⚽UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Winner: ITALY!

[Strongkored]

For today, I guess I will go for the Italy vs Wales match. Even if Wales lose the match by a small margin and Switzerland win their match against Turkey, Wales will end up at no.2 position (because they have a better goal difference).

In this group, it seems that there will be no changes in the standings, which country will advance to the next and which country will be eliminated.
Contrast to group B, where the competition is still quite interesting to follow because there are two countries besides Belgium that still have a chance to advance for round 16.

The real bet today is about Italy's clean sheet. I think my fellow Italians will be able to make it and I expect that those guys who still have not played will do their best to make another good impression to Mancini. For him, then, it will be a real challenge to select the best ones.
So, Italy should also bring home the last 3 points of the round.
Sorry Welsh friends, but that is going to be like that.

I do not think this will be an easy win for italy wales are a good team too even if italy are unbeatable and they did not conceid a single goal in the last two games and if they win i think it will be with one goal difference i think i will go with a handicap  (+1.5) for wales.

Under is a good choice but if Wales scores a goal the situation could change too

The Italians will come strong, don't even expect them to sit back for wales.
Keeping Daniel James, Gareth Bale's Speed will do.
As well Marco Verratti will sure keep Ramsey behind bars.

The schedule is still quite complicated. This way you can become 3rd in a group, and then it is not yet certain who you will play against because that again has to do with the circumstances in the rounds later, you would not be allowed to play against someone from your own group before you reach the final would reach. The Netherlands became first, and could easily play against the number 3 from the group of France. Those are fine eighth finals - the Netherlands-Germany for example. Then you win the group, and you get such a draw.

the bet Italy's clean sheet is very risky , because if they score 3 goal then defence can give up , but italy will win the match for sure it is good bet the odd about 1.5 or italy or match nul is good bet too the odd small 1.15 or less in my opinion italy will end in the first place by 9 points , 3 match win in a row

Not only in group B, which still has tough competition, because in other groups it looks the same and even in group D, E and F look more interesting to look forward to. But regarding today's match and it's about group A, then I think it's also true that there will be no change in position there and only Turkey if they win then Turkey shifts Switzerland in 3rd position. But yes, regarding the Italy - Wales match I think the target is no longer to shifted positions but it looks like Wales have a goal to score against Italy and as such, Italy's clean sheet was broken by Wales, although I know it won't be easy.

Portugal - Germany has been the best match I've ever seen since the tournament started. I enjoyed watching every single minute of it. There were a completely different Germany this time. They were too far away from their poor performance against France. They totally destroyed Portugal 4-2 in this match. It was a well-deserved win for sure.

Right. Portugal defeated Hungary 3-0 with goals they found close to the last minutes. They could not play their own good game against Germany. Still, Cristiano Ronaldo has 1 goal and 1 assist statistics. Especially his assist was great. It was Ronaldo's own talent that turned the position into a goal. Most goals scored in this match in Euro 2020.

History crushed Portugal once more. Germany consistently defeat Portugal easily and can transform Ronaldo to a wounded and disappointed on that pitch. Portugal defense cost their game but Cristiano Ronaldo showed us an incredible presentation we have never seen. Could I say best match in the Euro so far?

Yes. Ronaldo was really great even though they lost to Germany. He put a really great effort into this game. The group is in a really interesting situation right now. Because every team have a chance for the first two places. I feel like France - Portugal will end in a draw and Germany will defeat Hungary in the last games.

The win for Germany was so vital, but now the group becomes exciting. As far as I know most of the groups' third finishers also advance to the final round right? Isn't it very likely that Germany would advance even if they tie against Hungary? With four points they should be among the few best third finishers who also are supposed to reach the next round. Anyway, if Germany can repeat what they did against Portugal, I don't think Hungary will be able to defend that for 90 minutes. But you never know as nobody expected France either to play 1 - 1 against Hungary.

Yeah, Hungary did a great thing against France by succeeding in getting one point. But I don't think that they can get even one point against Germany. Maybe they can hold Germany in the first half but not until the end.

It's gonna be a great game between France and Portugal
Believe me I'll sure go for the defending Champions.
Lets just wait and see how it plays finally.

France is the reigning world champion, and Portugal the reigning European champion, there is no better poster. They are just unlucky that they are in the same group with Germany. normally france wins this match, then france would win the group, germany 2nd and portugal third. and probably all through to the next round. would be a shame if one of those 3 already got eliminated.

It would really be a shame that one of those 3 teams will maybe be eliminated. Before yesterdays matches i would have never thought that there would even be a slight possibility that France might not advance after their very good performance against germany, but now it is very much possible that they are on the 3rd rank after the group stage. I think the chances of Portugal beating France are not that small and Germany is the clear favorite against Hungary especially because Hungary will not have the advantage of a fully sold out stadium in the next game because they have to face Germany in Munich.

