Despite a double course in Spanish/Communication, I decided to take control of my dreams by heading into journalism. With a master’s degree in sports journalism, I cover sports and football news with as much admiration for transfer periods, when a club must make crucial choices for next season.
The third day of the first round of Euro 2024 starts this Sunday. After two straight wins at home, Germany is actively hoping to make it three against Switzerland this evening. For the first time since the start of the competition, the matches on this third day will be played simultaneously. Also at 9 p.m., Scotland and Hungary will face each other with the obligation to win. Presentation.
And 3 for Germany? After victories againstScotland in opening (5-1), and facing the Hungary Wednesday evening (2-0), the Mannschaft will try to obtain a third success in this group stage of its Euro 2024. The formation of Julian Nagelsmannn face it Swiss this Sunday evening.
The other evening meeting will pitScotlandwho obtained his first point in the competition against the Swiss precisely (1-1) during the previous match, at the Hungarywhich has been rather disappointing so far.
A very interesting Swiss – Germany
L’Germany has clearly convinced since the start of this Euro 2024. At home, the Mannschaft showed that she was capable of shining both collectively and individually. Jamal Musiala seems in great shape, and the prodigy of Bayern Munich is perfectly supported in attack by Florian Wirtz And Kai Havertz. Already qualified for the 8th finals, Germany will however have to be wary of the Swisswho showed great promise against Hungary in their first match (1-3).
But behind, the “Nati” will not have succeeded in confirming. The Helvetians were very embarrassed by theScotland Wednesday (1-1), and conceded a problematic draw. “Scotland gave us a hard time… We knew that they were in despair since their defeat against Germany (1-5) and that they were going to react against us and that’s what they did. The Scots gave us more problems than Hungary did. It was a bit of a roller coaster: they had some good chances but we missed some too”declared thus Murat Yakin after the meeting.
If theGermany clearly favorite part of this confrontation, beware of relaxation for the partners of Tony Krooswhich, in the event of defeat this evening against the Swiss, would say goodbye to the first place in the group. On the other hand, the Swiss have everything to gain in the event of victory.
A Scotland – Hungary for survival
As mentioned above, the other meeting of this Group A will also take place at 9 p.m., and will pitScotland and Hungary. Slapped from the start in front of theGermany (5-1), the “Tartan Army” rebounded well against the Swiss by obtaining his first point of the competition (1-1). From now on, the men of Steve Clarke are obliged to achieve a big success against the Hungary in order to advance to the next round. L’Scotland could finish second, or even third in Group A if they win this Sunday evening…
“There is nothing to regret. We made a few mistakes, but in football you can make mistakes. Teams like Germany and other world-class teams play better than us, we know that. I would say that Germany are perhaps the biggest favorites to win the Euro. (…) I am proud of the performance of my players. Our approach could have worked, but they have quality all over the pitch. It’s part of the game, we created a lot of chances, but we were unlucky at times.”. Marco Rossicoach of the Hungarywanted to be proud of his family despite the defeat againstGermany (2-0) Wednesday. However, the Magyars worry. With two defeats in as many matches, the partners of Dominik Szoboszlai are up against the wall, and can only get away with a big victory this Sunday evening, and hope to be among the best third-placed groups in this Euro 2024… Anyway, the last day of this Group A is promising announcement…
