June 27, 20241 yr Think either of those could beat England the way yous are playing but both aren’t great!
June 27, 20241 yr For the last 16, did you all want individual threads for each match? Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Shame we're heading into a couple of rest days. Although always a sign the tournament is getting to the important stages. Games I'm most looking forward to are Germany v Denmark / France v Belgium and Switzerland v Italy; they should all be crackers. Not sure I'm 'looking forward' to England v Slovakia but will of course watch it on Sunday.
June 27, 20241 yr Author Yeh Mack I would prefer individual threads! All right, thanks all, I'll go and do that for you all, :)
June 28, 20241 yr would much rather have Italy in the quarters than Switzerland! my biggest concern would be a semi final against Austria
July 2, 20241 yr I would expect him to play at the 2026 World Cup if Portugal qualify but after that surely even someone like him would decide to call it a day rather than playing at Euro 2028 as a 43 year old.
July 8, 20241 yr Can someone tell me how many hat-tricks have been scored in the Euros before? Is it a rarity?
July 8, 20241 yr Off the top of my head yes, I've watched them since 2004 and can only recall David Villa in 2008.
July 8, 20241 yr Author Can someone tell me how many hat-tricks have been scored in the Euros before? Is it a rarity? To answer your question in regards to Euros hat-tricks, there have been eight in total which were: 1. Dieter Muller (West Germany) [Euro 1976 Semi-Finals] Against Yugoslavia 2. Klaus Allofs (West Germany) [Euro 1980 Group Stage] Against Netherlands 3. Michel Platini (France) [Euro 1984 Group Stage] Against Belgium 4. Michel Platini (France) [Euro 1984 Group Stage] Against Yugoslavia 5. Marco van Basten (Netherlands) [Euro 1988 Group Stage] Against England 6. Sergio Conceicao (Portugal) [Euro 2000 Group Stage] Against Germany 7. Patrick Kluivert (Netherlands) [Euro 2000 Quarter-Finals] Against Yugoslavia 8. David Villa (Spain) [Euro 2008 Group Stage] Against Russia
July 11, 20241 yr UK will be at a disadvantage, aside from the disadvantage of Spain just being better, bwcause they played last night. Less rest and prep time for the final
July 11, 20241 yr I still find it mad that the record UK viewership is 32m for the 1966 world final. 32m! In 1966! Nothing has ever come close to breaking that apart from Diana's funeral.
July 11, 20241 yr That’s huge like isn’t it? 30m on Sunday? Yeah it massive, although not as massive as the ratings for the last euros. High 20s - I reckon - down a bit on the home soil Euro final.
July 12, 20241 yr I still find it mad that the record UK viewership is 32m for the 1966 world final. 32m! In 1966! Nothing has ever come close to breaking that apart from Diana's funeral. Yeh and less people had tvs back then!
