My body is ready!

First game is today, France vs Romania.

Overall, I'm hoping for a fun Euros and maybe a few upsets here and there!

I'm not rooting for anyone in particular, but I'd love to see an underdog win it all like Greece did in 2004.

With all that being said, let's go!!!





Inb4 England fans are disappointed yet again.

So long as Woy's the manager, that's pretty much a given.

Saying it first, France are going to win 2-1 in the final against Spain. Pretty sure that this will be the result as long as there are no upsets.

Im betting for Spain, cause you know they're the best in Europe probably.
Or Ireland just since I love there.

No one is giving much of a thought to Italy.
So they'll probably reach the final as per tradition.

I reckon Italy and England are in the same boat, decent teams but not good enough to win the tournament.

F*cking hypeeeeee

France vs Spain does look like the most likely final to happen since Germanny and France are in the same part of the bracket if they both get 1st in their group
But Spain could also get second in their group with Croatia in it.

If Belgium gets first place in their group, they'll most likely play Germany in quarters and France in semi's. So it's going to be a hard roard if we want to reach finals wich I wouldn't bet on, but you never know.

France and Belgium, these two will go a long way. Both team has quality players and match-winners who can turn the table at any moment, not to say they have good backup players too.

Spain hasn't been the best in Europe for a few years. Their style is hilariously outdated. Spanish clubs are the best in Europe, but Spain themselves are several steps below the best.

I'd say England does have a good enough team to win the tournament. Problem is, they've got a ridiculously incompetent manager, so they're probably gonna struggle to get out of the group.

Despite my little jab at England in the OP...if I were to root for any team....it'd be them.

If only because I watch the Premier league and I know a lot of their players.

And quite frankly, I feel bad for them....

England vs. Russia should be fun....
