Wednesday evening treats Fantasy managers to four more Euro 2016 fixtures before the curtain comes down on the group stages.

First up at 5pm, all four teams in Group F have a chance of progressing to the final 16.

With a single goal from 49 attempts, profligate Portugal have done little to justify their place as pre-tournament favourites to top the group but know that a win against Hungary will be enough to earn them at least a runners-up spot.

Iceland and Austria do battle in the other fixture. Like Portugal, the latter arrived as one of the dark horses for the tournament but have been a major disappointment and failed to score in their opening two fixtures, managing just four efforts on target. Iceland, meanwhile, have registered just 12 attempts on goal thus far – a tally superior only to Sweden’s 11.

Given that the second-placed team in Group F will face England in the next round, the Three Lions will be keeping a keen eye on the results here.

Indeed, considering that the Group F winners square up the runners-up in Group E – which look likely to be Belgium – topping the table could prove a less appealing route into the knockout stages.

    Ronaldo for Portugal

    129 free kicks - 4 goals

    5 penalties - 1 goal

    How has he now been dropped such a negative on the team

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Dropped from set pieces I hope you mean

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Just dropped full stop

        Team would be better for it as he has such a negative impact on his team mates and morale

        1. Ayew Serious
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 1 month ago

          No. Just no

    2. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      ....and massive underachievers over the last 8 - 10 years, I think I see the connection 😉

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        He expects everything to go through him which stops the rest of the team from getting a chance to show how good they could be

    3. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      He'd throw a strop if he was taken off pens/set pieces.

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        He throws strops anyways.

  25. Scoring freely
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    What a useless footballer Nani is, head the ball out properly you gimp!

    1. Jay_
      10 years, 1 month ago

      He could have blocked the goal too, turned his back and jumped out the way

  26. VS10_
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Ronaldo free kick on target, ooh 😀

  27. Ayew Serious
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Could have been Austria pen

  28. Sauzée
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is there an established Ronaldo drinking game?

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      - take a shot everytime we see a close up of ronaldo

      - take a shot everytime cristiano attempts to score but doesn't succeed

      - take a shot minus a lime everytime we see CR7's (XD) hot, frustrational moment

      - take a triple shot every time he scores

    2. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      If you get to throw the bottle at him after you've finished I'd be up for playing that!

    3. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      In Portugal they drown a shot whenever he wastes a one on field. They're all hammered when the match is over.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Dooski wants a bit of this!!!

    4. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Drink loads then urinate all over him

  29. Camp No No
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 1 month ago

    lol if Portugal doesn't advance from this group! 😆
