England can't beat Germany if they play the way they do, but Germany also can't even defend against the worst team in their group so I have no idea how that game plays, but please, don't go for 0-0 as that would be the most boring outcome for us all. England will have Wembley advantage but is it actually a disadvantage with all that pressure?

Even though England played at home but still I don't believe that was the trigger to win and even, these two teams played at home during the group stage but still the result was bad. But if I had to choose who would win, I personally would still choose Germany even though basically I don't like them because they don't look very good in the group stage and tend to look boring.

And on paper, it is actually difficult to predict the England vs Germany duel later because both teams have their respective strengths and weaknesses.
Both have the opportunity to cover these shortcomings because they have to take a long break before the match on June 29, and in terms of the game the two teams are also not much different and are not teams that rely on high skill or technique.
there is nothing exciting about their game and England are having a hard time scoring goals, and Germany so far, there is not a single player who really stands out in their team.

It is not a disadvantage because all of this players are used to playing under pressure in full stadiums. So this will be a boost for England. Germany played awful against Hungary and o most got knocked out it will be intresting too see what will happen in that match

The match will take place in Wembley, the home of football. England will be having a huge home advantage. Germany is the same team which lost pathetically to North Macedonia a few months back (although recently they won against Portugal by a big margin). I see zero chance for a win by Germany. No matter how attractive the odds are, I am not going to make a bet in their favor. And at least for me, the odds are not even attractive. Most of the sportsbooks have Germany between +190 and +200.

Never expect much from England as you might be disappointed by it. England vs Germany can be called as one of the good matches in the last 16, but England is not as good as expected. So far they won 2 matches and 1 draw in the group stage, but they only managed to score 2 goals. I think Germany can be seeded vs England in the round of 16.

England will have Wembley advantage but is it actually a disadvantage with all that pressure?

Yes, there is a lot of pressure. England have a bad record against Germany, and have lost to them in important matches a few times. There is a big psychological barrier for England to overcome here. The players will be worried, I think... whereas Germany are more used to winning, and don't have any pressure of home advantage, either, plus expectations for their team are lower than usual.

Its an important game for england true they are not in the best form but i think its their chance to advance to the next round germany had many difficulties and they are not in a strong form they barely got a draw against hungary plus england did not conceid goals in the first round which is a good thing they played with some good teams like croatia.

If Germany plays like against France and Hungary then they won't have a chance against England. If they play like against Portugal they have a good chance to proceed to the next round. Germany shows two completely different faces as already in the qualification and in the preparation matches. In some matches they play unbeatable football and in others you have to fear that they will go down. I only remember the game a few months ago against Spain, when they lost 0-6. The same Spanish team which does not play very well in this tournament yet.
So I think the match against England is completely open for both sides. But I would favor England, also because of the home advantage.

[Zilon]

Despite the Wembley advantage of England playing agoanst Germany isn't going to be as easily predicted as it might seem. England is top of the table in group D waiting t qualify for the last 16 set but for me the match might go against England because Germany are is coming in with a full squad and it's not going to be a walk over .

Despite all this, Hungary should lose against Germany but I am personally going to bet on a very juicy draw.

Love profits like those made possible by such bets! It is always nice to get a couple hundred thousand satoshis this way. Teams have a few days to rest before the round of 16. I am glad Denmark was able to qualify after all that happened.
Anyway, now the fun begins, they will all be interesting matches to study well to earn some more satoshi.

Ronaldo with 5 goals, but I kind of dislike the fact that he scores so many penalties all the time. It feels like it distorts the true top scorer list. He has always been scoring a good chunk of his goals per season with penalties. I am not sure but I think there was a time when penalties didn't count to the overall total, am I wrong?

It is indeed a fact that some goals are scored on penalties but it can't be denied it's still a goal every country can do the same so there's nothing strange there it's normal unless only Portugal can get a goal from a penalty that might be weird.

[3meek]

Hungary performed a magic! Because of them I lost several multi bets!)) But I still admire their game and their team!

I didn't like Portugal's game, if it wasn't for 2 penalties, there's no way they could have won this match!

