Now reconstruct how the teams listed above have qualified. In Group A the Czech Republic finished in first place with 22 points, followed by surprising Iceland two points behind. Turkey qualified as the best third. Out incredibly from games the Holland that ended to fourth place. In Group B the Belgium has finished in first place as forecast, followed by Wales. Out the Bosnia of Dzeko eliminated in the playoffs by Ireland. In Group C Spain and Slovakia have prevailed on Ukraine then who qualified to the playoffs by beating Slovenia. In Group D Germany and Poland have given show closing, respectively, to 22 and 21 points. The Poles also had the best attack of all rounds with 33 goals scored in 10 games. In Group E England has redeemed the poor world- cup in Brazil winning all ten matches. Best defense of all the group by the British with just three goals conceded. Switzerland in second place with 21 points. In Group F battle to the end for the first place between Northern Ireland and Romania, with Nordic that had the best, Romanians seconds at one point and never defeated. Hungary, third classificatasi, has centered qualification that was missing for many years by beating the play-offs, the most rated Norway. The stock of the Magyars in recent years has made great strides and the enterprise of the National is one example. In Group G everything easy for Austria who finished at 28 points with no defeat. Russia second, Sweden third, but won the play-offs thanks to a super Ibrahimovic against Denmark. In Group H Italy in first place and never defeated, second the Croatia. Finally in group I first place for Portugal capable of leading in fluency, second historic qualification for Albania capable of putting behind the most quoted Denmark and Serbia. France qualified as host country. |

Group A: France, Albania, Romania, Switzerland Prediction qualified possible. The Group A sees as teams accredited by bookmakers to next round France and Switzerland. More secluded Romania, The France is the super favorite of this group, but also one of the possible candidates to the final victory. "Les Bleus" also strive to continue to be faithful to the tradition that always sees players protagonists when they play at home. With two trophies won in their history (1984 and 2000), in recent European and world tournaments have struggled, going out in the group phase in 2008 and 2010, there was a recovery in 2012 and in World Cup of 2014 when the team went out in the quarterfinals. The statistics, however, see a France almost always present to the Europeans, except in 1988. Deschamps' side will be looking to lead to three on the bulletin board stocks, thus reaching Spain and Germany. Switzerland returns after missing the European Championships of 2012. The best result for the Swiss to a European competition was only the group stage in 1996, 2004 and 2008. In recent years, Switzerland has done some progress compared to the past also coming in Brazil. Classificatasi second behind England, the Petkovic team has all to pass the round. Along with France is therefore the favorite to go through. Romania, together with England, was the only undefeated team in the qualifiers. It came second, so has redeemed the elimination to play-off for a place at the World Cup in Brazil by Greece and the failure to qualify for the last European. The Piturca's team, for the third time at the helm of Romania, will try to advance to the next round searching to equaling the result of 2000 when Hagi and his companions came up to the quarterfinals. Switzerland is to overcome the obstacle, the team that should theoretically aspirate to second place, giving already assumed the first place to France. Albania of Gianni De Biasi debuts for the first time at a European championship thanks to growth began at qualification of the World Cup in Brazil where the national touched the qualification. In Group I, Berisha and his companions came second placing behind most reliable teams like Denmark and Serbia. The meticulous work and experience of De Biasi and his staff have allowed this team to seize a historic achievement and on the wings will try to groped some bang. |

GROUP B.
