The match was alive till the last, because whenever Luxemburg makes a goal Turkey used to make a goal. This way there is consecutive goals from Luxemburg followed by Turkey. So, from the beginning to the end the goals used to get levelled often. Finally at the 69th minute Luxemburg lead the match 3-1 and Turkey fought till the last and levelled the goals 3-3 once again at the last moment.

In the 69th minute, Luxembourg took the lead with the score 2 - 3 instead of 1-3. Turkey got their second goal after Luxembourg defender (Maxime Chanot) scored an own goal. From this 2 - 3 score, Turkey managed to equalize the score after Ismail Yuksek, who was a substitute, scored a goal in the final minutes of the match.

FYI, this match is the debut match for Ismail Yuksek in the national team, he made a good debut with his 1 goal. About the game as a whole, I am quite disappointed with Turkey's performance, they are a strong team, but can only get a draw with Luxembourg.

About Poland, their defeat is not a shock for me because they rely too much on Lewandowski. They failed in latest Euro when Lewandowski was constrained by opponents and other players can not support or cover Lewandowski.

A huge disappointment in Poland, not because of result but mostly because of style of game. It was a really bad game and thinking about World Cup coming, there is nothing to be optimist.
About Lewandowski - yes, there is still too much hoping for a one man who will do all the job. On the other hand, hard not to see that usually he plays much better games Bayern and Barcelona than in national team.

Turkey was pretty close to a humiliating defeat against Luxemburg, but they managed to equalize the result at the end.
The rest of the games were no surprise. France, Belgium and Netherlands were way stronger than their opponents. Croatia had problems with Denmark, but the Croatian attack was really good at the end of the game. Can't wait to see Italy vs. England. The English team seems like a favorite for winning this match, but the Italians cannot be underestimated. I also think that Gibraltar can get a draw against Bulgaria.

Croatia did well... I thought Denmark would win, but Croatia showed a good level, although the game stats were the same, with the same number of shots on target... Now Croatia have swapped with Denmark in the standings and are in first place... France also finally managed to win but is still deep in the relegation zone...
France have won against Austria 2-0. Even after the win it is placed at the third position. France won the 2021 UEFA Nations League and this time the win have made its players refreshed and boosted. Netherlands have won against Poland and Poland is in a difficult position to move to the top two places of the group.
Yes, France are finally starting to show their level and I hope they can rise higher in the group...
Poland, on the other hand, have a really desperate situation to get to the second place in the standings... For that they need to win two games with Belgium losing two games... I think it's impossible...

What do you guys think about Italy vs England tonight which is the same game as it was the final in the last Euro cup,we had the first encounter between these two teams finish 1-1 and I think that can be the result of tonight game also but I don't know why bookies show as a slight favorite England when they could not win at home both in the final of the Euro and both at this league.I think it either finishes 1-1 or Italy makes a narrow win tonight.
Italy have more injuries and their form have been becoming worse and worse after the Euro final match. In contrast, England don't have big improvements or big decreasing performance. So I think England can win this match but they also have issues with their defense. So Italy will have some chances with counter attack but only if their attacking players can play well.

It is very final preparation before the World Cup so England and Southgate won't waste it. He will let England starting this match with a strongest squad as possible.

France have won against Austria 2-0. Even after the win it is placed at the third position. France won the 2021 UEFA Nations League and this time the win have made its players refreshed and boosted. Netherlands have won against Poland and Poland is in a difficult position to move to the top two places of the group.
More important, Mbappe is improving his performance in France national team. After the drama in Euro, he gradually to come back. France and Deschamps need a best Mbappe for the World Cup.

About Poland, their defeat is not a shock for me because they rely too much on Lewandowski. They failed in latest Euro when Lewandowski was constrained by opponents and other players can not support or cover Lewandowski.

While for Germany I would be extremely surprised if they don't win in their home field against Hungary,a team that lately brought problems to Germany.

What a game. Both sides displayed outstanding football. The French team produced a lot of opportunities in the first half, but I'm not sure if that was because they lacked a finisher or because of the Austrian defense. Anyway, I had fun watching Tchouaméni, Giroud, and Mbappe. Giroud deserves praise for his stunning header. Despite this, I don't believe this squad is capable of winning.
France won their game against Austria and I think Deschamps is doing his possible best to win games despite some of his Players been injured. It's not good results for the frenchman and I think they will definitely bounced back but it's a matter of time. Olivier Giroud and Kylian Mbappe proved once again that's he fit and capable of the tasks ahead. France have a good defense and their Midfield is intact including their frontlines. They can only lose a game only if they're relenting on the pitch buy if they come out and play game, they will definitely beat tough country in the competition.

France won easily today and could have won with a bigger amount against Austria.

A really solid performance from Croatia against a strong Danish team. I'm happy to see that Šutalo was paired with Gvardiol in defence, that would most likely be my partnership to start the World Cup as well.

In the last game against Austria a win would mean we top the group - which would be a great achievement considering how strong the group has been.
After tonight, I'm confident we'll put up a good performance and get back to Austria for that embarrasing loss from the beginning of the cycle.
Sutalo and Gvardiol are a perfect match in the defense of the Croatian team. In the match against Denmark, the duo was very solid but Gvardiol's role appeared more than Sutalo's.
I think if at the World Cup later, this duo will be a very difficult duo for opponents to penetrate.
I am very happy for Croatia's results. Brozovic continued his scintillating form in the Croatia team alongside captain Modric.

