that’s honking he has a couple of defenders in front of him like he might have seen it last minute but still oh I’d like to take back my peter jeury comments uh they just scor goals now great girls like still it’s some some shot a lot of power behind it it goes at some speed and I mean Romanian fans were going crazy by the looks of it as well in the Sands um but yeah two Romania it was all happening but the big man nevar has become a gold member nevar thank you uh your comments never fail to um surprise us I was going to say amuse us I’ll just stick with surprising this um Mark’s back for the 8:00 P.M game tonight me and Zach will be joining you for the 5:00 p.m. uh we might get hernandz again in between oh wow that’s news to me I might got to clear with the boss man because I’m definitely not paying for it um but yeah no what do we make of the first half get your score predictions now Romania 2 Ukraine nil how do we see this one finishing I’ll give you a revise yeah well I said 2-1 originally to Ukraine um Ro didn’t expect Romania’s finishes to happen to be quite honest they’ve been very very good I think I’ve kind of got to go to I just don’t feel like I’m going to see Ukraine score at the moment they they aren’t having that final ball that final pass quite work out for them um so I will say 31 to Romania complete change up I’ve been convinced who’s who’s the um who’s the lad from Jon we were speaking about earlier uh de de de brnik something like that de BR we need to see a bit more from him then he looked Lively for a little bit had the shot over the bar um Nev nevar two I think those two you Australian dollars says remember n nandz is garbage now we had me Mark and N had one at the weekend and it was top tier it was top tier I’ve never had a bad nandez no yeah yeah other other food places it’s the James Milner of um mainstream food but then when you get a James Miller Champions League performance yeah wow I think that we had Sunset burgers at the weekend Sunset Burger yeah you not have them I have but I just wouldn’t wouldn’t be going for it I’m doing a we’re doing butterfly here yeah okay we’re doing butterfly oh yeah absolutely exceptional some some sweet potato wedges on the side it was lovely what’s happened to oh my God it could be another one oh it’s a good block I feel like Lin’s diving just to make it the ball just keeps dropping to Romania edge of the box and they are more than happy to oh that’s a good save good save but they’re more than happy to have a go more than happy to have a go near post is where you’ve uh can get beaten very easily as I found out this year and many a challenge yeah oh no that I thought that was the one that was going in no this one here that’s the uh the second attempt good save to it’s all been Roman ever since they got that goal it’s literally completely turned the game on its head uh luino says I’ve never had her nandos in 23 years Romania oh my outside surely about four foot offside is your man offside nice thank you that’s and that jwy would be proud of that EXA yes he actually would be get that across the might be tough I can’t tell if they had someone on the touch line uh on the goal line sorry so if he is and I don’t think he is offside we will find out but three oh there’s a man crying there bit too much for me do you want me your man earlier said uh well not your man but a man said uh 7 nil 71 didn’t he could be on could be on I think my said given the channel as well so you don’t speak for that that you football daily exactly yeah you can take that one um easy offside no he’s on I think foot the foot outstretched foot I think he playing him on yeah he look miles off from the one angle he’s on oh oh he’s on I think he’s on I think the outstretch foot of the Ukraine player um is playing him on side 3-0 and you know what in terms of taking your chances they deserve it what we saying in the chat you you’re watching it live with us do you think he was offside feels a bit too many replays for me not surely we’ve just got the um the U System comes automated off sides yeah automated off sides yeah very actually I think this is standing yeah well done fair play fair play uh tears in the stands when was the last time you cried over football Z actually quite often to be fair yeah um I was sat next to you for the Carib Cup Final you didn’t cry then I didn’t cry I wanted to go home quite quickly freezing yeah yeah I uh I last CED I had you last CED at football um England France i’ I’ve cried the last three competition the road cried at the Euro loss cried at the 2018 World Cup cried at Qatar World Cup I might cried at Croatia one yeah might depending what is weird though is every time going into those tournaments I’ve been very like oh England in like we’re GNA do this we’re gonna do this I’ve not really been I’m not feeling it this year no I know what you mean we were saying it almost feels like the first proper tournament we’ve had in a while which sometimes you have to get built up into a little bit yeah maybe yeah maybe come say The Knockout stage as I start feeling it a bit more like yesterday when I watched it um obviously 8:00 p.m. kickoff on a Sunday was wasn’t really too rowdy wasn’t like sitting there singing chants and stuff um so yeah I didn’t end up I didn’t feel it just yet maybe by Thursday things will change you