[football] EURO 2024

[vegasus]

And Germany, as what we expected.

The two goal win for Germany did not come so easily because they had to fight and really struggle for it, Denmark was not an easy team for them to play.

Of course, this victory was not an easy victory. We know very well that neither Germany nor Denmark are small teams. If we look at the statistics, it is also quite strict. It's just that Germany has more chances and attack percentage than Denmark.

The first goal scored was a penalty goal, of course this was not easy because there was also a psychological battle involved. However, Havertz was really able to control it and was the successful executor who made it a goal in the deciding match.

This time, Germany qualified for the Quarter Final round. And later we will wait for the opponent between Spain vs Georgia.

Meanwhile, currently, the match between Spain vs Georgia is still ongoing. Spain is still ahead.
For now it is:
Spain vs Georgia
 2 - 1
update minute of 71

The final result, Spain 4-1 Georgia.

Most goals were made by the midfielders of Spain team. I think this Span Euro team isn't so different with the golden era of Spain national team, they are very strong in the midfield line. The positive side of the current Spain team, they look like stronger in the defense line as well. But it looks not strong enough in attacking line.

This time, Germany qualified for the Quarter Final round. And later we will wait for the opponent between Spain vs Georgia.

Spain will meet Germany. This will be a big match, it is difficult to predict which team to win and qualify for the next round. Since Germany team looks having more experienced players, I guess Germany will qualify for the next round. This will be crucial match for Kroos and Gundogan. They look to retire after this competition.

Amazing!
Spain really conquered Georgia very well.
Spain remains the favorite and they did it very well, until they even didn't give Georgia any chance to attack and create a goal.

And this is proven. Spain qualified for the QF round with a very satisfying score:

Congratulations to Spain. Next, they will fight against Germany
It will be, What a...... QF match.

Georgia's team was over the moon after the first own-goal, but the idyll didn't last very long. Spain locked them in on their own half and the execution began.
Still, getting through to the knock-out stage was a historical achievement for Georgia, so they have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of and will return home as heroes.
Spain has shown they're on a different level and I see them as a favourite to win. They will face Germany in the quarter-final, which is probably the toughest team to play against, but I think they have what it takes to go through.

Spain really showed that they have a different level of play. And yes Spain won as expected by the majority of people. Maybe the challenge for Spain is the quarter-final against Germany. And I think these two favorite teams are quite unlucky because they have to meet each other in the quarter-finals. even though I feel these two teams should meet at least in the semi-finals. But it's actually quite difficult to see which is better between Germany and Spain. But I personally might still favor Spain.

Incredible Switzerland!
Great job Germany!

It's a tough match.
Denmark got a goal in the 50th minute. However, with VAR, Denmark's goal was ruled out.

And Germany got a penalty kick in the 52nd minute, after VAR review. So, Kai Havertz did it well, with full confidence and scored from the penalty. And it was complemented by Musiala's successful kick which became Germany's second goal.

what did I say?  since I know a lot about Italian football
the staff of the Italian team is really poor, not up to par and it wasn't just me who said it but also Fabio Capello.

the obvious outcome was to go out in a scandalous way, would it have been more dignified not to participate?  We will never know
 but losing 2 - 0 against Switzerland is a huge humiliation

[Uruhara]

After seeing how Spain managed to beat Georgia quite easily, I am even more confident in favoring Portugal who will face Slovenia today. Because Portugal will also be very favorite in this match. And I think Slovenia could have the same fate as Georgia. But for the France vs Belgium match, I'm a little doubtful about who I will favourite. but maybe France is indeed more worthy of being favored.

...

After Italy's departure from the tournament I believe that many will support Spain, very similar in style of play and certainly a fresh team with excellent dribbling.
 I see her as a possible candidate to win now that she has also started scoring goals.
 I have to say that I'm also a little envious of the Spanish fans, we've really sucked as an Italian national team for years.

Well you're right. Spanish fans are currently very satisfied with the performance of the Spanish national team. In fact, Spain only conceded once, namely yesterday. And even that was an own goal. So it can be said that Spain's defensive fortress has not yet been completely penetrated by any team at this time. It was a shame that Italy had to be eliminated so quickly. I want to talk a lot about my disappointment with Spalletti. But yeah that has happened and hopefully in the next euro Italy can be even better.

[Harkorede]

Germany seems the strong candidate fpr the Euro 2024 einner after impressiblve performance when defeating Denmark over 2-0, played well last night amd waiting the opponent teams on quarter final.

Germany does look like a great candidate to win the tournament, but so does Spain in my opinion, I think I'd rate Spain even much better than Germany currently.

Both Spain and Germany would be facing each other in the Quarter finals, maybe it's actually safer to presume that whichever team wins the match would go all the way to win the trophy, however, it's easier said than done.

[Lucius]

I was somehow convinced that Switzerland would manage to win in the end, but I hoped that at halftime it would still be a draw, just like in the second game. However, I am glad that the Swiss won because they are definitely the better team, and even if the opponent was Croatia instead of Italy, I doubt that the outcome would have been different.

As for today's matches, anything but a convincing victory for the favorites would be a big surprise. Being the first in the group definitely has its advantages.

I was actually looking for that post of yours to call you out, because you saw it coming all along, I don't know if you do gamble ? maybe  you could have had some money on the line for that match. Italy were completely outplayed and outclassed by Switzerland. Switzerland played with an extremely high level of confidence, their movement on and off the ball last night was definitely one of the best I've seen in this tournament, they turned the underdog tag the other round.
~snip~

If we're going to be realistic, Italy should have already lost to Croatia if it wasn't for the inexplicable 8 minutes of extra time, so it was not completely unrealistic that they lose against Switzerland. I'm not a regular player when it comes to sports betting, but I was close to winning because I chose the option that the match will end in a draw at halftime with Switzerland winning + the same option in the second match between Germany and Denmark.

I'm glad to see teams like Switzerland and Austria playing good football, and I sincerely hoped that Slovakia would be able to hold out until the end and beat England, which would be a big surprise of this championship.

I believe it is rather just a matter of time before England meets her own waterloo if they don't improve the game a lot going forward, because despite going behind very early into the game, you'd expected a more aggressive and tempo dictating approach from England, but all through the entirety of 120 minutes, England only had 2 shots on target, I don't understand how that can be sustainable against teams like Germany, France or Spain, if they happen to meet along the way.

Of course, I am really depressed that we went out, it is certainly better to participate and be defeated than not to participate at all, without a doubt.  However, being eliminated in this round was really bad.  It is no coincidence that Donnarumma apologized for these poor performances.

They lost but I am impressed with Georgia and how they played in this EURO tournament.
They had attacking style, they scored in every match they played, and they beat Portugal.
Georgia manager Willy Sagnol showed how good coach can create amazing result and how important they are.

Interesting matches today, France vs Belgium and Portugal vs Slovenia.
Is this the time for Ronaldo to finally score  a goal?

This is actually the first Euro season that is becoming very difficult to predict the best candidate that would win the trophy, though almost all the countries seem to be very weak in performance compare to there other seasons however considering all there overall performances I think France has the best performance because if you watch there matches you will see the difference between them and every other countries.

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that Germany and Spain doesn't have a good performance but I'm only evaluating based on there performances and so far France is the only club I consider to have the most consistent performance among  others, however England is one of the country I'm seeing may not going to qualify for another round because with what I saw on there match against Slovakia I don't think they will stand a chance next round.
