EURO 2024 - Group Stage Thread

[Tanko]

@Franz555 is it like impossible or just really really expensive to get tickets to any of these Euro Championship games?

I imagine its harder to get them than World Cup tickets.

The Netherlands fans are awesome. Makes you want to be there for these games.
This is great.... I can't imagine the partying going on.

One of my sons had a few beers with some Scottish fans prior to the opening game in Munich. He said he could barely understand what they were saying but they sure could drink beer and sing. LOL

My sons best friend had 2 seats for the Germany vs Hungary game in Stuttgart. They were Company seats that he said he was taking a client with. He was offered $2,000 Euros for the pair outside the stadium. He asked the client if he was interested in taking $1,000 Euros and watching the game in town. He didn't even hesitate

I recall a group stage game back in 1982 where Germany and Austria only required a draw for both teams to advance ( knowing the score from the other Group game players a few hours earlier ). It was terrible to watch 22 men just go through the motions and help each other out. After that debacle they figured out that it would be best to have all final group games played at the same time to avoid such a farce. With fans holding cell phones to keep track of the other game , it still effects how the game is played but not to the extent it used to be.

Wow! That's really no bueno. I'm glad this isn't the case now.

The opposite actually. The World Cup has a far more limited quantity of tickets for fans because they whore out so many tickets to corporations for them to give away / fluff their clients with. Similar to the Super Bowl where half the people in attendance don't even understand whats happening they just want to be seen there.

Good point fix....
Kind of similar to the Superbowl.

" IF " Belgium beat Ukraine ( I think they do ) , then the Romania & Slovakia game means only a winner advances. Since both games start at the same time , they both would be playing for their tournament lives.

You do make a good point about the line movement though. That's a big move for a draw

It doesn't matter if they get **2nd** or **3rd with 4 points**. The latter is just as good 99% of the time, because there will be groups where 3rd place has 2 or 3 points.

Neither team cares if the play Fav A or Fav B in the playoffs. They understand it's a tall order and they're probably one-and-done... But losing the final group match and having to go home NOW, that's what both coaches will want to avoid.

That's what the market thinks, anyway.

P.S. Yellow card line is 2.5 in this game. It's going to be a friendly, for betting purposes.