Penalties requires composure, powerful shooting and ability to deception. Last time I checked Penalty has been part of the game. Manchester United lost the Europa league tittle on penalties shoot-outs.
Let me bring to your awareness that Meesi in total has missed four of the 19 penalties he's taken in the blue and white, In total he's taken 107 penalties, scoring 82 and missing 25. A success rate of just 76.6%, well below Ronaldo.

[Yogee]

They don't call him "Penaldo" for nothing. People criticize him for scoring a lot from the spot as if it's that easy. He misses, they mock him. He scores, they still mock him. hehe

I just saw the draw for the round of 16.
It looks like England was too lucky to face Germany this early despite topping their group.
Italy, Spain, France had the better draws.

[cygan]

now the group stage is over and until the first 1/8-final games there are now 2 days of regeneration break.
some time to share the new records that have been achieved in the last 1.5 weeks with you here:

• polish national player Kacper Kozlwoski is, at 17 years and 246 days, the youngest player ever to play in a euro tournament
• Cristiano Ronaldo is now with his 14 euro goals, the one who has scored the most goals in the euros
• CR7 is also the player who has scored the most national goals for his country - 109
• Patrick Schick's 2-0 against scotland was the goal scored from the greatest distance (~45 meters)
• 2 own goals from one team in one game, never happened before at the euro (this happened now at the games germany vs. portugal and slovakia vs. spain)
• never have so many own goals been scored in a euro as now (currently
• italy is the first team ever to win its 3 group games without conceding a goal
• denmark is the first team which lose its first two games and still reach the 1/8 finals

[barota]

no match today , the same for tomorrow too , everyone who follow euro 2021 feel good ,  for those who love football dont forget , there is some good match of copa america too , yesterday brazil scored at 100 minute and won  , this very funny 10 minute extra time , tomorrow there are no matches either for copa america too , i think next tour for euro 2021 will have nice matches , the first match of next tour will be 26 june between italy vs scotland i think the match is good too

Yes, there is a lot of pressure. England have a bad record against Germany, and have lost to them in important matches a few times. There is a big psychological barrier for England to overcome here. The players will be worried, I think... whereas Germany are more used to winning, and don't have any pressure of home advantage, either, plus expectations for their team are lower than usual.

There is big trouble for England, as it stands they will meet Germany in the round 16. England got the most talented players but what they offer is below many people expectations. England is just a lucky team, I don't see England surviving knock out stage. In this tournament England play most boring football whereas Germany a well packaged.

[Avirunes]

Critics huh? Well you will find for every player. Its just how it is. But they are the ones whom players live to shut up no? They will rise up once again when Ronaldo perform poorly. It goes on and on.. it's a part of football now.

I just saw the draw for the round of 16.
It looks like England was too lucky to face Germany this early despite topping their group.
Italy, Spain, France had the better draws.

It will be a great match between England and Germany. As for others , don't take their fixtures easily as well. This teams have played well in group stage and have surprised some good teams.

But who will be eliminated? England and Germany have full strength in this EURO 2020 I believe this match will be tougher to watch.

But this Italy, Spain, France team is strong enough to qualify. I only saw in the previous game that they would always try to win, even though the other teams had not yet decided to give him the win.

Portugal and Belgium for me is quite balanced.
Will Ronaldo score from a penalty again?

[W Jr.]

The most interesting match in the round of 16 will be Germany vs England. Germany can pass the tour in this round. Of course, England also has this possibility. Considering the matches played in groups, I think Germany is luckier.

[Harkorede]

dammit! my bet was a total disaster. Only 1 corner in the game, even though there were 20+ total shots not gonna bet on corners again :-P

who do you guys think it's gonna advance to quarter-finals? my predictions in bold:

Belgium - Portugal
Italy - Austria
France - Switzerland
Croatia - Spain
Sweden - Ukraine
England - Germany
Netherlands - Czech Republic
Wales - Denmark

I don't think have any Objections to these selections, but I would watch out for Wales against Denmark, that'd be some cracker and the odds for Wales are really enticing and valuable imho.

It's baseless counting how many of his goals are penalties, it's his regardless he's not the penalty taker for the fun of it. Whatever he does he's dedicated and it always pays off eventually.  

England were only destined to be unlucky, it could have been Germany or Portugal, at the luckiest they could have gotten Hungary, but it's the toughest they get, I guess they'd get tested at some point of the tournament eventually, perhaps the earlier the better ?
