Quite disappointed with the Russia vs Denmark match. After their win against Finland, I was hoping for a better performance from them. But they ended up with such a heavy defeat. And the margin of the defeat means that they will finish at the rock bottom of Group B and therefore cannot qualify for the knockout phase. Also surprisingly Denmark managed to finish at no.2, despite losing two out of their three matches (I guess this scenario is unique to Group B). Meanwhile the toughest group matches are scheduled for Thursday - Portugal vs France, and Germany vs Hungary.

And the Finland highlights showed they were quite good also even against Belgium just many chances Pukki did not manage to keep into the goal net (and the own goal to open Belgium's account).

Russia fought really hard for their win and maybe they just did the same here and Danes punished them on counters. It's definitely a weird scenario in this group

But I don't think England will play to win,

The Czech Republic is now in good enough form. If England plays in this match only for the purpose of a draw, their match is likely to be lost. So I think England should play for the purpose of victory. If the match is drawn, unfortunately, it will not be bad for England. But I will bet on England's victory.

Czech Republic and England are currently in the top two positions in Group D E with the same number of points, namely 4 points, while currently winning on goal difference from England which keeps them at the top of the standings and for the results of the match later it will no longer affect the qualification of the two teams both England and Czech, because the losers can qualify as runners-up or as one of the four best third-placed teams, and if you look at England's performance in the previous match of course it was a not good performance and that's why I think England should avoid winning Group D, because of According to the existing rules, the winner of Group D will meet the runners of Group F in the last 16 and we know that Group F is filled with European giants such as Germany, France and Portugal and if England meets one of these teams, of course, it is likely that England will lose.
And that's why being the runner up in group D is safe for England because they will only meet the runner up in group E which contains relatively easier teams such as Sweden, Slovakia or Poland.
If you watch the 2018 world cup, of course you will understand why England needed to lose this match, as they did in the past Grin

Croatia has not played at the level of the 2018 World Cup in Russia for a long time and the team is in a great crisis.
I think that Croatian coach Dalic missed the opportunity in these 3 years to find new, young players, refresh the team and prepare it well for this European Championship.
Modric is still the biggest Croatian football star, but he is already old and tired and can't do everything alone.
However, Croatia is a better team than Scotland and if the Croats will play in accordance with their reputation then Scotland has no chance.
England did not impress me at all in the first two games and I think the Czech Republic really has a chance against England.

It is very reasonable. That generation of players became older and some of them are moving their last steps of career.

Modric, Perisic are older and Brozovic is not good as Rakitic, Rebic can not good as Mandzukic. National teams need more time to rebuild and sometime they need 20 years to have another good generation.

Croatia 1998 - 2018
Italy 2006 - 2021
Spain: they are rebuilding
Germany: 2000 - 2018

Today's matches are hard to predict... But the island teams look stronger in my opinion! I think England can beat the Czech Republic... Scotland showed good football in the last match but I am not sure they can beat Croatia...

Say goodbye to Russia, Turkey, and Macedonia. Congrats on the perfect team Italy, Belgium, and Netherland with 3 winnings (perfect score).

Interesting table, thanks for that. Great performance so far from Italy, Belgium and the Netherlands. Italy has now not lost any of it's last 30 matches, that's a quite remarkable statistic if you ask me. That Russia and especially Turkey are already out is a surprise to me as i would have guessed that Turkey can at least reach the quarter-final and it even was a secret favorite to for a lot of experts, but they just couldn't deliver in this tournament. That France is already qualified with it's four points also means that Portugal and Germany will also be qualified it both manage to at least achieve a draw in their last matches.

One great mention for Denmark that defeated Russia with an outstanding 4-1 and made me a few couple hundreds sats.
Maehle, following a shot by Hojbjerg, scored the fourth goal by beating the Russian defense. Denmark won its truly important first match in this Euro 2020 and ended up with the same number of points (3) as Russia and Finland: Kjaer and his teammates advance to the round of 16 thanks to the better goal difference.
I believe they aren't to be underestimated as a clear surprise.

Group D: Czech Republic vs England
I believe it will be a balanced game. The Czech Republic won't make it easy and England will have to work hard to win. But, I think England wins the game.

