⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers➡Group Stage➡1/8➡QF➡HF➡FINAL

[Woodie]

Football can be something else sometimes, how do you play a game with most of the possession and still not find yourselves in a winning position... totally mind blowing!
Portugal looked solid from the start of the game and I never saw Czech Republic getting a goal today but to get the first goal notification of this game and it's Provod of Czech on  the scoresheet just made me think if favourites are failing to win with all stats in their favour then this could be the year of the Underdog...maybe Romania🇷🇴  to win it anybody

Portugal have a lot of great players in their squad - this definitely supports their plans to win the title. But whatever it is - they are still very difficult to win games and this is not what was expected before the game started. Teams like the Czech are hard to beat because they focus on defense - but in the end Portugal won dramatically.

The Portuguese players performed well in the match - but they found it very difficult to find much space to score. Several times I saw Ronaldo almost score a goal - but he seemed unlucky. I don't know if Portugal can win against a better team than the Czechs - but if they can improve their attacking effectiveness, things might be easy.

If you mean the Portuguese team getting to win this Euro, I’ll highly doubt that. They are a good team, one of the favorites but, I don’t see them coming close to winning this season’s Euros. They almost got beat today by Czechia. That own goal from Robin Hranac was crucial to them taking the lead in this game and even better still, it came early in the second half about the 69th minute. With 20minutes on the clock and adrenaline pumping for a come back, it was game on. Though Jota did manage to net a goal, the VAR was there to cancel before F. Conceicao gave them the win in the plus minutes.

The top players we would have expected more from didn’t do very much today with the scoring or assists but, his influence is felt.

What a game of football it is for those who are CR7 fans and a fan of football a good match with last-minute goals always adds a thriller to the game and makes it more interesting till the final whistle blows. Portugal will be a favorite but not that much to win the euro cup this time.

With the quality and depth of its squad, Portugal is one of the favorites to win Euro 2024 and is facing the Czech Republic in its first match tonight. The first half ended 0-0, but Portugal completely dominated the match. They created numerous chances and maintained constant pressure on the attack. However, credit must be given to the Czech team; they have put up a strong fight and look solid defensively.

The game is currently one a piece and this Portuguese team is simply on another level although bad luck seem to be on their door step because with the game and attempts they have gotten in this match I feel they should have been two goals ahead by now but for some reason the Czech republic are holding on strong and also looking for that magical break that can shock the Portuguese team.

This is a very exciting and tense match. Portugal, which dominated the game, seemed quite difficult to break down Czechia's defense because the Czechia tend to play defensive football and they really put tight pressure on every Portugal player who holds the ball. It was very clear that Portugal was really chasing a win, where they looked very aggressive in the final minutes of the match, and all those efforts paid off in the 93rd minute when Francisco Conceicao managed to score the winning goal for Portugal.

Portugal definitely had a difficult game tonight despite having star players on their side. Portugal where initially losing 1-0, before they came from behind to equalise the game and they later won. Czech played defensively because of the pressure from Portugal but the pressure didn't come as too much of a threat as Czech where able to still find ways to return the energy back to the defence line of Portugal. it was a lucky win for Portugal as far as concerned. Though so far with the competition, the underdogs haven't given too much of a room for the big guys to overshadow them. Ronaldo didn't get too much of opportunities to score except for this last one that he wasn't able to head the ball and conceicao was able to score as a result of rebounce.

[CLS63]

I wasn't expecting us to be the leader in Group F after the first matches. It was thanks to Portugal's having quite much issues with breaking Czechia defense.    I really liked our offense against Georgia but can't say the same when it comes to defense. We gave big spaces to our opponent. If they were a more capable team we wouldn't be able to win this match. We need to improve our defense until the Portugal match otherwise it is very difficult for us to get a point.

Portugal achieved victory with great difficulty, they had many opportunities but it looked quite difficult to penetrate the Czechia defense. Several times they tried attacks from all directions until finally in the final 90+2 minutes they managed to save Portugal from a draw. Overall the Czechia could not do anything other than defend against Portugal attacks. In group F, Turkey while leading very well, was able to score 3 goals, I watched this match much more excitingly than watching Portugal against the Czechia. Arda scored his second goal fantastically, but honestly the first and second goals were the most eye-catching goals. Once again Arda has proven that he is a quality player, in the national team Arda is able to be a figure who contributes and is willing to work hard.