know what as well we’ve not had a good song we’ve not had a good like England song is he the one that’s doing the rounds at the moment oh yeah have exactly but you you support Algeria as well when they cried did I cry afcon no I don’t think I did actually I think I was just very immensely proud of the boys um that was a while ago as well now uh um but yeah no probably and then the other times I cried I cried at the Champions League final for Chelsea there in PTO oh you went to that yeah yeah incredible experience um I think football meant a lot more then especially if you’re Chelsea got to go to that just because of CO as well and like having to was Inc was crazy oh that was not a nice little injury there um yeah no was crazy uh was very very fortunate like went to the Afterparty as well with the players it was very very nice some weird yeah weird uh again back at that time just weird time in general but was uh yeah very nice in that front Jim we see much more of um we see well can’t get much not worse but obviously had injuries but Mason Mount want to see more oh definitely yeah yeah I was genely really sad when M when Mason Mount left um I think he is a player that is underrated um and his inj like it’s weird because obviously he went through his time at Chelsea never getting injured yeah then the final season he started to pick he picked up like a couple um and now last season for Man United was awful like f did he did he play more than 12 games um Ukraine here playing a little bit of football and nothing great tackle um Bost him absolutely Bost him um and so yeah no next year I think United have a really good play in their hands like they’ve got someone that can play several positions um someone who I think does the the simple stuff really well uh what what level of player he can now go on to he’s like 20 is he 25 now um so you’re starting to see kind of what he is but it’s still definitely not a bad player like when he went double he went double goals and assists when he was at Chelsea um he he’s a really solid player um I think overall overall it was a good move um for everyone in the end um and I think you will whether we see him whether we see him in the England squad again I think be interesting yeah because we’ve got some crazy players coming in and also like depends who the new manager is who his favorites are and stuff um but overall yeah I I think um he’s a really could play yeah I was thinking that even with like someone like Harry MaGuire like now he’s missed out on this tournament yeah and and if Mark Gay can have a good performance next to John Stones really I thought he was really good yesterday as well so good I think and if he can be a bit more athletic and mobile uh first substitutions for Mania com and a man coming off um and [ __ ] coming on here he comes um I think Ma Matthew mcfam was telling us about his time at Rangers not the not the most appreciated there yeah I think it’s I always think it must be really tough to be like especially for him essentially their greatest player of all time is his dad Romania but I always think like about Zan’s got like four sons that were in football goalie Wonder goalie I think for the I think that’s so smart in Spain somewhere uh I don’t know if he’s in the second division he went on loan so smart you know but I ain’t going to be able to replicate what my dad’s done I’ll go in that I’ll go that um but I always think like it must be so difficult and so when you see like tram’s obviously Marcus teram who the son of lilan teram um playing into well must be must be crazy triple substitution for Ukraine and Y malenko’s coming onto the field he must be in we’re talking like he’s demanding a bit more he’s saying needs it yeah definitely this he needs to smash into someone they’re almost feeling a little bit sorry for themselves I think um right now the way they’re playing like you they possession wise and throughout the game have been the better team they’ve conceded two long shots yeah um that were some great finishes as well um how how day 88 uh says if Ted B Todd Todd Bley Ted found a loophole of having two Saturdays a week he would have uh then is that is that a bad comment where that one there understand it known as I don’t really know what it means but I think he basically thinks they’ve not done uh not done a good job right yeah he would have tried it um yeah I mean I I obviously Chelsea go from winning the Champions League to um not being in the Champions League is a it’s a downside um he definitely trying some interesting approaches like I think the the loopholes that people say are also loophole the contract one was actually quite interesting the loophole is obviously about like the selling um uh the hotels to our like the second companies like that that’s all stuff that’s been in football for years like ason Villa sold their Stadium to themselves we did it to God knows what the compan exactly but it’s it’s also like how the media represents it and it’s like Suddenly It’s this massive thing that you’ve never heard of before and like it’s ruining football and stuff like that um but yeah no I think I basically think uh we’re getting to a couple like this season I think you can now really start to judge on how things have gone because maybe Chelsea have this next season and things go really well and they