i think the third match of groupe today between england and ecosse is difficult , and bet england win or draw , is the right decision

When you put so much hope in the English team to win what happens is that they get beat! But they have a better team and should deliver a win here, correct score i see a 2 nil win but a draw is very possible if they aren't careful.

today everyone bet croatia to win against republic cheque but the match ended with draw there is betting on corners why not england to have up 7 corner today and the odd 2.38 for sure will be high compared with odd of winner 1x2 market match

Football is hard these days and you can't always win,credit to Croatia for trying to redeem themselves, better luck next time boys.

Croatia - Czech Republic. Croatia looked disappointing, especially in 1st half. Penalty was quite questionable - I think if there wouldn't be blood, penalty wouldn't be given. And that moment Schick with bloody nose scored it, looked quite epic. Draw isn't worst result for Croatia, now I think they just have to beat Scotland in last round.
England - Scotland, I don't have big expectations about this game. England is going to win confident, I have no doubts about it.

I followed parts of the first and second half of Croatia - Czech game and I wasn't impressed at all. Both teams were playing close football, no real threats. What we expected from Croatia has nothing to do with reality..
Until now, England 0-0 Scotland, control the ball and do nothing, at least in this first half.

[KTChampions]

Quite a tough struggle is going on and Scotland is defending quite well, but it seems to me that in the second half England should, through individual actions, achieve at least a minimal advantage in the score. I hope this will lead to an aggravation of the struggle and we will see a few more goals.

I don't like to make generalizations. However, I think we watched a classic Czech game in the first half. The Czech team in general has been playing an unsightly game for years due to solid defense. Years ago, Greece managed to reach the final in this way.

Scotland is playing very well and have already had some good chances. Maybe we will see a surprise tonight. I am very disappointed with the English team. They have to do better than that if they want to win the game. About 30 minutes (+ extra time) to go. Let's see!


According to RMC Sport this is the expected line-up of the French national team against Hungary.

Against Hungary, Didier Deschamps is expected to line up with the same 11 that started against Germany. Pavard and Hernández to start. Tolisso and Coman on the bench [@lequipe]

The match between France and Hungary should clearly go in favour of the French. After the extremely strong match against Germany, France is clearly the favourite to win the group, if not the whole tournament.

Nice to see that the Czech Republic played a draw against Croatia !
Cant watch the England match about Scotland but what i read it looks like England has not an easy game and there is already 62 Minutes played.
Hope that England will make it , and i looking excited forward to the German game tomorrow against Portugal .

I agree that Scotland is playing well, but in fact both teams had only one really serious moment in order to seize the lead in the match. I think that this state of affairs (and the current score) suits Scotland quite well and they will aggravate the game only if they start losing.

Sweden successfully beat Slovakia, 1-0, in the continuation of Group E, with this victory, Sweden automatically leads the standings in Group E with four points, in tonight match both teams really showed their best performances, because both teams were right really want to get 3 full points to keep their chances of qualifying for the round of 16, moreover Sweden in their previous match they played a goalless draw against Spain and Now, Sweden only need to get points against Poland in the last match to seal the move through to the last 16, and slovakia who lost tonight, forced to undergo a life and death match against spain in the third match of Euro 2020.

Sweden won a tough match today vs Slovakia. The penalty goal led them to lead the group E standing for a while with 4 point while waiting for the result of Spain vs Poland tomorrow. I think Sweden will qualify for the next round if even in the third match they only draw. Apart from that, I'm pretty sure Spain will also qualify for the round of 16 even though they have only collected 1 point vs Sweden in the first match.

For the next match today:
Croatia vs Czech        : 2-0
England vs Scotland   : 2-1

Sweden are currently in quite comfortable condition and of course in their last match, a draw was enough to lock up the last 16 position, but to be honest, I am really looking forward to the decisive match between slovakia vs spain to qualify for the next round, I think slovakia will be a hurdle for spain this year to qualify for 16 euros.
The match between Croatia and the Czech Republic was quite exciting and ended in a 1-1 draw, with this draw, of course, the Czech Republic position is still safe as the current leader of Group D with 4 points and Croatia must stay in third place with 1 point.

