    France 3-0 up against Iceland. Just love how Giroud always performs for the French national side. Do miss him at Arsenal.

    Edit: 4-0 now. Griezmann this time.

    Could really have needed a third striker this season. Lacazette and Aubameyang have played a lot. Wonder if Welbeck will continue at Arsenal?

    England have developed the conveyer belt to compete with the best, having Southgate as England manager who was so involved with improving the England setup is perfect.

    Haven't really been keeping up to date with much football recently. Glad to see northern Ireland have turned our disastrous league of nations results around and started with two wins. Ok it was against the poorest two teams in the group but still great start!

    Good results for Northern Ireland, and valuable points!

    An opening as expected between Norway and Sweden. Stuff happening in both ends of the pitch, but no goals after 30 mins.

    Edit: 1-0, Maars Johnsen! 41 mins played.

    Edit:…and it's 2-0! Joshua King with the goal.

    Edit 3: 2-1 now. A penalty for Sweden, which Andreas Granqvist misses, before Viktor Claesson puts the rebound in the net. A huge chance for Sweden again straight afterwards, so this match is very open at the moment!

    Edit 4: Damn! 2-2. Robin Quaison takes a shot, which goes via Håvard Nordtveit and into the net.

    Edit 5: Damn, damn, damn! Sweden scores again in added time. Again Robin Quaison with the goal. Think Norway needed to win this game to have a realistic chance getting through the group stages.

    2-0 to 2-3 in added time is painful to watch! I'm not surprised though. Looking at the game as a whole, Sweden has been just as good, if not better than Norway. There's a reason why Sweden qualifies for tournaments and our national side does not.

    Edit: 3-3, Ola Kamara! What a thriller of a game! Don't think one point is enough to have a shot at finishing second in the group though. For this game alone on the other hand, it's wonderful getting a draw this late!

    Indeed it was! I think Sweden and Spain will finish top of the group when all games are played. Sweden even had some absentees as well, with Victor Lindelöf being one of them.

    Highly doubt it! Norway has hardly been over the half-way line so far…

    Edit: This is an incredibly boring match.

    Norway pen and King scores, making it 1-1 in added time. Needed a win though (I think).

    Draw not a bad result against Spain, just seen the full time scores, a bit clumsy from Kepa

    Kepa gifted Norway that 1-1 there. In isolation a decent result.