Türkiye - Luxembourg game finished 3-3. We are guaranteed to go to League B.
Türkiye played badly. If we play like this in League B, we can relegate to League C again. I hope this doesn't happen.
İsmail Yüksek scored his first goal in his first national team game. (Goal was very nice.)

A bit disappointed with the performance of Turkey tonight after betting on them to win against Luxembourg I never thought the game could turn out to be something that Turkey's side will struggle to get a draw.
Not so bad if you ask me. At first, I saw a Turkish side going for the goal, all there controls were on point although, at most times when they tried to get the ball into the keeper box, the get interrupted by the Luxembourg defence. Again and again they tried, but the very first good chance Luxembourg had, they guided it into the post. This made me view them for a opportunist side but they got better.
Sooner, Turkey had its well owned penalty and scored. Luxembourg still got the best of them Danel Sinani goal of which was responded to with an OG to end the first half.

In the second half was where I don't understand how Turkey couldn't manage to get ahead as Cengiz Under created 2 good goal opportunity with his crosses into the box but, Enes Unal couldn't manage it with a free header and so they had to wait on Luxembourg to score again and then they respond. Luxembourg was better but Turkey wasn't so bad after all.

Brotherhood is love
France won 2-0 over Austria, this was their first win so far. Mbappe and Giroud scored 1 goal each and so far they have packed 4 points from 5 matches.

French fans seem to be very disappointed in the previous 4 matches as they didn't manage to win a single match. But today's 3 points seem to be a bit of a relief from that disappointment. I believe this UEFA National League seems unimportant to France.

I can say that it's vert unimportant to them. In the previous. In the previous matches they play, they don't come with their full squad. You will see a player like Mbappe on the bench and even Benzema. When second half is about to end, the coach will introduce all the strikers Mbappe, Benzema, Griezmann, Coleman, Nkunku etc just to get a goal.
I just feel that France will only give their best on the world Cup, so be careful betting on France in this league.

The result of the Turkey - Luxembourg game was quite surprising to me. Just as bookmakers I was also waiting for a clear victory by Turkey. But they would have even lost the game in their own stadium. Thanks to I. Yuksek's amazing goal they saved one point. 3-3 was a really absurd score. I knew that Luxembourg were doing a good job in the group but there was still a huge gap between these teams when we compare the qualities of the players. Maybe Turkey wanted to play relievedly after having a safe point gap in the group.

A lot of defensive errors were noticed on the side of Turkey, and the performance of Turkey players is bad because they only push attack when they are on the losing run which shouldn't happen for a team that has been consistent with a brilliant performance, am not going to say am happy with the outcome of the game but I think Luxembourg side deserves to win but they could not defend their goals to the last minute.

France Poland and Belgium are winning, not a single surprise.

to be honest i didn't expect france to put their best players right at the beginning of the game and when i saw the composition of france and belgium players i couldn't resist and immediately bet on france and belgium, and I made a good choice because they won without much difficulty. I really believe that the france coach is using these games to serve as preparation for the world cup, of course he must have asked his players not to try too much to avoid serious injuries

BTW this cup is useless especially this year with a lot of games and the world cup in 2 months.


What is the point?

I also don't understand why they didn't postpone all these games, because they know there's a world cup, they know there's games in the local league and champions league, europe league, europe conference, there are so many games and then there's the world cup that is very close For starters, I don't see the point of being in these games wearing players down

Turkey vs Luxembourg was the most entertaining match of tonight
You can say that again. I didn't get to watch the game when it was live but you can be damned sure I am watch the replay as we discuss and the game is been full of back and forth activities. Both teams shows that they are very prepared for this match.
The first goal was such a huge error from the defence and the goalkeeper where his attempt to lift the ball right over the head of the goalkeeper ended up providing an assist for Marvin Martins and Caglar Soyuncu laboured in vain in an attempt to defend his post.
Goals and responses everywhere.

Once again world cup is getting closer and nations would have had some friendlies if they could but instead they are playing in this insanely sueless tournament. I can't believe that they are forcing nations to join this, it's just another way of making money by UEFA who already makes so much money and didn't want nations to do their own friendlies and decided that every single game could be played under either Fifa or Uefa banner.

In the end, these games do not matter, no proper nation would care about these games and it's clear that we are going to see them not even play their starting eleven at certain times, maybe younger players who want to show themselves.

Separate scores at Turkey's home against Luxembourg, no less than 4 goals in the first half. Luxembourg led 0-1 and 1-2, but Turkey equalized twice. It is also striking that France is still 0-0 at home against Australia. Croatia just took a 1-0 lead against Denmark. In the other ! In the group, Belgium is easily ahead against Wales 2-0 and the Netherlands is ahead 0-1 against Poland. I expect a few more goals in those matches. We see more and more rotations of teams to find the best composition. France is very disappointing.
Turkey vs Luxembourg was the most entertaining match of tonight as every time Luxembourg takes lead and host nation Turkey searching for equalizer at the end of the day we have a draw which is surely disappointing for host nation Turkey with score of 3 - 3 but in other matches most of the favorite teams won their matches easily like Belgium, Croatia, Netherlands and France no surprising result which is good but few bad news as we have few good players were off the field with injuries which is surely going to be concern in coming days specially any serious injury can bring a big setback for any team.

Right now many fans are asking what is the purpose of these matches specially before world cup because mostly feeling thee are useless and have no positive impact on teams performance but can create problems which is surely going to be concern for teams.
