Lol Norway were humiliated by Austria, although the mistakes are on the defenders, but the medias are talking about Haaland since he's the captain on his team. All the pressure are on him even though he didn't make any mistake.

Austrian should be happy because many of them are playing in Bundesliga, if they were humiliated by Haaland when he was on Dortmund, now they've revenge to destroy Haaland.

Palmer, who rarely got the ball, was better as a CAM instead of RW.

Yeah Palmer should play as attacking midfielder instead of other position, it just wasting his talent if he play on right wing, he's not someone who have a good speed.

The England coach did not experiment in this game; he used a more usual arrangement, and that paid off for him because he was able to win the game in a very convincing manner. Three goals is enough to shut off any critic thinking he is not good enough from their last game.
Greece are focused on remaining top of the table ahead of England, and against Ireland as well, they are leading and could end up winners in this game with the progression of things.

The coach is not a tactical coach, a tactically better coach will definitely outplay that English side he fielded against Finland honestly. He was also with the same traditional British style of playing football of the ball and pn the ball. You'd see his flaw when he Is against a good coach, I will see why they want a coach who is better. Is Thomas Tuchel the right name to mention? Ion think so but he is far better than this current manager. Pep Guadiola remains the name for them ahead of the world cup. Three goals can shut the critics for a short term not long term.

I was a little surprised by the match between Poland vs Portugal, I mean I don't think Poland lost with a score of 1-3 because in my opinion both teams are at the same level but unfortunately Poland can't do much and this is the second defeat for Poland.

Same level? Did you see how Portugal outplayed Poland in midfield? Did you see how they caged Robert Lewandoski and made him look one of these upcoming strikers? They Portugal really pushed Poland to the curb and made sure that they controlled the game. Having both Bruno Fernandes and Bernado Silva in midfield helped dominate the game and they was very direct linking up with Cristiano Ronaldo. I will not forget to also give flowers to both Pedro Neto and Raphael Leao yesterday, they did great I must say ( As they made the wings effective ). I saw the first half of the game but not the second half though.

Portugal dominated with 18 shots (6 on target), 625 passes and 63 percent possession. Poland recorded 12 shots (4 on target), 348 passes and 37 percent possession. The statistics above are very clear, Portugal is superior to Poland in everything. Despite playing at the opponent's home ground. Portugal appeared dominant from the start of the match and pressed the host's defense, they played very disciplined in all lines, especially in the middle area which made Lewandowski have to drop into the middle line to pick up the ball. Overall Portugal played very well in this match, especially Ronaldo who kept scoring goals even though he is already 39 years old.

Finland 1 - 3 England

I must admit that in this game England were very inspired, they played very well, managed to score 3 goals, conceded only 1 goal and had 70% possession of the ball. If they can play like this against very strong opponents, then they could go far in the World Cup. The England national team has a very strong squad, but unfortunately they have not managed to go far in the World Cup. We will see if these Nations League games will serve as a good preparation for England to perform well in the World Cup.

England has never been impressive since God knows when and whenever they play I still don't know what even gives me that assurance that they can do better, that there will be a change in terms of performance but they end up struggling to get at least a goal with so many chances wasted starting from the first half in each games they play. They won against Finland but to me it doesn't prove a thing that they are ready or can do better against bigger countries like Germany, Portugal Spain or even a side like Belgium, no they will underperform and it pains to see the kind of good players they have but their style of play is irritating and their performance is out of this world for their club side but you see them not giving their all for the national team.
All England need is to reduce the call up of some players they feel deserves to be invited, some doesn't, that's the problem and also start players who are serious to uplift the team.

Chll mate, this is only a nation league. But it's quite irritating to see the way England play on this game. They made too many mistakes. Walker had an awful pass. Palmer, who rarely got the ball, was better as a CAM instead of RW. It got a bit better once Medueke subbed in. He is a better fit for RW than Palmer. And the ball is always being flanked to the left side (Grealish). But, overall, they're all look even more competent by playing at their actual positions. At least, a small improvement than when South Gate was there.

