⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers👉Group Stage

[Sithara007]

Well, one thing is for sure, not only Portugal but several teams must look for their replacement generation, for me one of them is the same son of CR7, which is something that is noticeable, since he asked him to hold on a little longer to see if I can play alongside him in the Portugal national team, it is something that they both bring, possibly they can make it a reality, as a fan, as a father, I would like to see that, I would like my son to follow in my footsteps and to be able to work with him too in the future.

This is something that perhaps every father would like to do, and fulfill, it would be a source of pride, and in football if it is possible and if the son meets expectations, why not?

I am bit confused here. Ronaldo's son was born in 2010 (I don't know any other details about him apart from his name: Cristiano Ronaldo Jr). By the time of 2024 Euro Cup, his son will be just 14 years old. How do you expect a 14-year old to play in the Portugal national team? Youngest ever player to represent Portugal at international level is José Gralha, who made his debut in 1921 at the age of 16 years. BTW, there are some viral videos in YouTube, showing Cristiano Jr scoring goals for his U-15 side.

Reunion the final UEFA Euro 2020 between Italy vs England and England as the host had beaten by Italy, qualifier for UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany both national team have in the same group, actually is not matter trough Euro have adopted more than 24 countries participant, first and second standing finish automatically qualify to Euro 2024. No doubt with Ukraine I think England and Italy are favorite national team will lead this group as 1st and 2nd standing placed.
I don't see Russia national team are in the UEFA Euro 2024 group qualifier, seems still get suspend from UEFA can't participants after war conflict with Ukraine, little disappointed because Russia could be one strong national team in  UEFA Euro 2024.

Well the truth is that this is like more than what has been discussed in many threads, for me things should not be seen that way, on the contrary, it should be seen as a way to be able to give an opportunity to a nation that the players do not have It's the fault that its president has these intentions, for me sport is a class apart, there is no political classification or something that deserves it, for me things go away is for the sports side and I know that many users and fans see it that way, I will never defend war, because I don't like that, but in a war everything gets cloudy and that's the bad thing too, I think wars should never exist.

Yes, it is curious, I read that in one of the stories that I saw in a document that appears on HBO +, and the son of CR7 appeared, although lately I have seen more information about it and apparently CR7 wants to retire from football at the At the age of 40, I think that if he does it at that age, he will be able to fulfill his son, because he could already be a youth player who, if he is very good, could be considered to play with the professional, well at least I have seen that in some leagues. Maybe with the influence of CR7 they will make it a reality, you never know, I think that at 16 they could make a possible exception, I don't know how things are in the laws of football, but I see it as possible.

belgium (group f) will have to play the qualifiers without its captain Eden Hazard. as the player announced today, he has resigned from the national team with immediate effect. EH played 126 international matches for belgium since 2008

Since the German team has been eliminated from the Nations League, their schedule for the next two years will consist of friendly matches only. They have 10 planned for 2023, but we'll have to wait for more info on the opponents. Their next competitive match will be the Euro 24 opener on June 14th, 2024 in Munich.

Being automatically qualified for Euro 24 & having been eliminated from Nations League, #GER only have friendlies until summer 2024. 10 games are planned in 2023, opponents to be announced later. The next competitive game will be Euro 24 opener on 14 June 2024 in Munich [@kicker]

Not too much to worry about until then, just some friendly matches to look forward to. Honestly dunno if thats good or bad after the horrible performance in Qatar. 

[Jody.Drummer]

Of course, the UEFA Euro is one of the most anticipated competitions, we will see European countries face each other to fight for the title. Italy and England will be the much-anticipated matches. They met in the top match at UEFA Euro 2020 and now they will meet in the qualifying round. This could be a revenge mission for the England national team to beat Italy after they had to lose in the final via a penalty shootout which at that time ended with a score of 3-2 for Italy's victory. In 2023 we will see European countries competing in this qualifying round.

We are missing the Italy team in the current FIFA world cup in Qatar. However, i would be eager to watch them play at the Euro next year.

Italy is in group C with strong teams like Ukraine and England. It would be too early to predict who will top this group but i am hoping to see Italy strong and good performance in the upcoming UEFA Euro 2024.

However, Italy must first fix its team which currently does not have much potential to compete in the European championships, even if judging by these World Cup matches, Spain and Germany are not doing so well either. I would say that if there are no major changes, France remains the strongest national team in Europe for the next championship

German news channel Sky Sport reports that the German DFB is setting up a task force of German football giants to give the team the best possible advice and prepare them for the Euro 2024.

Official: The DFB has set up a task force with Oliver Kahn, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Matthias Sammer, Rudi Völler and Oliver Mintzlaff whose task will be to advise, support and assist Hansi Flick, the national team and the DFB ahead of Euro 2024 and beyond.

Finally it looks like the DFB is taking steps to make sure the German team is back on track for the Euro 2024. I really hope this will help to turn things around and gives me something to cheer about in 2024.

Another elimination in the group stage would be horrific. Please no.

After the loss to Morocco during the quarter-finals, I was sad to see Ronaldo sobbing and getting emotional. By the time of the next world cup, he will be 41 years old. I don't know whether he will continue playing till then. But if he decides against retiring immediately, a lot of the fans will be overjoyed. No matter what happened during this world cup (it was the stupidity from Fernando Santos that cost Portugal the QF match), my opinion is that Ronaldo should give another try in 2026. He is still one of the top football players in the world.

