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

[Arenga pinnata]

For England, well it’s just stars everywhere you turn, all lacking any major international trophy and are very hungry for that but, they just didn’t show it on the pitch. They let their scare activate safe mode for them and that’s how you trash it. They completely trashed a good chance, especially after Cole Palmer have them that glimpse of home.

good players, as well as managers, these two objects must synergize with each other to get good results. What I see in the England national team is just good players without a good manager, that's why. You're at an important point, England not Argentina that have Messi, therefore they should evaluate where the problem comes from. Play on the field is also influenced by the manager's strategy.

Well, that's what a team must have if they want to really perfect their quality on the field. Coaches who can truly see the potential of their players and can also bring it out on the field are really needed. And it takes a coach who has the courage to create a strategy that is quite attractive if you want this to happen. Spain has this even though the depth of their squad is actually not as good as England. But they have an attractive strategy. Meanwhile, England always played it safe and did not dare to increase their aggressiveness like Spain. Maybe England should look for a new coach who can encourage the players to be more aggressive on the field. And now it is reported that the English coach has resigned and it is time for England to look for a better replacement or a coach who is considered to have a fairly aggressive strategy. And it is reported that Klopp is one of the candidates to replace Southgate.

If a team wants to continue to perform consistently well then there must be good understanding between the players. Any mediocre team can perform well if the chemistry between the players is good. For example we can see Leverkusen and Girona teams. Both teams have performed well despite not having strong squads.

England have a very strong squad. But the bonding between the players is very weak. But I have not seen the coach take any steps to strengthen the bonding between the players in this team. I would say that England won't be Euro champions only because of the weakness of their coach. With an experienced coach, England had all the qualifications to become Euro champions.

England ought to have known from the many games they’ve endured and the bardo escapes that playing it safe haven’t seen them through so well. Against Switzerland was it, the Swiss did score and the moment they became aggressive, Saka found his chance and gave them their equalizer and extended the play time to the plus minutes. That’s what aggressive play actually gives you. With all that squad, everyone of them was world class, not as much as I can say for Spain but, Spain did what they could to control the game and when it was least expected, they found the space.
Klopp wouldn’t be a bad replacement for Southgate, he knows these boys and he’s no stranger to management in England. I think he would do very well if contracted.

If England had a pair with either Germany  or Spain earlier after their group stage or at the group stage then they might have not even had the privilege of playing at the finals in the first place because there was no way they could have get passed Spain , Germany and even France .. yet they failed at the final  ...they really need to put in more effort probably better luck next time as we now have  a defending champion which is Spain.

Yes, it's true, maybe England wouldn't have been able to get to the final if they had met Germany or Spain earlier. But their luck was indeed quite impressive. and it was the second final in a row in which England had finished runners up for two consecutive Euros. And maybe in the next Euro Competition England could again be able to advance to the final. and if that happens then it is quite surprising. But they have never won a European title even though they have always had great players in their squad. And when England made it to the final again, I thought that England would win the European title for the first time. but apparently that didn't happen. And the best team like Spain still gets it because Spain was the team that deserved it from the start. Because the way they play is always not boring.

It was obvious that England was lucky to have reached the final stage, but that can't be said of the semi-final and the final games, the team did their best with a better opponent. Of course, they couldn't have beaten Spain, everyone should know that unless the luck that helped them initially helped them again, but this time, the better side won. Contrary to the claim of if they initially met the stronger team, don't undermine the power of luck, if Spain or Germany met England earlier, they might still have escaped them if they were lucky the way they had it, it would just happen and that's it. Has Germany not been sent home by the lesser teams in top games despite their proficiency? But I fear Spain.

What baffled me most was not even the match but Gareth Southgate resigning after the match. I wonder what he could have done after reaching that level. Some people's decisions will not cease to surprise me. But truly, I would have loved it more if it was Spain and Germany that played the final, it would have been more challenging than the way Spain pressed England as if they were not playing the final.

