Portugal the better team, but that happens sometimes

Ugly wins are still wins, but if De Bruyne and Hazard are out for Italy then Belgium are pretty much screwed.

Always good to see Pepe get eliminated, but Belgium are one very unconvincing team for being ranked #1.

He’ll break the record for sure. He’ll get it in Nations League, friendly or qualifying.
I think it’s settled who the GOAT is.

Surprised that Czechia and Ukraine are still in.

Perisic is out with the rona and the betting odds took a nose dive.
Still hoping beyond hope. No one wants to watch boring Spain lift another trophy.

I mean calling Spain boring seems off, they'd be the highest scoring team in the tournament if their finishing wasn't completely abject. Case in point with Koke right there.
Edit: And then that happens lol. Match fixing alert...

This version of Spain is actually a lot faster.

Own Goal rears its ugly head once again.

This? I dont think I've seen anything this bad since....which England goalkeeper was it who swung at the ball and it hopped over his foot and in?
I get that the ball was hopping a little, but basic ball skills and that is no problem.

Wow, that was a complete fire-drill in Croatia's box.

And yet I was still expecting Spain to somehow not score there. Even when they do score it doesn't look great.

Obviously I’m biased, but the Spanish diving is getting so annoying.
Croatia badly outplayed and that goal against was such a tire fire. The keeper almost got it though haha.

Spain just has a huge problem finishing. Hope Croatia is able to find a little bit of magic in the second half.

own goals are really up. There were 12 in the world cup and now 9 here.

This one by the Haiti keeper against the Canadians from a couple of weeks ago is pretty bad.
