Golden Genetation of individuals. That's what Belgium were. Wales played like a team the way they have all tournament. That's why they're moving in and why they'll beat Portugal as well. I agree, I think Wales should have no problem taking out Portugal. Although you never know in this sport, but Portugal haven't overly impressed me. At this point, I'm predicting a Germany/Wales final that should be a very good match and I give the edge to Germany.

Blimey, I put France - Island on and 25 minutes in we're already leading 2-0. Good work, boys. No idea what you did but keep doing it.

Giroud is so much better when he's not the only target man.

France 3-0 up and seem to be coasting to the semi-finals.
Giroud, Pogba and now Payet scoring.

One step too far for Iceland.

Holy shit what a different team from the one that got us used to struggling to get a goal until the 85 minutes mark!

And now 4. Griezmann.
Surely now it's over.

Well, as Wales' fairytale continues, Iceland's is well and truly over. They have done themselves proud, though.

4-1. Sigthorsson goal. Comeback still probably not going to happen, but nice to see the deficit reduced at least.

Island's still in there. Don't let your lead get to your head, boys.

And then Giroud scores again. 5-1.

Gunnarsson's lucky he didn't take a red card. He gratuitously straight-up charged the other guy without even pretending to be going for the ball, right in front of the ref and then had the galls to act surprised.

Full-time: France 5-2 Iceland
Comfortable win for France, and a good confidence booster ahead of the match against Germany.

So for the semi-finals, we have:
Portugal vs Wales Germany vs France
It'd be nice to see Wales win it, but wouldn't mind Germany or France either.

Great effort until the end from Iceland but France had far, far too much quality tonight. They play like that against Germany and they'll give them a hell of a game. Gunnarsson's lucky he didn't take a red card. He gratuitously straight-up charged the other guy without even pretending to be going for the ball, right in front of the ref and then had the galls to act surprised. For the shove on Griezmann? It was a foul but that's never a red card. Ever.