Group D: Croatia vs Scotland
Scotland is excited because of the good performance in the last game. But I think Croatia has what it takes to win.

Although the Czech Republic has played good football lately, they are not as good and experienced as England. England is much more experienced and their squad is stronger. My idea is that England will easily win today

On the other hand, today's match is very important for Croatia. They are in third place in the points table. If they do not win today's match, it will be uncertain for them to go to the next round.

I also believe that England will easily beat the Czechs in the next match, but I don't think England will play to win, because now their position has been confirmed to qualify with the best 3rd place and maybe in the match England will only try to draw against the czech and take their position as runner-up group D, or even they will deliberately give up just to avoid becoming champions of group D, because it is certain that the champions of group D will meet one of the strong team who are runners-up in Group F namely Germany, France and Portugal in the round of 16 later Grin

Nothing uncertain about this match. If we (Croatia) win we are going trough, if we don't win we are going home, simple as that. I am expecting a better performance from our guys tonight even though they did not do nearly enough to earn my trust.

I always like to check the quotes on the betting pages. England is heavily favored (~1.5 is the win ENG quote, so that's like >70%) and it would be a surprise if they don't win (similar to the ENG-SCO game). But then both teams are already through to the next round and might try to pull some tricks to get an "easy" pairing for the final round? Cheesy

In the other game Croatia has like ~2.1 for a win, which is like ~45%), so their game is a bit more balanced, but Croatia is favored. There both teams need a win and it will be the more interesting game imho.

In or out for Spain today!
Two draws that sound like a defeat so far for Spain, among the most disappointing big teams. Both Sweden and Poland, were able to harness the Spanish, unable to transform the enormous amount of play created into goals. Mistakes galore also against the Poles, for Luis Enrique's men, including a penalty kick sent on the post by Gerard Moreno that almost certainly would have given the first success to the Roja. Therefore, either they win or they'll go home big!

Denmark's game tonight was really quite good and I didn't expect Denmark to be able to score that many goals against Russia Grin

, now the match is over with the score 1-4 for Denmark's victory, the victory in this match is proof that Denmark is a team that deserves to qualify for the next round, in my opinion, Denmark escape tonight is quite dramatic, because before the last game of Grub B began, many predicted that Denmark trip to the euro this year would end soon, but tonight the Danish team proved that the struggle and effort will never betray the results.

Congrats to Denmark...!

Denmark did not play too bad in their first two matches but they did not even get a point. Before the final day of the group, I thought Denmark will only be able to win it, get 3 points, and wait for a ticket for best third teams. They made a big win and even luckily enough to get the second position and go next directly. Congrat Denmark.

A big surprise for all I thought. With this result, Eriksen should feel very happy even he was out of this Euro.

I am impressed by yesterday's match between Denmark and Russia. Despite the initial advantage of the Russians, the Danes were still very confident. Their lead grew with each passing minute and they played really great in the second half. And that atmosphere at Parken Stadium... impressing. At the moment, Denmark's path in this tournament is leading from hell to heaven.

Yes, there were a lot of spectators or rather of course they were supporters of the home team, so it's no wonder the spirit of the home players continued to burn throughout the match. I only regret that I made a wrong prediction but nevertheless, I am very happy that because of the struggle from the incident in the early matches, Denmark still has a chance to compete in the next phase. Denmark will play Wales in the round of 16 and I believe Denmark still has the strength to win against Wales later.

You're quite disappointed, yet they played and survived. Thus, I'm really happy for Denmark well deserved, A team of true spirit and for Erickson. They are true warriors! First team ever to reach the knockout stages in European Championship trophy but having lost their first two group stage games. Let them go, cause the records being made at the Euro's. Meanwhile I'm waiting next schedule match, particularly Portugal vs France.

yeah, good for Denmark, they played well after all that happened to the team, and deserved to go through into next round
Finland will hardly be within top four third placed teams, and Russia is going home after their performance, if going home is the right way to describe it, since they played all matches at home

will be interesting today as well, Croatia needs a win to pass into next round, as third placed, while Scotland have their chances as well

I think most soccer fans are happy to see Denmark progressing. One of the commentators
last night said "Denmark is everyones second favourite team".

Really happy with The Netherlands, for a second team they really performed well and there seems
to be a good team spirit which is something they lacked in recent years.
