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

[Adiljutt156]

The match ended with a miss from Felix that knocked Portugal out of the Euros.
The penalty this time was unlike any previous penalty for them and the 3-5 result was a drama in today's match.

A little disappointed because in the actual match Portugal was still superior in my opinion compared to France especially in extra time, it's just that the penalty was a little complicated because after all this is a match where each other's mentality is tested and Portugal must be willing to be eliminated in this event.

Congratulations to France, it's just that with his current game, the semi-finals will be very difficult against Spain, which in fact is very good for this Euro.

We watched match of Portugal against France and that match was excellent and match happened in Volksparkstadion stadium and no team could do any single goal in this match. That was tough match for both teams but Portugal football team fans are more in number than of France football team. France football team won the match on penalties and that is big success because we all know that
Portugal team was most favorite team of this tournament but they lose this match and now they are disqualified in this tournament and France football team will play the semi  final. The semi final match will be more difficult for France team because they they have many lose players and that can give opportunity to opponent team to play and do the goal.  In today match, France team performance was top of the rank and they won the match by 5-3 score.

Not surprising to see how dirty playing from Netherlands, they committed many fouls. Lucky for them they will meet England, England isn't that strong, the last match they were draw against Switzerland. Dirty plays will make Netherlands win the match.

Do you think so?
England also have players that can play dirty as Netherlands and I trust England Midfielders more than Netherlands because we have seen so far in their matches they played. midfielders and defenders were the backbone of the England squad that’s why they were not too strong in the competition. I will agree with you if you say that Netherland defense is stronger than the England defense, but when it comes to playing dirty, I trust England.

I am not saying that England will win Netherlands, but with some hope and confidence in the England attackers, I can assure that they can defeat Netherland.

On the other match Spain vs France, Spain will win the match.

Spain actually have the players that can win them this title not just France, but remember how good France team is especially when they are about to win title. I want us to consider France too not because of their average midfield performance, but for their attack.

Spain vs Netherlands in the final, seems better since it's boring to see England and France again.

Ohh, as you said, but contrary to my opinion.
I am Predicting England Vs France.

There are no black horse teams at the Euros this time. With the defeats suffered by Switzerland and Turkey, only the top teams will advance to the semifinals. I think Turkey is certainly very disappointed with their defeat because they already have tried their best, but they have had many misfortunes in the finishing touch. This is quite reasonable because after Netherlands managed to catch up, Turkey looked rushed and unable to control their composure. As a result, they cannot maximize the good opportunities they have.

Türkiye, not Turkey. We ought to start correcting that. Tough break for Türkiye in the match. They started solidly but collapsed when it counted most. The personal objective was a real bombshell. Türkiye simply could not retain their cool under constant Dutch pressure. Its annoying as, in the latter third, they seemed hurried and out of time while yet having the opportunities.

Taking advantage of Türkiye's mistakes, the Netherlands proved their superiority. Türkiye's failure is surprising following their early promise. Still, they gave their all; credit where it is due. This Euro has showed us that although underdogs have promise, top teams differ from one another mostly by their ability to remain calm under pressure. Luckier next time, Türkiye.

[Tipstar]

All of the quarterfinals result were as expected and if that were out of expectations for anyone, they should realize that the result followed the senior team in fifa ranking winning over the junior team. That could be a way to satisfy yourself.
Of the semifinalist, IMO Spain looks the strongest followed by France. They are fighting on the semis so it would be an important one. Nerherland is the weakest of all and England is also not in their best. With luck favouring England they might enter the final easily. In my heart, I hope England wins this time as I have always been a fan of English team and they are always a good side but luck never favours them. This time they had been lucky and if the luck continues, they could win it. But my mind says Spain is a much stronger team.

[LGD2Business]

I agree with you. There is no doubt that turkiye performed very well in this match. The Turkiye group is not very strong in comparison. However, turkiye players tried their best to perform well. The players were hardworking and confident. So the performance of turkiye players against Netherlands was very good. But luck was not with them. So until the end, he could not qualify for the semi-finals. But I also didn't think that Turkiye team will qualify for the quarter finals.

At the end of the first half, the Turkiye team was leading 1-0. Turkiye's match strategy was good. Moreover, the team's defense was also strong. So after Turkiye got the lead I thought Turkiye will win this match. But they lost 2-1. In the 76th minute of the second half, Mert Muldur mistakenly put the ball into his own net. And because of this mistake Turkiye lost the match. It was a bad day for Turkiye.

Montella paid the price for putting the team on defense in the second half. In a system without a striker, when he was ahead in the scoreline, he should have made moves and scored a second goal on the counter-attack. He didn't make the substitutions and just watched the game. The Netherlands took control of the game and were effective up front with Gakpo and Weghorst. Memphis played better when he moved to the wing. The Dutch goals kept coming, but Montella took no action. Montella is to blame for this defeat, otherwise Türkiye were closer to qualifying.

