In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
Surprised a Croatian didn’t just leg a player as they attacked. Hindsight
Bid 80m for Calafiori tonight! Such a shame he is suspended. Worst rule in all sports
Really unfair on Croatia tbat, the ref pulled back for a freekick when the Croatian was in one on one with the keeper then Italy go straight up the other end and score.
I'm sorry, but why exactly 8 minutes?
To be fair, that was a great finish. Not just lucky
What a goal. Calafiori made that on his own.
Juranovic is brain-dead.
Hungary got a chance of going through now on 3 points. That's one group where 3rd place won't make it.
Croatia not beating Albania has ultimately cost them.
Thanks for saving my bet at the very last second. 1-1 is probably a fair result.
Not deserved on that second half.
Football, bloody hell
This tournament has been something else.
For those of you who responded to me about whether I should turn on the Italy game and seemed to indicate it was shite: "you're welcome".
I am done with football
Calafiori is a gem. If we have stupid money for a CB I'd love him.
Italy were by far the better team on the night but both teams are a bit shite.
Because Italy needed 7 and a half.
The ref let the play on too. An English ref would stop and give a FK
Bloody Italy. 
Sorry, misread draw. Switzerland won’t be easy?
Oh man, the emotion. This is what makes the international tournaments so very special.
Croatia from elation to despair in the very last minute. What a way to go out.

Deserved though, Croatia have been rubbish this tournament.
Brutal
Croatia deserved to win based on that second half, but that's football.
Yeah, terrible player.
Yeah, terrible player.
Yes this was their undoing, not acceptable for such a large gulf in ability.
Fantastic, we're happy! Forza Italia!
2nd game in a row Croatia concede in the last seconds. They should have easily finished 2nd in this group.
Ten Hag would lose his shit trying to fit two left footed CBs in the team though.
Italy are awesome. They find a way.
Croatia almost lost that game too
Typical Italy
You just can't write them off.
You just can't write them off.
Croatia finally come undone in a major tournament.
Get rid of him then.
Italy produce world class defenders for fun. Calafiori and Bastoni were both amazing tonight.
Oof Italy didn't look like scoring at all there. Then bang, brilliant goal.
Swiss-Italy is a lock to go extra time I think.
Italy will want revenge for the 2022 qualifiers.
Italy will want revenge for the 2022 qualifiers.
Probably deserved actually all in all
Spalletti should explain why he went with a coward lineup and the team spent an hour scared of their shadow....especially considering the last 20 minutes we played some decent football
