Less than a month is left before one of the quintessential soccer tournaments, the European Cup, celebrate a new edition. An edition held at Germany from June 14 to July 14 and which, as usual, will bring together the best of European football to offer fans a series of exciting matches.
A tournament that has already been drawn
So, as usual, the tournament will start with a group stage where the two best in each group and the three best third parties will play in the round of 16, but in what order?
Well, the development of European Cup You’ve made it to the final and, based on the groups and classification of the teams, this will be your path to it.
For example, Spainframed in group B with Croatia, Italy and Albaniaif he comes first, he will play the best third from group A, D, E or F while if he comes second, he will play the second from group A consisting of Germany, Scotland, Hungary and Switzerland. If it is classified as one of the best third places, it will play against the first team in group E (Ukraine, Slovakia, Romania and Belgium) or the first in group F (Portugal, Turkey, Czech Rep. and Georgia).
Great duels
So, and more considering the hypothesis than the chance of football, the first round can bring us great rivalries between powerful teams. For example, in the Spanish group, the most common item is one of the three (Spain, Croatia and Italy) is one of the teams to avoid that may fall first in group E (Probably Belgium) or of F (Perhaps Portugal).
But also in group D (France, Netherlands, Poland and Austria) could spark a round of 16 clash if they face the second team in F, which could be Turkey or the Czech Republic.
What is clear is that, as always in this type of tournament, it is very important to be first in the group, in principle, avoiding the ‘bogeymen’ until the last stage. More or less, each group is made up to have two big teams in the first place, but it is known that this is football and anything can happen.
