Welcome to the Wingman Guide’s Euro 2024 roundup! Whether you’re cheering from the stands or catching the action on your app, we’ve got the latest juicy tidbits to keep you in the know. Strap in for a wild ride through the group stages!
Group A: Nail-Biting Finishes
Switzerland is marching into the knockouts as the Group A runners-up! It was touch and go until Niclas Füllkrug scored a last-gasp equalizer for Germany. Now, Switzerland will face the second-place team from Group B, while Hungary anxiously waits to see if their last-minute win over Scotland secures them a spot as one of the best third-placed teams. Talk about keeping us on the edge of our seats!
Group B: Must-Win Madness
Today’s clash is do-or-die for Scotland and Hungary. With their backs against the wall, the Scots need to pull out all the stops to stay in the game. Meanwhile, Hungary has a slightly better chance thanks to their superior goal difference. It’s all on the line, folks! (UPDATE: Hungary won in the 100th minute with 1 goal!)
Group D: French Fitness Woes
French fans, don’t panic! Kingsley Coman felt a little calf discomfort and sat out a friendly, but Coach Deschamps assures us it’s nothing serious. Coman is set for some test training ahead of France’s final group game against Poland. Fingers crossed he’ll be back in action soon!
Group E & F: Tense Times
Poland Packs Up Early
Poland is the first team to be shown the exit, losing 3-1 to Austria and sealing their fate regardless of their next game’s outcome. Better luck next time, lads!
Scottish Shenanigans in Darmstadt
In lighter news, about 30 Scottish fans made a pit stop in Darmstadt for a stadium tour and a peek at a training session. Hats off to the Tartan Army for making the most of their German adventure!
