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

[aoluain]

Let's say England somehow won Euro 2024 title despite playing really boring. I would still sack Southgate.    Because he just can't be trusted for next years. He isn't the right manager for this team clearly.

I don't understand bookmakers either about insisting on showing England as the closest team to the trophy. Yeah maybe they have the highest squad quality in the tournament. But do they really overlooking the manager fact? They are lucky about one thing that Spain or Germany are saying goodbye in this round. However it is very probable to have a draw against one of them in the finale. If England also make it there though. 

I dont understand it either, I guess they are basing it on all the top quality world class players in the
squad ^{who cannot play effectively enough as a team}.

They definitely have the easier side of the draw for sure, look at that other quarter finals side with
Germany, Spain, Portugal and France!

I have been listening to some punters for a few days now and all think that Switzerland shouldnt be
written off but if they do manage to beat the Swiss I believe they will grow in confidence and could
be difficult for either the Netherlands or Turkiye to beat. I would like to see the Dutch go through to
the final at least.

Dumbfounded England won the Euro 2024 title, England just needs to get past Switzerland - Netherlands then the team is in the final there England will pit their luck. About Southgate will be retained by the English federation.

Sya thinks there England has high quality players, the manager's talent has been ignored because Southgate will not affect the results, while the players may play better than expected but if there is no better tactics their game will be bad.

[Adiljutt156]

The Netherlands managed to put out their best performance in this match, this is the real Netherlands, they played quite well organized in all areas but their weakness was that they couldn't be consistent, which has been the case all along.
Romania tried to do their best but they lost in terms of quality. I watched this match and saw how difficult it was for Romania to develop their performance, and that was because the Netherlands played quite well.

The Netherlands deserved to win with their performance like that in the match against Romania, but the Netherlands must also be able to continue to improve in the quarter-finals because their opponent in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals this time is Turkey, who in general are not too bad at Euro 2024 this time. And I think the match for the Dutch national team in the quarter-finals is also a match that will be quite interesting to watch because these two national teams both have players who are quite capable at the moment.

Romania football team could not play well in this tournament and Netherland Football team easily qualify for quarter final . But Turkey is most favorite team in quarter final because they have most experienced player's in the team and their performance is top class and they will play well in quarter final against Netherland team and they will win the match easily by high margin. Knock out stage is different from the group stage and we will see the good match if Netherland team resist againt Turkey and match could be interesting because some players of Netherland team can give tough time to Turkey team . Otherwise,  Turkey team is favorite for this match and and they have capability to play semi final against big team .

For the record, England found it very difficult to beat Slovakia. They almost lost when Ivan Schranz scored a goal and held on until the end of the match. Bellingham brought Real Madrid's mentality and managed to score a goal in added time. And Kane scored the second goal in extra time. Their opponent is Switzerland and I think Switzerland is stronger than Slovakia. England must be wary of Switzerland because they managed to beat Italy in the previous round.

The Netherlands was defeated by Austria and Austria lost to Türkiye. It will not be easy for the Netherlands to beat Türkiye because Türkiye is one of the underdogs at Euro 2024.

Since the Euro started, England has become one of the favorite teams to win the trophy and I don't know what is the reason why they are favorites, but in fact I see it looks like England will face a difficult match against Switzerland later, what you say is true, although England is full of there are a lot of young and talented players but I don't think they can integrate well into the team, so we can see how they went through the previous match with great difficulty to achieve victory, the match against Slovenia can be a reference for us to see how strong England really is, and I personally am quite doubtful that they will be able to win over Switzerland in the quarter-final match later.

Turkey was the most surprising team for me at euro this year apart from Switzerland which was able to reach the quarter-finals, even though the Netherlands has been a pretty strong team so far but considering their history and mentality so far of course Turkey has a big chance of being able to destroy the Netherlands in the next match, Turkey, which is mostly made up of local club players but has been able to show quite impressive performances in each of their matches, so I think Turkey should be one of the favorite teams to continue to semi-final round.

[Jody.Drummer]

Coming up to the quarter final matches, England and Netherland seems to be the teams with bigger chance to go through semi-finals.
But since we have seen ourselves that most of them were struggling (except Spain), I have to say that every team in the quarter final have equal chance to qualify for semi finals.

For the record, England found it very difficult to beat Slovakia. They almost lost when Ivan Schranz scored a goal and held on until the end of the match. Bellingham brought Real Madrid's mentality and managed to score a goal in added time. And Kane scored the second goal in extra time. Their opponent is Switzerland and I think Switzerland is stronger than Slovakia. England must be wary of Switzerland because they managed to beat Italy in the previous round.

The Netherlands was defeated by Austria and Austria lost to Türkiye. It will not be easy for the Netherlands to beat Türkiye because Türkiye is one of the underdogs at Euro 2024.