I'm confused by the people who still blame Ronaldo, both when the Euros started and after Portugal slumped. So the point is that it is too narrow in assessing the team's play, Portugal played with 11 people and if they blame one person then why are there 10 other people even though it turns out the penalty kick was missed? he is Joao Felix, maybe you  not watch the Portugal vs France match? so you miss many moments that should be evaluated as a whole. Judging individually is certainly very unfair, in football there are definitely winners and losers. Regarding of the attack line the fact is that France is also dull Mbappe Doesn't Have Many Opportunities. So the point is that losing is losing, whether it's about quality or so on, but we can't demand that Ronaldo continue to perform optimally. He is 39 years old and it is normal for his performance to decline.

Ronaldo is currently easy target for the peoples due to his poor run and missed penalty, but we need to understand here Portugal management completely fail to deliver as they needed in this event having too many big names but mostly were on benches which is surely poor coaching and having no trust on youths which can deliver here and Portugal having good and fair chance of going through for the next round even here in this big event we are having poor run from the many other stars like Mbappé with youngster are giving their best and having good results for their countries.

Cristiano Ronaldo is now 40+ with they need to use him as guest player for the motivation but having him and Pepe for all games were not good decision which hurt them badly, and now they are already having exit from the event with now wait for another long time to have things on track.

Today games will going to be a tough game because all the teams will make use of their opportunity to win in this semi final, which I know Arsenal will like to see their striker to lead England to beat Netherlands to qualify for final, and this prediction will come to pass soon. Netherlands has demonstrated some quality performance that made them to get to this current stage, but it will be difficult for them to escape from the hands of England because their coach will make use of some players that will help their strikers to secure some goals to beat Netherlands 2:1.

I agree with you that France will going to beat Spain in this game because they will not allow the game to enter extra time in the second half, before they will secure goals that will give them victory because Spain will be fighting for the game to end up draw for them to beat France with penalty shootout, which France will not allow the game to get to penalty shootout before they will beat Spain 0:1 for the favor of France.

The way you had the semi finals of the Euro match analyzed made me laugh. I don't seem to get how the Netherlands having a dirty play as you classified their football match tactics against Turkey, will use those same tactics to win England. Meeting Spain in the final because you believe that Spain will win France when they meet each other.

I hope you have not forgotten that football is unpredictable. It's hard to predict match results correctly. The team you predict to win may turn around to lose their match. By the way, the four teams remaining in the Euro are not less tough, they are all big teams, and any of them can win or lose to the other. That's football to us all

I don't want to see France and England in the finals because it will be a boring match since both teams are always struggling to find the back of the net in all their matches. Spain will win France and it will be an easy win because Spain players and attackers are always scoring goals in all their matches and tgeu have never won with a penalty, unlike France that have won three matches with an own luck from their opponents.

If Netherlands can win England, I will be happy because England have all the best players and can dominate the match but they find it difficult to show their qualities in scoring aspect.

[bering]

In another semifinal between England vs Netherlands, this would probably be a boring match, meaning their style of play. England they always look for safety in every match, they will come out attacking and play more bravely when they are behind. This match will be interesting if one of them can score a quick goal, because they will definitely try to score a goal back. That's also what I saw from the match in the last 8, their match was more interesting when they were behind.

Talking about England since round of 16 they have to hard struggling to beat their opponents because since that stage England have to playing at extra time twice before reach to semifinal even yesterday they have to beat Swiss through an penalty shootout but luckily England can through an those matches with very well and indeed if we see from their performance during this tournament England performance isn't satisfied their fans because they always struggle to beat their opponents in the normal time but admitted or not although England performing poor but they still can able to advances to the semifinal so this proven England has champion mentality

For Netherlands when they only can able to finish at 3rd place on group stages i am very pesimistic Netherlands can go this far but their performance is gradually better even since round of 16 Netherlands performance is very consistent because before reach to the semifinal Netherlands can beat their opponents without having to play in extra time and last match against Turkish is very impressive because after conceded in the first half Netherlands can able to bounce back and win the match and recently i have checked the odds for England and Netherlands and a bit surprised this time the bookmakers placed England as the favourite

I agree. Even van Dijk confessed that.    He was asked about our player Barış Alper during post-match interview. He said it was really hard to stop him as he was running all the time. Even van Dijk had serious problems on defending last night. Our manager made tactical mistakes but despite that we still found so many chances to equalize it again after it became 2-1. But we couldn't make it...

I wish Netherlands good luck against England. Probably we will see much less number of attacks in 90 minutes unlike our match. Because you know Southgate. 

I expect a final match between Spain and England.

The Netherlands committed a lot of fouls, of course we can see a tough game in matches at this level. But it is necessary to discuss how correct the referee's decisions were. If a few yellow cards or red cards had been issued, perhaps the result of the match would not have ended like this. We cannot say that Turkey lost the match due to the referee's decisions, but it had an impact on them losing the match. This is a sad situation. Let's see how they will play against England

[KTChampions]

Life is quite tough, isn't it. It was probably Cristiano Ronaldo's last Euro appearance, and his team got defeated in the quarter-finals. BTW, a lot of rumors are circulating regarding his retirement from international football. He is already 39 years old, and a lot of people were angry after he missed a straight-forward chance during the last game. The coach (Roberto Martinez) didn't gave a response when asked about Ronaldo's future in the team. Personally I don't want him to retire. He currently has 212 caps, compared to Messi's 185.