[Nheer]

This could have actually been a more enjoyable tournament if some other favourites also played better. I mean England and France especially here. I can say England were better to watch at least but still not good enough. Bu thankfully we had Spain and Germany as well.    After Germany were eliminated I was fully confident about Spain to win the title.

France performance was not impressive at all everyone expected more from them but they couldn’t match the expectation. Somedays are like that because you can’t be winning all the time, Germany was one of the best in the competition but unfortunately Spain proved to be better and got them eliminated but at least they impressed everyone with their performance, it clearly means this year is not their years so they will try harder next time.

England followed a more easy route and that was why they must have made it to the final. I also believe if they have been through the route of France they might not reach the final but still that doesn’t mean that they didn’t try their best and reaching the final was totally deserving. England still need to improve in many areas if they want to win the Euros someday, firstly i think some decisions made by Southgate are not the best and it probably have effect on them.

I think so too. If they had clashed with Spain or Germany after the group stages, they might have been eliminated and not have reached the finals. But they did and although they tried to put up a fight, they just weren’t a match for Spain and it showed in the possession and the general gameplay.

I had high hopes for England and for Kane to finally bag a major trophy in his career but Spain wasn’t having any of it and were more determined to win the trophy and went on to win it while putting up a strong performance.

I agree that England faced teams that were easier than Spain when going through the top 8 phase to the semi-finals, whereas Spain from the start was faced with popular teams whose strengths were extraordinary, especially Germany and France. Therefore, it is not surprising why Spain had a different quality in the final. England at Euro 2028 will no longer be coached by Southgate and this is good news because at least there is a new opportunity in the future that England can make more use of its star players on the pitch.

Overall, Spain's performance was much better than England's. Spain also faced strong teams such as Germany and France. England faced the Netherlands in the semifinals and England were only able to score 1 goal from open play and one from the penalty spot. England played safely against the Netherlands and that is what they did against Spain. Unfortunately Spain's game was much more attractive and I think Spain really deserves to be champions of EURO 2024. You can look at the statistics for England and Spain in the final and Spain played beautiful football while England played with long balls and had difficulty penetrating the Spanish midfield.

[Oluwa-btc]

Uefa have now selected several players who are worthy of being included in euro team this year and the team is mostly dominated by Spanish players, So this indicates that the current Spanish squad is really filled with very good players.

I'm comfortable with the front three players, they're all three brilliant players for both club and country. Breaks my heart to see that Germany didn't go too far.
Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal are also wonderful talents, they'll be blazing if Nico Williams's move to Barcelona happens very soon.

The midfielder's too are the exact names I wrote down in my rough note even before this first eleven players of the Euros Competition came up. Daniel Olmo deserves a better club, I don't have no idea if he'll be leaving RB Leipzig for any other club during this transfer window market.
Game after game, I have always talked about the names Rodri and Fabian Ruiz, do I need to say how much important they're for spain? They're the spine to this Spain squad. What I love about them is how they detect plays and link the defenders and attackers.

The defense is not complete without Toni Rudiger, he didn't go so far in this tournament but we all saw his impact. Asides him, I'd go for Laporte or Virgil Van Dijk. Are they trying to patronize that France Goalkeeper? I'd even pick Diogo Costa for Portugal who saved all those penalties.

[Adiljutt156]

Yeah right, this is beyond my expectations. At first I thought the match would be fierce but unfortunately England couldn't do much, Spain continued to dominate the match from the start and from all sides even though we know that England has many experienced players but that didn't help much. This time I believe that England reached the final due to some luck while Spain reached the final due to an impressive game.

Spain's impressive play was quite visible from the start of the Euro until they reached the final and it was quite natural when Spain had more possession of the ball and took the lead in the final before England equalized. However, as you said, England couldn't do much in the final match so England couldn't equalize again after the second goal from a Spanish player in the 86th minute. And that was the goal that led the Spanish national team to become champions of Euro 2024 again this time.