finish top four and and playing good football and what was did the thing come out with him with B about him um Ukraine go close Areno straight away making imp with um is he like not going to be on the board or making the decisions I think long term he was always saying like people he’s almost used a little bit like like he actually still doesn’t do that much now no like it’s almost like because he is the big name in the face he gets L to do a few interviews like he gets a lot of the attention he doesn’t really do as much now there are a lot the other boys that do a lot more um not he’s got a million different businesses so like with the other boys are like fully focused on Chelsea yeah um and so so yeah I mean they he deals with it at a level that I would never understand and that a lot of us would never ever understand unless we own the football club um I I think when they came in I said at the time like this isn’t a thing that we can judge them on a season it’s thing that we judge over three or four maybe five um and then we can look back and go from there but also football’s so fickle like Chelsea if Chelsea have a good season next year and finish in the top four everyone suddenly goes oh I think the plan working the plan’s working then isn’t it um if they don’t then everyone goes well still a mess and so uh I just think all it as as actually shown by poino situation one month of good football changed everyone’s opinion and like that’s that’s just I think football and a nutshell it’s true a it because you always think of the way bad the bad way football works of like three or four defeats like yeah the way it ended Me and Mar remember being on the podcast were like am I sick yeah probably want to be a little bit higher but European football yeah again obiously like look back at it in like five years time and you don’t remember like the the draw to Sheffield United and that oneoff you go you look at the table position how many goals scor go the man city game yeah the man city game yeah and that’s and that’s mainly it um so yeah yeah it’s uh it’s it’s a beautiful sport football but because there’s so much of it you forget everything that happens yeah exactly um lunin should have said the second goal we all agreed to that yeah he’s not having not great game after a fantastic campign for M yeah cuz he got told obviously he did so well in the Champions League for for them became the second guy when T Kar was injured and then got told yeah you’re not going to play in the final sorry mate yeah did all the work and yet did not get the reward of the final qu though I mean yeah it’s tough I think as a goalkeeper and like you also understand that like you are the number two like you’re not the level of TBO CTO oh here we go is the offside it’s it’s the outstretched foot yeah and that’s put I mean I think we’re getting this next year aren’t we for the Premier League I think this will help I think will help with VAR a lot yeah I I think VAR should exist I think it’s used badly in the Premier League um and I think offsides is always this one of one of the decisions that become so like overs spoken about I think once you introduce that and you say is because almost that is like a hard concrete evidence of like a he that’s why I think they should get rid of v and just just have offside and goal line and keep everything else objective I I like VAR but to be fair I think it is who operates it because exactly but then I don’t see where that’s going to improve I could generally see a thing where you know the porous Challenge on F on Friday the red card for Scotland yeah all agreed common assault doesn’t get picked up because of the the the what’s it the ball bouncing around I could generally see V going well uh maybe could just give him a strong yell and it’s like hang on a minute what’s happening his legs nearly come off his yeah yeah yeah I just think whatever happened like if they got rid of V we all then start going something happened in football game go right oh my God I thought I went in I thought I went in then I was going to what You’ done um howy back again with um 59 Norwegian people pounds I don’t know what that Crona is it I have a little look anyway thank you very much howy 88 thanks for answering a couple of my questions the last one was just a clumsy one was what I meant with the loopholes got you big yeah I think what I did there howy 88 was overreact because it’s first time on not with Mark and I didn’t want to mess it up and he’ be like you’ve just said the worst thing in human history the Channel’s gone no wonder why the internet’s down because you’re saying those horrendous things after me uh enjoy the match thank you very much for getting to touch like we said before Please Subscribe drop us a like drop us a comment um me and Zach here to answer them have a good chat about the football like we said Romania versus Ukraine you might not know everything it’s been really good actually really enjoyable um I want a bit more from Ukraine one goal if we can get a goal from Ukraine I think it changes I think we might see a lot Romania have a little bit of a tough rest of the second half why really dis fin every time it’s been so bad it’s disappointing in that Catia game when they were 3-0 down but then we felt Roger could have maybe had a red card oh that’s a there madri