Czech Republic 0 - 2 Turkey
1 | Spilak23 | 30 | 2 | Luxemburger | 5 | 2 | Ollfardh | 5 | 2 | sutty68 | 5 | 2 | weirdskyfan64 | 5 | 6 | AbhishekLFC | 0 | 6 | Dippofix | 0 | 6 | emre99 | 0 | 6 | Ian Butler | 0 | 6 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 0 | 6 | Ste117 | 0 |
50% scores nothing. Spilak23 got this one absolutely correct. The rest scores five points.
Croatia 2 - 1 Spain

weirdskyfan64 beat everyone by predicting a Croatia win. Unfortunately for him it became 2 - 1 and not 3 - 2.
Standings:

I'm still in the running for top spot as I believe that my predictions from now will be more accurate since my group stage predictions were all before the tournament so didn't adjust it for form. Should be a good battle all the way to the end!

Iceland 2 - 1 Austria
1 | Ollfardh | 15 | 2 | Ian Butler | 10 | 2 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 10 | 2 | Luxemburger | 10 | 2 | Ste117 | 10 | 6 | AbhishekLFC | 5 | 6 | Dippofix | 5 | 6 | Spilak23 | 5 |
All eight got points, but Ollfardh is the winner with fifteen points.
Hungary 3 - 3 Portugal
1 | Ian Butler | 10 | 1 | Luxemburger | 10 | 1 | Ste117 | 10 | 4 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 5 | 4 | Ollfardh | 5 | 4 | Spilak23 | 5 | 7 | AbhishekLFC | 0 | 7 | Dippofix | 0 |
I want your lottery numbers if you got this one correct. No one did though. Only three people predicted a draw and therefore got ten points: Ian Butler, Luxemburger and Ste117.
Bonus question 2: Which team will score the least goals in the group stage?
Since Austria managed to score today and all teams in Group E have scored at least one, it's clear that Ukraine will be the only team with no goals. Albania was named the most with 4 people, but no one predicted Ukraine so this bonus question goes without points.
Standings:
1 | Luxemburger | 370 | 2 | AbhishekLFC | 365 | 3 | Dippofix | 355 | 4 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 295 | 5 | Ollfardh | 280 | 6 | emre99 | 275 | 6 | Ste117 | 275 | 8 | weirdskyfan64 | 260 | 9 | cunego59 | 210 | 10 | Spilak23 | 195 | 10 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Croatia14 | 105 | 13 | Roextro | 95 | 14 | sutty68 | 75 | 15 | Ian Butler | 65 | 16 | Smowz | 30 |
We have new leaders in Luxemburger by five points over AbhishekLFC. Dippofix still on the podium.
The last group stage matches before we head to the round of 16: - and - . The matches which are already known are in post 2. After the last matches everything can be predicted and bonus question 3 will become available as well.

Italy 0 - 1 Republic of Ireland
1 | Dippofix | 10 | 1 | Ollfardh | 10 | 3 | Ian Butler | 5 | 3 | Luxemburger | 5 | 3 | weirdskyfan64 | 5 | 6 | AbhishekLFC | 0 | 6 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 0 | 6 | Spilak23 | 0 | 6 | Ste117 | 0 |
Only two people had faith in an Ireland victory. Dippofix and Ollfardh get 10 points.
Sweden 0 - 1 Belgium
1 | Ian Butler | 15 | 1 | Ste117 | 15 | 3 | AbhishekLFC | 10 | 3 | Dippofix | 10 | 3 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 10 | 3 | Luxemburger | 10 | 3 | Ollfardh | 10 | 8 | Spilak23 | 5 | 8 | weirdskyfan64 | 5 |
Ian Butler and Ste117 receive fifteen points. The others mostly did predict a Belgium victory and receive ten points.
Standings:
1 | Luxemburger | 385 | 2 | AbhishekLFC | 375 | 2 | Dippofix | 375 | 4 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 305 | 5 | Ollfardh | 300 | 6 | Ste117 | 290 | 7 | emre99 | 275 | 8 | weirdskyfan64 | 270 | 9 | cunego59 | 210 | 10 | Spilak23 | 200 | 11 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Croatia14 | 105 | 13 | Roextro | 95 | 14 | Ian Butler | 85 | 15 | sutty68 | 75 | 16 | Smowz | 30 |
At the end of the group stage it's Luxemburger in the lead. AbhishekLFC and Dippofix are ten points behind in second. The battle for fourth is between Luis Leon Sanchez, Ollfardh and Ste117 at the moment.
The next matches and the new bonus question will be posted in a few minutes.

For these matches you need to predict the result after 'normal time' (90 minutes + added time). If you think the match will be decided in extra time or by penalty shoot-out you predict a draw and then specify which team you think will advance to the quarter finals. If you don't specify you cannot score the maximum amount of points available.
Bonus question 3: How many matches in the round of 16 will be decided by a penalty shoot-out?
Deadline for this question is the first round of 16 match ( - , Saturday 3PM).
Also, there's a possibility for everyone to change their answer for bonus question 1: Who will become European Champions?. If you forgot to answer this before the group stage, or if your answer has been eliminated, or if you lost confidence and want to switch, you can send in a new answer for this question. However, you'll only receive 50 points if it's correct instead of the regular 100. Deadline for this is Saturday 3PM again.

