Euro 24 Watch (Group Stage)

[Robbie]

Half time

Portugal 0 Czechia 0

This match needs a goal.

 

[menzinho]

Sounds like I missed the game of the day between Turkey and Georgia, this game isn't the best. Czechia are definitely happy for this to finish 0-0. Portugal aren't short of attacking options though, I think they'll make some changes if they don't score soon.

[Robbie]

Portugal have had most of the play but we've seen a great goal for Czechia against the run of play. What a 25 yard screamer.

Portugal 0 Czechia 1: 62 min

Within 5 minutes Portugal equalise with an unfortunate Czechia own goal.

Portugal 1 Czechia 1

[menzinho]

It was a cracking finish to give Czechia the lead, but not surprising that Portugal equalised given their dominance. Interesting they haven't taken Ronaldo though, I think they could benefit from a No.9 who actually tries to get into the 6 yard box more often. Not long to go now, I think this will finish 1-1...

[menzinho]

Well that one isn't getting ruled out for offside! Good job I'm not a betting man! Scored by a player making a run into the 6 yard box... 

[Robbie]

Portugal score in injury time after earlier having a goal ruled out by VAR.

Croatia 0 Albania 0: 3 min gone.

[Robbie]

Albania have gone and done it again, against the run of play headed in from a great cross on the right

Half time

Croatia 0 Albania 1

Albania are well worth their lead & they could have had two further goals on the break, where they are very dangerous.

Croatia are having most of the play but are having difficulty breaking Albania down.

[Robbie]

After incessant pressure for all of the second half, Croatia get their equaliser, then within a couple of minutes, get the lead, by way of a very unfortunate own goal by Albania.

Croatia 2 Albania 1: 76 min

[Robbie]

Albania get a deserved equaliser in injury time due to their great play in the first half.

Another very good entertaining game in Euro 24.

Final score.

Croatia 2 Albania 2

[DangerousSausage]

I had no idea that Klaus Gjasula had made Albania's squad. He used to play for my German team Waldhof Mannheim in the dark days of the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg (fifth level), and he didn't look particularly good at that level either. How he ended up playing in the Bundesliga is one of life's great mysteries. But well done like.

Germany lucky to be ahead. They may get better but I don't see them winning the tournament on what I've seen so far.

I'll probably be proved wrong.

If anyone is wondering what they're playing after Germany's matches, it's this absolute banger of a tune inspired by Space Oddity:

 

 

[OoooooTommy]

It's make or break for Scotland tonight. I don't think a draw will be enough for them to go through. I could be wrong, but I think they will be going home.

[Robbie]

Well here it goes 

Scotland 0 Switzerland 0:  1 min

Scotland need to win tonight. Can they do it?

[Robbie]

Scotland have started well and take the lead.

Scotland 1 Switzerland 0: 13 min

[Robbie]

Scotland pegged back.

A wonder goal from Switzerland, a curling shot into the top left corner of the goal from 25 yds

Scotland 1 Switzerland 1: 27 min

[Robbie]

An open and entertaining game is level at halftime.

Scotland 1 Switzerland 1

[Robbie]

An entertaining game ends in a draw.

Scotland 1 Switzerland 1.

Scotland's final group match is against Hungary.

[JIMBO]

Scotland put up a stronger performance in the game, but unfortunately, it wasn’t sufficient to secure more than a single point. In my opinion, Switzerland played even better, and they deserved a victory. However, the final result remained a draw.
