Good Luck to them ...

The final round of group games begin tonight at 8pm with Group A.
Scotland know they have to win to qualify.
If they win, they will most likely be one of the best third placed teams. They could finish second but would also need Germany to win and there to be a six-goal swing in goal difference between them and Switzerland.
Hungary can also possibly qualify with a win.
Germany will win the group if they avoid defeat to Switzerland. If Switzerland win then they’ll win the group and Germany will be 2nd.

If Scotland win tonight, they will more than likely progress to the Last 16 - even if they don’t finish 2nd.
Four points has been enough in the last two tournaments to secure qualification through the “best 3rd place” route.

Come on Scotland
Sun Jun 23, 2024 7:27 pm
Hope Scots lose so won't hear about them again!
Sun Jun 23, 2024 7:33 pm
Switzerland lead Germany
They’ll win the group as it stands
Sun Jun 23, 2024 7:46 pm
HT SCORES:
Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Switzerland 1-0 Germany
Switzerland winning the group as it stands with Germany 2nd.
Scotland would be 3rd with two points - probably not enough.

Think Hungary will do them on break as Scots need to come out and attack Hungary better at counter attack than them.
Sun Jun 23, 2024 8:24 pm
A lot of fannying around at the back bit like cardiff get to the halfway line check and recycle backwards
What happened to taking a player on running with the ball
passing the game to death.

Big delay in play as Varga for Hungary picked up a really bad looking injury.
Hope he’s alright.
Sun Jun 23, 2024 8:40 pm
Not a penalty player initiated contact plus he grabbed opponents shirt 50/50
Sun Jun 23, 2024 8:45 pm
Scotland playing like they need a draw, awful performance so far.
Sun Jun 23, 2024 8:48 pm
Two awful teams. Really bad

Germany have won the group after they drew 1-1 with Switzerland
Sun Jun 23, 2024 8:57 pm

Said Hungary better at counter attack.... but they deserved the win overall
Sun Jun 23, 2024 9:02 pm
Germany win the group, they will play 2nd place in England’s group
Switzerland will play 2nd place in the Spain/Italy group
Hungary will have to wait to see if they qualify, they finish on three points
Sun Jun 23, 2024 9:02 pm
Scotland got exactly what they deserved after that awful turgid performance & should reimburse every traveling supporter of theirs. They spent more time going backwards & sideways than forward for 89 minutes, reminded me of CCFC.
The British teams have both been shit so far.

I’m gutted for Scotland’s fans, they’ve been brilliant in this tournament.
But their team didn’t turn up so got themselves to blame.
Probably should have had a penalty but they never threatened the Hungary goalkeeper otherwise apart from the last couple of minutes before the goal.

Did you not see player practically stop put his leg in front of defender That is instigating contact something they are trying to stop in England? Plus Scots player pulled defenders shirt so making him collapse hence knee contact Like said 50/50 unless your Scottish... so if gives it its OK but same if didn't

Monty, i could be wrong but i don't think Bulut can change his playing style. Nothing he's done so far suggests he can be more attacking and fluid.
I don't think it was a penalty, the Scottish playing initiated contact in an attempt to win a pen. I wanted Scotland to win but they were quite awful. That Sarbozlai is some player.

As pointed out Scots didn't lose out because of the penalty decision lost out because of inept performance by players and manager? No attacking intent from start and then took until 75th min to use subs! When a win was only result possible to qualify to next round.

Group B tonight, with both Albania v Spain and Croatia v Italy kicking off at 8pm.
Spain have already won the group.
Italy will join them in 2nd if they avoid defeat to Croatia.
If Croatia beat Italy then they will be 2nd - unless Albania beat Spain, in which case Albania would be 2nd.
In terms of a best third place finish, Italy will be on three points even if they lose so could progress.
A draw is no good for either Albania or Croatia as they are both on one point.

Based on comments made regarding the Scotland game, think I made the right choice watching the Germany match. A fabulous game and the Swiss, who were superb on the night came within a minute of winning the group and gaining a first competitive win over the Germans since the 1930's !

Without doubt the 2 best teams went throughfrom that group.
Scotland reminded me of us. They had their chances but no real strikers to put the ball away.

HT:
Albania 0-1 Spain
Croatia 0-0 Italy
Looking like it’s the end for Albania.
Croatia need to find a goal.
