    Massive game for both teams. A win for either probably eliminates the other. Belgium are the favourites and Italy should qualify (at least be difficult to beat), so these two squads have to get something probably a win from this game.

    Zlatan is the star name, while Emil Forsberg has looked sharp thus far with Guidetti and Hiljemark two other potential key attacking minded players. The Irish will look at this game, looking to avoid a situation like Euro 2012 where they left pointless.

    Tommy Smyth with the color comm. This'll be fun.

    Also, John O'Shea sucks and will cost Ireland a goal, no doubt. I'm supporting Ireland, I went there on Spring Break and took in the Switzerland match, but they're making a mistake with O'Shea. Duffy is the much better option at this point.

    Shouldn't be any shenanigans in the crowd today. So, that's good.

    O'Shea shoulda opened the scoring there - but he sucks, you know.

    Surprised they haven't mentioned that Darren Randolph was USA eligible at one point. (he was, right?)

    They keep mentioning that Ireland is the oldest squad in the tourney. Keano & Given really ruin the mean, though, being 58 & 66 respectively.

    Bad decision by McCarthy - shoulda saved the "professional foul" for when it was really needed.