territory he take he doesn’t well he can take set pieces he doesn’t in the Chelsea Squad because there are people essentially ranked higher yeah he can like happily they’ve got many eclips of him scoring and training and stuff from them um I’m trying to think who else I got zenchenko would he take a free kick I think Madrick I think he’s lining up for it and jenko’s over it as well I think as well it’s a right footer yeah it’s a right footer this over the wall top leftand Corner nice range this as well actually what 27 28 foot away what position do you play when you play football uh I’m a Defender I’m very much def I can’t like I can’t play with my I canot not play with my ball with my back to the with my back to the goal I can’t everything need be it needs to be in front of me um and so yeah def uh very much a center back uh can do a DM job if needed like I remember I don’t mind like being follow oh is zenko here we go try Cur it the other way from no it’s not oh deflection Goodall there we were I was actually speaking about you behind your back the other day in a positive way um because we were Zach used to be part of football day I used to do one of the best series I’ve ever watched Squad goals mate my favorite you know what as well you know when you see like I see gir and turf now we were there we had it before we had it before so explain what it was so basically uh Squad gos was a Pro Club series on the very popular game uh eafc now um and uh basically yeah you’ve all played pro clubs before if you haven’t you uh say there was five of us in this room I would pick to be the Striker will might pick to be the left wing another one might pick to be the center back so on so forth um 11 positions and what we did was get eight of us eight of us in a room um all together playing pro clubs um and it was honestly some of the most fun I’ve ever had uh most fun I’ve had and I was just watching yeah it’s just great and like obviously you see the popularity girlfriend T it’s so good get them in a room together it changes it it’s like it feels like you’re playing real life football and and the celebrations you’d have after scoring a 90th minute winner to stay in like division 2 or something well there was one I remember you scored a last minute winner or equalize it and oh that was just AB the the absolute I think the peak of it was like in the 70th minute we were 3-1 down that was it to win we went to win 43 um and we ended up like yeah piling on each other and just ABS memories of a lifetime oh I will happily like I’m still Keen to possibly bring it back in some way shape or form but um it’s uh it was a good it was and that was probably perfect office to do it and then getting your eight PlayStations in there literally literally like we’d finish up for the day’s work and then we’d be like okay it’s time to record Squad goals um set it up I tell you what though got hot did it hot in there yeah especially when we moved down to the other studio um no windows and like we’d have to play we’d have to have this fan you two in the Box surely pick your man out and again is that Dragon he’s had a fantastic game he’s done very well can’t really give him man of the match when you win 3-0 but I mean everything he’s done he get back in front of his man really quickly reads it well there’s two men in there ready to capitalize on it nicely done if you’re Ukraine here just be a goal can be a fan on the pitch Romania blows he’s really happy he’s not actually doing anything he’s just too pissed I think great to leave the great to leave him on as well I mean if you’re going to pitch invade maybe just do that that was lovely was it worth it yeah I reckon so he touched him and like if you get to do it like get up there get your photo genely he just stumbled on there now he’s got a stadium band for the rest of his life never see a game of football ever again worth it well they’re winning 3-0 against Ukraine so maybe it was maybe maybe maybe he knows this is the peak Corner though oh my God pet ha really is man really really is that’s such a poor Corner such a poor Corner I’ve seen a few of them as well today um but no Squad goals if you get if you can bring that back here you go oh yeah it’s a he he’s done well there he’s beaten three men some much you got to get on the end of it um I’m going to pronounce his name wrong so I’ll go for your C Martinez says what’s your opinion on Michael Oliver’s decision so far in the Euros he had a stinker in the Spain game I didn’t watch it I didn’t watch it really big one on our podcast is looking at the referees and and you know hold them to account and it was just so we were like oh VR has been great so far everything’s been good been attentive and then it was Michael Oliver and just like I think he applied the rules correctly for the the retake of the penalty but then uh well the non- retake but then I just felt rogy should have been sent off because it one of them ones where you just take someone’s feet you know you’re never going to get the ball and it wasn’t a clear is football though not like for instance there are certain rules of football that are uh not subjective the opposite subjective uh objective yeah um and like like for instance offside uh goal line technology those are either is or isn’t um there are other side of football where I feel a little bit