 Copa America and Euro 2016
With this Centennial celebration, we got both continental tournaments in the same month! We could get 5 games in a day, and all perfectly spread out due to the time zone difference.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
I am rooting for England and Italy as usual. Always nice to have two chances at success.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Holland's not in it, so I'll be rooting for Belgium at the Euros. They currently got their best team ever, one that can win it all too.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
England is due again to win a big international football event.
Spain I hope gets eliminated in the first round to see if they finally get rid of that disgrace of a coach they have that only puts his friends on the team and not the players that are in their best form. Germany, having just won the WC, doesn't need another title so soon...and they already have plenty. Italy...vaffanculo
If it's not England, I wouldn't mind Croatia because of Modric.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
England don't exactly have a coach to write home about, and otherwise have such an inexperienced team I don't see them reach the finals.
Spain and Germany are the clear favorites.
England is an outsider, I see them getting as far as the semi-finals.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
England don't stand a chance of winning. If they somehow did manage to get to the latter stages, coming up against a Germany or a France will be game over. But at least they have a better chance than Holland.

But at least they have a better chance than Holland.  England is the polar opposite of Germany. Great before the big championship, but sucks when it really matters. Germany is the other way around. France and Belgium are considered favorites, I gather, but I think Germany will get it.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
After the boring first couple of days, probably due to travel and heat, Copa America has been quite entertaining the last few days. Good to see James Rodríguez having a stage to shine again instead of not having a starting position to play with at Real Madrid.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
For Euro today, I'm thinking:
Turkey 1:2 Croatia Poland 3:0 Northern Ireland Germany 2:0 Ukraine

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
The Poland/Northern Ireland match was the most boring so far. Germany did alright, but not great. Boateng's save was legendary...just legendary. But Ukraine could have easily scored a goal.
Thus far, not a single team was truly outstanding.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Good old England. Just a draw. Quite possibly the worst result for England fans. They can't celebrate a win or get angry over a loss.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Italy and their fucking grandpa team. I hate them. Hate them! Poor Belgium, they played better, but Italy was smarter. Here's hoping tat the ancient Italians will be too tired at their next match.