On paper, these two countries are the more favored countries, but we have also seen many teams that are not favored actually win the match, and maybe that will happen in this match. England itself still has many problems, even though they have many well-known players, in their games they still tend to play not according to what is expected, in the last match they almost lost if they failed to score a goal in the last minute. Luck is still on their side.

The Netherlands still has the same problems, especially on the front lines when facing opponents with strong defense. They were also quite lucky because they managed to qualify for the knockout rounds because they were one of the best 3 ranked countries, if not for that they would have gone home early. Türkiye is not a team that can be underestimated, they have very high fighting power and that will be troublesome for the Netherlands.

Germany vs Spain will be a very exciting match because as you mentioned that they have a pretty good strength so far and have never lost, both also have pretty good players, I find it difficult to choose to bet, whether Germany or Spain, but with a little instinct maybe I will bet on Spain, what do you think?

The match between Germany and Spain will undoubtedly be very competitive. Because we have seen these two teams perform best in this year's Euro. Both teams were able to show dominance in the group stage.


Source: Transfermarkt

I checked the statistics of Spain vs Germany match. The Spain team is also far ahead in head-to-head matches. Germany have won just one of their last 7 matches against Spain. And the match was a friendly match. Besides, we have seen Spain's dominance in Euro, World Cup and UEFA Nations League. Spain won 3 out of 7 matches. Spain defeated Germany in the 2010 WC semi-final and the 2008 Euro final. Moreover, we have seen the Spain team play well against Germany in the last few matches. 20/21 UEFA Nations League 1 Spain beat Germany 6-0. So I consider Spain as favorite in the next match. Moreover, the Spain team is in a very good rhythm now.

Yes both are quite good at this Euro, and indeed in previous matches Spain always dominated, Germany did not get many wins against Spain, I myself saw this before saying that, although with different sources.

Hopefully this bet is as predicted, this will be a very interesting match to watch, because both of them must also fight very hard, I think it would be very doubtful if talking about the score that will be generated from this match, maybe 3-1 or 2-1 for Spain, this is probably quite doubtful, because the score is more difficult to predict.

[Sorryfor]

The two most competitive teams in Euro Cup are Germany and Spain, between these two teams I support Spain as a favorite. And Spain will win the quarter final match against Germany and they will be able to enter the semi final. But since the two teams are very strong, there is a possibility of a draw, but if the game goes to penalties, it will depend on the luck of each team.

[hyudien]

The attention in this tournament has left the Portugal national team because of how slow they have become with the man Ronaldo always wanting to be on the spot light and not letting the players play as a team, we know it won't help the team in any way. They struggled and managed to qualify to the next stage, if it happens that they continue like they did in the round of 16 I don't see them advancing to the next round. A team that have great players shouldn't be playing under the influence of one man. Ronaldo is a great players but I feel is time to take a bow by sitting on the bench and let the young ones play and he can be outside shouting and encouraging them, that alone will help more than him going out there to humiliate himself but if eventually they win the tournament that's when he have to show up to take his price but for not he's killing the team.

So you don't like it? Do we see that only Ronaldo is aggressive or are your eyes closed because of dislike? In fact, Portugal still needs Ronaldo, whether you like it or not, you have to admit that. Well, let's see, regardless of your dislike that this is Portugal's last EURO with Ronaldo. Regarding contribution, it seems that you were reflecting on Joao Cancelo's statement, but I understand why you went that far in assessing Ronaldo.

His performance may not be as great as before, but that doesn't mean Ronaldo doesn't play an important role. Have you forgotten Bruno Fenandez goal and Ronaldo's assist?

Ronaldo doesn't need to play with fast transitions and rhythms, pressing etc. because his role now is as a Real Striker who only needs to wait and then he can create assists.

No doubt, the Portugal team is lot dependent on their hero Ronaldo but i do not agree that they played badly in this tournament. They finished first in their group , beat Slovenia in the round of 16 (via penalties though) and now they are in the Quarterfinals to be played against France.
I know it won't be an easy match with France but still, they will have their chances and on their day, they can beat them too. It will be a fight between Kylian Mbappé and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Also it is yet to be seen how the 39 year old Ronaldo rise to the occasion.

[Smack That Ace]

And Spain will win the quarter final match against Germany and they will be able to enter the semi final. But since the two teams are very strong, there is a possibility of a draw, but if the game goes to penalties, it will depend on the luck of each team.

We are all eagerly waiting for this match. Because this year's Euro is going to be the most competitive match. Both Germany and Spain performed very well in the group stage. Spain won all three of their matches and Germany won two. Germany won 2-0 against Denmark in the round of 16 match. And Spain won against Georgia by 4-1.