more Sympathy for the refs where it is just a level of I don’t think that is like for instance you think that is a red card purpose like sometimes your disagreement with the referee is just based on his opinion not actually that he’s reing it technically badly yeah but I think that comes that that’s fine without v as soon as V gets involved then you’ve got and and it was an all English V room as well so then it’s just like well we’ve had these bunch of all year and they’re ruining the not ruining the Euros it was just like and again like it might not be a clear red card to everyone now some people also said he’ died but then they’d gave the penalty so don’t know it just felt the first instance of V not working 100% Michael Oliver it’s weird because I just think whatever happens we’re never going to be happy there’s always going to be a conversation somewhere and this this be a hundred years time yeah there’ll be my grandkids grandkids we talking about how referees today and there a robot or something that is Pro programmed exactly or an AI or something I just don’t think I think we’re always going to complain and like if we take away VAR we’ll complain because we haven’t got VAR and if we have VAR we’ll complain because we got far yeah no it is true and then we also to be fair we also kid ourselves where we go what we want back is just when the game ends and then you go in the pub and you talk about their decisions got wrong it’s like no you don’t want that don’t want that how many times we got Frank lampard’s uh Frank lampard’s Germany or like uh and after that Jame we just went in the pub and we had to laugh about it yeah when it didn’t go over the line yeah we didn’t make J about it and get annoyed about it for about 10 years afterwards we literally still talking about it to this day uh George puscas on for um Romania a blo that Blues nearly signed that’s not family I don’t think they’re related like u i he was H hung I mean that’s a name to uh that’s a big name to live up to but he went to Ren didn’t really let the world like the world on fire and where is he now George pus oh my God he saved oh no that was Ukraine did that hit the crossbar I think did he sa I thought he put down I don’t think he caught what happened there the pace on this was ridiculous he just brought it oh I have gone over the top very good George puscast now is at Genoa and he was at bar on loan 84 appearances for Inter Milan sorry for Ren 17 goals W I think we sth that seven Ren signed him for 7.5 5 million in 2019 they used reading I remember readings bought um was it no was it Matt tubs oh you used to play for Crawley Town yeah um they got promoted this year C they did well that’s where I’m from originally from Crawley um their ownership is very interesting interesting is the correct word lovely that uh yeah no they are me they’re young uh they signed they signed Manny’s brother yes um who I think had like one appearance this season um yeah they are interesting but they got it working this year because they like they used a lot of like you obviously hear about like brenford do it and stuff like that like statistics and I don’t know why did that as if it was like a new thing in football um but they like signed for instance the uh most underperforming Striker uh His Name Escapes Me from the he was even a non- league or the league or whatever um the most underperforming Striker they signed him and they got the most underperforming manager statistically as in like sorry as in like their stats are saying they should be much better than where they are Oh I thought you just meant not just bad but it’s in like they should be doing better you think our system’s bad we’ll get the shittest player in for instance I think the striker for instance could have been like he should have scored 15 goals but he scored nine right and they got them in and uh and it worked wonders they came good they came good and yeah promoted promoted so we’ll see what happens next if you put a bit more work into your football manager mate that could be me exactly that could be me Never Say Never Never Say Never indeed indeed um uh Carin says I was surprised when I saw Romania winning 3-0 yeah a lot I think a lot of people had G I don’t know what the bookies had it I think they had Ukraine favorites not your boy 71 and there was actually someone who said 3-0 as well and that was in the if you said 3-0 um and even if you didn’t just say it was you we probably give you a shout out as well um ocean says been saying Romania will win this tournament for months um they’ve had a good game don’t get I mean they’ve scored more goals than England so does that make them favorites now um what else have we had in here uh Michael has been in charge so many bad decisions yet he’s making an impact on the Euros shame hand safe hands they’re getting closer Ukraine getting closer they do need something to go in very soon if they’re going to score another two no says mudrick has the skill but his football and brain is completely empty bit too far the IQ level I I get what I mean it’s been mentioned a few times about like his kind of footballing IQ and stuff he’s super talented like Dr again he’s done well there done really well um he’s super talented he just he needs coaching needs real coaching and that’s a shame is it when you’re flip flopping