The match between England and Scotland has now entered the second half, and until now the two teams were still playing 0-0, although England had more control over the ball but the many opportunities wasted made this match quite boring.

Croatia performs rather poorly in this tournament. Hopefully they can beat Scotland and go to the playoffs. And in the future, show a worthy game. England and the Czech Republic will decide the fate of the first place among themselves. Quite unexpectedly, to see the Czech Republic as the leader, I hope they will be able to create a sensation during the tournament.

Scotland are playing really much better than they did against Czech Republic, and If England doesn't step up their game fast enough, they might secure a draw here

Scotland have also seen a couple of chances as well... There's still much time for this to go either way

Czechia was closer side to the win, they started fairly good, Croatia couldn't do anything in first half. In second half that early goal boosted morale of Croatian players but they couldn't find winning goal. We can say draw was a fair result for this game.
For England game it looks like another draw is coming. There are England attacks but we haven't seen a %100 chance yet. I don't know what can they do in last ten minutes though, that's the football.

England still look like they are creating chances and it's in the last 10 minutes anything  can happen, anybody that loses their concentration here will get punished.

Foden and Kane subbed out for Grealish and Rashford , change the game boys just need a goal for a win!

I do not think Scotland will score in this match and if you think so then the odds are really huge above 11 and i am happy even if the match goes for a draw but i am not expecting England to score a goal in this match. A few minutes left for the match and i am not expecting the Portugal magic where they scored 3 goals after the 80th minute from England or Scotland.

For sure or lets say i guess that also that the Czech Republic and England will make the first and the second place in this Group.
There will be also another hopefully great match between Spain and Poland , if they making a surprise win against them it dont looks good for Spain.

I don't know what can they do in last ten minutes though, that's the football.

In 10 Minutes can happen so much in football

[NotATether]

What a very boring and uneventful England vs Scotland fixture this has been. The goalless draw really ruined a lot of people's bets.

[bullrun2024bro]

Wow 0:0.  

I guess, only a few people expected this result. At least I didn't. The Scots played very well. But I have to admit that I expected much more from the English national team. If they want to go far in the tournament, they urgently need to improve in the next games. At this stage, the group is completely open and all teams have the possibility to enter the round of 16 - even if England probably have the best chance to win the group. On the last matchday, it's all up to Scotland and Croatia, whereas the Czechs should at least have secured third place in group D.

I cannot say that the game was very boring, but unfortunately it was not productive and we did not see any goals. Each team shot on target of the opponent's goal only once. If it is normal for Scotland in the match with the favorite, then England will receive a fair amount of criticism after this match.

[LTU_btc]

Game ended 0:0, but it wasn't boring. Before game I said that Scotland have no chances today, but I was completely wrong. They were much better than I expected. While England were nothing special tonight. For Scotland, draw isn't perfect score, but it keeps their hopes to go furthervalive. While for England, draw isn't disaster. Maybe it only hits their ambitions after mocking Scottish football for decades.

[Igebotz]

It coming home

What a very boring and uneventful England vs Scotland fixture this has been. The goalless draw really ruined a lot of people's bets.

Hmm the match wasn't a boring one in my own opinion I think this England team is full of individual players, there Is no team work, they are all fighting for individual trophies and awards, everyone want to be on the front page of the papers, Southgate is not a tactical coach, he is so predictable, you removed your best striker while looking for a goal, Rashford was meant to replace Sterling who was no where to be found, no single chance created.

What a very boring and uneventful England vs Scotland fixture this has been.

This is most interesting goalless draw match i have seen in a while, England should be thankful they could have lost this game and the one point, because they lacked ideas in this game, they have to do better. Scotland on the other hand, a very fantastic display from Billy Gilmour, and that man of the match win for him is a wonderful way to start his first match for his country.
