I like most of your predictions, but I think France and Wales will take their matches. Denmark is a really good 2nd tier team, Wales let me down a bit. France yeah, but the hate the swiss have for France only rivals our own 😄 And I basically want to see France go down early and hard, They been putting us down, saying we will be eating fries by the quarters. And the press conference after their Hungary game made me want to punch a french dude in the face, ' it was an honour for hungary to play a team like us' wtf who says that lol 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres Fan in NS Posted June 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 The elimation matches start today. In the early match ... Denmark leads Wales 2 - 0 in the 57th minute. I had hoped Wales would pull it off for *reasons*, but this is not a huge upset if the score holds. At 4:00 PM (ADT) we have Italy and Austria. I expect Italy to have little trouble with the Eastern Reich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabres Fan in NS Posted June 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 Denmark is through to the quarter finals in convincing fashion. They will meet Netherlands or Czech Republic up next. They may have a chance against the Czechs, but that would mean that they were to upset Netherlands in the 16 match. I can't see them beating the Netherlands in the quarters.

Sabres Fan in NS Posted June 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 The Italians are a great side, but are often very frustrating for their fans ... Nil - Nil against Austria at the half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denmark with the easy victory as I expected. As for tomorrow come to think of it, I think the dutch get their first real opponent , if they get to confident they will lose easy.