Portugal qualification to the next round lies on this crucial make or mar match against France, I don't think they can easily be beaten by France who endured all through 90 minutes to secure a draw with Hungary, I think we have to wait till after the final whistle before deciding the two teams that will qualify in that group, of course we should not underrate Hungary against Germany match their draw against France might boost their morale and come out to play attacking football afterall they have nothing to lose if they eventually lost the match.

I am from Russia and I know what I'm talking about   The Russian team lost to Belgium 3-0 and beat Finland 1-0, this is an average result and in fact much more successful than Turkey, but taking into account many other factors, I still assess the Russian team as an extension of the country itself, which is corrupt from top to bottom.

And I am from Turkey and I believe I also know what I am talking about.

Russia is a pretty solid country imo. (at least on paper ) Russia made SputnikV which means there are scientists that are still happy to live in Russia and has large gas reserves (money) that can feed the population. Turkey has none of that. Scientists, students, basically everybody with a half brain left are fleeing the country. (I am one of those with no brains) The corruption here in Turkey is off the meters.

Maybe Turkey can score a goal against Switzerland today but I don't have high hopes.

[cryptofrka]

Italy is resting a lot of players (but giving Verratti a start), both them and Wales are guaranteed to go through with a draw. Odds on bookies go as high as 4.10 and it's something I simply have to take.

In another game advantage goes to Switzerland, Turkey has to be among the biggest disappointments so far. Both teams need a win, it will be interesting to see which one will play on the counterattacks.

Spain and Germany at the same tier? I think Germany should be in Tier A after today's performance.

I would put France and Italy - Belgium at same tier though. Italy and Belgium look better than France now after second games.

Group stage doesn't reflect reality but it gave us an overview of teams and their potentials. Spain has potential and good players but it isn't convincing at all. French failure doesn't mean anything for those who followed the game and Deschamps won't let this happen again imo. Germany was quite good, way better than first game, but I still want to have a better idea about their stability and consistency.

Wales will remain second even if it lose the game unless Switzerland wins big and Italy trash them which I doubt to be the case regarding starting eleven in the Italian side.

Today I'm betting on the victory of the Swiss team against Turkey. Switzerland needs a victory to keep its chances for advance. They can certainly achieve it, because after two matches played, the Turks look like one of the weakest teams at the championship. In the second match I bet on a draw. This result will ensure the promotion of both teams. The Italians, who will not play in the strongest squad today, will also be pleased with the draw, as it will give them the first place in the group and theoretically weaker rival in the next phase of the championship.

Italy still has plenty of opportunities to compete with Wales even though their line-up doesn't include Immobile as the main player but I'm sure this can be overcome with a win or at least the expected draw.
Wales will continue to try to attack and attack it, this will not be wasted when there is a counter-attack. Bale and his friends certainly have a strong determination to win and if they lose to Italy, Wales is still a little worried, because for me Switzerland vs Turkey will still win and the possibility of Switzerland can bring 3 points to match Wales if they lose to Italy.

Italy is certain to qualify for the round of 16 because after two 3-0 wins over Turkey and Switzerland, and Wales can confirm the status of group runners-up with a draw against Italy.

and Gareth Bale and friends will not be satisfied and will definitely continue to attack Italy to win the ongoing match.
However, Wales' move will not be easy because Italy's position is stronger because they won from Switzerland and Turkey without conceding.

[coinlocket$]

Italy today, since they are already in the final stage, did a massive turnover to give more rest days to main players as result the game is not overwhelming like the other games.

Anyway, the players who are playing now are not so weak and they should play in the same way.

Switzerland 2 - Turkey 0

LoL, We are again playing like shit. At least score a goal in the tournament you fuckers is this too much to ask?

*Shaqiri missed the 3rd goal of his team as I was typing this. Lmao, what a disgrace.

Even if Wales lose today's match against Italy, they can still end up at no.2. But then, it will depend on the Switzerland vs Turkey match. If Switzerland wins by a heavy margin, then they will end up at the no.2 position with 4 points. And there is a chance for that, because after 25 minutes, Switzerland is leading by 1-0 against Turkey. So it will be good for Wales to have a draw against Italy. A win would be even better, but considering the current form of Italy, I have to admit that the chances are near zero.

Turkey have been the worst team in this tournament so far. They are no different in this game also. What a shame that they still don't care about anything! Mert Muldur is trying his best as his teammates are just the worst. This will be an easy win for Switzerland.
