Anyone up for a Euro2024 competition?

Make 4 sets of predictions by adding your predictions to this thread ... all entries have to be submitted before the tournament kicks off in 2 weeks time ... book token prizes ...

How does that sound?

Let’s do it .............. ⚽ ⚽ ⚽ ⚽🏆

_______________________________

1. The tournament kicks off on 14 June with 6 groups, each with four teams who play one another in a mini-league format. The top two teams in each group progress to the knock-out stages.

Group A: Germany, Scotland, Hungary, Switzerland
Group B: Spain, Croatia, Italy, Albania
Group C: Slovenia, Denmark, Serbia, England
Group D: Poland, Netherlands, Austria, France
Group E: Belgium, Slovakia, Romania, Ukraine
Group F: Turkey, Georgia, Portugal, Czechia

Predict >> which two teams will finish top of each group (in any order). 2 points for each correct pick.

2. Teams will then play a series of knock-out games before 4 teams reach the semi-finals, to be played on the 9th and 10th of July.

Predict >> the 4 semi-finalists: 4 points for each correct pick.

3. The final takes place in Berlin on Sunday 14th July ...

Predict >> the winner for 10 points.

4. For a bonus 5 points ...

Predict >> the team that the Golden Boot winner for top scorer plays for.

NB - in the event of a tie, earliest submitted entry wins.

Good luck everybody ......