between managers ex and also not been chosen is it I thought the exact same thing there I was like does he realize he’s out 15 foot outside of his box keeper just called it 15 foot out we’ve got no sound didn’t hear the whistle we just thought we were going for a completely yeah big Euros moment there uh yeah no even if Ukraine could get one back just to keep that goal difference sort of reasonable just can be so big can’t it yeah well who who we said in the group Belgium um Belgium and Slovakia Slovakia yeah they needed to get something from this game I think minimum um I’m trying to think if I put I think in my predictions I put Romain bottom did you do a Euro prediction video on your channel I did yeah I think I had Romain go bottom so uh maybe don’t watch that video guys um delet one yeah exactly um but yeah it’s I think I said to win it I I said France will win it which again isn’t really pushing the boat out um but I do s i I did have France beating England in the semis or or something like that I’ve gone full England full England I normally do this what I mean but this time this year I’ve just not felt it no not felt it but I hope that changes hope that CH maybe it’s gone too far the other way where we think like we are actually too good and we have to bring it down a bit do you know what I mean yeah yeah yeah I’m hoping yeah I’m hoping actually good here like but then also like I was thinking if I go England as well all the comments in the video just going English bias you’re going to be picking England all the time it’d be good if we can beat Denmark whatever the score is have the six points on the board because of their draw there’s only going to be nobody can really beat us then and then give like Luke Shaw 60 70 minutes give Harry Kane a rest get Bellingham at the firing line just be able to have a team out there that’s yeah rest your stars really can on it no exactly yeah I think um as I mentioned earlier sacka I think is someone coming back from injury you don’t want to overplay him and when you got likes of when you got like England have like a ridiculous bench as well um I thought Bowen looked good when he came on I did thought Conor gallaga looked good looked good I thought Bowen’s a really uh I saw some people questioning about taking boen um would I have taken Jack Gish I probably would have um maybe one of them that was the only sort of on the fence one wasn’t it I’ll be really interested to see e e play some um play some minutes as well I think he kind of deserves it too like when you get a bit older people get so head up on like the like when it was Madison for the Qatar World Cup I don’t think he played a minute yeah and everyone was like he’s got to go if he doesn’t go we’re not going anywhere that’s why like they used to take that’s like for instance why they used to take like Conor Cody because they were like there are some players here that are just never going to play and they are so influential in the dressing room that it’s worth taking them bringing them along um and so yeah like I’m trying to think who that is this here really oh maybe it’s maybe there’s no codus there maybe that’s um uh but I was listening to something on five live basically someone was saying about how maybe South Gates learned from the Ben White incident yeah of about players that are in their mid 20s like going a bit more experien going to multiple tournaments not playing and maybe not having a negative influence but maybe not having a positive influence whereas if you’re maybe an A or you’re a your first tournament you’re really happy to be there yeah been around it yeah so maybe that infuses in another way I don’t know what’s happened with the Ben White thing there’s been so much speculation but you kind of do think that you know where we SE players retire you know like bar SKS did it as well didn’t he and even Ben Foster we do a lot of stuff with I think he did it just because you know you’re not going to G to play so um Ukraine looking an absolute mess at they just not got the final thing the final thing there someone ob one of the Defenders I think was had possession tried to do some sort of cut turn back and just did not work out did Marshall says who would you like to see replace Southgate as England manager pep guard yeah madri oh Z come on weak foot but yeah I agree like you need put that on you put that on target uh you know what I did his like third day at Chelsea um and he’s like a really yeah really nice that like super trains super hard trains really hard um all it like he’s doing the right things in terms of like it’s not just like oh barely he’s doing all the right things you’d want um sometimes it just needs to click uh it just needs to click and it hasn’t yet he should do better there though um I know it’s his weak foot but I always think like you’re a professional football player um you’re on the wing there you’re going down like G down as well you just got a little bit of cramp maybe um yeah next in the manager next manager um well I think pep will leave after this season so there is an actual thing where I’m I’m kind of being semi-serious about uh pep got me excited but uh I also think England are quite Keen to keep it like what we were saying yesterday is like obviously Lee Carley’s the under 21 manag but I can’t imagine it being I do agree