Again, why do people assume not every final is a possibility before the tournament has even kicked off?

 

This is why.

So? Any team can finish first and second in their group, can't they? In theory every team can meet every other team in the final, even if they are in the same group.

Well yes, after the first round not everything is possible anymore, but why would you assume where teams finish in their group and then say "assuming its possible obviously, havent checked"?

Spain and France ( just as an example) in all likely hood will meet before the final.... so them meeting in the final is pretty much impossible.

Erm because i think as the two tourny favourites i think they will finish top of their respected groups? Not difficult tbh.

 

Also the second part is clearly in reference to the fact i havent checked who plays who after the groups other than England will likely get Spain(just been on radio). Never thought i would have to explain such matters of the blindingly obvious like.....

Eh? If you're assuming Spain and France both win their groups the earliest they could possibly meet is the final. :lol: :lol:

 

Not true.... atleast according to that graph depending on how they do in the groups they could meet in quarters or semis.

 

Unless iam reading it wrong which is entirely possible.
