How can anyone defend this absolute shite??
I've watched every Euros since '92, every World Cup since '90 numerous Copa America tournaments and Euro 2016 is by far the worst international football competition I have ever seen.
What an embarrassment this is, a complete fucking disaster.
You're a liar and a pleb
>>68691909
You're a spudnigger and a pederast
also less memes
I'm 32, the first tournament I can remember clearly is USA 1994. This is definitely one of the worst tournaments since then.
>>68691744
>Watching Switzerland France
>Both teams are already in the knockout stage
>France struggled to score against Albania and Romanis
What the fuck did you expect nigga, only a retard would watch it today. The only good games will be Croatia - Spain, England - Slovakia, Wales - Russia and Portugal - Hungary
Learn to football mate
I hated 2010 so much more
>>68692189
Why did they expand it?
>>68691744
What does it mean to be "Still Alive"?
>>68691744
drawtugal - austria yesterday was entertaining. sports need their villains/memes. misstiano penaldo has made this tournament worthwhile
>put good teams against shit teams
>the good teams aren't blowing the fuck out of the shit teams
>>68691744
>let in a bunch of meme-nations that can't do anything but defend and score from counterattacks
>complain about a lack of quality
At least the memes are on-point this year
>>68692248
It's not just this game, Baconboy. The whole fucking tournament has been dreadful.
It's fucking shit. The group stages are supposed to be chaotic end-to-end matches with groups of death and unexpected results. Defensive football has been incentivised. Albania are still in playing their shit football.
These teams are going to continue to play like this. They'll take shitty games to extra time and penalties. The overall quality has been awful.
>>68692394
Literally not a single good meme has come out of Euro 2016
>>68692047
Advancing past the group stage guide for Euro 2016 (tm):
>Win against Albania
>Draw against Romania
>???
>Second place in the group
>>68692321
They (Albania in this case) still have a chance to advance from the group as 4 out of 6 3rd placed teams advance depending on points, goal difference, etc.
Be sincere.
Without southamerican players, european leagues would be shitty?

Of course. Need a bit of flair
>le park the bus football
>>68692481
Hungarian sweatpants man would disagree
>three teams go through
No one could have predicted that it would be shit.
>>68692735
This
There are other meme players(muller milik tsuuuu) but not as dank as le cut inaide mane
>>68692047
Nicely done, Hans
I can't wait for knockout stages, group stage really is literally semen slurping
They need to cut it back down to 16 teams next tournament and put asterisks next to some of these records that are being broken like "The first time Switzerland have ever made it to the knock out rounds".
>>68692806
>m-muh secret club
I'd rather have 40 year olds than teens desu
>>68693006
I reckon even just cutting it down to 20 would be okay. 4 groups of 5, top two go through to the QFs.
>>68692047
What the fuck, jej
>>68692376
Switzerland dominated the match clearly.
You forget, the pitches are complete shit. Makes good football hard to do when you're slipping all over the place.
The french answer to their pitches being shit is to water them like mad before a game, making them soggy, this is why you see better game by the second half.
>>68692277
never forget
>>68693124
The pitches can't be used as an excuse as they've all played on worse.
The problem is UEFA's meddling has destroyed the attitude and approach teams have in the group stages.
>>68692376
