Belgium vs Slovakia

Belgium XI: Casteels; Castagne, Faes, Debast, Carrasco; De Bruyne, Mangala, Onana, Doku; Trossard, Lukaku.

Slovakia XI: Dúbravka; Pekarík, Vavro, Skriniar, Hancko; Kucka, Lobotka, Duda; Schranz, Bozeník, Haraslín.

Slovakia are leading with a goal scored by Ivan Schranz, this group E is given me a shock, I hope is not what am thinking let wait till the end.

Belgium are really having a hard time to equalize this game, they've already had two goals disallowed, the last one that was disallowed was the most painful, as Lukaku was able to score from the 18 yard box.
However no one will expect this kind of result from Belgium, I believe even the Slovakia fans are still in disbelieve, because they weren't expecting to win Belgium.
For the two games that have been played so far, the underdogs are really taking on the big guys unaware, earlier it was Romania beating Ukraine 3-0, now we have Slovakia winning almighty Belgium 1-0 in their first group encounter, gamblers are really going to feel the brunt of this result.
Belgium and Lukaku are really very unfortunate and it's hard to believe. Two Belgian goals were always disallowed which forced them to swallow the bitter pill. Slovakia really welcomed this quite important victory and it was good capital for them. Indeed, the Euro drama looks like it will continue and make this tournament always get more attention.

Next we will wait for the Belgium vs Slovakia match, on paper Belgium is clearly the favorite even the sportsbook only offers odds of 1.5 for Belgium and I see Belgium will play at full strength I mean all the mainstay players are in the lineup. Will Belgium beat Slovakia by 2 goals or more? I'd like to say it's easy money but there's no guarantee it will work out well.
Belgium will have De Bruyne and Lukaku for this match and this Euro can be a last chance for these players belong to a golden generation of Belgium to find an international title. Eden Hazard already retired as a player months ago and some old players left like Lukaku and De Bruyne will lead young players like Doku to find a title for their national team. Lukaku might play some more seasons at highest level but De Bruyne will less likely continue with Manchester City and his next destination is unknown.

Slovakia is weaker than Belgium and if no sudden bad performance from Belgium, they will get 3 points from Slovakia.
Two dangerous players in one team. Belgium will win the match and they will score lots of goals to keep the GD a bit high in the league table. Doku is also a good player and dont forget they still have Trossard of Arsenal which is also a dangerous player in the 18 yard. No doubt that Belgium wont come out successful in this group stage because they have failed to win Slovakia today which is very unlucky for them. They will of course find it very difficult to in other teams as well.

With the presence of KDB, Lukaku and Doku in the frontline I had thought they would give a reply to that early goal from Slovakia before the end HT. Although Belgium has absolutely had some good chances but they are all getting ruined and frustrated by the brilliance of the Slovakian defenders. Coming back to the second half the trio must intensify their campaign against the Slovakian defense to grease  in a goal into behind the net, in any worse result a 1:1 draw could be commended.

Trossard doesn't really believe in Lukaku. KDB also gives more confidence to Doku. Doku played without a clear vision throughout the minutes that was played before being replaced.
Doku's speed is not balanced because it is too forcing yourself to bring your own ball to the Slovakia defense area.
KDB does not get much open space to release a kick. Tielemans should be played from the beginning not Mangala.

Overall up to 90 minutes does not include additional minutes (7 minutes) given, Belgium plays poorly. Although not dominant, Slovakia is far more disciplined than Belgium.

A surprise occurred, Ukraine, which was previously predicted to win the match, was defeated by Romania with a score of 3-0, it was useless for them to dominate the match with ball possession reaching 72%. Romania played more effectively, they were able to convert chances very well, even though we realized that on paper Ukraine was the favourite. Ukraine defense line looked very porous, their goalkeeper was also very unreliable, they failed to anticipate the counter-attack created by the Romanian players. I think the two goals from outside the penalty box were very beautiful, Mudryk couldn't do much to help his team this time. It looks like Romania will be the surprise team in Group E, because Belgium in the end also lost surprisingly to Slovakia with a score of 0-1.

Yo, this is an interesting bet and I'm going to be in on it.

Seeing the condition of the opponent, especially Mbappe, who is still very good and the belief that France will win this match, I think x3.50 is a very decent odds.

