Michael 1,117 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 16 minutes ago, Tommy said: Yea, that was an awful campaign from Germany. Yeah, disappointing from Germany, as England won comfortably in the end. But with only one point gained, the defending champions bow out early. The France national team looked stacked with quality, they along with England, Ukraine and Spain look the strongest of the remaining teams. Although Italy can't be ruled out as a tough opponent, even thought they haven't qualified for the next round yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael 1,117 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Quarter Finals: Well, what a a great result it was for Ukraine, as they defeated France 3-1. Lyon's Rayan Cherki gave France the lead in the 19th minute, as he controlled the ball in the penalty area and took a left footed shot that saw the ball nestle into corner of the net. Sudakov equalised for Ukraine in the 32nd minute, as his well taken penalty, accurately found the bottom hand corner of the net, sending the French keeper Chevalier the wrong way in the process. Sudakov scored a 2nd goal to give Ukraine the lead just before half-time. Mudryk started the move, as pinged a lovely through ball to Sudakov, who beat the off-side trap, then went on a silky run, rounded the French keeper Chevalier and slotted the ball home into the net. In the second-half, Bondarenko sealed the win for Ukraine in the 86th minute. Bondarenko made a run in the righ hand side of the area, he skipped past France's Lyon defender Lukeba and then Bondarenko chipped the ball over the advancing French keeper Chevalier and found the back of the net. The Ukrainians will take a lot of confidence from this win over France, as they faced a French side stacked with talent. Final score: France 1-3 Ukraine In the other quarter final match, England took the lead in the 34th minute through a goal by Anthony Gordon. Gibbs-White managed to put in a cross from the right flank and his cross found Gordon in space and he found no trouble finding the back of the net with his finish. England held on to their lead and advanced to the semi-finals. Final score: England 1-0 Portugal In earlier matches Spain defeated Switzerland 2-1. Sergio Gomez gave Spain the lead, as Gomez slotted home Abel Ruiz's pass pack and found the bottom hand corner of the net at the near post. But in the 91st minute of injury time, Switzerland found an equaliser, as von Moos put Amdouni through on goal in the area and he managed to slot the ball home past the onrushing Spanish keeper Tenas. However, Spain re-took the lead in the 103rd minute of extra time, as Juan Miranda's long range shot from outside the area, took a deflection off of Swiss defender Blum and found the back of the Swiss net. It was a well deserved win for Spain, as they were the much more dominant side throughout the match. Final score: Spain 2-1 Switzerland Hosts Georgia were unlucky to be knocked out on penalties by Israel in another quarter final. However, after the match remained goal-less for more than 120 minutes, penalties was the only way to separate the sides and it was the Israelis who delivered in the penalty shoot-out. Final score: Georgia 0-0 Israel (Israel win 3-4 on penalties) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,206 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Angel Gomes and Curtis Jones are such a good base, Gomes is really solid defensively, reads the game around him, knows when to drop into the back line, his tackles always seem to land and he is agile on the ball and can find a man between the lines. Jones is just playing men against boys, looks so composed and is rarely outfought physically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
