Going for a 0-1 for England. I'd prefer Italy to win though, so if they actually win I can also be a bit happy despite not winning the prediction game
BQ: yes

The moment we have all been waiting for. 250 points distributed, one match for 100 points, a bonus questions for 100 points and two bonus questions for 25 points. In order to keep the suspense I won't reveal the results for the individual items, instead we'll go directly to the final leaderboard.
Italy - England 1 - 1, Italy wins after penalties
Bonus question 1 Italy
Bonus question 3 4
Bonus question 7 No
Italy won the UEFA Euro 2020 after penalties, meaning it's not coming home then. There were four penalty shoot-outs in the tournament and the final did not see a VAR intervention.
So without further ado, in thirteenth and last place, someone who thought the game ended after the group stage:
Spoiler jph27 350 points
Italy - England Did not participate
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 Did not participate
Bonus question 7 Did not participate
In twelfth, to no one's surpise:
Spoiler Marcovdw 500 points
Italy - England 80 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 25 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
Very close to 100 points for the first question, missing out by a penalty shoot-out and thus only eleventh:
Spoiler valverde321 550 points
Italy - England 60 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
We have a tie for ninth place, the first one alphabetically:
Spoiler AbhishekLFC 560 points
Italy - England 20 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
The only person to score 100 points for the final match by a perfect prediction:
Spoiler TheManxMissile 560 points
Italy - England 100 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
He was in the lead at one point, but the end result of eighth is what counts:
Spoiler Ollfardh 590 points
Italy - England 20 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
Seventh place to the only guy to score nothing on the final:
Spoiler Ulrich Ulriksen 595 points
Italy - England 0 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 25 points
Bonus question 7 25 points
Sixth place goes to:
Spoiler Aequitas 620 points
Italy - England 20 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 25 points
The biggest gainer of the final day in terms of points and places comes in fifth, mainly due to predicting Italy outright:
Spoiler cunego59 625 points
Italy - England 40 points
Bonus question 1 100 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 25 points
A bad final prediction can cost you dearly, as fourth is:
Spoiler Nemolito 690 points
Italy - England 20 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
Onto the podium, in third place we have:
Spoiler kandesbunzler26 695 points
Italy - England 80 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 25 points
Bonus question 7 0 points
That leaves only two people. Finishing as runner-up:
Spoiler df_Trek 735 points
Italy - England 40 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 25 points
Which means our winner, with 740 points (only a five-point difference!) is the one and only:
Spoiler FreitasPCM 740 points
Italy - England 80 points
Bonus question 1 0 points
Bonus question 3 0 points
Bonus question 7 25 points

Thanks everyone for playing! We'll see if I'm still around next year for the 2022 World Cup, as long as we don't get a new pandemic postponing everything again

Wow, I kept clicking those spoilers expecting to read my name way earlier Didn't think I'd jump all the way up to 5th, but I am kinda proud of that Italy prediction. Thanks a lot for hosting Marco, it's been fun!

Oh wow, was not expecting to win this after lurking for so long behind the leaders.  At least Portugal won something symbolically.
Cheers all and thanks for hosting once again, Marco, hopefully we’ll be here again next year! |

Congrats to Freitas and thanks for being an excellent host Marco
We started well, lost our way a bit, then made a comeback and then dropped off completely. Ah well, there's always next time!
Italy deserving winners

Congratulations to Freitas and thanks to Marco for hosting.
I especially like the bonus questions, they make it even more exciting (just one VAR-intervention away from winning, could have changed everything until the last penalty). |

Well my prediction of England winning was so close, but I did mention how they always choke, and losing on Penalties just seems very fitting for England (ofc the racism isn't warranted). I thought Italy were going to win the tournament until Spinazzola got injured, and England were looking pretty strong too. I think my "North American " showed as I didn't do that well overall
