Hockey Update:
Montreal Canadian 4 Vegas Golden knights 1
Montreal leads best of 7 series 3-2 now. That 4th game for all of you who have watched the game over the years is the hardest one to win. The refereeing was much better than in the previous 2 games.
Game time will be on Thursday to see if Montreal can wrap it up in front of their fans (3500 fans because of restrictions) or have to go back to Vegas who will have 18,000 plus fans.
It wasn't all about Price this game although he made some key saves it was more a team effort in this one.

@trev33 saidWe beat Cameroon 3-2 after extra time. Come on, England winning a penalty shoot out!
Even Italia 90, didn’t they beat Cameron on pens? Cameron. The great English teams not so great after all.
Mind you, you could argue it was 'pens'. Seem to remember Gary L 'making the most' of the challenges.
Don't think any English fan is claiming 1990 was a 'great' team.A few exceptional players, a few less so.

@relentless-red saidElbow in the face only a yellow card? Laughable pen for France, hopefully that doesn’t put Portugal out, if Germany lose and France win its Hungary for Engerland 😱
@Trev33
If only Germany could keep clean sheets in the group stages like the successful German sides of yore. 🤔
Bet they'd like to trade places with Eng-er-land right now. 😁
Engerland... damn it, you’ve got me on it 😂

So all this finish second and get an easier draw bs, beat Germany and you have Sweden or Ukraine, then Holland, Wales, Denmark or some other rubbish team who I forget. Belgium, Italy, France, Portugal... all in the other side of the draw. Still want second Engerland fans? Anything but a place in the final with that draw is complete failure.

@relentless-red saidSome of them just owned an Irish wolfhound 😉
@Trev33
They key to tournament football is not conceding goals like the Italian and German sides of old.
Remember when big Jack put together a team of players whose great grandmothers had once visited Ireland. Got to the quarterfinals of the world cup by grinding out draws and winning on pens. 😉
@Trev33
So the Germans take the ball to the corner flag to hang on to 2.2 against Hungary. Concede within seconds of equalising. This is a team I want us to play. 😁
Edit: I heard the nationality of the wolfhound was in doubt.