Exactly where I want to be to make my move for the first spot!
Think of my like Iceland.
You know I'm not going to make it. But there's that voice in your head that says: "wouldn't that be great, though?" |

Switzerland 1 - 1 Poland , Poland wins after penalties
1 | AbhishekLFC | 30 | 1 | Ste117 | 30 | 3 | Luxemburger | 15 | 4 | Dippofix | 10 | 4 | Ollfardh | 10 | 4 | Ian Butler | 10 | 7 | MARSUPILAMI | 5 |
Kudos AbhishekLFC and Ste117. Both predicted a 1 - 1 score after 90 minutes, and thought Poland would win the match eventually.
Standings:
1 | AbhishekLFC | 405 | 2 | Luxemburger | 400 | 3 | Dippofix | 385 | 4 | Ste117 | 320 | 5 | Ollfardh | 310 | 6 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 305 | 7 | emre99 | 275 | 8 | weirdskyfan64 | 270 | 9 | cunego59 | 210 | 10 | Spilak23 | 200 | 11 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Croatia14 | 105 | 13 | Ian Butler | 95 | 13 | Roextro | 95 | 15 | sutty68 | 75 | 16 | Smowz | 30 | 17 | MARSUPILAMI | 5 |
And because of that he retakes the lead from Luxemburger with Dippofix still in third. MARSUPILAMI joins the board at seventeenth place.
The next match will start in just a few minutes: -

As everyone predicted a Wales victory, Luxemburger did a bit more than that and also predicted the correct result.
Standings:
1 | Luxemburger | 430 | 2 | AbhishekLFC | 425 | 3 | Dippofix | 400 | 4 | Ste117 | 340 | 5 | Ollfardh | 330 | 6 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 305 | 7 | weirdskyfan64 | 285 | 8 | emre99 | 275 | 9 | Spilak23 | 220 | 10 | cunego59 | 210 | 11 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Ian Butler | 115 | 13 | Croatia14 | 105 | 14 | Roextro | 95 | 15 | sutty68 | 75 | 16 | Smowz | 30 | 17 | MARSUPILAMI | 5 |

Croatia 0 - 0 Portugal , Portugal wins after extra time (0 - 1)
1 | Spilak23 | 5 | 1 | sutty68 | 5 | 3 | The rest | 0 |
At least three quarters of you somehow predicted the same result: 2 - 1 for Croatia. Unfortunately that wasn't correct. Spilak23 and sutty68 predicted a Portugal victory in regular time, but still get 5 points becase they won after extra time.
Standings:
1 | Luxemburger | 430 | 2 | AbhishekLFC | 425 | 3 | Dippofix | 400 | 4 | Ste117 | 340 | 5 | Ollfardh | 330 | 6 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 305 | 7 | weirdskyfan64 | 285 | 8 | emre99 | 275 | 9 | Spilak23 | 225 | 10 | cunego59 | 210 | 11 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Ian Butler | 115 | 13 | Croatia14 | 105 | 14 | Roextro | 95 | 15 | sutty68 | 80 | 16 | Smowz | 30 | 17 | MARSUPILAMI | 5 | 18 | SSJ2Luigi | 0 |
No major changes of course, the podium is still Luxemburger, followed by AbhishekLFC and Dippofix. SSJ2Luigi joined in for this match and is no. 18.
Tomorrow's matches: - , - and - .

We have joint leaders again in AbhishekLFC and Luxemburger, with Dippofix still in third but closing in.

1 | AbhishekLFC | 30 | 2 | Luxemburger | 20 | 2 | Ollfardh | 20 | 2 | Ste117 | 20 | 5 | SSJ2Luigi | 15 | 6 | weirdskyfan64 | 10 | 7 | Dippofix | 0 | 7 | Ian Butler | 0 | 7 | MARSUPILAMI | 0 |
There's only one who got this down correctly, and it's league leader AbhishekLFC.
Standings:
1 | AbhishekLFC | 490 | 2 | Luxemburger | 475 | 3 | Dippofix | 460 | 4 | Ollfardh | 410 | 5 | Ste117 | 395 | 6 | weirdskyfan64 | 315 | 7 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 305 | 8 | emre99 | 275 | 9 | Spilak23 | 245 | 10 | cunego59 | 210 | 11 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Ian Butler | 145 | 13 | Croatia14 | 105 | 14 | Roextro | 95 | 14 | sutty68 | 95 | 16 | Smowz | 30 | 17 | MARSUPILAMI | 25 | 18 | SSJ2Luigi | 15 |

England 1 - 2 Iceland
1 | Ollfardh | 15 | 1 | SSJ2Luigi | 15 | 3 | AbhishekLFC | 5 | 3 | Ian Butler | 5 | 3 | Luxemburger | 5 | 3 | MARSUPILAMI | 5 | 7 | Dippofix | 0 | 7 | Ste117 | 0 | 7 | weirdskyfan64 | 0 |
Only two people predicted an normal time Iceland victory. Ollfardh and SSJ2Luigi are the winners of this match and score fifteen points.
Bonus question 3: How many matches in the round of 16 will be decided by a penalty shoot-out?
Only Switzerland - Poland was decided after kicks from the spot. Three people had this one correct: AbhishekLFC, Dippofix and Ian Butler. The other answers were 0 and 2.
Standings:
1 | AbhishekLFC | 520 | 2 | Dippofix | 485 | 3 | Luxemburger | 480 | 4 | Ollfardh | 425 | 5 | Ste117 | 395 | 6 | weirdskyfan64 | 315 | 7 | Luis Leon Sanchez | 305 | 8 | emre99 | 275 | 9 | Spilak23 | 245 | 10 | cunego59 | 210 | 11 | The Schleck Fan | 195 | 12 | Ian Butler | 175 | 13 | Croatia14 | 105 | 14 | Roextro | 95 | 14 | sutty68 | 95 | 16 | MARSUPILAMI | 30 | 16 | Smowz | 30 | 16 | SSJ2Luigi | 30 |
AbhishekLFC maintains his lead and even increases the gap. Dippofix benefits from the bonus question and moves back into second ahead of Luxemburger. Ollfardh got rid of Ste117 and is in no mans land at the moment. Also a three-way tie for sixteenth and last.
