How many times did the Swiss and the Dutch combine to hit the post? And yeah, those last 10 minutes were wild.

My post-group stage Euro 2022 teams revue:

England
The best team in group stages, it's coming home etc. Still have a potential for serious drama in them, like maybe losing to Spain in the quarters.

Austria
Really solid defense-wise. Zadrazil and Feiersinger both looked tired though.

Norway
:lol: :laffo: :lmao:

N Ireland
Not bad at all, especially considering half of the squad is semi-professional. Would be 3rd in a different group I reckon.

Germany
All rounders. Didn't hit the highs of England but also look more likely to grind out a result in a difficult match.

Spain
Very uneven. Lots of possession as usual but also some bad defending.

Denmark
Took me a while to realise that Harder was on the pitch in all of their matches.

Finland
Don't remember anything about them.

Sweden
No frills, no fireworks just get things done kinda team. Got better with each match.

Netherlands
Same point tally as Sweden but were rather unconvincing, especially after Miedema came down with Covid.

Switzerland
As usual with the Swiss in football, completely unpredictable. Watching them was fun.

Portugal
Didn't expect much of them but Jéssica Silva was fantastic.

France
Might also win this just with sheer squad strength alone.

Belgium
Don't remember them that much tbh

Iceland
Fought to the end. Another fun to watch team.

Italy
See Norway.

I'll believe France aren't the favorites when they lose. They're too good to discount before then.

They're just not finding ways to evade the pressure. Might need to have a big rethink at half time.

Oh what fun it is to see the Harriers win away!

Beginning to lose count of how many times an England player has lost the ball as there's no-one around looking to receive a pass
