⚽UEFA Nations League 2024/2025⚽

[Felicity_Tide]

Netherlands vs Germany is going to be an exciting match between these two teams today. However, Germany are currently strong favorites in this match and most punters will be betting on them.
Moreover, in the previous match between Germany and the Netherlands, both teams performed well and there was a strong attack between the two teams. However, these two teams will meet today in the UEFA Nations League, and the betting odds for today's match suggest a win for the Netherlands. I think today's match is not possible to be a draw between the two teams.
Match 1x2
Nederland @2.68 Draw @3.60 Germany @2.80

I joined the game very late(at about 88mins) due to poor network connection. From the little minutes I watched, both teams were playing on a more neutral ground, i.e they both controlled the ball at same rate. I knew this was going to be an interesting game, and it ended in a 2-2draw.  The match recorded a total of 17 corner kicks, with the German having most of them, which showed the quality of attack that is in the Germany team, and the quality of defenders that are in the dutch side. I also noticed that the German players weren't happy after the referee blew the final whistle, because they where on a counter attack. That referee's last decision was poor,.and the PGMOL should probably clearify the public on certain rules that some of these referees makes wrong decisions about. And congrats to England and other sides that won today. Looking forward to seeing all the players in their various leagues this weekend.

Germany would have won the game with those two clear chances Kai Havertz and Undav missed in the second half, it would have been 2-4 but they couldn't convert any of those two. The game was interesting and both teams gave a good account of themselves, they both never let the other to dominate in any way. If the Netherlands continue like this I believe they can be one of the unstoppable team in this qualifications and they can't be compared to teams like England or even the Belgium national team which I thought can give a wonderful performance.
I watched the England game but they still lack so much in that team, they find it hard to get more goals to make other teams in their group to be afraid of playing them. In the next international break I hope to see some of these teams do better than they have done.

Türkiye beat Iceland 3-1 last night. I didn't watch the whole match, I just watched the summary. The star of the night was Kerem Aktürkoğlu, he scored 3 goals and made a hattrick. Türkiye started with a forward after a long time and saw the effect of this.

Actually I didn't watch this match because I thought we would have a bad match and I missed a lot, I'm sorry but I'm very happy that we won. I'm happy to see how well we played with the right game plan and the right game formation, we actually got hopes for the rest of the tournament.

Kerem Aktürkoğlu was unstoppable in the match, he played a much more comfortable and worthwhile match than before. On one hand Arda Güler and on the other hand Kerem Aktürkoğlu were very eager, our young players had a great match.

I decided to cashout, the last match was England vs Finland and since I'm not planning on even watching it there is no entertainment, plus the odds were very low.

England won the game, two Harry Kane goals Improving the record he already has for England. The Finland goalkeeper tried a lot to keep many shots at his goal from entering and making a lot of saves, but England since they kept creating chances, they knew it was only going to take some time before the goalkeeper missed to save one. Harry Kane found the goal twice for England. England are in second position in their group, just behind Greece, but level on the same points. On October 10th, England and Greece will have a game, then we will know the team that will be on top of group C.

The Netherlands should part ways with Ronald Koeman as soon as possible. I don't think the football the team plays is good at all.
Okay, they played against Germany today, but they already failed in the European Championship. I think there are coaches who can make this team play better football.
Even England parted ways with Southgate, who had some success in the last 3 tournaments but was bad at football.
I think Koeaman should leave as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no encouraging things in 2026.

The favorites of Group 3 of League A drew tonight.
Both matches played in the group ended in a draw.
Netherlands - Germany ended in a 2-2 draw. Germany played better but could not win the match.

Georgia beat Albania 1-0 and are leading their group.
Czech Republic beat Ukraine 3-2 and got their first win.

Harry Kane played very well this time. And this is also an achievement and a gift for him. Yes, he celebrated his 100th cap with England with 2 goals scored as the winning goal against Finland. Cool, this time he must be very satisfied with his performance

Today's match between Brazil and Paraguay teams is full of games. I bet on Brazil team as they are very strong, but Brazil team performed completely opposite. Although the Paraguay team could score a goal, the players of the Brazil team did not see any goals. In this case, the Brazil team squad has many experienced players and Vinicius Jr., Endrick, Rodrigo in the attack department, even when the three players were in the attack department, they could not touch the ball in the goal post of the Paraguay team. So what is Brazil team losing with any team, I think Brazil team is facing this problem because of the weakness of the coach.

Honestly, I was annoyed with the performance of Belgium. Shit, they play like absolute shit. Can't conduct a good pass without it being intercepted by the French and at some point it looked like they were deliberately making passes that won't go through cause I refused to understand how a team who where thrashed 3-1 could become coordinated and defeat them and maintain a clean sheet as well.
 Belgium are not a team I'd call strong again and even though they are ranked 3rd in the world, nothing is coming out of them.

Belgium's performance against Israel was good. We saw the dominance of Belgium against Israel. However, Belgium won the match due to De Bruyne's excellent performance. De Bruyne scored two goals in this match.

Belgium's players were confident from the start of the match against Israel. And a lot of attacks were made by the Belgian players. A total of 25 shots were made by the players of Belgium. 8 of these were on target. But Belgium played defensive strategy against France. This is why Belgium lost. Belgium managed only 9 shots in the entire match. Belgium played a defensive strategy. As a result, the French players were able to create a lot of attacking opportunities. The match would have been more competitive if the Belgium players had played attacking tactics. So I would say Belgium lost this match because of their match strategy. I thought I would see a competitive match. But the match was completely one-sided.