As the players of both the teams are in very good form. And both have strong squads. So no one team can be considered as favorite in this match. Both teams have equal chances of winning. I am still not sure which team I will bet on this match.

It is not wrong if at this time England is still one of the clubs that are favored to become champions because looking at the current situation, the depth of the England squad is very good and that is a fact that is difficult to change because the players they have at this time cannot be denied having skills above average.

It's just that when talking about the performance, the coach's scheme and the chemistry between players in the current England squad, they are just like an ordinary club without much difference, which makes this actually a dilemma if we favor England at this Euro. Because on the one hand England has good resources in terms of players but on the other hand, they are also very bad because they are unable to make a difference in the middle of the squad advantages they have even from the beginning of the euro in the title until the match in their last 16 a few days ago we actually could not see anything special that England showed.

England journey was not as expected, they had a number of star players in the squad but struggled to reach the quarter-finals. Gareth Southgate has not been able to find an effective strategy to make his team win easily, and England was very lucky to be able to turn things around when they faced Slovakia. If England can't find their best game, Switzerland has a big chance of getting rid of them. Switzerland cannot be underestimated, we know they qualified for the quarter finals after eliminating defending champions Italy. Gareth Southgate has a tough task, his position as England manager is at stake.

Meanwhile on the other hand, the Netherlands versus Turkey match will not be easy for both teams, Turkey is a dark horse that the Netherlands should seriously consider. We know that the Netherlands qualified for the quarter finals as the best 3rd place, while Turkey recorded more impressive statistics than them, this is an even match in my opinion. It is not surprising if that Turkey was able to get rid of the Netherlands, because now Turkey has the complete attributes to make a step forward, even though on paper the Netherlands has a better reputation in this tournament.

[Jossque]

England have been drawn against Switzerland. Of course England, who I think have better players, are the favorites in this match, but I honestly doubt that England can eliminate Switzerland. The way Switzerland played against Italy, they are the secret favorites against England. Switzerland has managed to get some good scores and matches in this tournament. So maybe they have a chance to go through.

[Slow death]

I can't understand why they are placing England as favorites knowing that England is a team with bad performance and that seems to have managed to reach this stage thanks to luck, Is a team that can hardly score more than 1 goal, and see that England only played against weak teams in that euro and even so it was bad performance, while Switzerland managed to draw with Germany that is much better than England, then Switzerland managed to easily beat Italy which is the same as England, in my opinion Switzerland will come out with victory in the game against england if they play as well as they did against germany and italy

Considering the squad, England team is considered as favorite in this match. England's squad is comparatively stronger than Switzerland's. But if we compare the overall performance of these two teams in the past matches, then England team cannot be considered as favourites.

England have scored 4 goals and conceded 2 goals in their last four matches. The performance of England's attacking players is poor. England failed to win against Denmark and Slovenia in the group stage. On the other hand, the Switzerland team dominated the round of 16 match against Italy. won Share points with strong teams like Germany. So I would say Switzerland has a big chance to win in the quarter finals.

After I made my post I went to research how the clashes between England and Switzerland were going and I discovered something that made me laugh a lot. England won 9 times and drew 4 times in games against Switzerland and the funniest thing is that Switzerland didn't win in any game. This is very important information that must be taken into consideration when placing a bet and in the last 5 games in which England played against Switzerland, they had the following results:



source: https://livescores.biz/h2h/england-vs-switzerland#european-championship

In the last 5 games Switzerland have not managed to win any game against England and to make the situation even worse is that in the last 5 games in which Switzerland played against England they only scored 1 goal. These historical data make Switzerland's situation dire, because in historical terms England is a nightmare for Switzerland. But in this Euro, Switzerland is performing well and could break the cycle of bad results it has had whenever it plays against England. It will be a big challenge for Switzerland in the next game. Looking at England today and comparing it to England in the past, I don't see much of a difference. Therefore, Switzerland must try hard and focus on playing well and this time they will achieve a good result

[Alpha Marine]

French team is not performing as good as me and a lot of others had expected. They were supposed to be one of the larger team in this tournament but they are barely getting through. The thing with portugal is same, they too are getting lucky at the last moment. The game between them would still be hard to predict.

It's hard to predict indeed. Sometimes I want to go for a straight win for France and then I remember how awful they've been and it makes me think again, but then when you look at Portugal, it the same story. France have been really poor in this tournament. People say that's how they were when they won the world cup, but I don't agree. They were really better. One person France should be grateful to is Ngolo Kante. I don't like hyping players and Kante has not been his previous best, but he has certainly being the best player for France. He intercepted balls and makes sure the opponents don't make use of the balls. Kounde too has been a great player for France. Other than that, the rest have been very average.
France would most likely win the game, but it would be a boring game with very few goals.

