The round 2 of the euros is over and we have learnt some interesting things too. So the headlines in detailed form :

1. Scotland isn’t going down easily :

In their first tournament in a long time , it looked as if Scotland was going down easily with them losing their first match against Czech Republic but they showed why they were called the tartan army against England . They played England and made attempts more than a sluggish English team. England was lucky to get out of the match with a draw thanks to goal line clearances from James and good saving from Jordan Pickford

2. Group of death gets kicking :

With Germany losing their match against France and playing Portugal next , it was a loss to Portugal and go home affair for Germany but they kept their resolve and played well to beat Portugal 4-2 and France were made to frustrate with a draw again Hungary . Now France has to see Portugal through to reach the knock out stages . As much as it looks that Hungary would be an easy pick for Germany to win , we have seen them frustrate France and Portugal let’s hope it’s a German show that day tho

3. Everyone should watch out for Belgium :

Belgium is defiantly one of the favorites to win the tournament but the odds got bigger for them too . They had played without de Bruyne in the first match and won but against a Denmark team that had lost their first match and was keen to get their Euros kicking they need his introduction in the match to give them a win against Denmark . Hazard got some minutes too. With a deadly Lukaku , a creative De Bruyne and a high level Hazard which I expect to see before the tournament run out let’s not be shocked with them winning it

4. Croatia need to get their 2018 magic back :

For a small country like Croatia reaching the World Cup finals was a dream come true . Since reaching the 2018 finals they have been a shadow of their old self with lethargic performances and not conceding chances , the team has to work hard and fast to survive this Euros. They lost to England in their first match and scrapped a draw against Czech Republic. It is a do or die affair with a sturborn Scotland team . Only if they play extremely well and better than they have been playing since would they pass the Scottish hurdle tho .

5. Spain needs to do better or go home :

Another lethargic draw for Spain keeps daunting their hope of reaching the knockout stage with two back to back draw , they need to get their shit together . Morata scored in the 1-1 draw with Poland but Moreno missed a very important penalty . They need to step up or go home tho
