Euro 2020 (2021)

[Jadentheman]

Well at least Messi has less pressure now

hm did BBZ post anything yet about Thorgan being evil enough to decide this game?

 

[DonAK]

Won't be surprised if Belgium are gone in the QFs.

Especially if KDB and E. Hazard are out.

 

[Horatio]

Even with hazard and de bruyne never saw Belgium win euro cup. Seem to buckle under pressure.

 

[Hardy]

maybe we have a chance against this Belgium, not really impressed

Last word:
Scrappy awful game, players looked jaded at the end of a long season and need a holiday not a tournament.

Totally agreed. We may see a lot more injuries during the club season due to the compressed covid schedule and these international tournaments. These players are putting in way too many minutes

Hopefully. France (most likely) in the semis will be tough, tho.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Portugal was better, but their keeper shat the bed at a perfectly saveable shot, Courtois was great, and that's how the game was written. Can't get lucky all the time, sometimes you are the unlucky one.

True. Courtois is playing better and better.

 

[El Gato]

France aren't special either.

Yea well I don't trust anyone on their side of bracket to do the business.

Italy vs Denmark/Czech final would be the dream. Instead we're likely to get the bore of Belgium/France vs England marked by shite performances to get there

Against THIS Belgium you should have a field day!

 

[Hardy]

expected goals

Belgium (0.23) 1-0 (1.56) Portugal

All the years losing finals with Argentina? I don't think this matters at all

 

[KingLeo10]

I'll post it now, so that JamDav doesn't whine that I post only AFTER matches.

It is 0:0, minute 12.
Let's just say that a team led by a good guy KDB shouldn't win this high pressure match against dirtier Portuguese who have more know-how how to play&win KO matches.

Not to mention that Portugal plays on counters, which is usually a win in 50:50 KO matches.

Massive L.

Not so easy to rack up wins when you make predictions BEFORE things happen

True true. The players must be exhausted. Even DeBruyne looked off/bored today. I am not sure if all of them even want to play football.
