- The early match saw both nation's strikers see usage in the lone Group B contest. Teemu Pukki (Matt) got Finland's lone shot on target and kept the ball in the Finns' possession more than they had any right to. Artem Dzyuba (Scott) assisted on Russia's winning goal which offset his fairly brutal passing statistics (61% completion).
- Mike was the only person who dipped their toes into the Wales/Turkey tie and was rewarded with a goal from Aaron Ramsey and joint top rating of the day with a 7.3 rated performance.
- The biggest game in terms of general stakes and usage was Italy/Switzerland. The winner more than likely would win Group A barring unforeseen blowouts on the final day of the group stage.
- Nevertheless, it was a bit of a roller coaster for all three people picked in this one.
- Trevor's selection of Giorgio Chiellini had a goal ruled out by VAR before asking off the pitch less than five minutes later.
- Federico Chiesa (Greg) missed out on the Starting XI but did enough in the second half after coming on to earn himself a respectable rating.
- Gianluigi Donnarumma seemed destined to sit on his hands for the majority of the match before a couple second half surges from the Swiss forced him into swift action. The soon-to-be PSG man made all of the right moves and saves to earn himself that previously mentioned top score tie with Ramsey at 7.3.
