Solid performance. Stuck to the plan well, defended well and had chances at the other end. Only worry is how we were hanging on a bit at the end of each half.
Referee was crap. Booked England players (rightly) for genuine but mis-timed attempts to win the ball, but let deliberate, cynical fouls by the French go.

Well said mrh, it annoyed me how tripping someone up who is going through on an attack is not a yellow card, but a slightly mistimed tackle that hurt noone is, muppet.

Fair performance, first half was more solid, the second half I felt the spark was gone there wasn't any attempt to score another goal, my only gripe was the referee with the French getting a ticking off while we received 3 yellow cards.
Just hope Sweden or Ukraine don't whack in many goals tonight, a goal less game will probably do us more of a favour methinks, England need to win their two matches to progress any further, I think. I feel Sweden and Ukraine are the weakest teams in the group, at least we drew against the formidable French side.

England need to win their two matches to progress any further, I think. A win and a draw should be enough. We could even get through with 4 points, depending on other results, though it's worth remembering head-to-head record is used as the tie-breaker at the Euros, rather than goal difference.

Ukraine seem to have made an impression on me 2 excellent goals, Sweden were a bit asleep at times, I think England can beat Sweden on Friday quite easily, Ukraine can be the dark house of this group, will they beat the French on Friday, based on todays Ukraine's performance.

Going into the tournament, I felt Ukraine were possibly the weakest team in the tournament and I still feel that but home advantage gives them a major boost.
Very disappointed with Sweden. They were my dark horses to make the semis but they were poor tonight. They could easily have got a draw though with some better finishing.

shevchenko scored 2 amazing headers, nice to see he still has it after being slaughtered by the media when he was at chelsea
as for england atleast they went to play football, a draw was fair but the ref tried his best to help france win

Solid performance by our midfield - I thought Gerrard, Parker and Milner all had strong games. The more creative players were disappointing, apart from that great spell in the first half. Defence generally robust, with Cole my pick.
I think we're underestimating Sweden. They now need a result against England. It will be a neutral venue, as opposed to being an away game. And there's a risk that we'll be a little too comfortable after getting that result against France.

I would rather play sweden with them needing a result, if they won they would play for a draw against us and get it cos we cant break teams down, the best chance to beat them is in an open game

If last night's game is anything to go by, Sweden are very dodgy defending set pieces, which is arguably our best chance of scoring.

Great game between Poland and Russia. Both teams went all out to win, which is really refreshing to see in a major tournament.

Scenarios for final round of games in Group A:
Russia will qualify for the quarter-finals if they avoid defeat against Greece. Russia will win the group if they beat Greece OR if both games are draws OR if they draw with Greece and Poland beat Czech Republic by less than 3 goals.
Czech Republic will qualify for the quarter-finals if they beat Poland OR if they draw with Poland and Greece don't beat Russia. Czech Republic will win the group if they beat Poland and Russia don't beat Greece.
Poland will qualify for the quarter-finals if they beat Czech Republic. Poland will win the group if they beat Czech Republic and Greece beat Russia.
Greece will qualify for the quarter-finals if they beat Russia and there is a winner in the Poland-Czech Republic game. Greece will win the group if they beat Russia by 3 goals or more and Czech Republic draw with Poland.
There are a number of scenarios where goal difference comes into play.

I've been meaning to make the comment for a while, England's goal was the 1st that stuck in my mind. I do mean more free kicks than corners as well, I dont think anyone has got a free kick over the wall and on target?