Crisis meeting with the German national team. After the embarrassing elimination in the group phase at the World Cup in Qatar, the "DFB task force" met for the first time today to discuss measures to get the German national team back on track for the EURO 2024.

The new DFB task force met for the first time today. Led by DFB president Neuendorf & vice president Watzke, Oliver Kahn, Oliver Mintzlaff, K-H Rummenigge, Matthias Sammer & Rudi Völler discussed the development & prospects of the national team for around 2.5 hours [dfb]

I don't know if the measures are making a difference, but at least something is happening. IMHO, this is bitterly necessary after the humiliating performances at the last three major tournaments. If you want to have a decent team in 2024 you have to act now.

[Pulsar77]

It would be a huge disaster for Germany indeed if they are eliminated early in EURO 2024 as well. I'm having issues with understanding how they can be this much bad now. They were like the nightmare of the rest of the world in EUROs or World Cups in the past. I still can't forget about the 7-1 win over Brazil in 2014 World Cup.    It was like the brightest period of the Germany national team. But some time later, some things started to change. We have seen some new players in the squad first of course. But I was still not expecting the team spirit to disperse.

However it really happened. They started to maintain a really inconsistent form no matter what tournament they participate in. This crisis meeting hopefully will be some help for them to pull themselves together. Germany are the host country so they don't have to deal with any qualifier stage. But the pressure will be on them surely as the tournament is in their home.

Surely they realize what they have to fix to be able to compete with other European countries. When they failed to qualify for the Qatar 2022 World Cup Finals, it was a very hard blow to come to them. They must have done an evaluation by now even when they failed the qualifying round back then. There is still time for Italy to fix everything and be able to compete again in this UEFA Euro. I hope they can take advantage of the opportunities that exist to have friendly matches with other countries, which of course with balanced opponents or countries that are considered better than them, such as the country that performed well at the Qatar World Cup.

Italy is placed in a relatively tough group (Group C) along with England and Ukraine. And then there is North Macedonia, who are quite famous for making upsets. The only weak team in the group is Malta, and even they are capable of troubling the big teams. On the other hand look at Group E. There are hardly any strong teams there, with Poland and Czech Republic almost assured of qualification to the main event.  Anyway we still have more than three months to go towards the start of the qualifying tournament.

[Pierre 2]

As a Turk I think we had lucky draw with this. Croatia is obviously the best team in our group and probably gonna be a leader. But other teams I think can be beaten by Turkish squad when we are in good condition. Armenia and Latvia have no chance in my opinion. Wales only may be able to compete with Türkiye for second place. But I think Wales plays better football than Türkiye in later, they are still sort of lacking talented players. Türkiye has better players. Looking forward to see what's gonna happen.

Tbh, I wonder about that too. How can it be that a team that played for the title for years before has experienced such a downfall?

Of course, important players like Bastian Schweinsteiger or Philip Lahm have left the team. But the current squad is actually much better in terms of quality than it was back then. Just think of Joshua Kimmich, Leroy Sane, Serge Gnarby or Kai Havertz. All world-class players who can win against any team.

Of course, the team lacks a real striker like Miroslav Klose was. However, a team like Germany has to find a solution here, IMHO. The second problem is the German defence. Although they have a leader in Antonio Rüdiger, the rest of the defence is rather weak by international standards.

Well, let's see if the team can improve on these positions by 2024. Otherwise, I guess out in the group stage again. 

[cygan]

not only germany is trying to develop/form a strong team again but also the spainians are in my opinion in rebuilding.
after the national coach Luis Enrique has announced his end after the elimination, today also the captain Sergio Busquets announced no longer for the spanish national team to run up.

[safari88]

Almost forgot that this is coming again in a few months. A striking group is that of the Netherlands and France. But the Netherlands will get its old coach Koeman back. And hopefully they will play better football than at the World Cup. France may not take it all that seriously, but we can only say that on Monday when it is known whether they have become world champions or not. A European Championship always lives much less than a World Cup. And 2024 that is also quite far away, of course. and in between we also get the Nations League finals in the summer.

[yayayo]

We will not start these competitions again until March. France - The Netherlands is already a huge squatter in this group. By far the strongest match in the 1st round of qualifying. It is remarkable that these countries are together. France will want revenge on Argentina's lost final and has also disappointed against Switzerland at the European Championship in 2020 in which Mbappe missed the penalty. Italy - England will also be played on March 23. A repeat of the final of the European Championship 2020, in which Italy finally took off with the title.

ya.ya.yo!

I think 2 teams will advance from the groups, so defeats for these teams won't really be a problem. They certainly won't lose sleep over that. Van Gaal was a temporary national coach for the World Cup in Qatar, and has now stopped. The focus of most countries will also be on the European Championship, but we will first have the final round of the Nations League in the summer. Not that it has that much status, but if you do participate you want to win. There is a lot of uncertainty about Belgium. A number of players are considering quitting their international career, and the coach has also submitted his resignation after the World Cup.

He is still one of the top football players in the world.

No doubt Ronaldo is an exceptional footballer in this era, and he would still love to play even at the age of 45. But the problem is his inability to adapt to the changes he will encounter. (1) no coach will want to make a footballer in his late thirties the first choice of his team, especially when the performance is below target.  2) a player at that age is limited to a particular hour of performance. All these are factors Ronaldo is currently finding difficult to adapt to. He still wants to be seen as the team's first choice, and this strive will continue to torture him till when he chooses to resign. I presume we have witnessed the end of Ronaldo's era, is high time he resigns with dignity.