No point in going all out for a win against the shit team, there's another 2 shit teams to play in the group and 4 or 5 points gets you through to the next round.
>>68691744
I agree with this, the only sides that looked like they belong so far were Italy and Spain
Everybody else should be fucking ashamed of themselves for competing
And Holland should feel ashamed for NOT competing when the likes of Albania and Slovakia are
>>68692735
>not scouting for ultimate meme talent from obscure countries
0-0 should not reward in a point each.
You should only get a point for a score draw
>>68693289
That's the fucking problem right there mate
Letting the top 3 instead of 2 advance is the dumbest shit ever
at least it's not 2002 m8
>>68693357
Whatever man
>>68693514
This was very bad but not because of poor quality football. It's different
2010 was bad like this Euro, lots of boring shit draws and passive play
>>68693528
What the fuck happened to your football?
>>68691744
World Cup 2010 was the worst.
>>68692282
Because France is full of greedy kikes
>>68693072
I agree with this.
>>68693514
That was the most fixed football match I've ever seen. Fuck gook nations.
>Albania are still in this fucking meme tournament
>we didn't even qualify
I can speak objectively because Scotland haven't competed in a tournament in 18 years - this tournament is pushing 2010 for levels of awfulness.
>>68692189
I'm 30 and I remember Euro 92, your memory is shit mate
It's not international competitions that are getting worse. It's the ever-growing gap between club football and international football. We take for granted the quality and excitement of club football and international football feels like shit.This is better than almost any of the WCs and Euros mentions.
This and time was slower then. And people more easily entertained.
>>68693655
No. WC 2010 at least had some decent games in the group stages
>>68693601
Van Persie sucks
Blame this corrupt twat, the expansion of the tournament was his idea.
>>68693853
True
It used to be great players emerged and got famous due to world cups
Today it's all shit and everybody who isn't already playing in Europe is a joke
>>68693975
Nigga plz
>The proposal to expand the competition was put forward by the Scottish Football Association and Football Association of Ireland last year.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/internationals/7636495.stm
>>68693947
We've had a few decent games so far, but the lack of goals has been a problem. It will get better in the knockout stages. 2010 was just pure shite all the way through, and there was an insane amount of refball going on.
>>68693975
Shame, MP was a fucking outstanding player. Turned in to a cuntwipe when he became a bureaucrat
>>68694040
The expansion was arranged by uefa over four years ago you idiot.
>>68694047
>2010 was just pure shite all the way through
Bollocks it was
>>68693956
Is that fucker still your first choice? He's what 35 now? Why can't you get some young new players?
>>68692248
Reminds me of Netherlands v Argentina 2006, what an awful awful game
A soccer match should go to 9 vs 9 or 8 vs 8 instead of penalty kicks.
Discuss.
It's worked out really well for the NHL this year, and their old system was the same as soccer's: penalty shots. With fewer players, more space opens up for attacks, but the fundamentals are still the same, unlike with PKs, where all of the strategy of the game goes out the window.
>>68694047
I would be more worried about all yuros chimping out.
You have a guy in a coma ffs.
If ppl start dying they may even suspend the all fucking thing.
All normal white yuros should be embarrassed of this tournament.
we can all agree that 2004 was the best euro competition

