The final match of the European Championship took place yesterday. Spain defeated England 2:1 in the decisive match. With this, the Prineans won the continental cup for the 4th time. It should also be noted that they achieved another unique indicator. So, the Spaniards are the only team that has won all their games in the said tournament.
In general, if we analyze the performances of the teams in the championship separately, it should be noted that "La Furia" was one of the teams that exhibited the best game. Before the start of the tournament, England, whose name was first among the favorites and managed to reach the finals, failed to live up to the expectations of their fans. Their fans did not like their results based games. The creators of football set a new anti-record by losing in the final for the second time in a row.
A total of 117 goals were scored in the 51-match tournament. This indicator is 23 balls less than the corresponding competition of 2020. 2,681,288 fans watched the games held in Germany live from the stadium. This number was 1,032,105 in the 2020 WC.
Undoubtedly, the team supported by the majority of Azerbaijani fans in the mentioned competition was Turkey. They managed to get out of the group that included Portugal, Georgia and the Czech Republic, and in the 1/8 finals, they competed against Austria, one of the teams that played well in the tournament. The "Moon-Stars" who sent the mentioned team home did not succeed in the next round against the Netherlands. Speaking of Georgia, the national team of the neighboring country managed to make a name for itself by defeating Portugal in its first tournament. Switzerland is one of the teams whose name should be specially mentioned in this regard. In contrast, the winner of the WC-2020, Italy, disappointed their fans with an unpleasant game.
The captain of the Portuguese national team, Cristiano Ronaldo, may have worn a jersey at the European Championship for the last time. He left the tournament without scoring. This was one of the rare events.
In summary, we left behind one more tournament - the European Championship. This year we cheered on other national teams. Why? Because our team does not have the potential to participate in the said tournament. Perhaps in 2028, our national team will qualify for the European Championship. After all, this goal has been set before the new head coach Fernando Santos. Let's live and see...
