Brilliant group. I expect the winners of the tournament to come from here and possibly 2 finalists. Can Hungry better Ireland’s record from 2012??? ------------- |

Was looking at this group the other day thinking "how the hell did this happen in the draw". Pity 3 teams go through, would have been a great fight other than that. Prediction: All 3 teams to batter Hungary and a series of draws between the rest.

| Because its the 4 best 3rd place teams that go through I wouldn't necessarily assume that all 3 of these will qualify. If anyone slips up against Hungary and loses to the other 2, I'm looking at Germany for this, then it's curtains. |

The old catchphrase "NEVER RIGHT OFF THE GERMANS" I think they'll finish 2nd and then hopefully knock out the English, if they manage to top the group

Can’t trust Jogi Loew to get it right. Reckon they will go with a back five with Goosens and Kimmich as wing backs, Kimmich is one of the best midfielders in the world but he’s brilliantly versatile so will free up room for Kroos and either Gundogan/Goretzka in midfield.

Ah I thought only the top 2 went through (shows how much attention I was paying). I think Die Mannschaft will be in a win or bust vs Hungary in the last game. Got ticket for the game on Tuesday so there will be a least one Irish fan in with the Germans. Didn't bring them any luck in Moscow vs Mexico |

The French fans made most of the noise - we were at their end. VAR is worse experience in real - The French fans & team were going nuts after Benzema's goal only for it to be disallowed. There was no indication that I remember that there was an issue. With the 1st disallowed goal the linesman had his flag up.

CM Absolutely. Last match was Feb 2020. Glorious sunshine . biergarten pre match. Went with my sun & his mate and a friend of mine was going to the game as well so joined us. The others had earlier entry times. The lads were nervous for the game :-> That was the only bit missing for me as I didn't really care who won (preference for the Germans) but wanted loads of goals Had our biers standing outside the stadium entrance as normal on a match day chatting with people hanging around. Getting in and looking for your spot. The French fans were making the noise. Don't miss going to the Allianz. Soulless place. Even more so yesterday with only 14K. Walk back to u bahn and into the bar before they close for a last drink and final post match analysis.My son really wants to get to more games and was checking the UEFA portal (remember those days :-<) from the train as he went on holidays . I have to try and get tickets for him for the remaining Munich games if poss, so if anyone comes across some let me know. Will try the Portal again later

They've taken the one chance they've had though, and it was well worked. Germany are relentless. Its easy to forget that Loew is a world class manager who has a list of achievements as he leaves. He has drilled them like their lives depend on it, and Portugal are doing what they can and probably have done well, under the circumstances. Don't worry though, if the Portuguese think this is tough just wait until they come up against the Green wall in September.
