Three draws in the four games that have been played in group C They leave everything open for this last day. All four teams can pass and everyone will have to watch to see what position they can finish after the last 90 minutes of the group. This is how it is right now.
- England: 4 points
- Denmark: 2 points
- Slovenia: 2 points
- Serbia: 1 point
England – Slovenia: a point would give the English a pass
The one with the advantage is England, which knows that At least it will be one of the best third parties thanks to Spain’s victory. Their 1-0 victory against Serbia and draw against Denmark leaves them one point away from confirming their presence as first or second.
This tie could also leave them as group leaders, although they would be at the expense of what Denmark does against Serbia. A victory against Slovenia would leave the Three Lions with 7 points and first place in group C.
England’s rival on this third date will be Slovenia, one of the surprises in this Euro Cup. After Jovic’s painful goal in the 95th minute, which prevented the Slovenian victory on the second round, they now face the most difficult game yet. With 2 points under their belt, they need a victory to certify their place in the eighth place. Instead, a A new tie would leave her at the mercy of waiting to enter the four best third parties.
The third parties of Group A and Group B are already closed, Hungary and Croatia respectively, with 3 and 2 points and a similar goal difference of minus three.
Denmark – Serbia: power-to-power duel with one eye on the other match
From here, the only thing that is clear is that Serbia needs to win. A draw or defeat would automatically leave them out. AND winning might not be enoughsince in the event of a Slovenian victory against England, it would be third in the group and would depend on entering the four best third parties.
For Denmark, a victory against Serbia would mean qualification. Being first or second would depend on England not winning and goal difference or other factors would determine the positions.
A a tie could help them pass too. As second in the group, in which case Slovenia loses or if Denmark’s tie has more goals than Slovenia’s. In the event that the results are the same, other factors such as yellow cards would have to be looked at.
If Slovenia’s tie has more goals than Denmark’s, they will have to wait to see if they enter as one of the best third in the group with 3 points and 0 in goal difference.
Group D: one eliminated, two classified thanks to Spain and another that is at stake
In group D came the first mathematician eliminated; the Polish team. After losing to Austria 3-1, they have no chance of even finishing third. Austria, with three points, is the one most on the line, while the four points from France and the Netherlands put them in the round of 16 at least as third thanks to Spain’s victory over Albania.
- Netherlands: 4 points
- France 4 points
- Austria: 3 points
- Poland: 0 points
France – Poland: first place may be in goals
The main attraction of this match is with a transistor in your hand. The tie between France and the Netherlands could mean that, if both win this third date, the first place is decided by goal difference. The Gauls have an easier match a priori, in which they will seek to score goals to certify group leadership.
In case of other results, France would be in the round of 16 as first or second with a tie, although it would depend on the result of the Netherlands – Austria to determine its position. A defeat could leave the French team in third position, although more calmly. It would only happen if Poland’s victory over France is by a greater goal difference than an eventual victory by Austria against the Netherlands. If the defeat is by the same goal difference, we would have to go to the section of most goals scored, where the Netherlands currently has an advantage (2 to 1).
Netherlands – Austria: many combinations of results
The Netherlands has clearer accounts than Austria. A tie puts them 100% in the round of 16 as first or second and a victory by the same or more goals than an eventual victory by France against Poland would put it as the leader of group D.
Austria also knows 100% that A victory puts him in the round of 16 with 6 pointsand a tie like one of the best third places with 4 points and a goal difference of +1. Only a defeat would complicate the Austrian aspirations, who would go to the tiebreaker for the best third places with 3 points.
