⚽UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Winner: ITALY!

[joker_josue]

Congratulations to England on their victory.

Denmark played very well, and it made life very difficult for England. But physically the English team is doing very well and withstood the extra time, ending up winning the game.

Denmark, despite the defeat, is to be congratulated. He had an excellent Euro 2020, and was clearly the best offsider team in the competition. Congratulations to them too.

[Woodie]

If you watched the game, you agree with me that England were awarded an unfair penalty because had the referee reviewed that which was assumed to be a penalty,  Raheem would have been booked for simulation and not getting a penalty otherwise we cant correct this...

Anyway is it coming home or it's going to Rome.

As much as I would loved Denmark to reach final, I must admitthat England were better. Epecially on extra time - Denmark were pretty much dead. Though, for me penalty was at least questionable or cheap. And Schmeichel was amazing today.
Denmark - what crazy championship for them. Remeber how everything started. After that not many expected that Denmark can achieve so much. The won many hearts during tournament.
England - it's unbeleavable that they reached final just for the 1st time in history. It's coming home! Final is going to be so interesting.

Denmark has an interesting history in EURO
I admit they impressed everyone here but their journey comes to an end and not only congratulations for England for reaching the final for the first time but also congrats to Southgate
🔥Italy🔥 - 🔥England🔥, rumors says Wembley gonna have the highest temperature on earth this Sunday

[aoluain]

Denmark were on the back foot from the half time break, England were on the front foot.
I didnt have a bet on this game but that penalty shouldnt have been allowed, but yea
bad decisions like that are part of the game even with VAR.

Yes, electric!

England are lucky to have a home semi and home final, makes a difference.

[CryptocurencyKing]

I'm not a big fan of wins by penalty shootouts in regular times like this. I really feel both teams could have played it all out. Giving a penalty at this point though inevitable almost feels like, writing or in this case, whistling the Denmark team off because, there is literally no way they could attempt a come back and succeed at this point after such a tight game play.
Both teams did good, they played both offensive and defensively. It was an entertaining game for sure but, England had the luck for tonight. Not just getting a penalty but having to score off the rebounce from the goalkeeper.
Congrats to them for this victory and would be looking out for Italy Vs England in the finals.

Interesting that both matches in semi-final ended up with exact same result 1-1 after regular time and big final is Italy vs England in 3 days.
Big advantage for England is that final against Italy will be played at Wembley Stadium in London, and this hill be historic chance for them to finally win a title.
Crowd helped England a lot so far and they will be big advantage for them in final at Wembley, but anything can happen in final match.

[coinlocket$]

Ok, we have the 2 contenders now.
Italy versus England.

I can see Italy stronger than England, but they will play basically at home with the full stadium (even if they have over 30k cases /day of Covid, NO COMMENT) and it will help them a lot.

Without the game at home I was pretty sure about Italy winning, but now... I think is a 50-50

[decodx]

What is VAR for, after all? There was no penalty. Why they didn't ask the ref to take a look? When it comes to moments like that, the referee needs to be completely convinced.

Finally it was England who went to the final whereas previously I wished Denmark but ok Denmark has played well and it turns out that England deserved it
If the final is played at Wembley, then England is closer to winning with a note that England must win in regular time, if it has to be settled on penalties I think Italy will win.

[tomahawk9]

it's actually quite fitting that they main host of the Euro 2020 (5 out of 6 games playing at home) get that penalty call..."home advantage"   

jokes aside, England deserved the win. Denmark were very poor but mainly cos their opponent dominated the entire match.

betting markets for the Final went live on Pinnacle, one of the sharpest bookies:

interesting

bad decisions like that are part of the game even with VAR.

? ? ? ? ?
the main reason VAR was created was to avoid bad decisions

Yeah that sucked the way Denmark lost even after the save if he could have just covered it or deflected it the other way.  Oh well I think the better game will be England-italy anyway.  I like Italy to win it all.  They just look too good to lose right now.