as well but I think like for instance say a like they want to keep it with people who are um have association with the fa have good links like that’s why Gare I think has worked so well he knew the academy he knows how it works at the fa stuff like that um part of me wondered like what would happen with gr Potter if if he could if he could do that i’ there’s I don’t think they’d go and say for instance go and get a Frank Lampard or Steven Gerard I don’t think that would be happening because I also think yeah exactly yeah I think they I think they are pretty Keen to keep him English um there was a stat I think where it’s like in the last in the last like or in the entire competition uh of or or UEFA competition internationally um or Euros in the World Cup something like that only twice has the manager not been from the country really that they’ve W I think one of it was one of them was Greece yeah good documentary on that watch the German something else um which is kind of like but I do think there is like maybe that you do need that understanding from them to to have it work yeah um though again like if it was say Pep Guardiola or like Thomas Tule I’d be snapping your hand off for them um but I think you also need guys that understand that in International Football you’re not getting them every week like maybe the system you want to play can’t quite work and stuff um you got to be a people person as well haven’t you you’ve got to understand those Dynamics which big Sam I don’t think would have got 100% And like what Gare has done so well is the media got them on side uh doing the little things where he’s had them do like dark competitions with the journalist works so well um and also like having an understanding he just seems like a good guy like he’s not been super like super strict with certain things he hasn’t like banned the wives and stuff but then also the things that have come up you remember and it gets forgotten but I think in under in other managerial setups it would have been massive because they dealt with it so well remember when Joe Gomez and Raheem stering had that that was like a big thing for a day Sterling went back then he was part of the next Squad and it was fine 100% 100% I think I think some I think I think Gare SG is overly criticized yes um and actually quite underrated do I think he should be the man united boss no um but I think he’s actually quite overly I think he’s overly criticized I he’s done a very he’s done an incredible job for England and also people forget from where he was coming from yeah I know big Sam was there but the tournament before that was the Iceland game that’s probably the lowest moment in our what fun as well right like so many people were criticizing Gare Southgate because he’s always picks defensively and then he always does this and then this this tournament he’s gone for the complet opposite like he’s gone very attacking and trying to like play Trent in Midfield and everything like he’s never going to win whatever happens someone interal manager um but I think he’s done I think he’s done a fantastic job I really really do right we’re winding down in this game we got a few minutes left before stoppage time but Rania have been I think they were on the on the ropes a little bit and then they scored the the amazing goal which we’re saying goal of the tournament yeah and then they’ve just kicked on haven’t they so where do you think let us know in the comments where do you think Romania can get to in the Euros what are you saying s um well round of 16 dep they finish in the groups right quarterfinal if they have a little bit of luck go their way right now they’ve been really like as you said from the first goal they’ve been actually a lot more impressive played off the break a lot more um had a bit more possession as well second half they’ve definitely been uh well first half of the second half they were on it a lot more I think they went obviously they went through and a up it’s no surprise they’ve gone okay we’re going to sit back a bit more now absorb pressure makes a lot of sense they defended to they’ve defended well they’ve not allowed Ukraine to have that final pass um so overall pretty geared yeah I think uh I think coming into it a few of us had Ukraine down to win this one didn’t they but they’ve yeah I think maybe you know you always seem to get obviously at the World Cup it was Morocco yeah maybe Romania could be that I think they’ll give Belgium a good game from everything that we’ve seen yes yes we’ve seen today it’s tough I always like it’s tough to make these cor you see the first game um oh I thought G same um another Corner though I think Bobby dairo says we’re going all the way we love that if you just adopted him after one game fantastic if you’re from there there even better Austria will do well says um stepman um Austria will do well yeah I think so mapping says dragon come on you Spurs it’s coming home for Romania says Super Sub um last 16 says Saints yeah last 16 is fine you get I think there’s going to be one side in there that’s I think we when we did our tournament one it’s tough with the predictions there right because when you do the predictions and you’re trying to be like based off the squad and stuff yeah it like the the the the quarterfinals is like Germany England France Spain it’s