>>68692735
>>68694047
>It will get better in the knockout stages
It won't. No past tournaments point towards better games in the knockout rounds. It always gets more cagey. Expect lots of extra times.
>>68694537
I agree. Football needs new rules, or some innovations.
Remember how boring volleyball was?
bus parking is the problem. teams shouldn't be allowed back past a certain line until the ball is in a certain position.
>>68694181
Exactly my thought...
>>68692047
my sides
>>68694670
Are you proposing an offside for defenders?
>>68694670
In the case of a 0-0 draw both teams should be kicked out of the tournament.
>>68694537
I like this idea, desu.
>>68693514
They also cheated Spain as well
>>68691744
>he didn't watch WC2010
>>68694537
That change or anything like that would just lead to teams taking even fewer risks and (surprise) NOTHING HAPPENS.
>>68694725
yes. we should regulate the amount of space in behind
Besides laughing at how badly Ronaldo is getting cucked, has there been any fun moment on the pitch this Euros?
The off the pitch silly shit is more entertaining.
England's group has been the most exciting. Who would have thought?
Following the riots has been more exciting than most of the matches. I don't even expect goal gluts, just an attempt to actually play and not park the bus. I was so glad when Sweden got scored on. They were honestly trying to draw every match and squeeze their way into third place.
>>68691744
WC 2002, 2010 and Copa Memerica 2011 were much worse.
>>68694740
this
or better the teams are disbanded for life
or shot
>>68694788
I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure you're wrong about that. If it were just one on one, then you only have to beat one man to have a clear look at goal. If it's 2 on 2, you and your teammate have to beat 2 guys collectively to have a good look at goal. 3 on 3, 3 defenders, etc. etc. Just look at the USA vs. Ecuador game from a few days ago. Both teams were extremely and quickly offensively minded after the double red cards.
>>68694772
Again; there were some great games at WC 2010.
Literally every one Uruguay and Germany were involved in.
Netherlands vs. Brazil
Spain vs. Chile
Spain vs Switzerland
Mexico vs. Argentina
France vs. South Africa
Japan vs. Denmark
The Group F and G games
>>68692735
>no holland
>no denmark
im biased, but netherlands is just a core part of the euro, how the fuck did they not qualify
>>68695029
>group F and G
just reminded me of the 7-0 from the por - NK game
>>68692047
Did he kick his own fucking head. Wtf
>>68695029
to be honest none of these fixtures even ring a bell
>>68695029
>France vs. South Africa
>France
>In the 2010 WC
>>68695174
Do you not even remember Netherlands fucking Brazil's shit up? Or the Uruguay vs. Ghana game and Suarez's handball?
>>68693514
Why must you bring back memories of that game
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
The problem with SA 2010 was those fucking vuvazelas that ruined the atmosphere, so everyone tries to put the whole tournament to the back of their minds.
>>68695349
This game was great cmon
>>68695547
you now remember this:
>open /sp/
>"hey, wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world"
>BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
when i was a kid euros used to be fucking huge, like world cup huge. now i don't even watch most of the games (not because we're not in it, i just think they're all boring). i guess the death of nationalism also means the death of international football.
>>68691744
>Worse than 90
Impossible. But I blame ENGLAND for that
>England didn't qualify for Euro 2012
>Let's put more teams to avoid that!
This Euro is worse than 2012 and 2008, but it is not that bad
>>68695717
Helps if you're in the tournament.
>>68695727
What the fuck are you talking about, you AIDS monkey?
England didn't qualify for Euro 2008, not 2012.
Euro 2008 was fantastic, and Euro 2012 was great too.
The conversation to introduce more teams into the Euro Championships was nothing to do with England.
>>68692394
Uh-oh, someone is fearing the match with Iceland, isn't he?
>good memes
Which one? Sweatpants Guy or CR sucking ass? Both very low quality memes.
>>68695727
t. Americunt in Rio.
>>68695839
The memes are shit.
No points for a 0-0 draw. A losing team that scored 2 or more goals gets one point. Teams that score 4 or more recieve a bonus point.
>>68694537
Some players would probably collapse then. After 90 minutes most are already finished, 30 minutes ET with only 16 or 18 players on the field would be a total shitfest.
>>68696760
Look at his flag.
>>68696760
Yea but I've had enough of euros saying shit wouldn't work >cuz reasons. Realistically, what about what I said presents a problem? Pace abuse and endurance abuse absolutely already exist. And any downsides to 8 on 8 would surely be compensated for by the fact that it's still infinitely more similar to the actual sport than penalty shots are. I swear, at least half the stigma against soccer in the USA is caused directly by the whole bullshit "beautiful game" aura surrounding it. It's just a fucking sport.
this euro is pretty good
>>68695727
The English FA opposed the Euros expansion and England did qualify for Euro 2012. Is the zika virus messing up, favelinho?
>>68694607
EM GULD
i dont even set an alarm to watch the games, the whole tournament has been absolute dogshit except maybe 2-3 games out of the pack. Fuck this shit.
>no lahm
>no mertesacker
yeah this euro is shit
>>68692047
Fewer memes. Fewer
>>68692833
North Korea did it first in 2010
>>68698720
I guess what could maybe help is to allow for more substitutes
The England Wales match has probably been the best
>>68693006