LOADING......... |
Re: Euro 2016 Thread here by Princepoint(m): 11:45pm On May 31, 2016 |
Group C: Germany, Ukraine, Northern Ireland, Poland Prediction qualified possible. In Group C Germany and Poland, according to the bookmakers, are the favorites to go through, but particular attention should be given to Ukraine. Germany and Poland meet again as it did in the qualifying round. No opportunity is given to Northern Ireland. The great favorite of these Europeans is Germany winning the World Cup in Brazil. In group C the Low team should have no problem winning. Always considered one of the strongest national, he has lifted the trophy in three circumstances in the past, in 1972 and 1980 (as West Germany) and 1996. Only in 1968 the German national team did not qualify to European and also counts three defeats in final. The numbers in Germany are impressive: since the 2000s painstaking work since the youth sector has enabled the Federation to build a winning team capable of reaching almost to the bottom of each competition including at least the semi-finals in the last four editions of the Europeans . Poland is the third consecutive participation in a European Championship after those of 2008 (first time ever) and 2012. The Robert Lewandoski team in the qualifying group was ranked only behind by one point compared to world champions Germany and has the main protagonist of the striker of Bayern Monaco, top scorer in qualifying with 13 goals scored. The formation of Nawałka will also seek to redeem the disappointing last places obtained in the days of the previous editions in which the red and white had qualified. The Northern Ireland debut. Thanks to the first place gained during qualifying he made the big leap. The National went closer to the final stage of a European only in 1984. O'Neill's team will try to honor until the end of his tournament, although it will be very difficult to see the power of the opposing teams. Ukraine is in its second participation in a European Championship after the first appearance in 2012, when the nation was also the organizer. The Fomenko team is looking for the speedy redemption after deleting the group took place four years ago despite a good start aided by the comeback win against Sweden by 2 to 1. The defeats against France and England have then turned off the dreams of glory of an entire nation. In the past Ukraine had the merit of providing the Soviet Union great players that have allowed him to achieve major breakthroughs in the years '60 -'70 and '80. Assumed the top spot she Germany, Ukraine will play the possibility of a qualification with Poland. |
Re: Euro 2016 Thread here by Princepoint(m): 11:48pm On May 31, 2016 |
Group D: Spain, Turkey, Czech Republic, Croatia Prediction qualified possible. In Group D Spain is the number one favorite to the next round according to the bookmakers. For second place bulleted eyes, in order, of Croatia Czech Republic and Turkey. It will be a good fight for second place with two teams fighting almost on par, more secluded Terim's team. Spain arrives in France by defending champion and 2012 but also in 2008. The Spanish national team has been for years a power of world football having won for the last 8 years the two European and one world cup. The angry red in their group have gained 27 points of 30 available: a practically perfect team against which disposed of the output to the Brazilian World Cup disappointment. Croatia, second in Group H, in their fourth consecutive appearance at the European and showed a lot of quality in the last two years. The best result for the red and white were the quarterfinals obtained in 1996 and 2008. National always tough to deal with it is highlighted since the 90's. Only without the Europeans in 2000. The Czech Republic is the fifth participation in the European Championships. Recall that the team takes the field since 1994 as an independent nation. Since then, training has always qualified losing the final in 1996 against Germany and reaching the semifinals in 2004 (the team was defeated by Greece). The best result ever was achieved in 1976 with the victory of the tournament, but it was the national team of Czechoslovakia. The Vrba team, winner of their tournament, looks like a tough team and difficult to deal with. Trained to watch out for that could give a hard time. Turkey was ranked as the third best in these European and returns to participate in a European competition after eight years of absence. For € 2012, the fact the team failed to qualify. The best result obtained from Turkey to Europe have reached the semi-finals in 2008 under the guidance of Terim. The team was defeated by Germany after victories against Switzerland Czech Republic and Croatia. The Turkish national team is preparing has to perform, but the group is not of the easiest and by many experts is given little chance. |
Re: Euro 2016 Thread here by Princepoint(m): 11:53pm On May 31, 2016 |