This time France is very favored, Austria is not a new name but with the difference in strength I am quite sure that in this match France will win by 2.5 goals. With the odds that Mbappe scored a goal, of course it would be a shame if he just let him go Grin

For another match at the moment, Belgium against Slovakia will also be quite interesting, but it's a little difficult for me to feel confident because even though Belgium's strength in terms of players is quite good, in the end their teamwork is also questionable.

Now the match is almost over and Belgium is still struggling to equalize the score. This is quite outrageous.

Belgium 0 : 1 Slovakia (HT)

The first half result between Belgium vs Slovakia was an unsurprising result. Without Courtois, he would not be able to withstand the opponent's attacks. The risk of not calling Courtois in the first place was already a big mistake for them. Initially looking at group E, it was assumed that Belgium would qualify easily, but in my opinion it was the opposite, Romania, Ukraine and Slovakia had surprises that Belgium would definitely not easily overcome.
Doku, De Bruyne and Lukaku on the front line are quite ideal because the combined attack pillars of these three players can be very effective, but it comes back to whether these three players can find a match with each other to break through the opponent's goal. In the second half Belgium should have been able to catch up, 1 goal could still be achieved and Slovakia appeared more aggressive to secure the score.
Slovakia isn't a weak side that we would have expected the Belgium side to dominate the game and not conceive an early goal if it were to be that courtois was in the goalie. The early leaf by Slovakia was an opportunity which presented itself and they had to take it. Casteels has made number of saves in the first half particularly that precised  volley kick in the 40th minutes.

It's quite surprising that Belgium hadn't scored to equalize Slovakia up to this moment(88), it is just few minutes to the stoppage time of the second half.
This year's Euro League hosted in Germany will come with surprises that the countries we bet to win, would end up disappointing us with match defeats. Who could thought of this, Belgium finds it difficult to score a goal against Slovakia after having well well-known classic players like Kelvin De Bruyne, Doku, and Lukaku in their squad of players. It is unbelievable that it's going to end as a defeat for Belgium

I thought in the first match of Group E, Ukraine would easily win against Romania today, but the opposite happened, and Romania won a very comfortable 3-0 victory over Ukraine. I was really impressed with Dragus’ performance for Romania. On the other hand, Stanciu scored one of the best goals so far at EURO 2024. Ukraine’s performance was quite poor; I think they made their first accurate shot in the 76th minute.
Yes, everything is beyond predictions. I think Ukraine can win tonight's game, or at least score one goal. They controlled the game, but did not produce good results. Likewise Belgium, they controlled the game but had few shots on goal. The odds given before the match were actually for Slovakia, and the Handicap +1/1.5. I was lucky enough to have the courage to take it. But it is still involved in many other matches. Lol

I didn't expect Ukraine to win comfortably, but I didn't expect Romania to play so comfortably as well. Romania used their chances very well and didn't concede a goal against the strong Ukrainian forwards. After being winless in the last 2 tournaments, Romania managed to win in the Euros after a long time. Now things are complicated in this group, Ukraine has made its own job very difficult. If Belgium, which is currently behind, loses points to Slovakia, the balance will change dramatically. It will be a very different picture than expected.
Maybe many missed this match because they thought Ukraine would win, this is indeed difficult to guess because in terms of the game Ukraine still controls it's just that they have too much control without having many shots on target.

Belgium are now still behind Slovakia but the situation of this group will not change drastically because there are still many matches left to compete for, well if for example Belgium lose then their hopes of qualifying are still very large as well as Ukraine just that with this defeat many people still do not expect it.

Ukraine Was defeated by Romania this is new, the first 30 minutes Romania were controlling the whole game from their I already noticed that their is no longer hope for Ukraine, nicolea scored the first goal and Dennis man give two assist and it was an e has 0 goals and two shots on target. And in possession Ukraine possessed Romania but still were unable to win. And Romanias player played with more focus compared to Ukraine especially Dragus scoring the third goal and you can not conclude that it was the best goal in Euro 2024 because their are still other games to be played and this are one of the reason why if you are placing bets you will be scared because of situations like this, you have faith in a club and the next thing you get from them is disappointment.

the thing with this kind of tournament is that you don't allow your opponent to score first putting you at a serious disadvantage where you have to literally struggle to bounce back into the game and fight back for your stand. It's the only reason why England won yesterday match cause they scored first and regardless of the fact that they where the better team, they couldn't get a second
goal that would have cemented the win.

