A lot of firsts in the game, Poland’s first win in EURO and Northern Ireland’s debut in EURO finals.

Poland midfielder and man of the match Grzegorz Krychowiak says this–

“We understood that the first match is very difficult, we were prepared for that. The next matches will show that we can be even better and go further. We can do a lot, but we shouldn’t be overly optimistic having only won the first match. We should take it calmly with a cold-headed approach. We need to run our socks off, but I’m not hiding the fact that we want to win it.”

It was an early lead for Wales as Bale scored in the 10th minute of the game. It took another 50 minutes before Duda tied it for Slovakia but eventually Wales had the go-ahead goal from Robson-Kanu.

Manager Chris Coleman praised the impact of substitute and Wales’ winning goal scorer Hal Robson-Kanu

“Well, look, sometimes you make substitutions, sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t. We needed to get further up the pitch. That’s what Hal gives us. He came on and he got in behind the defence, he got our defenders ten or twenty yards further up the pitch which meant it was away from our goal because they were there for too long, fifteen, twenty minutes on top of us. But we got out. We got a goal. We should, or could, have had one more, or two more. Overall, a fantastic performance.”

Slovakia midfielder Ondrej Duda —

“Of course I’m glad about the goal, but my feelings are not the same as if we’d won the match, or if it had been a draw, so it’s kind of strange, We were just lacking some luck, because they scored a goal where the player didn’t hit the ball properly, but unfortunately for us, it went in.”

Switzerland was able to score early in the game and looked like they coasted along the game while Albania was aggressive throughout the match but just couldn’t deliver.

As Switzerland notes —

“First we played with the tempo we wanted then we sat back a bit. We allowed the opposition to be a bit more aggressive. “The Albanians were a bit shocked after the goal and we were able to play with a bit more freedom, but they reacted well to the sending off. “I watched the Romania game yesterday. I saw France really struggling to beat them. They are very physical and well set up, but I always play to win.”
