The attempted spectacular 50/60 yard pass - Gerrard used to produce loads of them , occasionally succeeding in finding the target.

Ukraine looked so much better than NI. I don't know what you're on about. They had Germany on the ropes going into half time.
Pundits completely overdoing the Germany praise.

Just a bit, as they got far more luck then we did.
They made some serious errors at the back today Germany, they will have to sort that out for the next match, as Lewendowski will not be as wasteful as the Ukraine's were tonight.

I think you are right, mainly on the first half. Second half was rather a disappointment as Ukraine simply couldn't lift themselves and Germany didn't really do much to excite.

The Ukrainians will target the Northern Ireland match as the chance to rack up their goal difference enough to at least be one of the best third place qualifiers.
I don't envy Michael O'Neill having to find the right balance between defence and attack in setting up his side for that match.

The first half was great, but I wouldn't say the second half was that exciting.
Disappointed Ukraine couldn't keep it up.

Very good first half, bit dull in the second half until right at the end.

I avoided the pundits, nor did have to have someone incessantly bangin' in my ear for 90 minutes. Sheer bliss, I chose the "no commentary" option. All the atmosphere and none of the irritations.
