Looking at that draw and the England team there Is little excuse to not make the final other than if you get robbed or a stupid sending off.Should be disappointed with anything less than getting to the semis.
Christ, poor Belgium haha. Need to win 3 very tough ties to even reach the final. Whereas the winner of Germany England almost guaranteed to be there.Tweet

Route to the final for England as easy as you could ask for.
All the best teams on the other side of the draw
looking at the draw, worked out well though?Germans were afraid to be honest. They might not get the time if hangary scored again.
So? They were beaten in midfield which is way more important than 2 passes.Aged like milk for you mate. Two best passes of the game!
Well if you beat them all you could get lucky and beat us in the finals.We play Belgium now... if we go through we play Italy... and if we go through that we most likely play France again before the final that's after a group where we played France, Germany and Hungary in Budapest with a full stadium
You can't make this up, has to be the worst draw in tournament history. 2016 aside our luck with draws is ridiculously bad
Sure......So? They were beaten in midfield which is way more important than 2 passes.
Was your fish & chips overcooked, mate? Enjoy the ride… it’s Jeux sans frontières silly season all over again.This 24 teams format simply put has to fecking die a horrible death.
The lack of excitement is obvious.
The 4 best third teams is just pure shit.
You could go through with 2 points.
Ukraine go through with a single win against fecking Macedonia.
This whole tournament is crap.
Not to mention the whole " almost everybody plays at home" shit.
And its 2021 ffs! Call it euro 2021!!!
Well... the 3rd should go home anyway so... it is kind of a gift even if you play Brazil 70' 4 times in a row.We play Belgium now... if we go through we play Italy... and if we go through that we most likely play France again before the final that's after a group where we played France, Germany and Hungary in Budapest with a full stadium

The current one.
As i wrote it Germany was out. AmazingThis one
So far I see absolutely no reason as to why either Germany or England should beat Holland. The group stages should have been humbling to both.England/Germany winner could easily go the euro final and quite honestly neither team have shown they are good enough
Yeah, incredible atmosphere in both games. The half-time break against France, when we were 1-0 up, was quite literally indescribable.Playing at home in the earlier must have been fantastic as well.
Holland's defence is terrible. First decent team will beat them.So far I see absolutely no reason as to why either Germany or England should beat Holland. The group stages should have been humbling to both.
Euro 2016 last 16 draw
Wales vs Denmark, June 26, Amsterdam
Italy vs Austria, June 26, London
Netherlands vs Czech Republic, June 27, Budapest
Belgium vs Portugal, June 27, Seville
Croatia vs Spain, June 28, Copenhagen
France vs Switzerland, June 28, Bucharest
England vs Germany, June 29, London
Sweden vs Ukraine, June 29, Glasgow
I just don't see Holland having the goal scoring ability to beat either HOWEVER i'll be rooting for Holland to win that matchup for sureSo far I see absolutely no reason as to why either Germany or England should beat Holland. The group stages should have been humbling to both.
?????This 24 teams format simply put has to fecking die a horrible death.

Yeah if you weren't excited by today's games, especially the late ones, football might not be for you.?????
I like the 16 teams better but today wasn't lacking for drama
Weird night to go down this routeThis 24 teams format simply put has to fecking die a horrible death.

Germany/england can be in final with easier route with nederlands only bit tough. Low or Southgate who will be lucky.Should be disappointed with anything less than getting to the semis.
I think we will beat Germany and lose to Sweden.If england can manage to beat germany, they'll probably make the final. Big IF though...
Weird night to go down this route

The lack of excitement - both teams knew they're going through. Feck that.?????

Modern day sweeper keeperJust saw Hungary's second goal. Wtf was Neuer doing there.
Cheers brother Although I have been optimistic from the start,I'd never imagine to be so proud of them already. Have said from the beginning that 1/16 is good,but our ceiling is quarter finals. Anything beyond that is a nice shockerHoly moly, I was not expecting Sweden to win the group going into the Euros. I am a happy Swede tonight.
Hard to critique Holland's goal scoring ability when England have scored 2 goals while Holland have scored 8. The whole "easy route to the final" thing just feels like unjustified arrogance when the potential QF/SF opponents haven't been any worse than Germany/England.I just don't see Holland having the goal scoring ability to beat either HOWEVER i'll be rooting for Holland to win that matchup for sure
3rd should go home? That's your worst problem with the tournament format when Portugal, France and Germany can be drawn in the same group with two of the 4 teams in the group having home advantage?Well... the 3rd should go home anyway so... it is kind of a gift even if you play Brazil 70' 4 times in a row.
Group F was probably one of the groups (or the only group) where the best third teams rule actually made it even more interesting to watch and added to the drama since anything could happen in this round.The lack of excitement - both teams knew they're going through. Feck that.
And with 4 points at that. Bullshit.
Ukraine with 3 points? Just dumb.
Croatia vs Spain? They're both SECOND!!!!
Second vs second? What the feck is that!
Im pissed cos not only do i don't know the rules anymore and this var shit is pissing me, i now don't the fecking draws anymore!!
Yep who ever win the match england vs germany relatively easier draw to goto finals.looking at the draw, worked out well though?
Is there a party over there for seeing us go to the other side of the draw?Well if you beat them all you could get lucky and beat us in the finals.
the opponents they played against played a major role in that as well but i do agree that England have been rather embarrassing in this tournament when they came in with such huge promise and expectationsHard to critique Holland's goal scoring ability when England have scored 2 goals while Holland have scored 8.
