Ben Fisher was at the BVB Stadion Dortmund this afternoon, and his verdict has landed. Here it is! Congratulations/commiserations to France, just commiserations to Poland, and thanks for reading this MBM.
France’s failure to hold onto that lead is costly. They’re now in the same side of the draw as hosts Germany, Spain and Portugal. Should England win Group C tonight, they’d be in the other half, with a route to the final that on paper looks significantly easier. Then again, Austria. And if they don’t, chances are they’ll be playing Germany in the next round. Probably wisest to wait and see how it all comes down, though where’s the fun in that?
