the path for england is right there for the taking to end up facing either germany, spain, portugal, or france, and the netherlands could go to the final 4 and even to the final with their path. shocking how it played out, but it's exciting for a tourney with all the variables. I think it ends like this after the round of 16.

Spain
Germany

Portugal
France

Netherlands
Turkey

England
Italy

I think Austria can get by Turkey. England vs Italy is probably another 0-0 draw that goes to penalty kicks that the English.

They should make the quarters.

 

[Natey]

Yeah, I'm assuming Argentina wins that game.

With Messi, Di Maria and possibly others benched.. it's not a sure thing.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Venezuela-Mexico game is freaking awesome.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Mexico missed a penalty kick, and boy, was it a shit kick. So soft.

1-0 Venezuela going into stoppage time.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

OMG! How is Mexico missing these?!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

This is unbelievable. Lol

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Venezuela beats Mexico, 1-0. Mexico was all over them, and had so many chances, but Venezuela held on.

2 teams have made QF: Argentina & Venezuela.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Mexico and Ecuador game on Sunday will determine who is the 2nd team from that group to go through.

Ecuador has a very decent team. It will be interesting to see what happens in that one.

Mexico is going to drop in world rankings if they don't get through. They're ranked 15th, Venezuela is 54th & Ecuador is 30th.

Canada is currently 48th. Chile 40th. It should be a good match.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Euros take a couple of days off. They're back on Saturday with the start of Group of 16 elimination matches.


Copa America games tonight:

6 p.m.: Panama vs USA

9 p.m.: Uruguay vs Bolivia (right after an attempted military coup at home, too )

 

[Skip Bayless]

Panama beats USA who was down a man, 2-1.

USA's fate in Uruguay's hands lmao.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

USA's fate in Uruguay's hands lmao.

Panama got a red card, too and were called for 19 fouls. US went down really early, though. Weah was an idiot.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Uruguay destroying Bolivia 4-0, which is good news for the US, as that means Uruguay clinches top spot. US plays Uruguay Monday & that's a must win game for them now.

They might be screwed anyway because Panama's next game is against Bolivia. Panama won the head to head.

Austria will go far IMO. It's evident they are on and pumped.
Who knows with Italy they damn near self destructed and probably should have.
I think Switzerland can take them out.

England who knows if Southgate ever gets his personnel right they could be tough but he won't.
Historically his tactics suck as does his penchant for playing non performers and I'm still trying to make sense of his squad selections?
Luke Shaw coming in but hasn't played a competitive game in like 4 months. With no plan B at left back is pure genius.

Yeah, England games have been incredibly boring. Hard to know how they're going to perform now that it's elimination.

I think both Switzerland and Austria can get through to QFs.

Australia never qualified for Euro 2024.

... Hey Argentina was kinda late in the first game too. I can't wait to see him talking to his staff with a walkie talkie

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well, Colombia shut down Costa Rica, 3-0, while Brazil destroyed Paraguay 4-1.

Euros are back tomorrow with Group of 16 elimination games starting.

12 p.m.: Switzerland vs Italy

3 p.m.: Germany vs Denmark


In the Copa, Canada is back in action tomorrow.

8 p.m.: Argentina vs Peru

8 p.m.: Canada vs Chile

Canada needs a win.

Canada needs a draw at the least. A win is not needed. Both Chile and Peru have 1 point, Canada has 3. Hopefully they play to win and not try and sit back

There's still the odd chance that Peru wins and Canada draws. Peru would go through by goal differential?

 

[ArtPeur]

Swiiiiiiisssssss!

**** Italy

 

[atrud66]

#CanMNT matchday!

Incredibly vital match for this program. Getting by a veteran Chile side and getting knockout tournament experience before 2026 would be massive.

Need to be infinitely better against Chile than we were against Peru. Hopefully Koné wakes the f*** up now that he got his transfer to Marseille. But he's not the only one. Team needs to play with a lot more composure in possession and not just give the ball away cheaply.

I'll predict 1-1. Jacob Shaffelburg late equalizer

italy hasn't looked great all tournament. Kind of surprised how much better the swiss were in this game. they have some self reflection to do.

Yeah, they all look like they have summer villas booked in July and need to get out fast. Lol

They've regressed as a football country.