It is obvious that Ronaldo is a figure of such magnitude that he will decide on his presence in the national team without Martinez   I respect Martinez and generally respect the position of the head coach of the national team, but some issues are beyond their area of ​​competence, even when it looks absolutely illogical (as in this case, when it seems that the head coach should decide who to take to the team and who not).
Ronaldo still has monstrous ambitions and a thirst for the game, but it seems to me that he understands that his time has passed and will soon end his career in the national team.

[Velvet78]

I think the referee made many decisions against us in the match. Xavi Simons stepped directly on Mert Müldür's shin and this should have been a direct red card. VAR did not even intervene in this intervention. It was a decision I couldn't understand. A red card early in the match could have pushed us to play better. If it had been in the group matches instead of the quarter-finals, I'm sure they would have given him a red card.

I couldn't have agreed more with that... Xavi Simons should have got a red card, not a yellow. That is not the kind of a challenge UEFA tolerates normally. But the referee didn't have the same idea. VAR didn't even check the incident properly. There was a clear foul on Netherlands' second goal as well. When you look at it from a different angle it is clearly seen. Referees did their job badly in this game unfortunately. 

https://x.com/FenerXtraDE/status/1809672283927003338 

How isn't this a red card? 

I don't want to be seen like I'm finding excuses for this loss for Turkey. I just want to criticize the things that deserve. Referees should be more careful in such a big organization.

Actually if Ronaldo was not given the opportunity to play in Euros nobody will notice that he cannot fit into the team anymore because his performance in SPL was in the news a d how he was the highest goal scorer, scoring hat-trick. It was because SPL does not have youngsters that Re super good which was making Ronaldo to shine at old age.

Coming to Euros cleared his doubt to the world that he is old and cannot make any difference in a match the way he use to when he was young. I believe that he will not be part of the national team after their defeat because he is 39 and will be 41 years next world cup showing that he has no cho9but to retire now.

[irsykes]

On the other match Spain vs France, Spain will win the match.

Spain vs Netherlands in the final, seems better since it's boring to see England and France again.

As it is true that Spain is more favored than France which is also playing a little boring looking at the last few matches meaning that there are no more stunning goals by French players even though Mbappe who is the spearhead is difficult to score.

This final match will be a little different even though we consider Spain vs Netherlands which has an interesting game but I see that the Netherlands always loses in this final also in the World Cup a few years ago I don't remember what year, which is certainly usual for the Netherlands to always be Runner up.

but the defense of the French defenders and midfielders is very strong looking at the France vs Portugal match, whether for tomorrow's match they will use the same strategy or there will be a change in these players from the coach. France's strategy yesterday was pretty good ball control and good at passing the ball. and on the other hand, the Dutch are superior in having a good physique for the current euro season

France has a great goalkeeper, a strong defense, a creative midfielder and a fast attacker. Goal productivity has been a problem for France so far and that is why they need hard work and luck to reach the semifinals. Spain is certainly different and so far Spain is the most productive team in the tournament with a record of 11 goals, while France has only scored 3 goals.

The semi-final match will probably be very different to previous matches for France and Spain, but I don't think France has a higher chance of beating Spain if Luis De la Fuente has a special strategy when he can't play Pedri and Carvajal due to injuries and red cards. Spain have also been strong in defense so far, but without Carvajal I think things will be different.

If we compare both teams, Netherlands seems to be one step ahead. The Netherlands will compete seriously against France by eliminating Turkey with 2 goals in 6 minutes. Although France has difficulty scoring goals in this tournament, they are doing a very good job defensively. France is very successful, but I expected a lot of goals from them in this tournament, so I was disappointed in that sense.

Spain have also been strong in defense so far, but without Carvajal I think things will be different.

I would say Carvajal is very important defender in Spain squad. Carvajal performed well against Germany. Carvajal made two important saves. He saved the Spain team from a guaranteed goal. Carvajal's presence was very visible throughout the match. At the same time, Pedri helped stabilize Spain's midfield. Without these two players, it will be difficult for Spain coach Fuente to keep Spain's performance stable.

France has a strong squad. However, considering the overall performance of these two teams in this year's Euro, I think Spain is stronger. The bonding between Spain's players is good and Fuente's match tactics are excellent. I consider Spain as favorite against France.

Even if England by some miracle make it to the final I think the match will still be boring. Yes, I would like to see Spain in the final, they play quite well and never once in this championship have not shown weakness - always fought to the end, the last match against Germany is proof of that. In general, France is not so bad, they are also playing well, so if they go through, I don't see any reason to be disappointed
