Euro 2020 : Group C (Austria, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Ukraine)

France probably clear favorites but If they don't win it then I think it could well be one of the lesser fancied teams. Wales have a chance, maybe Netherlands, or even England if Grealish plays.

There are more teams in the Euros this time round, and they’re all teams who otherwise wouldn’t have been good enough to qualify.

was the same amount of teams in 2016

Still explains the apparent poorer teams than tournaments in the past. Not to mention it’s something someone says at every single tournament ever.

i dont think they are that bad, in 2016 Iceland beat England, Hungary drew with Portugal, Ireland beat Italy and Northern Ireland qualified for knockout rounds as well

even this tournament the worst teams coming in were probably Slovakia, North Macedonia, Wales, Finland, Hungary and Scotland, all except Scotland and Hungary have done well so far and Hungary got a shit group

I agree, it’s fine. Only really Sweden have embarrassed themselves. Switzerland and Austria look toothless but it’s no different to other tournaments

I think the only embarrassing team so far has been Turkey, tipped by a lot of journalists as dark horses

Hate the 3rd place going through...would 4 groups of 6 not work better and just have top 2 going through to quarter finals.

Would actually only add one more game for each team to tournament so just start a few more days earlier.

Ideally just go back to 16 teams as that worked perfectly but that simply won't happen.

potentially a lot of dead rubber games, the 3 going through makes a lot of groups still open going into the last game

England have a better chance than Wales even if Grealish doesn’t play.

North Macedonia have been a great competitor, despite most likely losing all three games. A lot of heart and some great attacking play. They have been quite unlucky and if they had a better defence they'd have probably got a few points.
