 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
The accuracy of Messi's freekick is becoming ridiculous.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Don't expect great games from all the big teams facing each other. Rarely do fixtures like this produce classic games.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Not sure why Iceland wants to score that last second goal.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
That fucking Iceland goal messed up my tip. Screw them.
Anyway, we are going to have a super weird final round because Italy, France, Spain, Germany and England are all in one half of it. If I see correctly, we will definitely have at least one time in the Final that has never won Euro before. My money is on Belgium, but Hungary could surprise. If Belgium makes it to the final match, they will probably take it home. Their offense is incredible.
I think Iceland will defeat England, maybe in penalties. I have no idea how the Spain/Italy/Germany thing will end up. If Spain wins against Italy, we stand a chance. I don't think we will defeat Italy.
France will play Germany/Italy/Spain in semi-finals and I doubt they will defeat either of the three, so one of the three will stand in the finale.
Then again, with all the surprises thus far, we could have Wales vs. Iceland in the Final. Wales will at least make it to quarter-finals, which is a great achievement in itself.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
I'm seeing semifinal matches as Portugal/Belgium and Germany/France, although pulling for Croatia given their entertaining performance so far in a tournament known for sitting back and playing defense.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Would be great if England now go onto win the Euros. I think they can beat Iceland.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Unfortunately outside that goal and some of the Switzerland's attack after halftime, today was pretty dull. Hope tomorrow's 3 games will be more entertaining.

Italy played beautifully today. And England voluntarily left Europe twice in a week.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
I predicted Iceland to win. And fuck England.  I wonder how far Iceland will go now. I am afraid Italy will win Euro. Frankly, I don't see Germany defeating them. Their track record sucks against Italy and frankly, Italy is just very very good. It seems quite obvious that Belgium will get to the Final. The opponent will be Germany, Italy or France. Most likely Italy, at the moment. That'll be an interesting rematch because obviously Belgium has proven t be super-strong now as well and I hope they have learned from their mistakes against Italy.

Oh and if Germany fucks up
Let Italy win the Cup . I hate them but you have to respect Buffon.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Never saw Germany missing this many penalties in their entire history combined, and they still won, deservingly too.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Watching Buffon leaving the stadium in tears was the most beautiful thing I have seen during this championship. Whenever I see his smug face, I want to hit it real bad. Would have preferred for Italy to be really humiliated, but I'm fine with a win.
Oh and Germany makes it to the semifinals at a major tournament for the 6th time in a row. Might be a record, not sure. With Italy out of the way, I am confident we can take this. The final will be anti-climatic, no matter whether France or Germany makes it there. I mean Wales or Portugal as opponents?

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
France deserved the win today, Giroud, Payet and Griezman are an amazing trio. However, I really felt for Iceland. What a cool team and great fans and they fought up until the very end. Would have loved to see them score a third goal too.
Net match, France should be heavily favored against us. Gomez is out for the rest of the Euro because of a thigh muscle tear, Khedira most likely won't make the net match either, Hummels is suspended and Schweinsteiger's participation is in question as well. So we might have fucking Götze in the front again.
Our saving graces are Neuer and France's somewhat shaky defense. Not a single regular goal has been scored against Germany in this tournament thus far (and the only two against France were during the match against Iceland).
Gonna be interesting. That match will basically decide the Euro winner. Neither Wales nor Portugal have what it takes.

 Re: Copa America and Euro 2016
Germany played better than France, but if they cannot use one of their 20 good chances to finally make a goal, then they deserve to lose and so they did.
I will be rooting for France in the Final. Portugal played a shitty game all the way through and I cannot stand Ronaldo.