With the likes of KDB, lukaku and the magical doku on the front line, it would theoretically have been goals upon goals but you don't play against a team that sees itself as an underdog expecting to see easy result. Lukaku still playing below expectation and has continued to be very inconsistent with his quality of play while doku isn't doing as much magic as is expected of him. A lot of bad decision making from his end and I just hope the team would be able to bring in a totally different show in the second half of the play.

I hope this is not another offset for Slovakia Roll Eyes

The first half favored Slovakia as they are one goal ahead of Belgium; they created more attempts both on goals and off target than the Belgium team, and the Slovakia’s players are not world class players, while the Belgium players are all world class players that have played in several big teams across Europe.

The second half might favor Belgium because losing their first match will not favor them in the competition, they need to win this match because they are my favorite teams in this competition.

In the early minutes of the match Ukraine looked quite convincing with their quite good ball control. But it turned out that Romania was the one who launched the attack first and made Ukraine a little overwhelmed. Romania was very effective in taking advantage of the opportunities they managed to create. But their Ukrainians seem to have work to do in their midfield and attack.

Now I am also quite surprised about the Belgium vs Slovakia match. because Belgium was 1 goal behind. Slovakia managed to score an early goal in the 7th minute. And that was a bad sign for Belgium. but there is still the second half remaining where the result of the match can change quickly.

Easy win for England, they even almost scored the second goal.
Only Vlahovic was "close" to draw the game but the difference between the 2 teams was to big.

Tomorrow will be the time of France and Belgium, 2 big teams will start their adventure.
Should have been an easy win, but you also know that a goal lead is not something to celebrate over till the game is over and I expected England to get more than one goal being that they have a lot of good players both on the bench and on the field but they just had to settle for that 13' goal from Jude Bellingham.
 The annoying part of yesterday's game was that Serbia weren't as challenging as they usually are yet England were content to play defensive football. I won't list England as a team that can pose a threat if we're mentioning teams that will prove difficult in this tournament because for me they are just a decorated set of players with little to nothing to show for it.

England showed ineffective football in their first match at the Euros. After Bellingham scored a goal, the team calmed down and did not build up the lead, although the English could have scored more. In the second half Serbia played much more interesting and they could have equalised, but Pickford did not allow them to do so. England need to change their game before they start playing with the tournament favourites.
You know, when this decorated teams get paired against stronger teams, you tend to see them struggling which is normal because both sides are fighting to dominate the other but against a side like Serbia, I expected Gareth's boys to do better considering they were able to open their goal account early in the game. Many English fans expressed their displeasure at the performance and even they went away with three points, more goals should have come out and the guys to enforce this were benched. The likes of Cole Palmer and even Jarrod was brought in late.
 Personally, I really don't pay much mind to England games because they are often boring and fall below expectations.

The tournament continues in a surprising way in group E.Romania managed to start the group with an unexpected victory by defeating Ukraine 3-0.We watched a Romania that did not dominate the overall match but was effective in the scoring ways.The 3 points they got in this match will be valuable.They are already planning for 2nd place in the group.Belgium closed the first half 1-0 down against Slovakia.Although Slovakia closed the first half ahead with a goal in the 7th minute, I do not expect Belgium to lose this match.Belgium will realize the quality of their squad in the 2nd half. Belgium will realize the quality of their squad in the second half.

II have to agree that Ukraine delivered a dreadful performance. Ukraine spent the entire game by passing the ball. Ukraine has no intention of scoring. It's surprising that Rumania crushed Ukraine with a clean sheet.

Lunin had a horrible performance in that game. I felt fine when Lunin missed Stanciu's shot. The second goal was entirely Lunin's fault because he was not ready to catch the low ball. The third goal happened coz ukraine's defenders were too lazy in blocking the free space for romania's attackers.

Yesterday I was very surprised by England's game, I expected them to be able to comfortably beat an opponent like Serbia, but England only managed to score 1 goal and as they had a good defense, they managed to come out of the game with victory. but this england national team doesn't give me the confidence to consider them as great candidates to win this euro, so far spain and germany have convinced me that they can win this euro and today we will see how france will play against austria, it's not a great opponent, but even so, if France manages to score a lot of goals in this game and not concede many goals, I think that with that they will be showing that they can also win this euro like Spain or Germany, tomorrow we will see Portugal playing against Czechia, also if Portugal winning the game comfortably I will consider them as candidates to win the euro, before these games started, I had already said that Portugal, France, Germany and Spain have a greater chance of winning the euro
