My Welsh isn't up to it. Why was his goal disallowed? Rodon offside? Impeding the keeper I think. I wasn’t wholly convinced it had crossed the line either! Rodon offside was the explanation. And to be fair I think a born and bred Welsh speaker would struggle with some of the words Nic Parry uses 😊

My Welsh isn't up to it. Why was his goal disallowed? Rodon offside? Rodon offside and allegedly impeding the goalkeeper. I think that was an incorrect call - Rodon's position made no difference whatsoever to the keeper's attempt to save the header - but, thankfully, it didn't matter. (There's one angle that clearly shows he wasn't in the keeper's way.)

Brennan was flagged offside, which he was under the old rules, but he was well to the right hand side of the penalty area, not in the keepers line of sight of the ball nor interfering with play.

After the Turkey game I was hoping that we'd get some luck with a ref, as usual it looks like we're constantly having to make out own luck. I'm not looking forward to the Polish gamesmanship on Tuesday, we need a strong referee to deal with that.

Daniele Orsini of Italy appointed to ref on Tues night. Always considered him to be quite solid.
He's ref'd a Champions League Final, and games at the World Cup Finals.
Still, wouldn't bet against him booking Kieffer if he thinks his arms are flaying around in the air. We don't really need another yellow card for Kieffer (or anyone else for that matter).

Daniele ORSATO - sorry, ref!

P.S. Ben to be skipper again on Tuesday - presumably no starting return for Rambo?

Hahaha Cookie taking Church aside before the first Euros game to let him know Bale was starting ahead of him just to get a laugh out of him, that's brilliant

Makes me proud that he's Welsh. Excellent game personally, led by example and volunteered for first penalty.
That huddle at the end also.
Consummate professional.

Ben Davies awarded UEFA A Licence: faw.cymru/news/ben-davies-awarded-uefa-a-licence/I found the link via the Coys (Spurs themed) Reddit page. Interestingly there was also the following comment about a spurs podcast he recently was on: "He was just talking about working on this on the gab and jules podcast released this week, very casual about the whole thing wouldn’t have thought he was nearly done. Interestingly he said in that interview that he isn’t fully set on being a manager yet - he’s also apparently quite interested in the business side of the game too and might go into that post retirement but said he wants to get all his badges done while he’s still a player so if he does choose to manage he won’t have to take a break from the game to do his licenses for a couple years after playing. Seemed a very smart guy in general and very interestingly talked about knowing from a young age he wasn’t the best player even at academy level and saw better players not make it because he had a better mentality towards it. I was kinda surprised he wasn’t made a captain this summer, based purely on seniority and evident leadership and communication skills I would have thought he’d be considered."