It was so interesting to see Greece beating Ireland... I really didn't expect that good of a result on the group stage from Greece.

So Greece has secured a spot in the next round now presumably. But I'm a bit worried about the Greek team's form till matches in the next phase begin. It's likely that after the groups phase, Greece will be matced against an opponent that will be way above the team's ranks and it would be a huge challenge.

At least the draw is later this year, but the matches are next year. So We'll know what chances Greece has based on the draw opponent I guess.

Yes, like it or not, Ronaldo's contribution to the national team is still very good. and he has scored 3 goals so far in this Nations League. and is included in the top scorers in the 2024 UEFA Nations League. And when he plays against Croatia, he will reunite with Modric, but as an opponent. This will be exciting.

Yeah, Ronaldo is indeed an old player but he is excluded like other old players because he still has the ability and can compete with other young players, as you said he always competes in the top scorer list in every competition. We know he wants to give something to his country before he retires. Some of us say he will soon retire in the next 2 years and maybe he has no chance to play in other major tournaments so he must take advantage of the current opportunity. Currently Portugal is at the top of the standings with 3 wins and still has 3 matches to play and also Portugal has no competitors in the group.

He is always total in football, as long as he can, then he will always try optimally, that's what I've seen so far. It's just that, still, as an individual, there must be positive and negative sides, no one can escape from that. And one more thing, it cannot be denied, every goal he scores, there is hard work from other players who always support, as well as in the Portuguese national team.

related to when he will retire, he was once interviewed by the media, and this is what he said, whether it will change or not, it might depend on the conditions at that time.

Ronaldo planned to reach the 1000 goal mark (I remember experts laughing at his 900 goal goal saying it was unrealistic) and it is unachievable in 2 years, so we can suggest that if he has no injuries and everything goes according to plan, he will play for another 3 years. It sounds fantastic, but on the other hand, most of his records are exactly like that, so it will not be surprising if he achieves another one.

Yeah Ronaldo wants to record history before he retires and that is one of the reasons why he always plays aggressive, in this tournament he has scored 3 goals in 3 matches and he will continue to try to score goals until the last match. In the next match Portugal will be against Scotland and this is the second match in this tournament because in the first leg Portugal beat Scotland with a score of 2-1

England got their first win in this international break and it was a win that is most needed, it was a 3-1 win and a deserving one too. After the lost against Greece at home they new coach needed a win to ease the pressure in the camp. He made some changes from the previous line up, saka is back to arsenal camp due to some minor injure so Chelsea Cole palmer was move to the right wing and Bellingham played ahead of Declan Rice and Gomes, jack grealish replace Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane was back in the line up also.

England played with ease as the Finland team couldn't cause them any real problem, Grealish opens the score as he received a checky pass from Gomes and places the ball Calmly, the first half ended in 1-0. The second half started slowly and some subtitions were made, England continue to dominate and where gifted with 2 late goals coming from Declan Rice and Alexander Anorld scoring a superb free kick. Finland got a late goal too and the score line ended in a 3-1 win. It was a one sided game but it wasn't a boring one.

Although the England team won this match, the teams in the attack department are not performing well in finishing. Although the England team is currently second in Group B of the points table, the England team players have worked hard in today's game. England team in today's match 69% football England team in their control and rest it is 31 percent ball in their favor of Finland team.
Although they are very close in attack, their luck is very bad as the Finland team tried hard and couldn't succeed in the end. And most of the gamblers were sure that the England team would win the match today, as the squad of players was much stronger than that of the England team.

It seems Thomas Tuchel is close to taking the job. It will be interesting to see him coach a national team.

Grealish reveals what happened!

“I told Trent Alexander-Arnold before the free kick; I’ll give you 500 quid if you score this, mark my words!”.

“And then he’s gone and slapped it in the top bins”.

It is always a surprising thing to me whenever I see England been defeated because I know them as one of the squad with good players playing across all over Europe, they have quality players that are starters in big teams but their management is not using them well to get the desired result.

