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

[JeromeTash]

I see England in the final already to be frank I expected them to win if they could defend well, though i thought Switzerland team would have a better position to win a penalty shootout but England did shockingly better there than I expected since they usually have a player missing a penalty kick good for them, good to see them making it to the Semi-finals

I don't see them going past the Netherlands if they win tonight's match. Just a few minutes away. Netherlands with Cody Gapko and Memphis Depay seem a little more organized. Maybe they could have a better chance if Turkey went through.

[xzone]

We watched a classic Turkish team. The more they played well throughout the match, the more likely they were to win. In fact, they showed a performance that surprised many people.
What happened then? We conceded 2 goals in 5 minutes. And we lost the match by conceding a goal completely due to a defensive error. I wish this match would go to overtime. The happy side at the end of the match was the Netherlands

[KTChampions]

So, all the participants in the semi-finals are known and here are the odds for the title holder:

Spain 3.00

England 3.50

France 3.75

Netherlands 5.50

I wonder why dead England and half-dead France are rated so much better than the Netherlands? Does anyone expect that starting from the semifinals they will seriously improve their game? This is a strange assumption, especially considering that both England and France spent 120 minutes in the quarter-finals.

[baeva]

England is officially waiting its opponent for the Semi finals between Netherlands against Turkey which is winning 1-0 right now while the match is still running. We have seen many matches going to the extra time and even penalties in this Euro, and this is proving the point of how hard and good the performance is, every team here is still giving their best to advance and eliminate their opponents.
We have seen two beautiful goals from Switzerland and England, the game wasn’t totally controlled by England but they performed better and held the ball more, however, Switzerland also they were dangerous with counter attacks.

Turkey also surprisingly are holding the score of this match while Netherlands are trying to equalize as soon as possible before the end of it and falling against another less expected team, beside lowest odds.

England may have dominated this match, but certainly not enough to go to the semi-finals of the championship. I will be amazed if they with such a disgusting and boring game somehow miraculously end up in the final, they don't deserve it. Throughout the whole European Championship they won with minimal score, is that how serious teams play? I would understand if they had opponents of the level of Germany, Spain, France, but no, lol

This match surprised the Netherlands - Turkey how until Turkey defended until the end, while the Netherlands still struggled to equalize, I think many thought the Netherlands would qualify but this reality is still difficult, now there is still time for the Netherlands to do that.

Netherlands have equalized in the 70th minute and have also added another goal to take the lead now. It is now 2-1 in favour of Netherlands who came from behind to conquer the game. The pressure on Turkey was too much and they couldn’t hold on to that and defend their one goal, it is now turning sides and the possession and full control of the game is now in the Netherlands side. They just have about 12 minutes to the end of the match and Netherlands are still in full control of the game, which of course means they can add more goals before the end of the match to end 3-1. Turkey can try as football is unpredictable but I’m not certain they can win the game now again.

It turned out that Turkey could not hold on until the end because it was indeed more pressure for the Netherlands to Turkey which is more painful is the second goal suicide if this does not happen then Turkey can have time until extra time but this scenario remains different.
In the final minutes Turkey attacked several times with crosses but the ball was successfully defended by the Dutch goalkeeper several times it should have been a big enough goal opportunity but look again the Dutch defense at the end is quite solid difficult to penetrate even though the attack was relentless.

[SUPERSAIAN]

Unfortunately, Türkiye lost 2-1 in the quarter-finals against the Netherlands, where they had a 1-0 advantage in the first half. So far, it was a good fight, well done guys, thank you for your efforts, they did what was necessary. I think the biggest problem was Montella, he couldn't find the proper formation or he was just stubborn, I don't know.

Even though we had an advantage in the first half, we could not maintain this score. Our defenders lost their attention for a moment. The Dutch National Team scored two goals in a row. Congratulations Netherlands. Now there will be a match between England and the Netherlands in the semi-finals. I think the Netherlands will beat England.

