I’ve got Slovakia in work sweepstake so I was cheering to the roof when the goals were disallowed.

Hat-trick complete ... has now had more goals disallowed than anyone else has scored 😂
So all of us who backed bonnie Scotland to get through the group stages are licking their wounds this morning….
Not to mention the one person* that gambled on Germany not progressing ...
*me

I did notice that Shawn and thought it was a very bold move….
So that was the group stage ... how we doing?
Here’s an update ... Keith’s opened up a nice lead, with a fantastic 11 out of 12 picks finishing in the top two ....

All to play for however ... though myself and Alan have some catching up to do!!
(Meanwhile: Golden Boot leader at the moment plays for ... Georgia ... picked by ... none of us 😂)
Looking ahead to the knockouts that start on Saturday ... here’s an overview of our picks:

Cheers all ...
Hmm. After the success of the Chimpions League it seems my football management energy is somewhat depleted. I will now try and recharge my batteries for the next round by staying up all night watching the current government being destroyed…
Morning ........
Update following the conclusion of the quarter-finals ... all looking very tight at the top ...
... although, with all the leaders having picked France to win, Esme could come through the pack with Spain, or Paul with England!
NB - in the race for the Golden Boot, and with all of our remaining picks covering France and England ... France have no players who have scored more than one goal, and England have two players who have scored 2 (Kane and Bellingham) ... need to catch Gakpo who has 3 goals for the Netherlands and Mkikautadze who scored the same for Georgia (who are out). However, there are also 2 Spain players and another from the Netherlands who have also scored 2 who are also in with a chance.)
