So the UEFA Euro 2016 football begins today in France and goes on until July 10th.
I've started this thread for anyone who'll be following the tournament and wants to comment etc. Myself, I'll attempt to give updates each day.
The opening match is France vs Romania, which France should win. The Romanian's aren't the sort of team they had when Gheorghe Hagi and Dan Petrescu represented that nation.
Here's the UEFA Euro 2016 official website, with the match fixtures.

FT Italy 1 Sweden 0.
The goal at 88 minutes from Citadin Martins of Internazionale.
Our great friends Croatia.
Viva Republika Hrvatska.
Group D.
Czech Republic vs Croatia KO at 6pm at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard in Saint-Étienne.
Czech Republic 0 Croatia 0 at 28 minutes.
The Czech defence is pretty shaky, Croatia have already had about 7 attempts at goal.
Croatia in total control of this match.
It can't be much longer before Petr Čech is beaten.
That's just happened.
Czech Republic 0 Croatia 1 Ivan Perišić of Internazionale at 37 minutes.
Czech defence now worse than it was before the goal, also the Czech midfield is pretty chronic now.
Terrible referee decision, Croatia were about to take a corner and the referee blew the whistle for HT, the Croatians not happy, they shouldn't be.
HT Czech Republic 0 Croatia 1.
SH has just begun.
Croatia already on the attack, Czech Republic all at sea like they were in the First Half.
Czech Republic just had their first shot on target, saved though by Danijel Subašić of AS Monaco, who's Croatia's third choice as goalkeeper, they usually have Ivan Vargić of HNK Rijeka of the Prva HNL (Croatian top league) in goal.
Czech Republic 0 Croatia 2 Ivan Rakitić of Barcelona at 59 minutes, a beautiful goal.
The Czech's are a complete shambles, this match is now over and probably Euro 2016 is also now over for the Czech's.
Croatia substitution at 62 minutes, this illustrates how comfortable the Croatians now are, Luka Modrić of Real Madrid off and Mateo Kovačić of Real Madrid on. When they can take Modrić off, that says it all.
Well this came out of the blue, Czech Republic 1 Croatia 2 Milan Škoda of Slavia Praha at 77 minutes, a very good header.
At 83 minutes Croatia need to keep it together in the defence and just constantly stay on the attack.
At 86 minutes Croatian fans throwing lit flares onto the pitch, must be about 15 of them, now a massive explosion from a firework. WTF?! What does this say about how crap the security must be that people can bring flares and fireworks into the stadium.
Some sort of massive fight happening now between it looks like RIVAL Croatian fans, punching, kicking....WHERE is the SECURITY?!
What a group of morons, Croatia are WINNING the match and at 86 minutes these idiots do this, WTF when the game restarts I hope the Czech's don't score.
Game currently stopped.
Game restarted at 90 minutes, but the fighting in the stands is continuing, a line of riot police has appeared now, bizarrely just along the touch line, but no going into the stands to intervene in the fighting.
OMG the Czech Republic have a penalty.
This is the fault of the morons fighting, their behaviour has obviously affected the Croatian team, who've lost concentration.
Czech Republic 2 Croatia 2.
Serious violence in the stands now.
Croatia in domination of this match, even when the Czech's got their first goal, then the moronic group of about 30 Croatian fans causing trouble at 86 minutes has just messed the Croatian Mojo up. Any team would be thrown into chaos after such a disruption.
Those stupid Croatian fans need slapping and deporting.
I expect UEFA will be taking action.
Now playing 10 minutes added time.
FT Czech Republic 2 Croatia 2.
Croatia still through with 4 points, Czech Republic only on 1 point. Had those stupid Croatian fans not caused all that crap it would have been 1-2, but a draw is enough for Croatia.
