Euro2020 Knock Out Rounds

[MikeH72]

I cant believe England have been asked to play this game in Rome. If they win the tourmant they'll have done it the hard way, having only played 6 of the 7 games they played at Wembley.

Yes that’s correct, because home advantage is so famously important for winning international tournaments. Such as France in 2016, and Brazil in 2014, and Portugal in 2004, Germany in 2006... hang on a minute.

Oh that’s right. France in 1998 was the last time a host nation won the Euros or World Cup.

Has Schick already signed for the RS?

Cause Tyldesley is blowing smoke up his hoop.

Both these sides having midfielders make runs into the box. The anti evertons

In this multi nation tournament, teams having significant less travelling do have an advantage imo.

Someone should tell Germany and the Netherlands then.

It’s been a bit of a culture shock to see actual good teams

These 2 have wide open defences, looking forward to the semi!

Less travel definitely helps

Don’t think Wembley itself though is an advantage to the England team, especially with the furor over the kneeling and boos re style of play.

I will say that making the winner of this travel from Baku to London is absolutely bonkers

Was that really necessary?

Mad there was a theory a month back that coming second might of been better

Damsgaard probably my player of the tournament so far.

Having Baku in the final stages at all was a bit cruel on the players although I can understand the politics

If England do go all the way I reckon Sterling might actually win it

It’s solely political
