We are gradually coming to the climax of the European Championship. A competition that has lived up to expectations.
The #EURO2024 has delivered some doses of mouth watering performances, upsets, disappointment and last minute drama. One of the foremost upsets was having the reigning champions Italy ousted by Switzerland in the round of sixteen to progress to quarterfinals. Also we see a progress record that France has been able to maintain in almost three important competitions in the last six years; always knocking out Belgium from competitions that they have met at knockout stages.
The England team managed to survive a late drama with Jude Bellingham coming to their rescue in the 94th minute to snatch a 1:1 draw against a resilient Slovakia and going on to win in the match at extra time.
So far, we have all been entertained wholesomely and hope the quarterfinals deliver much more than we have witnessed.