[ILuckyGuyI]

It was definitely a great night! We saw a great competition between England and Denmark. And Denmark didn't surprise me really. They showed how much they wanted to promote to the final. It was really shocking to see that they were the team scoring the first goal of the game. But England weren't late to answer. We didn't see any goal in the remaining minutes. In the extra time, I was expecting to see penalty shoot-outs. But Sterling got a penalty. Harry Kane missed the penalty but managed to score after the GK saved the penalty. And England managed to beat their opponent 2-1 at the end.

Now we have a big final game between England and Italy and in Wembley again.

[coinlocket$]

I haven't watched the game and I have a question reading twitter.

Is true that the penalty given to England was an irregular one? They have 2 balls on the pitch according to twitter.

The irregularity of the penalty doesn't matter,what matters most now is that England have booked their place for the final.From the beginning,I predicted England to win this year's Euro tournament,and my prediction is seeing the light of the day.England was superb in their performance today as they booked their place to the final.

Interesting that both matches in semi-final ended up with exact same result 1-1 after regular time

The same result 1-1, it was just a coincidence. However, it is a semi-final stage, all teams should have extra spirits to reach the final and they must play all out. So, it is not so surprising if both matches were very tight matches. Then, the final matches ideally will be a tighter match.   

Now we have a big final game between England and Italy and in Wembley again.

It is as expected and an ideal final match.
From 4 teams in the final stage, England and Italy are two teams that deserve to reach the final. They can perform well and consistently during UEFA EURO 2020. Based on this matter, they are the best teams to play in the final match.

[joker_josue]

It cannot be said that the penalty was badly signaled.
It was from those bids that both situations were valid, signaling or not penalty.

There really is a mindset about the England player within the area. Now it's gone with the necessary intensity for penalty, it can be discussed. But, in this case it will depend on the interpretation that the referee had. But, no one can be shocked to have been given a penalty.

Except for the fans from Denmark. 

Now Denmark played a good game, that's true.

[arallmuus]

Lol and the final game will be in Wembley stadium as well so I think the fact that bookies seems to favour England abit comes from this 'home advantage' eh  

jokes aside, England deserved the win. Denmark were very poor but mainly cos their opponent dominated the entire match.

Well cant expect much from Denmark, they have come this far and even if it goes down to penalty shootout I still think that England will win this. Besides that, Italy vs England is a very fitting Final game Euro. I'd love underdog stories to win and such but for a 4 year event like Euro, I prefer to have that two top team playing on the Final.

It makes the game a whole lot more interesting to watch rather than a least favourites team against a favourites team

[Harkorede]

Denmark was really good throughout the 90 but their players can barely stand. With England being able to bring on Rashford, Sancho, Henderson, Foden etc, it's pretty obvious they should be winning this before the penalties.

I'm taking both England to win and England to win with a handicap. The odds look great, 30 minutes is a lot of time.

I wanted to do the same after first extra time but England just managed to score from a penalty. Did not look like much of a contact to me but VAR checked and confirmed it. Scmeichel even managed to save the penalty but he was unlucky with deflection.

Well played.

Congrats! That was well played,

That incident was just still one of the inconsistencies we've with witnessed with VAR, one night the penalty is been given, the next it gets waved off, that doesn't seem like the right to me btw.

Denmark really did well and should bow out of the tournament with their head high, they fought till the very end.

The final should be an intense one, both teams have some points to prove, but is it indeed coming Home or going Rome

[MAAManda]

I fell asleep and missed the England Vs Denmark match, I was quite surprised by the result, because Denmark was able to hold on to a draw until the second half ended, unfortunately they were not able to survive in Extra Time.

Congratulations to England who have entered the final and will face Italy in the next 4 days, who do you think will be the champion? Italy or England

[blue Snow]

Now Denmark played a good game, that's true.

Yes, I think like that, Denmark worthy of the final but they aren't lucky. England gets love from the goddess of luck. they give their own goal and bouncing the ball from failed penalty. Schmeichel has blocked shoot ball several times, he got his father's soul, I think he will be quick to be the same as his father (Peter Schmeichel - Manchester United).
