Football Euro-2024, June 14 - July 14

German public transport in a nutshell

Some Austrian fans didn't even make it in time earlier today because our trains suck.

Deutsche Bahn: 2
UEFA: 0

So far.

And I am not even counting the knife attacks and murders committed during the Euros so far.

Now the whole world will finally see how ****ed up Doucheland actually is. And I am so here for it.

Maybe you should move somewhere that will make you happy because being “here” for knife attacks and murders suggests to me that you are not well.

I was in Stuttgart last night (to go see a documentary on the German artistics gymnastics as part of a documentary movie festival) , but on a non-game day, there seemed to be more police-officers than football fans Guess it would be different tonight!
We walked by the "Fan-Zone" though, since our event was directly next to it. Generelly there didn't seem to be any chaos due to the football, just 500% more security.

Albania 1-0 over Croatia ten minutes in.

 

[quartz]

Croatia evens it up at 1-1, and then an Albania own goal makes it 2-1. I like Croatia, but also like rooting for the underdogs.

 

[quartz]

Albania scores in extra time 2-2!!

 

[airgelaal]

2-2
Good result for a good match

 

[quartz]

Ooohhh… LOVE Germany’s uniforms!

 

[quartz]

Third game of the day. I am being productive, at least, between games. Purging, reorganizing, gathering things for donating. Doing okay today.

 

[quartz]

Switzerland own goal, 1-0 for Scotland!

 

[Buzz]

Oh dear…

[airgelaal]

Switzerland 1-1 Scotland

 

[Buzz]

Switzerland ruled offside and it is still 1-1

Scotland isn’t going quietly into the night.

Can someone explain what the point of the off side rule is? Seems to me it’s just there to stop teams scoring goals which is something that would make the sport infinitely more interesting.

Not really. If this rule does not exist, then each team will have a different playing strategy. And I’m sure that we won’t see the game as such.

Slovenia 1-0 Serbia

You say that like it is a bad thing.

Serbia ties it up at the very last second!

 

[quartz]

England/Denmark tied at 1 each. Ten minutes to halftime.

 

[Buzz]

And so it ends 1-1

You say that like it is a bad thing.

Yes, I think so. I myself played football as a goalkeeper. Without this rule, there will be chaos in the penalty area, and for goalkeepers it will be a nightmare.
