Portugal-Germany, Sweden-Denmark... Nice

Is it too early to call Harry Kane a one-season wonder?

Yes.

Only a bit

Euro2004-esque
Sweden always knocks out because of a " fixed " result in last match

Keep telling yourself it was fixed bruh. Italians are the most butthurt nationality ever. Goo Sweden. Italians lecturing on match fixing is so ironic it gives me cancer.

So it's Germany vs Portugal and Denmark vs Sweden. Sounds like fun and not fully expected. ^^

3/4 teams i expected to go through, so not that surprising with England choking as usual

Well, 75% is not 100% (I thought Italy would proceed instead of Sweden)

poor italy lmao

I am over the moon ffs semis here we come. if we hadn't conceded that stupid goal vs England there wouldn't have been this much outcry by the italians who think they have been done 2004 style lol

but we scored in the 89th Portugal were right to retreat and keep the ball our u21 team always finish the game well

meh , the goal scored by Sweden in 90' was hilarious
but we deserved to be knocked out , I don't want make excuses.
It was right this.
If you get to last match of group hoping in a real battle in that other match because ytou bottled it against Sweden ...
We  were definitely  the best team of the group on paper imo  ,and I don't know about the tournament... we never would have had to get in these conditions for last match.
Di Biagio was terrible. I appreciated him much as player, but I feel the bench is not for him.

yeah it was a bit lucky that it went in having been deflected. On paper I think England had the best team but on the pitch I think Italy deserved to go through but as you said there is no point hoping for a miracle in the last match after squandering your chances in the first. Maybe next time for Italy

It's going down today. The best rivalry in national team football

Last time we played ended in a 2-2 draw although it was a friendly

Looking forward to it. Guidetti has been very good this tournament, Kiese Thelin less so but hopefully he turns it around today

Almost for Portugal

Portugal really playing well. Can't wait till we play them in the final

Portugal is so much better than Germany. Their Midfield is owning the game.

3-0 portugal. in 45 mins.

Germany getting destroyed.

Let me sum up this first half of Portugal vs Germany:

The portugal midfielders are really good. They are technically on another level to German midfielders imo.

Maybe the boys should have tried to do it the same way as the gals: Play abysmal, but still manage a draw and then go through on pens....

Our group must've been tougher than I thought. Portugal were never this good in any of their 3 games