No need to cut down anything
2nd group stage format would solve all issues
>>68700796

No, no, no.
To all those complaining about 2010
At least we had GOAT music and great memes

shit I was on the train during that game. wtf this is actually the same player who got a hat trick in the previous world cup?
>>68695063
actually this, how did this actually fucking happen?
Also is Ronaldogal taking money to throw the games or what? same shit happened in the world cup 2 years ago.
>>68702270

>>68702107
Because it's fucking retarded
>>68702488
They expanded the competition to include more teams, the Netherlands and Denmark played absolutely shit and lost to terrible teams. Don't know about Ronaldo guess he's just having a bit of a hiccup
>>68702107
I like this idea. Penalties are the cheapest way to advance or win. I'm sorry, it's just fucking dumb.
>>68702593
that's my point-- if the competition got expanded, how did they STILL not qualify?
I mean, granted, Northern Ireland and especially Iceland are doing shockingly well, but still.
>>68702517
Literally how?
>>68702613
I'm just tired by these long-ass Knock-out games
This is inspired by the old Champions League format(which UEFA should bring back for CL already...round of 16 is fucking dumb)
>>68700481
Király's been wearing them since 1993 lad
>>68702774
because they lost and other teams won. that's how badly they played. albania and northern ireland did what they couldn't. what's so hard to understand?
>>68702849
That even furthers my point
Sweatpants are not a 2016 meme. No memes have happened yet
>>68702774
This whole "northern Ireland got through because they expanded the competition" meme needs to end. Northern Ireland topped their group, they would be through in the normal 16 structure so please no more
>WHY ARE THEY IN IT
Teams like Netherlands lost fair and square, stop pretending otherwise.
First tournament i clearly remember is WC98. This is the worst international footy tournament i hqve ever seen. The fact that so many teams gain entry now, and the fact that so many teams can advance thorugh group stages is what has killed this tournament.
Shit teams are now able to playz the draw, place 3rd and continue. Group stages are completely fucked.
But i'm confident we'll see better stuff in the knockout rounds. It's do or die there. So EC16 isnt completely dead yet
>>68703181
Northern Ireland got in because they had probably the weakest group of all time
>Romania
>Hungary
>Finland
>Faroe Islands
>Greece
Greece was in god damn Pot 1 for christ's sake
>>68691744
>competitive games
>not being able to know who's going to win months in advance
>teams with defensive depth
>this is all bad
Get a load of this pleb, shouldn't you be watching a Roland Emmerich or something?
>>68702805
One group stage is enough. They promote anti-football enough as it is without introducing another fucking group stage.
There's a good reason why big football competitions done away with that sort of bollocks including the CL.
>>68703508
FUCKING THANK YOU
>>68703333
Alright, let's check out Netherlands group:
>Turkey
>Czech republic
>Kazakhstan
>Latvia
>Iceland
Wow, really top tier teams there, no wonder Netherlands failed to qualify!
>>68702613
So support glorious 8v8: >>68694537
>He still watches football after Real Madrid ruined the sport in May.
Your own fault desu.
>>68703683
I wasn't saying Netherlands deserved to be in you tard. They fucking deserve to be out with the way they played.
I was just saying that if Northern Ireland were in any other group they probably don't qualify.
>>68703508
>>teams with defensive depth
You mean terrible offense.
>>68703726
I don't know enough about soccer to be able to say whether that's a good idea, but I do like the sound of it.
However, UEFA and FIFA are UNBELIEVABLY hesitant to change the rules in the slightest. look how long it took them to incorporate goal line technology.
It will honestly never happen.
>>68703796
Most of the qualifying groups are shit, and they let like the top few in as well.
Anyone else getting depressed from this Euro?
I expected great things from our captain and national hero, but he just can't fucking score. It's like he's cursed or some shit. I felt safe with Quaresma playing last game, but even that didn't help us.
I really love this time of the year. Flags outside, everyone watching the game and having a good time. This will all end unless we bury Hungary. I really hope that we fucking murder Hungary, I hate Hungarians so God damn much.
Thanks for listening.
>>68703843
You're right about them opposing change, but the most interesting thing is if they were actually purists, the penalty shootout would be sacrilege. How in the 70's they went straight from "play until someone fuckin scores" to "five guys shoot from the spot" is sort of funny. Something like 8 on 8 would be the same game with a few less moving parts, unlike Pks.
>>68703578
2 group stages would literally be the same as previous Euro's but with 2 group stages
Now teams would have to be more risky and play more offensively to get one of the 2 top spots in the first group stage and they would have to play even more offensively to get the top spot in the 2nd group stage
>anti-football
into the trash you go
>>68704079

It's like 2004 wasn't enough for you to learn.

So not the fucking same at all then at all
There was a single group stage then straight into the knock outs phase, you fucking cretin.
>>68704079
they clearly threw this and last world cup for money.
>>68693601
You sound like a whiny bitch.
The Copa is so superior to the Euro this year and the yuropoors are so buttblasted about it it's awesome.

>lol but not meme cause he hasn't won a single ballon d'or

2016 Euros: 1.85 goals per game
2014 WC: 2.7 goals per game
2012 Euros: 2.45 goals per game
2010 WC: 2 goals per game
2016 Euros are fucking garbage. A draw =/= enthralling tactical battle. It's ok to admit the Euros are shit so far.
>>68704547
You only say that because your country is only starting to become relevant in international soccer. Plus, your shit conceball tourny is at semi-finals, while the euro is just entering knock-out stage. ur hilarious
Just get rid of referees. BAM football instantly improves

Again with the pathetic insults because you know I'm right and you're wrong
It would literally be the fucking same because teams wouldn't be able to coast along playing for 0-0 draws and it would be roughly the same amount of matches(maybe less) you retarded dropout
Again you don't know what the word "compensation" means...maybe it's because you're stupid

