Day 4,973, 08:08 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by Gali.

Hi all,

Apologies for the delay on this article. I’ve been very busy irl for the past few days. I did a post on the friends feed asking people to post their predictions…if you haven’t, then try and get them in asap please!

After the most exciting and surprising of Ro16s, here is what everybody predicted-

Ebrietas
Wales vs Denmark (2-0)
Italy vs Austria (1-0)
Netherlands vs Czech Republic (2-1)
Belgium vs Portugal (0-0)
Croatia vs Spain (1-3)
France vs Switzerland (3-0)
England vs Germany (1-3)
Sweden vs Ukraine (1-1)

Dougal
Wales vs Denmark 1:0
Italy vs Austria 2:1
Netherlands vs Czech Republic 2:0
Belgium vs Portugal 3:1
Croatia vs Spain 0:2
France vs Switzerland 1:1
England vs Germany 1:2
Sweden vs Ukraine 2:0

Noel
Wales 1 vs 2 Denmark
Italy 2 vs 0 Austria
Netherlands 2 vs 1 Czech Republic
Belgium 2 vs 3 Portugal
Croatia 1 vs 2 Spain
France 1 vs 0 Switzerland
England 1 vs 1 Germany
Sweden 1 vs 0 Ukraine

CC
Wales vs Denmark 2-1 AET (1-1 FT)
Italy vs Austria 2-0
Netherlands vs Czech Republic 2-0
Belgium vs Portugal 1-2
Croatia vs Spain 0-2
France vs Switzerland 2-1
England vs Germany 1-0
Sweden vs Ukraine 1-1 (Ukraine win on pens)

Sadly no predictions from football genius Apples this week🙁

The Actual Results
Wales 0 - 4 Denmark
Italy 2 - 1 Austria
Netherlands 0 - 2 Czech Republic
Belgium 1 - 0 Portugal
Croatia 3 - 5 Spain
France 3 - 3 Switzerland (Swiss win 5-4 on penalties)
England 2 - 0 Germany (still in disbelief)
Sweden 1 - 2 Ukraine




The Table

As always, the points system works thus:
Exact score: 3 points
Correct result: 1 point
Incorrect result: 0 points

So, the table as it currently stands-

1. Dougal (2 exact scores = 6pts, 2 correct results = 2pts) == 18pts overall
2. Noel (3 correct results = 3 pts) == 12pts overall
3. Apples (missed this round = 0pts) == 11pts overall
3. CC (3 correct results = 3pts) == 11pts overall
4. Ebrietas (2 correct results = 2pts) == 5pts overall

Very unlucky for those who predicted a Swedish-Ukrainian draw…overall a very tough round…except for Dougal who appears to possess Paul the Octopus-like foresight.




Next Round

As I said, please try to get your results in before the game! Even if they are late, please send them in and I’ll try to work something out.

As before, if you think that a match will go to penalties, then put a draw down (irrespective of the result of the penalties). If you think a match will finish in extra time, then you just put the normal result of the game.

Here are the games you need to predict-

Switzerland vs Spain
Belgium vs Italy
Czech Republic vs Denmark
Ukraine vs England

Thanks guys, good luck!
