EURO 2024 GROUP D AND THE AUSTRIAN SUCCESS STORY


        Group D of the Euros was an interesting one; it consisted of Austria, cometition favorites France, 
The Netherlands with Liverpool's incredible centre-back Virgil van Dijk and Robert Lewadowski's Poland. Suprisingly, Austria topped the group with two wins and a 2-1 loss to France. Second in the group came France who had a slow start with two draws and a win against Austria, hence achieving a five-point margin. Third in the group but eligible for qualification were the Netherlands who won against Poland, drew with France and lost to Austria. Last in the group came Poland, who only managed to draw a game with France. It seems like something great is to come from the Austrian National Team this time around.

Euro 2024 Group A action

  EURO 2024 GROUP A ACTION       After 14 days of pure footbal, the group stage phase of the Euro 2024 competition is finally complete. So, here are the final results which have had many upsets: GROUP A :      Also known as the "Group of Death" was perhaps the tightest of all groups. Competion favourites Germany topped the group with 7 points (with wins against Scotland and Hungary and a last-minute draw against Switzerland). Second in the group was the underdog of the competion. It was Yakin's Switzerland with a 5 point margin after a great performance when facing Germany and  decent games against the other members of the group. The third place spot was claimed by the Hungarian national team who got three points in the group. But those points were inadequate as Hungary did not advance to the last 16. Last, but not least, Scotland finished last in the Group after a terrible presence in the group, getting only one point in a draw with Swi...

Euro 2024's Group E and all the craze around it

  EURO 2024'S GROUP E AND ALL THE CRAZE AROUND IT          Group E in the Euros was undoubtably the most confusing of the six groups; from Romelu Lukaku's "VAR curse" to the standings themselves. All four teams accumulated four points  (a win, a draw and a loss) so the qualification was decided by goal difference. Top of the group came Romania after a 3-0 win against Ukraine which sealed the +1 Goal Difference mark. The same can be said for Belgium who also had a +1 Goal Difference but finished second due to a lack in goals scored compared to Romania's incredible 4 goals scored. Third, but also eligible for qualification was Slovakia with a goal difference of zero. Despite accumulating four points, Ukraine finished last because their goal difference was in the negatiges (-1 to be exact). It was indeed an unlucky run for Ukraine...
