The list of teams who haven't been underwhelming is way shorter than those that have. Although to somewhat defend Belgium they have Lukaku actively working against them, which is tough.

That was a VICIOUS shot from Ukraine! That was struck in anger! Great block!

Let's called a spade a spade, there was a decent initial spark to this tournament, but it's pretty much been ass for the most part.

What's up with all the ties? Hopefully we don't see a bunch of penalties deciding elimination games.

Ukraine should have gone balls out at the end, yet it never happened.

Well....Group E's standings were pretty wild. Not sure I've seen that before.

As much as I'm pulling for Georgia I'll be watching the Czechs and Turks.

One group left to decide everything.

England still wait.

If Hungary get in, England will play Holland, else England will play Slovakia

Hungary gets in if neither Czechia or Georgia win.

If Belgium underwhelms every single tournament maybe it’s actually shame on us for overestimating their abilities? This is who they are

Similar to Croatia they are also just aging out a bit from their Golden Era now.

In 2018 they finished 3rd losing to the eventual winners in France in the Semi-Finals (just like Croatia in their best ever finish.

In Euro 2020 they were 4-0 beating Portugal in the round of 16...but then lost 2-1 to the eventual champions from Italy.

Those two years were their peak and their best shot of winning a major trophy.

Now they are on the downslide with this core.

And the Turks are on the board against 10-man Czechs.

10 men Czechs going for it, they have to, and have equalized.

Shocked the goal stood, usually can't touch the keeper in his 6 yard box.