I followed the first part of the game and I saw a total domination from Portugal with few opportunities from Czechia stopped by the defence line. There was a very good assist made to Leao but he was like 1 second late from scoring the first goal. That was the most threatening attack since the beginning of the game. Cristiano Ronaldo header was the other opportunity to score that was missed. Overall, Portugal deserves to win.

It is early to say that since Turkiye faced the weakest team in the group in my opinion. Turkiye has to win against Czechia if they want to qualify.

Honestly I'm not surprised that Portugal struggled to win against Czechia. Czechia is a strong side to beat in a football match. They might not be among the Europe top teams, but when you are playing them, you will struggle to win. They knew that if they come out to play against Portugal man to man, Portugal will score them many goals. So they tried to defend and concede as few goals as possible in order to have a chance to qualify from the group. From their pattern of play you will see that Czechia were aiming for a draw in this match and they nearly achieved it if not for the late goal from the Portuguese side. Watch out what will happen when they play Georgia in their next game, you will see how aggressive Czechia will be. They are certain that Portugal are going to beat Turkey. But Turkey are not going to hand Portugal an easy win here, Turkey are going to make things difficult for Portugal, they are going to defend more than Czechia did against Portugal today, knowing fully well that a draw against Portugal will be a step closer to qualify out of the group stage.

Portugal never expected Czech to be much of a opposition to them, They were lucky to get away with this victory. I failed very sad for the Czech Republic players because they worked so hard against Portugal, defended so very well in the first half and then the second half, tried a tactic to put them in front which worked. The players were overwhelmed with the Portuguese pressure and started making mistakes, that was their pitfall. Turkey and Georgia will not be easy for Portugal to beat.

However, credit must be given to the Czech team; they have put up a strong fight and look solid defensively.

In my opinion, this is a result that shows that Portugal will hardly win this euro, the opponent of today's game was not a strong opponent when compared to the squad of both teams, but even so, Portugal had a lot of difficulties to win the game, Portugal's attack it was inefficient, even though they had more than 70% possession of the ball they were unable to be effective in attack and won thanks to luck. That's why at least until now I only see Spain and Germany as being the favorite teams to win this euro, the other teams like France, Portugal and England, so very weak, although they are teams that have very good players, it seems to me that they need of having a good coach, France continues with the same coach from the World Cup, but even so I see that France should have put another coach

I wasn't expecting us to be the leader in Group F after the first matches.

Turkey is to be congratulated, having won the first game was a very good thing, but the problem will be in the next 2 games, because Portugal will be a complicated opponent for Turkey, but if Portugal plays like they did today, then I see Turkey having a good chance of If they beat Portugal and then Turkey they can also beat Czechia. Before these games started, it seemed that Turkey was in a very difficult group, but looking at Portugal's performance, I see that Turkey is in a group that has a good chance of qualifying for the next stage.

[Alpha Marine]

Turkey hopes to become the winner of the Group so that they don't meet a strong team in the round of 16 later.
They must be able to win against Georgia and Czech with lots of goals and at least able to hold Portugal to a draw.

Turkey has a very big chance of topping that group but they would have had a bugger chance if Portugal were denied the 3 points by Czech a few hours ago. The game was all Portugal from the beginning to the end of the first half and even in the second half, Portugal was the only team playing any football because the Czech were so poor on the field, but to everyone's surprise, they got the first goal. Portugal had to fight to get the comeback because it was looking like a draw.

Despite Portugal getting 3 points today, they were not convincing because the Czech was so bad yet Portugal struggled, what would have done when they faced a better-equipped team? Turkey can take full points from their next two games and Portugal is one of them. That would be very difficult for them to do, but very possible.
I know it's too early in the competition to say, but I don't see Portugal making it to the finals, let alone winning the trophy despite being packed with stars.

[Gencecikmen]

Portugal won a comeback win against the Czech Republic in their Euro 2024 opener. Despite dominating possession, Portugal’s performance was unconvincing with a slow build-up and lack of creativity. Cristiano Ronaldo, playing at his sixth European Championship, missed key chances. The Czech Republic led with a goal from Lukas Provod, but an own goal by Robin Hranac leveled the game. Conceicao’s goal in stoppage time gave Portugal a 2-1 victory.

