So I don't think anyone has to be concerned about that. The main problem with the format was two fold: first, some geographically outlying venues (mostly Azerbaijan) were selected which complicated things (I know, $/€) Second, more important problem: the group stage+ round of 16 pairs should have been established that teams go to the geographically closest venue (additional issue was that UEFA wanted every team which qualified directly to play all their group stage matches at home) BTW, Considering COVID-19, the tournament went on surprisingly smoothly. The people can write whatever they want including things I don’t like to see, there is an admin who will interfere if needed. I did not see this type of comments before from you( maybe I am wrong) only when it started to be against Hungary ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prso1000 539 Posted July 4, 2021 #2052 Share Posted July 4, 2021 This euro was definitely not fair, but I guess in few weeks no one will remember. The teams who has to travel were in a big disadvantage. i hope Denmark will win it. Or Spain, I could accept Italy, but praying it is not England. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepharoah 2,287 Posted July 4, 2021 #2055 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Really interesting to see that England is the only team left that hasn't won the Euro and on the same day the least team many people want to win despite the fact that people always want new faces to win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perisic missed a match and....that's about it I think? Surprisingly smooth indeed, excellent!

It's rare for me but I'll be happy with any of those four winning. Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
