Match Day Thread EURO 2020(1?)

In terms of the 3rd place sides, there's now a reasonable chance that groups A, C, D and E will have their 3rd place sides finishing on at least 4 points. Whereas in group B, the most likely total will be 3 points (Finland would have to get something vs Belgium for there to be any chance of something greater than a 3 point finish).

A win for Switzerland against Turkey would achieve it in group A. A draw between Ukraine and Austria would achieve it in group C. A winner between Scotland and Croatia would achieve it in group D. A lack of a dominant side on group E (which will continue to be the case regardless of tomorrow's result), whilst still seeing a majority of victories, means that the sharing of points is giving a great chance of at least three sides achieving at least 4 points.

Not certain, but a reasonable chance.

What that means therefore is that there is huge pressure on Portugal v Germany tomorrow. If there's a loser in that match, they may fail to reach 4 points (certainly in the case of Germany losing). And because of the above, 3 points might not be sufficient.

 

Unbelievable atmosphere in the Ferenc Puskas Stadium! Packed full, and hardly a mask in sight.

 

Griezmann's blushes spared by the offside flag.

 

I believe there are very strict conditions for entry though.

 

Yes, I would hope so!

 

How did Benzema miss that?

 

Budapest erupts!

 

Hungary 1-0 France!

 

What a second half this is gonna be.

 

Such an incredible sound, can’t wait for full stadiums again.

 

Deschamps out. Can't believe they're losing to Hungary. Absolutely pathetic performance.

 

Shameful, change the team, not fit to wear the shirt

 

1-1

 

Terrible, terrible defending by Hungary.

 

Strange decision by Oliver there.

 

He played advantage. If Kante had scored it would have been a great call. Can't have two bites of the cherry.

 

Uh oh...VAR...

 

Incredible result. Thought that was a pen at the end but well done Hungary!

 

Excellent result for the Hungarians. Almost as if there's no easy matches at these tournaments.

 

Germany have to get at least a point against Portugal otherwise they are almost certainly out.