[bering]

This is hard match for Portugal because it's not easy to beat Czech Republic i can see Czech Republic was attempts to targetting draw result and it showed from their game plan that since the beginning of match Czech Republic has been putting all of their players into their defensive lines or parking bus strategy because they know Portugal is very dangerous and they focusing to their defense and several times attempts to threaten Portugal defensive lines with counter attack strategy
And this strategy was succeed to make Portugal gets in trouble and they even can leading the match from Lukáš Provod but Portugal hasn't give up and they focusing to attack and the result is they can scores 2 goals from Robin Hranáč own goal and super subs player Francisco Conceição and congratulation to Portugal because they have been through an this match with the winning result

Portugal's game was actually very cool in this match, they built attacks smoothly, very different from Portugal who usually play counter attacks. However, Portugal was unable to score a goal in the first half. Indeed, the Czech defense was very strong. In the second half, in fact, the Czech defense was still difficult for the Portuguese players to penetrate. There were only two Czech mistakes in this match which made them lose even though they initially succeeded in holding off Portugal's attacks and managed to score a goal against Portugal.

In this match the Czechs made two fatal mistakes which resulted in Portugal coming back and scoring two goals. Even in big tournaments, especially the Euro tournament and facing a talented team like Portugal, the slightest mistake will be severely punished. And Portugal proved that tonight that in the end the Czechs were unable to withstand Portugal's attacks so their lead was wasted.

By the way. There is an interesting thing that happened at the Euro this time, for 20 years this record has not been broken but tonight it was broken. Namely with the debut of young player and Arda Guler's goal, he managed to score a goal at the age of 19 years and 114 days. Previously, the record for young players scoring goals at the Euros was held by Cristiano Ronaldo at the age of 19 years 128 days. Congratulations to Arda Guler.

I don't think that the Portugal team was in much trouble during the match with Cech Republic. I understand that no country has yet understood the nature of this years Euro. So both big and small countries are being very careful not to be eliminated in the group stages and that is why you see that a lot of goods are not being scored. I have checked the Portugal squad and it seems that they have what it takes to proceed to the next round of the competition. And when the squad is so balanced and dedicated having a mixture of old and young players to give their best. I am very sure that Portugal is among the contenders of this very trophy. Let's be hopeful and watch throughout the group matches and see what happens in the other round of the competition.

Portugual is here to win the cup not only here to participate.

Thrilling win at the end of the game with the youngest player scoring the winning goal.

Can CR7 win another cup after the 2016 euro win?

They definitely here not to participate but to triumph, personally they are top five In this euros with squad quality and depth, and the substitutions today shows that. The one thing that Portugal still needs is to get their wingers scoring. Over how many years now they still leave everything on Ronaldo, man is still class but we can’t deny that Those magical moments are declining, his miss chances today proves that. The likes of Bernando Silva aren’t what they are in the national team.

Although I will partly blame The coach; Martinez for the match, he played way too compact in the midfield to allow much freedom to the attacking wingers and this was why Cezch Republic gets away on breakthroughs. But this is the first match more to come but I don’t think he will play this compact the next two games though

[JeffBrad12]

This year's Euro bored me a bit because some of the favorite teams couldn't win for sure and I think they really struggled to score goals. Even though they should be able to win with a difference of more than 2 goals with the depth of the squad they have, this time we also saw strong resistance from non-seeded teams.

I really appreciate the performance of this underdog team and they really don't want to just give up, especially since every opportunity is very equal to other countries to qualify from the group stage. Kylian Mbappe's broken nose incident was quite worrying and he was immediately taken off for treatment. I heard the news that he can still play at the Euros this year but will have to wear a mask and everyone knows he will be closer to the character of Donatello in Ninja Turtles.

Daaaaaamn     
By the way, this is an unpleasant injury because although it allows you to continue playing, the likelihood of a relapse is high, after all, football is a contact sport.
As for the games, I don’t understand what you expected - in my opinion, everything is quite fun and the average performance is quite high. The fact that the favorites do not always win or do not win big is normal, otherwise there would be no interest in watching games before 1/4.

Mbappe's nose had been fractured, which was a significant injury. If I were the president of the French Football Federation, I would not force Mbappe to play wearing his mask. Mbappe's broken nose will undoubtedly cause him misery. Ultimately, Mbappe's injury will have an impact on his performance at Euro 2024.

I absolutely agree with you regarding the euro 2024. Although we are still in the early stages, several surprises have arrived, particularly from Belgium and Ukraine. Overall, Euro 2024 isn't that horrible.