I've followed Euro's for a long time now

Now it's been expanded to 24

Cry some more you retarded poltard and keep throwing out baseless accusations
>>68707137
Again retarded dropout you need to go back to school or at least take a math course
2.7 millions is bigger than 1.5 million
And those 2.7 million are sandniggers from Pakistan,Bangladesh and Turkey while we merely adopted their religion some hundred years ago and have no relation to them whatsoever
>>68707132
Euro 2008 was a great tournament, it was the best Euros since 1996. Every knockout game, even the 0-0 Spain vs. Italy one, was a great watch.
Some great group games too.
>>68707319
Nothing baseless at all. You're a Muslim and need fucking removing from this planet. Literally no ones likes you or wants you here.
>>68707561
60 out of every 100 people in your shithole country are filthy fucking Muslims.
5 out of every 100 in the UK are filthy fucking Muslims.
That's the maths, you ISIS scumcunt.
>>68707811
>Nothing baseless at all.
100% baseless actually
You accused Albania of terrorism when it's one of the safest countries around
You're a low iq monkey who doesn't even know what he's talking about like all poltards
>>68707618
Better than Euro 2000 and 2004?
I don't think so
>>68708489
>albania
>60% muslim
>safe
Top kek.
>>68708316
But we're all against ISIS you retarded polfag
And
2.7 million>>>>1.5 million
Especially when you have the real deal while here it's just a meme religion
>>68708681
Yes. It was. Euro 2004 was dull as fuck thanks to the top teams being shit and Greece memeballing their way to the win.
Euro 2008 was easily the best since 1996.
>>68708894
>shitskin albanian muslims
>against isis
Lel. You shithouse cunts need removing from Europe asap.
>>68708806
The only danger you'll be in Albania is if you get involved with Radical Nationalists like in all the rest of Balkan
Albania is a Nationalist Country not a religious one
I don't know why you keep pushing the meme that it's a religious country...it's not
>>68709210
>shitskin
We're whiter than you you dipshit
In fact you'll rarely ever see blacks here while in England they're everywhere
>>68709543
>albania
>white
Fucking kek. You things aren't fucking white at all
>>68709059
>Ibra's backheel goal vs Italy
>Rui Costa's amazing goal vs England
>Owen's incredible goal vs Portugal
Nah Euro 2004 was better
Euro 2008 was basically The Spain Show
And don't get me started on Euro 2000 which wipes the floor with 2008 in every way
>>68709788
You need to lay off /pol/ you delusional cuck
>>68709908
>Euro 2008 was basically The Spain Show
Showing what a clueless shitskin cunt you are.
>he doesn't remember the netherlands
>he doesn't remember turkey
>he doesn't remember russia
>he doesn't remember croatia
>he doesn't remember germany
>>68710034
It's not just /pol/ that despises you fucking subhuman bits of shit. The entire developed world loathes you Muslim scum.
>>68709908
>And don't get me started on Euro 2000 which wipes the floor with 2008 in every way
Nope. You're wrong, as most third world Muslim terrorist scum are.
Fuck off back to your goat, you odious piece of shit.
>>68691744
>competitive games
>every team is strong in a way and make close games
>Tactically beautiful to watch
>Bad
This is why you only won one world cup, John
>>68710775
The teams aren't strong though and the quality of finishing is awful. Also, tactically, they're depressing as it involves and incredibly cautious and defensive approach to games.
>>68710378
>The entire developed world loathes you Muslim scum.
Yes you're right the entire world really does hate YOU
You're a cucked country full of niggers and sandniggers
>>68710617
Most people consider Euro 2000 to be the best one
There's more terrorism in your country than here
So again have no idea what you're talking about Ahmed
>>68696302
This idea is good
>>68711283
>Most people consider Euro 2000 to be the best one
They don't though. You're wrong. Like I said; most Muslim shitskin third worlders like you are.
>>68711283
>Yes you're right the entire world really does hate YOU
Yes that's why Europe is begging us to remain in the EU and no one wants shithole Muslims nations like you any where near it.
>>68711455
>They don't though.
They do though you fucking retard
Euro 2000 is the most popular one by far
>Portuguese Golden Generation making it to Semi's
>Holland had an amazing team
>Italy kicking ass and their dramatic match against Holland
>The Dramatic Epic Finale that was France vs Italy with France winning on Golden Goal rule(a loss which would be avenged 6 years later)
Nothing compares
>>68712131
>Euro 2000 is the most popular one by far
Wrong. I bet you didn't even watch it and are just deliberately being contrarian, you terrorist scum
>>68711607
We're not a muslim nation you dumb nigger
How many times do I have to tell your dumb ass that we're a nationalistic country and not to believe in /pol/ meme you stupid cunt?