That's the problem there. When they played against Israel, they dominated the game but when they got to play against a side that could match them, their wings were clipped. Like they were literally held to a stop because I couldn't count how many times they entered the 18 yard box of France seeing as most of their efforts were stopped half field.

I was fully intrigued by Kane's consistency towards scoring the first goal, the defender and goal keeper of Finland intercepted his targeted shots multiple times. At the look of it, the minute everyone concluded Kane wouldn't score again in the game, he surprised us all with the first and second goal. He's truly a well-made England striker.

I still do not understand the whole point of this tournament just like all the others, it's boring and it has no attention or hype neither, there is no reason for it at all.
~snip~

It is obvious that new competitions are "invented" for the sake of making money, but football (as well as some other sports) stopped being just entertainment a long time ago. Because of all this, the biggest pressure is on the players, but if the powerful clubs rebelled, maybe something would change - but they also receive monetary compensation so that they don't rebel too much.

However, this competition has at least some sense for those who want to improve their ranking when it comes to qualifying for the world championship. Being in the first or third pot makes a big difference.

My predictions for today's games:
Andorra - Malta (a very difficult game to predict, I honestly see it as the kind of game that won't have many goals and will end in a draw)
Czech Republic - Ukraine (Ukraine to win)
Hungary - Bosnia-Herzegovina (Hungary to win)
North Macedonia - Armenia (Armenia to win)
Netherlands - Germany (Germany to win)

You got seriously trashed on those, not your lucky day  and way too many wins chosen in my opinion, plus I would never bet on things like Malta or Feroe, those are so low-level plays it takes just one guy to have the match of his life and it turns everything upside down...

It is obvious that new competitions are "invented" for the sake of making money, but football (as well as some other sports) stopped being just entertainment a long time ago.

I was looking for statistics about those and stumble upon the Andorra - Malta game and this is the best pic EUFA could come with



a 3,306 sets stadium with a track record of ~1000 attendees, why do we even organize these games?

You are right. Israel was a weak opponent. Israel's attack was not strong enough. So the players of Belgium have been able to dominate this match. Since the opponent was weak, Belgium played attacking strategy from the beginning of this match. As a result, Israel's players were under more pressure. Because of this, it became easier for Belgium to dominate the match.

But France was no weak opponent. And that's probably why Belgium's players were not confident in this match. If Belgium had played attacking strategy in this match, the match would have been more competitive. We could have seen more goals in this match. But Belgium played a defensive strategy. As a result, the French players have more opportunities to attack. And until the end, the players of Belgium could not resist the attack of the French players. Belgium's squad is not weak. In the upcoming matches, Belgium should definitely change the match strategy.

In summary of everything, Germany and the Netherlands have solidified their place as the two best-performing teams in Group 3 with 4 points each. Germany was at the top of the game, having full control of the game(60% ball possession) despite being the visiting team. Germany was just unlucky in their scoring opportunities against the Netherlands cause, as not only did Kai Havertz and Undav miss good scoring opportunities, but Raum, Wirtz, and Beier also did.

Kerem Aktürkoğlu was unquestionably the man of the match. When he was playing for Galatasaray, he was under pressure from the fans. It wouldn't be right to say that his psychology changed for the better on the first day, but in his first game he played with a completely relaxed mindset. Also, it should be noted that he scored 3 goals against Iceland, but he actually scored 5 goals because 2 of them were canceled by VAR. So, he got into many scoring positions in the Iceland game, which is even more important than scoring goals in my opinion...

The match between Germany and Netherlands ended in a 2-2 draw and the two teams were almost evenly matched at full time. Before the match started I saw many predictions that put Germany ahead for this match but Netherlands are always a strong team and they can beat any team in any conditions. The top two teams in the group have played two matches each where both the teams are at the first and second positions in the points table with 3 points in one match and one point in the other for a total of 4 points. There is no doubt that the Netherlands and Germany will go to the next round. However, Germany showed enough confidence in the two matches of the group stage that it gives the impression that they can overcome the obstacles ahead.

I cannot believe that Kane is still this good, I expected much worse from him and he is doing quite well, it is a good thing for him because nobody expected him to be this good this much, it's a good thing that he ended up with a bad result and we shouldn't really be worried about him for a while longer. He is old and I expected him to get worse but he looks like he has at least a few more seasons in him to be this good, maybe more we do not know but at least few more seasons unless he gets a big injury of course.

The thing is that England is playing a good style of football now, something they should have played long time ago, and I think they will definitely end up with a better result next time they have a real cup. World cup is next, I think if they keep this up at nations league and keep learning to play like this then we could actually see them be great at world cup and have a chance to win it. Obviously it is going to be very hard, but they have a bigger chance than last time if they keep playing like this.

On October 10th, England and Greece will have a game, then we will know the team that will be on top of group C.

England will probably easily pass Greece and dominate the top spot on their own. We can say that there have been good matches for Greece so far. The match they will play against England will be critical, but considering the difference in their squads, they don't have much of a chance.

68 goals in 100 games, very good statistics. I think he will play (the busy calendar allows) another 26 games for the national team and will come out on top in this indicator (for England).
After some of England's games I feel like Southgate has ruined too many title chances for this team. I don't know if he's the only one to blame, but England were awful at the Euros. Now they play adequate football.
