why? ukraine were already incredibly lucky to get past sweden, who aren't exactly worldbeaters themselves. i mean sure, you should never underestimate a team, but imo england were massive favourites in this, as they will be against denmark.

Because this is tournament football, not friendlies. See previous results at tournaments for details. "massive favourites" means little. :rolleyes:

yeah they lined up very negatively from the get-go. was surprised it was 1-0 at HT only but england poured it on early 2nd half

some good storylines for the semis. denmark rallying behind eriksen, italy revival after missing the 2018 wc, spain back in business, and will it finally come home for england.

well, it's extraordinary circumstances, so i don't consider it a "scandal".

i'm more concerned about (covid) security measures with 60k fans tbh. we've seen in hungary how all the protocols (masks, test controls) weren't worth the paper they were written on, and with the delta variant running rampant in england, it's probably a good thing not too many foreign fans will make their way into wembley and then back into the EU...