This is a strange assumption, especially considering that both England and France spent 120 minutes in the quarter-finals.

On paper England and France have better squad depth than the Netherlands, but that alone cannot reflect how much time they need to win their match in the knockout stages. Spain also needed 120 minutes to win, the Netherlands were only better than Türkiye. If the Netherlands is considered better than France and England because the Netherlands won in 90 minutes against Turkey, then this would also be a strange assumption.

England vs Netherlands and Spain vs France. It's going to be two fantastic match in the semi-finals.
Do you think the odds on Spain are a trap?


I definitely want to re-quote this image.

Turkey tried their best to see how the can equalize the second goal that was an own goal but they had little time to make that happen. Towards the last five minutes of the match to the end of the extra time Turkey pressured Netherlands and has some good opportunities but it was all in vain. Dumfries did a good job today on the pitch because he stopped Çalhanoğlu last shot which would have cost them a lot.

The second half was in favor of Netherlands as they made proper use of the chances that they had which led to a successful two goal recorded for them. An interesting second half and Turkey was unable to qualify to the semifinals after scoring first in the first half. Netherlands did a welcome back to the semifinals.

The Netherlands vs Turkey quarter final game in the UEFA Euros Championship tonight I think is one of the most epic games in the competition so far. Before the game, a lot of people predicted that Netherlands were going to easily win the game because of the superiority in terms of quality of players but surprisingly, it was Turkey that was leading after first half. Just like I said earlier in this thread, I know it'll be very difficult for the Turkey team to stop the Dutch team from finding an equalizer in the second half because of the intimidating quality of players in the Dutch team.
After Netherlands equalized, I know they were surely gonna get a winner before the end of full time because they were still pressurizing the Turkish team. Turkey did their best to get a win or even force the game to extra time but their best wasn't just enough. They'll leave the tournament with their shoulders high because they actually had great performances in the competition

England will win against Netherlands that's all I can say at the moment though Netherlands team looks more organised but I still think they win from the fact that they have performed below expectations till this point but are still in the tournament they being able to win against Switzerland who has been doing well and where organised gives me more reasons to stand on this

It was going to take more than having to contain the game the way they did to go past Netherlands. Unfortunately for them, an own goal was what let them out. They did well in the first half but, the pressure was always going to come in the second half. They really did troubled Netherland with the set pieces, Arda Güler wasn’t short on his having to carry the Turkish team like he did and nearly scored from a free kick in a most tactical way, going right around the wall with much power.
Half time commentary have it that Memphis be removed as a halftime substitute but, obviously that wasn’t going to happen and he scored the equalizer. Big teams will always be big teams and delivers the win.

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

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.

the game ended with england's victory, but as i had predicted it was not an easy game for england, switzerland were the first team to score a goal and if they had had a good defense they would have left this game with victory, but they made some mistakes that They allowed England to score an equalizer after 5 minutes, it was a very serious mistake that the Swiss defense made. With that the game went into extra time and even then there was no goal and they had to go to penalties where England were better and won the game. Congratulations to Switzerland for having played a good game and performing well in this Euro, in my opinion. because it is a team that doesn't have many famous players like England, Portugal, France, Germany and yet it did well in games against Germany, Italy and England despite the defeat

So, all the participants in the semi-finals are known and here are the odds for the title holder:

Spain 3.00

England 3.50

France 3.75

Netherlands 5.50

I wonder why dead England and half-dead France are rated so much better than the Netherlands? Does anyone expect that starting from the semifinals they will seriously improve their game? This is a strange assumption, especially considering that both England and France spent 120 minutes in the quarter-finals.

I'm also asking myself the same question, it seems like they are looking at each team's squad and not each team's performance. As the Netherlands don't have many famous players so not much importance is being given, we will see on the field who is really strong, I hope to see the Netherlands beat England and Spain beat France. my prediction for the end of the euro will be:

spain - netherlands

It would be a great final game. Now if the two teams that arrived thanks to luck, I'm talking about France and England, go to the finals, we would have a very bad final game, France against England in a final will not be a game with many goals, it will be a game in which anyone of the teams will be champions thanks to luck

spain - netherlands

It would be a great final game.

