England favored to win first ever European Championship
The home of soccer hasn’t had much success on the World or European stage in their history of international play, with England's only win coming in the 1966 World Cup. It has never won a European Championship.
England's best finish came in 1996, when Gareth Southgate missed a penalty kick in the semifinals against Germany but went on to win the bronze medal. Twenty five years later, Southgate avenged the loss in a way by being the head coach of England for its Round of 16 victory against Germany.
Now that England has got by the Germans, the English have a favorable path to the finals. Their quarterfinals match is against Ukraine, and then they’ll face the winner of Czech Republic and Denmark in the semifinals.
Belgium and Italy set to face off in key quarterfinals match
If there’s one quarterfinal match that you won’t want to miss, it’s the one between Italy and Belgium. Belgium entered the tournament as one of the top favorites to win it all, and after an impressive group stage performance by Italy, it has established itself as a force to be reckoned with.
Italy and Belgium are third and fourth on the odds list at +325 and +650 respectively, and the team to advance will take on the winner of Spain and Switzerland. Italy is set as the +130 favorite in its match.
