I am very shook up after todays events. He was one of my favourite players to watch when he was in the prem. I was watching when Muamba collapsed and this was all too similar. Total shock. Wave of relief when news reached that he was stable. Truly amazing job the emergency services do, you are the real heroes of our world.

Real gifts from the Russians for both Belgium goals. Really could do with a home goal now to keep this interesting. Nice touch from Lukaku after his goal, I take it that was a message to Erikson (who he plays with at Inter).๐ Not sure what to think about the Denmark Finland game, be interesting to learn how the decision was taken to continue with the game. Sure that was very distressing for both teams, not sure everyone would have been in the right frame of mind to continue. That said, amazing result for the Fins, that certainly wasn't in the script. Mentioned after the Belgium Russia game on itv that both teams decided to resume the match once they had news Christian Eriksen was stable in hospital, The alternative was to resume midday on tomorrow (Sunday).

An emotionally exhausting day after an emotionally exhausting 15 months.
Kieffers beautiful equaliser was eclipsed by the wonderful news of Eriksen being alive. A terrible thing to witness. I turned the tv off almost immediately after seeing Kasper gather the team round his stricken body, and could think of nothing else.
Many many things I love about England and itโs people but I also thoroughly look forward to you getting knocked out of the completion sooner rather than later.
But more that anything I just hope we can all enjoy another few weeks of football as carefree as possible.

We're happy this morning.
In Wrexham, we're dancing on the streets. It was a long day yesterday for people watching a 2 pm KO Thousands packing the town. Club taken over. Ambition etc And now still in it in the Euros
No wonder we're happy. Wrexham FC are going to be your noisy neighbours sometime soon.
And we've played the Swiss, ranked in the top 10....fought back and drew.
Came from behind to earn a great point against a Swiss team ranked in the top 10.
It's a bloody ba3t4rd of a ba3t4rd hard group as well.
It's been another great weekend again. Lot's of celebrating. Merriment etc
I predict Croatia being difficult for you. The usual autopsy on a late grab draw. Or even better, a defeat
We (swiss) roll on to Wednesday

Dancing in the streets of Wrexham for not going home with nil points whilst excitedly chatting about the visits of Boreham Wood and Bromley next season. You couldn't make it up.

As for you being our noisy neighbours you've always been noisy, but apparently empty vessels have a reputation for making a lot of noise.

Theyโre actually ranked 13th anyway, so youโre wrong. 13th wasnโt in the top 10 when I was in school. But growing up in Wrexham when everybody had 13 fingers I see how this can be confusing for you.

The trouble is, in wxm town centre, they've all got red tops on, so you dont know whether they're wales fans, liverpool fans or welsh rugby fans.most of em speak with scouse accents so I'm assuming they're all liverpool fans, 'is that right our kid'!!!๐คฃ๐๐๐๐ฅด๐ฅด๐ฅด

As expected Grealish on the bench sums up southgates approach to England.
Find it quite bizarre the incessant build up playing 3 at the back to then jettison it for the first game against quality opposition whilst also picking less specialist fit midfielders for a 433.
I'll be very very happy with a point today.

I saw one once in Wrexham as well, it was a bloke on the kerbside with a begging bowl and cardboard box. How unfortunate can you get, homeless and to compound your misery someone donates you a Wrexham shirt.

Not really surprised if Sterling does start - even though he is not in the best of club form his pace and ability to run in behind stops teams pushing up on England and will let Kane drop deep occasionally to provide some assists. Fans of Grealish need not despair - hopefully this will be a long tournament for England and he will no doubt play an increasing role in it as it progresses.

For the older Welsh fans, the first International tournament I remember is the 1958 World Cup with the best ever Wales side.
John and Mel Charles. Ivor Allchurch, Roy Vernon, Cliff Jones, Terry Medwin and Jack Kelsey in goal. Beaten 1 -0 in the quarter final by winners Brazil.
While hoping England win I wish all the best to the other home nations. My Mum was Belgian and loved sport. I asked her who she supported when England played Belgium, she said she shouted for Belgium at football and England if we were to play Belgium at cricket.

Dreadful line up considering what's available.
What must Shaw & Chilwell be thinking.

Dreadful line up considering what's available. What must Shaw & Chilwell be thinking. Exactly I feel totally deflated after seeing that line up. Shaw, Sancho, Grealish and Rashford shouldโve started. Iโm gobsmacked.