The best gameplay in my personal opinion among the remaining teams is shown by Spain, Germany and Switzerland. It's sad that Spain and Germany are playing early and one of them would be knocked out, I guess Spain is a better team overall but Germany would have home advantage.

It's a shame that Spain and Germany are playing each other so soon. This is the kind of match I'd like to see in a final. There is so much talent between the two teams and it's going to be a great show. The two most exciting teams in the tournament facing each other. I believe whoever wins makes it to the final and most likely wins the cup.
I don't agree that Spain is better than Germany though. Germany is more direct and more experienced. Spain lacks goal scorers up front and that could be a problem.

Many doubt England for playing badly while if you look at the head to head you show Switzerland has never won in the last 5 matches this indicates that England is still worthy enough to win even though many still doubt it.

This means that when England won the last 2-1 in 2022 it was still with Southgate meaning there is still hope for England to beat Switzerland again this is indeed no difference only where they doubt England because of their appearance.

Looking at England's squad looks better but Switzerland's game statistics are much more consistent than England, because this is in the quarter-finals hopefully there will be an improvement where England's game is not easily bored to watch.

So you don't like it? Do we see that only Ronaldo is aggressive or are your eyes closed because of dislike? In fact, Portugal still needs Ronaldo, whether you like it or not, you have to admit that. Well, let's see, regardless of your dislike that this is Portugal's last EURO with Ronaldo. Regarding contribution, it seems that you were reflecting on Joao Cancelo's statement, but I understand why you went that far in assessing Ronaldo.

I know you're inside my eyes since the beginning of this tournament, gods of eyewitness. I don't hate Ronaldo or dislike him like you assume. This isn't about hate but haven't you seen how he wants everything to be done by him, he wants everything to revolve around him and I have a feeling that you're one of those Ronaldo's fans who always hide from the truth. If they play without Ronaldo you'd see that the boys have much flexibility and they do roll the ball more better than when they have Ronaldo on the pitch, if he's there he wants to control their movement so that the ball will get to him. I said all I said not because of how or what Cancelo said, Ronaldo is like a punishment to the team and believe it or not, they don't need Ronaldo.

His performance may not be as great as before, but that doesn't mean Ronaldo doesn't play an important role. Have you forgotten Bruno Fenandez goal and Ronaldo's assist?

Ronaldo doesn't need to play with fast transitions and rhythms, pressing etc. because his role now is as a Real Striker who only needs to wait and then he can create assists.

Come in brother, that's a 50/50 thing either he scores or pass to Bruno, you can't be saying that all. If Ronaldo choose to score the goalkeeper won't have stopped it so either way is a good goal, Ronaldo can score same to Bruno. He might be doing that but what then now happens if they don't give him the ball? He gets frustrated and I know that Messi fans are watching him since he haven't gotten a goal in the competition and it would be a blast but the main thing is that playing as a striker isn't what someone like him should have gone for and playing full time is always going to be disturbing to the other players sitting on the bench, I mean the strikers.
For crying out loud they have a better number 9 but they use Ronaldo to shield him away from getting a chance, I'm talking about Ramos. He's good and the coach need to start him ahead of Ronaldo and maybe sub him for Ronaldo. If they can't play while they have Ronaldo it only means they're waiting for him to retire before they can have a chance which is wrong to me.

I agree with you that this match would have been more exciting if it was the final of this year's Euros. Because this year's Euro's strongest teams are going to face each other in this match. Germany and Spain have performed very well in all four matches of this year's Euro. On the other hand, the performance of renowned teams like France, Italy and England is relatively weak.

However, Germany's performance in the face-to-face match against Spain is quite poor compared to the previous matches. In most of the matches we saw the dominance of Spain players. However, the scenario may be different this season. Because the German squad has talented players like Gundogan, Musiala and Toni Kross. It is going to be very difficult for Spain to continue their winning streak in this match.

I am fully with you that it would be more exciting if it was the final game between Spain and Germany of the Euro 2024.
But on a other point of view every game now is a final and all teams have to be perform the best and more.
It will be a hard game for both teams and there are so many players that know each other.
Fingers crossed that maybe the home advantage of Germany gives them some extra energy to win.

The truth is that among all the matches the both teams have played there upcoming match will be nothing compare to what they will face against each other considering the fact that there chances of qualifying to another round depends on this match, so is very important for the both teams to be very prepared as they are coming, however when we talk about best country that has the best performance among the other I may not actually be certain about it because checking there efforts on this season especially from there group stages they both made a good impression and has not lose any of there matches but the only difference is that Spain won all there matches while Germany won two and draw one but still that's actually not enough reason to conclude of the outcome of the match.