But if this happens then it is likely that the champion will be Spain because looking at the history that the Netherlands still cannot change at this time, no matter how good their performance is and no matter how strong the players they have in the end they are always runner-up specialists for state competitions.

It's just that it is also very good to expect this condition to occur because although the semi-finals are still not done but seeing the performance of England and France for this euro is actually quite monotonous and it would be better if Spain and the Netherlands are in the final which is a match that will present more interesting things I think.

However, looking at the current probabilities even though the performance of England and France is still very bad but the probability of them remaining strong to be in the final at the euro this time.

It wasn't a surprise to me that the Netherlands later won their quarter final match against Turkiye by scoring two goals in just 5 minutes. However, England will face Netherlands, and Spain against France in semi finals of the Euro.

The finished quarter final match was all like a finals match. Every team had their best performance and tactics to make sure they win their opponent. God of soccer favored some in their wins through penalty shootouts and some had a late goal win by surprise. The semi final game can end up that way because it will be as tough like the quarter final matches just finish playing, having Spain, France, England and the Netherlands qualify for the next round(semi finals)

[pawel7777]

As we know the final 4, it's about time for the updated odds:


As expected, Spain is the favourite here and England is 2nd regarding chances of winning according to oddsmakers and that's because of how the teams are matched up, with France being considered a much stronger team than the Netherlands.

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

spain - netherlands

It would be a great final game. Now if the two teams that arrived thanks to luck, I'm talking about France and England, go to the finals, we would have a very bad final game, France against England in a final will not be a game with many goals, it will be a game in which anyone of the teams will be champions thanks to luck

Spain and England are my finalist.

England team did not have a good start but slowly they improved. The confidence started to build in the match against Slovakia in the 1/8 finals. The goal from Bellingham to equalize and the Kane's goal in the extra time, England found themselves. Today they were behind but it did not look like that they were in pressure although we had to go for the paneities.

[LGD2Business]

Türkiye lost a game they could have won, because of Montella. In the second half of the match, when the Netherlands increased the pressure, he made no substitutions and just watched the game. He made his first substitutions after the score was 2-1 and it was too late. Montella is responsible for this defeat. He is not a technical director. He had nothing to do with the team getting this far. This team would have been more successful without him.

[Raflesia]

It wasn't a surprise to me that the Netherlands later won their quarter final match against Turkiye by scoring two goals in just 5 minutes. However, England will face Netherlands, and Spain against France in semi finals of the Euro.

I thought the same thing but it was still an interesting situation and Turkey even scored first which I think was an unexpected situation.
Even if we compare the Netherlands vs Turkey match, it was actually better than the previous England vs Switzerland match where this match was more interesting with many opportunities and a very neat exchange of attacks.

Turkey didn't play badly in this match but the Netherlands played better. The Netherlands knew that in the end Turkey would try a quick counter-attack with a build up from the bottom so they tried to cover this with ball possession and increased penetration of some of the fast players the Netherlands have. The results were clearly favorable although in terms of actual opportunities Turkey were superior but with a more complex composition of players from the Netherlands and the experience they have made the Netherlands succeed in the semi-finals for this time.

Yes it was again one of these close games, but as you said, nobody thought Turkey would take the lead. Once teams take the lead, everything is possible. It was a fun game in the end, but the 0-0 was so boring, like France - Portugal, it was annoying. The Netherlands deserved the win. Fine as it went!

Do you think the odds on Spain are a trap?

What difference does it make what’s on paper if in fact England and France are playing sadly? And I'm not saying that the Netherlands are better than these two teams, why do you attribute this really strange assumption to me? I'm saying that the quotes are unfair, the Netherlands could be quoted at the level of England/France or a little worse, but not almost twice as bad.
As for Spain, there is no question about assessing this team - they are favorites based on results and play.
