Friday’s final fixture takes in the Group D clash between Spain and a Turkey side looking for their first points of Euro 2016.

This is the first time the two sides have met in a major finals, while in their previous 10 encounters Spain have won nine. Turkey’s only victory came in a World Cup qualifier in 1954.

Although Vicente del Bosque’s Spain won their first game 1-0 over the Czech Republic, the former World Cup winners were far from convincing with 13 of their 18 goal attempts failing to hit the target.

Turkey will be hoping Spain can continue their profligate goal threat after conceding a worrying 15 shots in the box in their 1-0 defeat to Croatia. Indeed, over their 13 European Championship games Turkey have kept just two clean sheets.

    Is there a place on the mcdonalds site on internet that has live scores of each player, rather than only being able to see how your own players are scoring?

    1. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nope, they are amateurs

      1. Horlicks esq.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        yeah. massively annoying.

        Anyone got the official assist scorers in this one.

        Ive got

        Morata and ?
        Nolito and Fabregas
        Morata and Alba

        1. Alan The Llama
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          ? = Nolito

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

    1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      He was the player I was most afraid not to own this week.

    2. Mavric Marco
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nolito is a decent option for a lot less

          It's the best game ever made. The II :Conquerors Expansion version, I.e. Best ever. No question.

  16. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    I think there's a good case to be made that Iniesta is as good a Ronaldo or messi

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      He's one of the best players ever, but he's not near Messi.

  24. Forza

    Come on del Bosque, stick Alba up front for a laugh.

  25. Liastro ⭐️
    • 13 Years

    Are we thinking that they'll be lots of rotation for the third group games, especially with hose already qualified?

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      That's enough, the grav needs to change back

      1. Optimus.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        😆

        I love it 😀

    2. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      To an extent yes, but they'll want to win the group for an easier next round.

    3. Optimus.
      • 14 Years

      BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

  26. DoubleO
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Is a - 4 hit worth it? I have yarmelenko and kane up front. Thinking of changing to stancu/Nolito and Bale

    1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      It might be worth it.

    2. Optimus.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Wait until Long and Lukaku score tomorrow before you make your decision

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I'd be surprised if Lukaku played, let alone scored.

        But yes, Long goal is certainty

        1. DoubleO
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Don't fancy lukaku and I'm not sure long can penetrate the beast Italian defence

  27. iCon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Been out to dinner so not seen the game. Seeing on some feeds that Fabs got assist for Nolito goal, but not on McDs. Any chance it'll be given?

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      It was headed into Nolito by a defender, so no assist.

      1. iCon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Ok cheers!