Have you ever even fucking been here?
Of fucking course not
>B-but Europe is begging us to stay in the EU
Because you're the most "multi-cultural" country in Europe by far
They need you to push the Globalization agenda
>>68702107
1982 WC used it
>>68712256
Every time I ask someone whether it's IRL or online Euro 2000 seems to be the most popular one
A lot of the popularity comes from Zidane winning it for France
This was also the last time we saw greats like Maldini play in the competition too
>>68712408
>not a muslim nation
from Wikipedia
>The most common religion practiced in Albania is Islam
ahmed pls
>>68712408
>60% muslim
>b-b-but we're not shitskin third world muslim scum. h-h-onest.
>Because you're the most "multi-cultural" country in Europe by far
No it's because we have the 5th/6th biggest economy in the world, have a nuclear arsenal and contribute more to the EU than every nation bar Germany.
Literally no one wants Albania and you terrorist scumcunts in the EU
>>68712559
I know WC has used it in the past(and it makes sense since there's more teams) but the Euro hasn't(since uptill now it used to have a low amount of teams)
>>68712623
>le anecdotal bullshit from a muslim scumcunt
>>68712752
>and it makes sense since there's more teams
Which is why they dropped it????
>>68705784
lol
>>68706229
I used to play on a football team with like five Albanians and they were all Muslim
I thought 2010 was bad but this takes the cake
>>68712694
Irrelevant
Very few actually practice it(go to mosque's etc.)
It's a meme religion and most say "they're muslim" just to keep up the tradition but in reality they don't give a shit
That's why you see shit in football matches like banners saying "We're proud to be Albanian" instead of "We're proud to be Muslim"
In reality we're a Secular Country which pretends to be Muslim because of retarded tradition
>>68712726
I never recall saying that somebody wants us(heck who wants anyone from the Balkans we all hate each-other)
But we'll be here whether you like it or not you fucking edgy little bitch
>>68704079
my fucking god, you have one more game left to play and already giving up
>>68712752
WC since 1986, WWC since 2015 and Euro since 2016 use eighter finals instead of a 2nd group phase because some reasons:
- risk of useless matches (if team A win your matches and there's team B x team C to play)
- avoid incidents like Disgrace of Gijón
- when 4 groups in 2nd phase, there are 6 group winners, who implies in 2 groups with 2 group winners and 2 groups with 1 only group winner
The 2nd phase in 1982
- West Germany (1st in G2), England (1st in G4), Spain (2nd)
- Poland (1st in G1), Belgium (1st in G3), USSR (2nd in G6)
- Northern Ireland (1st in G5), France (2nd in G4), Austria (2nd in G2)
- Brazil (1st in G6), Italy (2nd in G1), Argentina (2nd in G3)
I'd rather visit Albania than the caliphate of """G"""B 2bh
>>68712920
For the same reason UEFA dropped the 2nd group stage in CL...for more popularity/money
>>68692365
>yfw ronaldo pulls a 2016 lebron
cucks like you will commit suicide
>>68713626
I rather you would too, Ty'Rone.
>>68713374
>But we'll be here whether you like it or not you fucking edgy little bitch
You won't be joining the EU anytime soon. No one wants you here.
>>68713790
>UEFA dropped the 2nd group stage
No, because it was a fucking dreadful retarded mess. It's why no competition worth anything has returned to the format.
>>68713099
Albanians abroad are a different story and "might" take their religion more seriously(they're also even more nationalistic in average)
But here majority of them are just Muslims for show
It's like those girls that say "I'm a good Christian Girl" but in reality they're total sluts
>>68713992
The competitions from 2000 to 2003 were some of the best one by far
As soon as UEFA/Platini abolished it we got Porto vs Monaco final in 2004 which was terrible
>>68704547
>The Copa is so superior to the Euro this year and the yuropoors are so buttblasted about it it's awesome
LOL NO, BECAUSE THE COPA IS NOT BROADCASTED HERE
How could we be "buttblasted" about a tournament whose very existence is completely ignored here?
Also what's the thing with Americans who think we're always mad and secretly jealous about them?
>trusting a word this shitskin albanian faggot says about anything
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taqiya
>>68713869
Well we'll see about that
But not joining the EU isn't the end of the world
Europe is more than just the EU
Power ranking of the Euros so far:
2000 > 2004 > 2008 > 2012 > 2016
That's quite simple.
>>68714165
I have never heard of that shit in my entire life
People here are pretty tolerant towards different religions(except old farts in their 80s or so which are too old to get with the times at this point)
And again
We're white
I'm sorry your little /pol/ fairy tales aren't true anon :^(
