Football analyst Chris Sutton of Sport predicted correctly for seven of the first 12 group matches, but he was taken off guard by Slovakia’s unexpected victory over Belgium and failed to predict Romania’s victory over Ukraine.
Still, you didn’t fare much better.
Just 16% of you, out of nearly 50,000 votes, predicted Romania would win, and just 4% supported Slovakia, despite the fact that you correctly predicted the outcome in eight games.
Can Chris and you perform better the next time? The second round of group matches, which pits Scotland against Switzerland and England against Denmark, are up for you to predict.
Sutton is also selecting which of the six groups he believes should come first.
He predicts that France will win the European Championship, that they will defeat England in the semifinals, and that Scotland will not advance from their group.
What a promising beginning for Germany, but it’s still incredible how quickly their fans’ attitudes have shifted.
They entered the tournament with a lot of people doubting their chances, but after a strong victory over Scotland, they suddenly looked like the favorites.
Even though they were quite excellent, I don’t think it’s as easy as that, even though it should undoubtedly boost their confidence and increase national belief.
Hungary, on the other hand, had a poor start to their loss against Switzerland. There is pressure on them, as they genuinely.
