If it ends up being a France England final I would boycott football and leave the forum.
Portugal had their reasons to play the way they did in 2016 bcz they had shit attacking options, fucking Eder. France has no justification
Why are you comparing them to England ? no one says England are better or equal, compare to Spain or even France which are Germany's equal on the continent which is the whole point
Netherlands lost all three games at that Euros and were off color like Germany was in 2021 that you keep bringing all the time whenever England's win against them is brought up. And Portugal have only beaten Germany once in 2000 despite playing them so often, Germany is their kryptonite so let's just forget them
Penalties are officially counted as draws fyi win on penalties is never satisfying for any side.
1. Adopted also means the team you support you single cell amoeba brain
2. Which is the whole point. When it comes to teams that are equally good Germany don't really have that great of a record lately and should've won more over the years
Speaking of valid criticism. DDW's adopted country's performance on occasions they were not favorites in over the years so Brazil France 2014 etc doesn't count
Spain 2008 L
Spain 2010 L
Spain 2022 D
Spain 2024 L
Italy 2006 L
Italy 2012 L
Italy 2016 penalties (arguably they were favorites)
France 2016 L
France 2021 D
Argentina 2006 penalties
Argentina 2010 W
Argentina 2014 W
Agree with the English members. Plenty of examples given of teams playing unsavory football but eventually winning and people only remember them winning not how they played. England are just scrutinized more, rightfully so bcz of the media attention they draw upon themselves 'ah muh best league in z world'
