    Got to feel for him there, could have just caught that to be honest.

    When you invite as much pressure as Slovakia have done though, an error by one of their players was about to happen at some point in the game.

    Slovakia looking at going out here now, due to scoring less goals than Ukraine? I can only see Spain scoring more goals as well to destroy Slovakia's goal difference from here on in.

    He goes from sun, to shade and back to sun just before the ball got to him, but he couldn't have done any worse there.

    Blimey - talk about the contrast a goal keeper can have .

    One minute saving a penalty then punching the ball in your own net the next !

    The problem Enrique has is most players are a few levels below the brilliant generation that came before them. Busquets still absolute quality on the ball

    I think when he jumps, the sun catches his eyes. It's not an excuse for him, blindfolded he should have put it over the bar but there's usually some form of reason behind something that calamitous.

    Circled you can see the shadow of his arm and head, which shows the sun has come across it just as he's at the height of his jump.

    Oh dear, the keeper has had a nightmare. Slovakia look poor.

    To borrow an expression from Kirby. Are Spain shíthousing their way into the last 16?

    Should be easily betting Slovakia. We were even better than them in the playoffs

    They'd be going through with a 0-0 draw regardless to be fair. Looks like it'll be Croatia, rather than Belgium as a result.

    Ukraine will be chuffed with this result though as it keeps them going in to the last 16, with 3 points and a -1 goal difference. For all the talk of how four points might not be enough this time, it's ended up being exactly the same as last time so far - needing to beat 3 points with -2 goal difference.

    It gives Finland the slimmest of hopes too. Great result for Ukraine though as you say.

    This Sweden v Poland game has really livened up. Great goal from Lewandowski.

    Drinks break has really killed the momentum in this Sweden v Poland game.

    Spain have done their job so all on Poland as to where they finish.

    As long as they dont go to the bar but stay seated as Covid keeps away when sitting down.
