EURO 2024 - Group Stage Thread

[Franz555]

I've always thought the Group stage should be 2 out of 4 advance. Would prefer 6 groups, put 12 in the Advance.

Franz, any dogs you see as being particularly live in the Knockout round?

At 1st glance , I like :

Italy
England
France
Netherlands
Austria
Portugal
Spain
Germany ? ( Denmark could win this game with injuries to Ger back 4 )

 

[Franz555]

Have never seen so many cards on the bench-players.

I thought there would be a riot at the end of the game

Crazy

I think he gave out 1 red and 2 yellow cards in the melee after the game was over.

The ref couldn't help himself.

Thx, Franz. Looking at your list, I'm trying to see where the Upset hits. Have to figure there will be one (like Denmark that you reference).

I am in bed at that time cradling myself with a tear shedding about to fall asleep.

Italy vs Swiss looks like a tight one.

I'm seeing picks for plays on both sides:
Swiss 1-0
Italy 1-0
1-1 draw

 

[Franz555]

Italy vs Switzerland : 12pm

Over 2 @ 2.01 ( 3 units )

What if there isn't a team that is favored????
Swiss/Italy was almost an even match up.

Can’t believe Italy was favored tbh. I know they were the defending champs, but they baaaaarely squeaked out of the group stage. And played like it today. Swiss are solid all around too, as an England fan I am concerned… not that Slovakia is a sure thing lol

England should handle Slovakia no issue unless the dreaded English curse arises again.

good job by the Swiss cheese crackers

Germany vs Denmark : 3pm

Germany -1 @ 2.15 ( 2 units )
Germany 1st half @ 2.20 ( 1 unit )

 

[jjgold]

I wonder why it’s so hard to score in these type of games

@Franz555 you have to be loving VAR right now.
