    I was saying the same thing today with my dad. Overall this tournament has been mediocre. They really should have stuck to 16 teams. It's too watered down.

      How can you possibly condone such a decision?

        The first few days/games were filled with crazy moments but as scenarios start to play out it becomes too easy for countries to play for results.

          Spain's kit is hideous.

            I guess I'm missing out... and I should start packing flares with me when I travel?

              Bottom half of the knockout bracket is jam-packed: France, Germany, Spain, Italy, England, possibly Portugal.

              Meanwhile, the top half of the draw is the SS Minnow.

                I'm hoping we'll see some great games in the round of 16 knockout. If so then expansion was worth it. But yeah, right now we've seen a lot of drab games. The lack of creativity and finishing has been pretty sad.

                  Group E scenarios:

                  Italy: clinched 1st; will face Spain in R16

                  Belgium: clinch 2nd with win/draw; only way they don't advance to knockout round is if a.) they lose to Sweden and Ireland beats Italy, or b.) they lose to Sweden by 4+ goals, regardless of Ireland result

                  Sweden: advance to knockout round with win

                  Ireland: advance to knockout round with win

                  Group F scenarios:

                  Hungary: guaranteed to advance to knockout round; clinch 1st with win; draw and Iceland win means tiebreakers come into effect

                  Iceland: advance to knockout round with win/draw; can possibly clinch 1st with win and either Hungary/Portugal draw or Portugal win, depending on tiebreakers

                  Portugal: advance to knockout round with win/draw; clinch 1st with win and Iceland draw/loss; can possibly clinch 1st with win and Iceland win, depending on tiebreakers

                  Austria: advance to knockout round with win

                    Slovakia: advanced to knockout round

                    Northern Ireland: advanced to knockout round

                    Turkey: advance to knockout round with a.) Sweden draw/loss and Ireland draw/loss, or b.) Sweden win by 4+ goals and Ireland draw/loss, or c.) Portugal loss

                    Albania: advance to knockout round with a.) Sweden draw/loss and Ireland draw/loss and Portugal loss, or b.) Sweden win by 4+ goals and Ireland draw/loss and Portugal loss

                      Italy wins their group and has to play Spain, I'd be pissed if I was Italian.

                        One of the two going home right away in the knockouts. Fine by me!

                          I'm petitioning Steve and Millennium to find a way to let me like this twice.

                            Think it will probably be Spain going home but you never know. Road to the finals on that side of the bracket is pretty crazy, Italy/Spain/France/Germany all on the same side.

                              I really like Croatia, I think they have the potential to go all the way. Ivan Perisic is some player.