always the the same things and that’s never how this works ever no there’s always one or to uh underdogs yeah because and also like I feel like when trippier went down last night and then I I turned to my M I was like he’s off he’s he like Luke Shaw’s not warming up Jay gz going to play left back as well and to be fair he didn’t go off end did he no no it was just CR they said in the in the postmatch stuff so hopefully everyone’s all right uh Romania will be a pleasant surprise that’s a nice word put it um drag in uh see you can’t win can you uh Tim Cen says drag us in a bit overhyped we we just talking about this game oh just always lost push yeah no he’s he’s defending the Box well I agree I thought he was a little bit overhyped when Spurs bought him in general but I think in this game defending the Box well was bit when they got him they G for cheap they G for cheap and did they steal him from somebody else like he was in the r memory was he ju I feel like he was in the running for like another top European side and basically yeah well when when I saw him again he’s not the starting center back for Spurs so like he was just like coming in at times out of not a lot of game time yeah um but I didn’t think I wasn’t that impressed I think one of the game I actually think the game he did start they lost 3-0 Bayern wanted him Matthew says that did want him Bayern want everyone well they’re transfer policy yeah that is definitely B in um I remember one of the guys who’s the I don’t know Chiefs up there when they bought Eric Dyer just about how it’s them Eric Dyer had a pretty good second half he did he did actually it shocked me to be fair um I don’t know bay are doing some weird stuff they have for a little while now uh their structure and stuff is quite odd also Ryan MC gevy says and Flash my memory says mudrick is also is awful Arsenal lucky they didn’t buy him but that’s your sentiment but just of how like it was nailed on he was going to Arsenal was yeah that’s where that’s oh off the bar off the bar something Ukraine they do deserve something ior push it’s Ukraine um yes because yeah and and they end up getting georgino and chart and yeah they did uh it’s funny yeah know because in the end obviously um uh that was kind of when B and and and Co really started making a bit more of a name for themselves um because I think if you read the articles they flew out there to go and get here convinced yeah him um but yeah no like he was always he’s always been raw like he still is raw there is definitely potential in him um it’s just about finding the right way of getting out of him and and he still has games with Chelsea where you go like he’s he’s been much better this season for Chelsea definitely like I don’t think he’s been that bad um and he’s improved massively uh he’s just he I think you always got to have let him have a little bit of an element of let him kind of do what he can like wants uh because he he that kind of player um but I can see also why Arsenal yeah like if you look at trossard and look at Burick makes complete sense why why Aral fans definitely aren’t that bothered you do need that Squad don’t you with the way that the relentlessness of Manchester City yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah sa save them more money as well and that way they went and bought her verts yeah exactly uh Ukraine going for one last push here yeah I mean goals are important for this tournament just like we keep saying team yeah exactly very very true um and I I wouldn’t be if I’m Ukraine I wouldn’t be overly disappointed um really in terms of like is in like oh my God out of the Euros kind of thing like my thinking is you had chances like you you just didn’t have that final ball the goal you could first go you can seeed is absolute worldy from a mistake from the from the thir one’s a mistake isn’t it exactly yeah yeah second one is another mistake from the goalkeeper um and so I wouldn’t be too yeah disheartened um but they do need to like take their chances they need to like make that final ball happen a lot more um and in the same breath Romania have defended really well defended really well and taken their chances there’s Madrid I might do it oh man I mean that is spe absolutely spectacular I think I might go dra is in Man of the match not the not one of the worldy attempts um I’m just trying to who scored the first goal cu the first goal put them in is a crazy Stan Q that it was a great strike and then Marin and dragus uh but man man got two assists okay but were those those assists were a little were they the uh yeah who got the assist was that the the third goal yeah um yeah I I mean there’s a couple of them I think that could have it to be fair one of the goal scorers uh man uh or Dragon get your man of the matches in the chat the full-time whistle has gone game over Romania 3 Ukraine nil well you know I was a bit worried about going into this game yeah 10 minutes in I was like bloody H we’re gonna have to be speaking doing this as your life here because we’re GNA have to pull something out of here um me and Zach will be back for

  1. Romania's going to be quite a nice surprise for everyone. It's a change of generations. And these dudes did quite well in the U19 team. I wish them the best in tournament, but the goal is to prep this generation for Worlds
