Euro 2020 - Football

I am Ashlynn

Is anyone following the tournament, who are you supporting and how do you think they are doing, and any prediction for the teams in the final and who will win?

Since Ireland didn't even qualify, I'm not really supporting anyone but I am watching a bit. Italy are looking like they might be there at the end and and lift the cup to me.

Ash

As long as England are in the competition, I will be supporting them. There are some extremely strong teams this year whilst some others are struggling a bit like Germany. Can't wait for the RO16 to start again. I've been missing the daily football matches 🙁

Ash some others are struggling a bit like Germany

I am not a fan of football but what I realised a long time ago is that if someone says that then Germany normally come back and win something. 😆

John

I haven't really been following it at all, just checking the results every couple of days.

Going into it I would have predicted Belgium and France to both do well, and you can never rule out Germany when it comes round to major tournament time. They are all through the group stages, and if I was going to put money on someone I think I'd stick with Belgium.

Haha, true. We'll have to wait and see how they play against England I guess because a lot of the English fans (myself included) are a bit confident. The winner of that match should have a relatively easy run to the final.

I have seen a few games, European soccer is probably bigger over here than or domestic league.

Italy and France are looking good, maybe England can make it a long way too.

Piri

Stasys-Girskis Italy and France

I picked these two as well.

I think England might win this over actually 🙂

Arvīds

Ash It's on, good luck to England. 🙂

Beating out Portugal was a big win for Belgium but they picked up injuries to two of the most important players, I think that will be their last win.

Ash

They did not look like they were going to score much either so I think Belgium will struggle a bit unless they can get Lukaku into the game a lot more. The injury to De Bruyne and potentially Hazard is going to be a huge issue for them.

John

@Lison and @Ash I hear you about De Bruyne and possibly Hazard but I am still not ready to write Belgium off.

Ash

Looks like we got the win. It was a bit of a dodgy performance from the start but Grealish managed to make a huge difference for us and helped us out. I can definitely see us making the final now!

Öko Kaapo

Ash Congratulations, a long time since England beat Germany in a game that mattered 😃

Ash

Yeah, definitely not a result that a lot of people thought was possible but it's great for us. I don't want to jinx it but the next two games (if we make it through) are somewhat easier.

Stasys-Girskis

With France out, Italy seem like a good bet, England and Belgium also have a chance.

Ash

Stasys-Girskis

Definitely. My predictions have also included Italy, England, and Belgium but I realised that I completely forgot about Spain. I think they will be able to do quite well especially considering they have been scoring a lot recently!

I am Ashlynn

A few hours until the quarter finals start…

Only one of Italy and Belgium can go through, I'm predicting Italy.

Ash

Wouldn't be surprised with an Italy win but I predicted a Belgium win on the new Reddit predictions game. The Switzerland Spain game right now is looking really good. Will be a huge shock if Spain ends up losing though

Ash - A lot of people forgot about Spain this time around I believe. But here they are in the semi-final about to go against Italy. In the other one I think England are too strong right now for Denmark.

I am predicting the final of Spain-England and I do not know really who can win that one.