Agree. Because England football team gave their hundred percent and win and lose is a part of game and nobody can win every day and every match because one day you are winner and may be you will be loser in the next day. Because team play the match and nobody can play the match individually and no team can win the match  if single person is performing in te team because team is very important if you want to win any tournament from low level to high level because if players will practice that things in low level then they could perform well in high level. Because in the tournament we want only win and we have to play know out game and if we lose the match we are out of the tournament. That is reality of football team and everyone accept that teamwork is everything.

If England meet Germany in the Knock-out round, they will go home early from this tournament, because their performance is still far behind Germany. Spain managed to get rid of Germany, the quality that Spain has is very difficult to match, especially England who qualified for the final by faltering.
England must learn from their failures in the last two finals to achieve success in the next tournament. The quality of the players is not a guarantee that they can win the trophy without being supported by the brilliant cooperation and tactics of the coach. Now that Spain has proven itself to be the winner of the most European trophies, Spain's golden era will probably continue because the majority of its players are still very young.

I am very comfortable with the front 3 and assuming Musiala got to the finals and eventually Germany wins, he would have been the best player of the tournament.

The midfielder's too are the exact names I wrote down in my rough note even before this first eleven players of the Euros Competition came up. Daniel Olmo deserves a better club, I don't have no idea if he'll be leaving RB Leipzig for any other club during this transfer window market.

The midfield is also fine and I must commend the team of 12 technical men who compiled this eleven. A friend of mine was arguing that Jude Bellingham should come in for Olmo. Bellingham who did nothing but using strength to muscle his way out save the equalize goal he got in the 90+ mins.

Are they trying to patronize that France Goalkeeper? I'd even pick Diogo Costa for Portugal who saved all those penalties.

Someone argued that because he didn't do something similar for the next match penalty kick against France. But I think that once was ok for him to be here unless he conceded more goals.

Because the team was very poor, the real final, in my humble opinion, was Spain - Germany.
That was the real final.  Among other things, we can say that it is the match where Spain suffered the most (even a red card)
So England reached the final by pure luck.

~snip~

Uefa have now selected several players who are worthy of being included in euro team this year and the team is mostly dominated by Spanish players, So this indicates that the current Spanish squad is really filled with very good players.

Maybe apart from Kyle Walker, I agree on the best line-up for Euro 2024. The reason is that the RB position that deserves it more is Dani Carvajal. We know that the right side of the Spanish defense is always safe with its impressive performance. Not only at club level, Dani Carvajal can still make a big contribution to his country until the final.

Apart from that, I am very happy to see Spain's generation of golden wingers consisting of Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams because these two players often cook up the opponent's defense, especially in yesterday's final match against England. On the other hand, Cucurella, who usually performed poorly with Chelsea, when playing for Spain surprised everyone with his performance. Even his crucial interceptions often saved Spain from dangerous attacks from opponents.

Kyle Walker may be one of the players who probably shouldn't be in the squad, but we don't know what underlies UEFA choosing Walker as one of the players who deserves to fill the position of the best defender on the right side of the euro team defense during the Euros played this year, if we look at Walker performance he is actually not able to make much of an impact on the English defense and even in the final we can see if the English defense is too It is easy to exploited by Nico Williams, especially in the final match I saw that Walker left his position too often and went up to help England's attack and instead it became a blunder that made it easier for Nico Williams to provide a pass for the Spanish striker to score.
In recent years Spain has continued to produce a lot of young talent who can compete at international level during this time, and I think we will continue to see Spain become a very strong team for the next few years after the regeneration they are currently doing.