For today's game, I know that it will bring more goals because since the first half, I see how aggressive the players were and the coaches set um well with good matured performance by starting Jack Grealish over Foden because Saka was injured, and the match went well and they were able to win the match.
Nevertheless, I think the England squad need a good coach that can be using the players well so that the nation as a whole will always be proud of the players they have.

It was so interesting to see Greece beat England. This has never ever happened before and I can't undestand what went wrong for England. Were they not giving their best?

Greece had asked UEFA to postpone the match due to the unexpected death of George Baldock. I guess for UEFA, you can't even mourn if it's gonna affect their money... Baldock had a career in Britain aside from to coming to play for the Greek national team too. He had ancestry from both countries. But in any case, Greece managed to win.

And I thought Greece was in a tough group because Ireland and England especially aren't bad teams and certainly have more tradition in football than Greece. And yet, here we are having Greece first in the group. Makes me think maybe the countries big in football may not be taking Nations League as seriously.

In general, Nations League isn't most exciting thing to watch. But today we don't have A division games, and most of games in Bc or C league today is so difficult to watch, don't even know why I'm doing it. Most of games there is low scoring, without much action.
Only want to mention Gibraltar goalkeeper saving penalty on last minute, saving his team from loss.

I can't watch these games, I prefer to just follow the results. Sometimes I think that the coaches look at these games as friendly games.

I am already mostly skeptical about Ronaldo's performances at the top level, but he continues to surprise. Always maximum motivation, always works at 100%. Today, in addition to the goal, he made an assist. Poland is really performing worse than it should, and after today's defeat, only Croatia can try to challenge Portugal for first place.

Ronaldo is a player born for football. Even though he is 40 years old, he is still playing exceptionally. Ronaldo is playing an excellent game both for the national team and for the clubs. Cristiano will probably retire from football in a year or two, but it seems like he will continue to play at a high level until he does. He is a phenomenon and we are lucky to watch him live.

Ronaldo planned to reach the 1000 goal mark (I remember experts laughing at his 900 goal goal saying it was unrealistic) and it is unachievable in 2 years, so we can suggest that if he has no injuries and everything goes according to plan, he will play for another 3 years.

Finland vs England

England team will perform most aggressively in this match today, as all the gamblers are already betting more in favor of England team. And according to the squad England team has the most experienced players and they are older players. Harry Kane, Cole Palmer are the two best attacking players, and the defenders are the best. Most of the day in favor of the England team, the result of the football game can turn at any time. So in today's match I have bet on England team and squad England team players will be home team for today's match. And opposite team Finland team is relatively less strong. However, both teams will perform aggressively for this match.

Their aggression has started favoring them because they have already taken the lead in the first twenty minutes of the game. The England squad have some new players added to their regular starting line up, and Jack Grealish who was not a regular starter is able to score the only goal scored so far in the game; I think this match will be like a revenge for England to cover for their defeat against Greece, and Ashley Cole will wants to impress the England squad management because of the rumor going on that they are willing to sign Thomas Tuchel as Garate Southgate's replacement. Nevertheless, trying other players is good because England have one of the best squad in the whole competition but they are not performing well in the competition.

Finland vs England and Austria vs Norway are the best matches of the day. Ralf Ragnick's Austria beat Kazakhstan 4-0 in their last match in the group and moved up to the second place in the group. On the other hand, Norway beat Slovenia 3-0. Haaland scored 2 goals in that match. Sörloth and Haaland are showing very good performances in the last matches. They make Norway the favorite for this match. The two of them give defenders a hard time. I think Norway will win this game and consolidate their lead in the group.

The players in the England team at present are the most interesting because each player has the most experience. England players will perform well and aggressively from the start. Because they already have a squad full of European players. So any time in this match England can create role to score goals.

Because we can see that the England team against Finland already managed to score a goal with a great attack at the beginning of the game. However, in today's match, the good players in the line-up are attacking the field for England and putting the opposition under a lot of pressure. In the 18th minute of the game, Jack Grealish scored a great goal and Angel Gomes scored an assist. I think the England team will definitely beat Finland today because they have been attacking strongly since the first half of the game, so in the second half the England team will attack with more excitement.
