With Portugal's 2:1 stoppage time reversal against the Czech Republic, the first round of the European Championship group stage was all over, and the seeded teams Germany and Spain performed strongly, especially Spain, beating Croatia, ranked tenth in the world, by 3 goals, and the state was ridiculously good. England, France and Portugal all won by one goal, Belgium was the most stretched, and the world's third-ranked team lost in an upset, and the swan song of the golden generation was destined to not go far. Switzerland, Romania and Turkey all have dark horse potential, I don't know who can stand out in the end, Romania defeated Ukraine by 3 goals, breaking the embarrassment of not winning in the European Cup for 24 years, and won the second win in the European Cup in team history, the specific 6 groups of standings are shown below.
Group A
The four teams are the closest in the world rankings, and Germany started the game in full swing with a 5-1 victory, and it remains to be seen whether the form came too quickly and whether it will be beneficial to win the championship. After Scotland's heavy defeat to Germany, it ushered in a life-and-death battle with Switzerland, if it loses again, there is basically no hope of qualifying, and the goal difference disadvantage is too great, and Switzerland can advance to the round of 16 in advance if it wins. The same can be said for Germany, who will advance with a win over Hungary and will struggle to qualify for third place in the group due to goal difference.
Group B
Croatia is disappointing, as a traditional European powerhouse, they were beaten by Spain, lost 0:3, in the second round they ushered in a key match with Albania, facing the weakest team in the group, Croatia must get three points to keep the hope of qualifying, Albania loses, it is basically eliminated early. In the other game, Spain faced Italy for the top spot.
Group C
England need to activate Kane's goalscoring ability, and after a narrow one-goal win over Serbia, qualifying is not a problem, and they need to prepare for a tough knockout match. After Denmark was forced to draw by Slovenia, the promotion situation is not optimistic, and the second round met England, if you lose again, you will have to prepare for the final round to beat Serbia, and then you must force three points, and you can't draw it, press out to attack, and it will be won by Serbia.
Group D
France's small victory, but unfortunately injured Mbappe, can be described as a heavy loss, the biggest highlight of this group is the second round of the top battle, the Netherlands played France, Mbappe determined the injury, gave the Netherlands a chance to beat the French team, if you can get the first place in the group, the schedule of the knockout round will be much better.
Group E
Belgium is the only seeded team to lose in the first round, Lukaku needs to improve his scoring efficiency, the second round against the big dark horse Romania, Romania is good at defense, once again testing Belgium's attacking ability, and Romania's long-range shooting ability is excellent, if Belgium can't attack for a long time, I am afraid it will be upset again.
Group F
Portugal's thrilling reversal of the Czech Republic made it extremely easy to qualify from the group, and in another game in this group, Güller broke the record for Cristiano Ronaldo's youngest debut goal, and Turkey's goals were wonderful and had the potential to become a dark horse.