[Docnaster]

For me that was privileged to watch most of England, Spain and Germany games in the just concluded UEFA Euros Championship, I think I quite agree with you to an extent. Germany before they were eliminated by the eventual winners of the tournament Spain were visibly better than England in terms of performance and would've stood a better chance of eliminating England if the two teams had met each other in the competition. Germany who happens to be the host nation was unfortunate to meet a stronger team like Spain in the quarter finals which was why they got knocked out while England on the other had was lucky with knockout stages draw. They had to face teams that wasn't as strong as Germany, Spain or France till they reached the final of the competition. England wasn't convincing with their performances but they managed to get to the finals which was what they wanted but couldn't get the ultimate prize because they faced a better team like Spain

England's passage to the knockout stages was easy for them, as England only beat Switzerland and the Netherlands to enter the final. Spain, on the other hand, defeated strong teams like Germany and France to enter the finals and the final match was within their grasp. If England had played the teams that Spain played in the knockout stages, they might not have made it to the final, although England's performance was not that great. Anyway, as Spain team is strong enough and their performance is not comparable, surely they are deserving champions which is why they won the Euro trophy. But England needs to up their game and if they can build a strong squad for the next Euro Cup they will have dreams of winning the title.

You consider Germany and France to be very strong opponents for Spain, while you consider Netherlands and Switzerland as weak opponents for England. Find out more about what Netherlands has achieved in football and how strong Switzerland is in football. Germany and France were tough opponents for Spain and Switzerland and Netherlands were much tougher opponents for England. You have to accept that England performed well in the quarter-final and semi-final matches which led them to qualify for the finals, while Spain's field is the same. However, Spain definitely performed better than England in the final match, attacking as well as counter-attacking which is why they got success against England. With all the players England have in their squad, it is certainly possible to beat the best teams in the world.

[Webetcoins]

Winners usually get a better sign from the "players of the tournamnet" type of stuff, but I disagree. Just because spain won, they put so many Spanish players there, and to be fair they played all well too, but Olmo? I do not think so. I think even Akanji is in question, I just don't think that they were as good as this, fabian ruiz wasn't that great neither.

First of all, Jude wasn't "this" bad, ok maybe he wasn't as good as his Real Madrid level, he played better at the club, so I agree, but not in the 11 players of the tournament? Are we insane? Dude still played awesome, hell that over head kick goal to make them go on? That goal alone itself puts him here, anyone who thinks he doesn't is beyond imagination. And this is me, being someone who has never set foot in UK ever in my life, I have no connection to them, and yet even I feel mad about Jude not being in there.

This feels too biased to winners and I think he deserved it even more than Kyle Walker who is his countrymen. I would put in some other different players as well, but I do not want to just do all of this in a post, I think everyone basically can see that they would all have at least one or two players they would prefer.

[Jaycoinz]

Whether luck or not , it was recorded that they reached the finals and they would have even caused some kind of upset too if only they didn't go back and relax after scoring that equalizer because the goal made them relax and Spain was tirelessly working in the Frontline with the likes of William and yamal running down defenders on a steady.

[dezoel]

Spain is able to be consistent in every match they play so it is not surprising if we see that they are able to reach the final round and win the championship trophy, facing England precisely the young Spanish squad is able to continue their positive trend so far so it seems that they are also still worthy of being favored in the World Cup later, but it seems that for the World Cup, Spain will have quite a tough job because how there will be many strong teams will played Especially Latin America which is likely to be a stumbling block for Spain later, Spain currently manages to become the country that has won the most Euro titles with a total of 4 championship trophies, in addition to winning the Euro Champion trophy automatically makes Spain current ranking rise to 3rd FIFA ranking.

There is no doubt Spain were dominating team in this event with they won 3 games in group stage and concede no goal and having all wins into knockout rounds with just Germany game were tough for them but still things were well under control in all event which allow them to have win in this Euro 2024.

Spain having good squad with many skilled and quality players if they are not having any serious injury then most chances we will have them at their best in coming world cup even we are having good teams into South America but still things are favourable for the Spain to have good chance of going into top spots because they are doing good job in all departments of the game and their quality and consistency is amazing for staying into top teams.
