Prso's headband 34,987 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hope Lukaku gets another couple tomorrow to go clear of the others. Really need Belgium and Italy to avoid each other until the final. Hopefully Lukaku on 7 or so goals by then and Italy lift the trophy.  ForeverAndEver and real boydie9 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to work with Croats and Serbs over here and they never ever spoke to one another and whenever they played one another at Football over here it always ended up in a donnybrook with police cars being called.

CR3 12,618 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 4 minutes ago, Rangers_no1 said: If they both top their groups they meet in the SFs. Due to the shocking format it's actually more beneficial to finish second in Group A. Winners of Group A are likely to play Belgium in QFs then the winners of Group F France/Portugal in the SF. If Holland finish 2nd they meet Group A winners in last 16. Could be Holland, Belgium then France to reach the final. Runners up will play either Denmark/Finland or Russia in last 16, likely Holland/Ukraine/Austria in QFs. France v Belgium quite likely then?

JCDBigBear 10,763 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 The Italians have looked really impressive in both their games.  Exciting football and good to watch.  Belgium also looked good. Portugal not too far behind. France also looking sharp.