Group E: Belgium, Italy, Republic of Ireland, Sweden Prediction qualified possible. And the group is without doubt one of the toughest groups with three teams ready to battle to get ahead in the event. The bookmakers quoting Belgium Italy as favorites in the next round, but beware to Sweden by many prognosticators as a possible rival of Italian. The Republic of Ireland is likely to be the Cinderella of the group. But one between Belgium and Italy Sweden may not qualify in the first two positions will be key many points as possible to return the best third. It is no longer a surprise but a solid reality. Belgium has registered tremendous progress in recent times: the Wilmots team plays a nice kick to behold, fast and put together a good ball possession. The first place in the ranking fifa it explains. Belgium reaches these European after winning their group. The rise of the team began a few years ago after 12 years of absence of any competition, the team qualifies for the World Cup of 2014, exceeds the round but was eliminated in the second round. The Red Devils continue their path over the next two years and will try to go all the way in the competition. Belgium in its history has reached a final (they lost) in 1980. Italy is going to face a European Championship for the sixth consecutive time. Blue, came second in the previous edition (as in 2000), will try to continue to highlight the progress made in the era of Count. The coach has already announced in recent days that will leave the technical guidance of the national team, but despite that the team seems united and eager to leave a good memory under its management. Also there is to redeem the world ugly of 2014 only ended the days. Italy comes to this issue after the victory in their group undefeated and history tells that one one occasion our national, in 1968, has managed to gain the victory. Such as Hungary, Sweden has also got the pass for Europeans with a victory in the playoffs against Denmark. The coach Hamren will point out all about Zlatan Ibrahomovic, author of 62 goals in yellow and blue jersey, and real driver in the qualifying round and the play-offs. In the 90s the team reached an important European value coming in the semifinals in 1992 and third place at the US world. In 2004, just a back-heel goal of a young Ibrahimovic forced Italy to draw and gave the green light to "cookie" in the same Swedish and Denmark in the last group match. The National Hamren will try to make a good impression by giving battle to the last. The Republic of Ireland is the third part in a European Championship after those of 1988 and 2012. The O'Neill team wants to redeem the bad group stage of 2012 when the formation then led by Trapattoni came home with 0 points, but it will not be easy considering the teams present. The Republic of Ireland has earned a pass to Europeans through the play-off win against Bosnia Dzeko. In a very difficult group the O'Neill team is likely to be the sacrificial victim. The first qualification at a prestigious tournament is dated 1988, when the team won against England. In subsequent years the Republic of Ireland nearly access to the finals in 1992, 1996 and 2000, losing the play-off against the Netherlands and Turkey in two circumstances. After a negative moment, the Irish football back competitive and the national team back to participate in a European in 2012. |
Re: Euro 2016 Thread here by Princepoint(m): 11:56pm On May 31, 2016 |
Group F: Portugal, Iceland, Austria, Hungary Prediction qualified possible. Portugal and Austria are the two most national accredited to the bookmakers to go through as first and second, respectively. More defilate Hungary and Iceland .Portugal of Cristiano Ronaldo , a finalist at Euros 2004, experienced continuous growth in recent years. The Iberian national statistics in hand, has reached two World Cup semi-finals in 2006 and the European Championship in 2012, losing in the latter tournament against Spain only on penalties. In the 2000s, Portugal has always qualified to the final stages of both a European and a global level. Santos coach will point out all about Cristiano Ronaldo arrived at an altitude of 55 goals with the shirt of the Lusitanian. The best results obtained to Europeans by Portugal was the final of the 2004 Europeans played at home: then overcame Greece in the final. The Lusitanian, along with the likes of National Spain, Germany, Italy, France, Holland and the Czech Republic, is among the seven national always qualified in the last five editions of the Europeans. Austria returns to the finals of a European Championship for the second time in its history. The first was in 2008 as hosts together with Switzerland. Thanks to the hard and painstaking work of Austrian coach Marcel Koller returned to finally be competitive after the disappointment of Euro 2012 and the 2014 World Cup where national failed to qualify and paid the inexperience. Nine wins and a draw in their ten qualifying matches do understand how this team can really be a leader in their group. After many years of absence he returns to Hungary on the stage of a final round of international competition. The Magyars were absent from the European and World Cup qualifiers from the Mexico 1986 World Cup play-off victory against Norway's gift to the team Storck a historic success. Hungary's progress in recent years are in the sight of all: careful clubs to youth sectors, painstaking work of national, spectacular game. The idea of Stork is to bring back Hungary a power of football not only in Europe, just as happened many years ago when the Magyars were feared by the major national. Hungary's past score is respectable having played two finals of the World Cup in 1938 and 1954. Iceland in all likelihood be forced to be the Cinderella of the group. The team of coach Lagerback and Hallgrimsson reached for the first time in its history the final round of a European championship with a second-place finish in their group. Qualifying the team still showed to have character, grit and game, ingredients also obtained thanks to the recent success of the Under 21, true reservoir of this national. Over the last 10 years Iceland has grown even touching in the past an equally historic milestone like the World Cup: only Croatia to the playoffs ended the dream of Icelanders. |
