Euro 2020 Group F: The Group that lived up to the title “Group of Death”

Group F’s Worst Moment – Hungary losing in the final moments

To pinpoint the saddest and most tear-jerking moment, you would have to go back to the final six minutes of Group F’s Matchday 3 encounter between Germany and Hungary.

Hungry were minutes away from knocking their opponents out of the cup and progressing through to the next round but then the introduction of Leon Goretzka proved instrumental in ending Hungary’s run.

All English Premier League

His goal in the 84th minute felt like the world ended and one of the sweetest Euro 2020 stories ended in heartache.

Surprise Factor

Germany is a sleeping giant and honestly, their opponents have poked the bear too many times and they could really hit their best form at the right time of the tournament.

Them beating Portugal 4-2, especially after losing the first game and going down by one against Ronaldo and his wrecking crew, was truly a turning point. The previous champions were left dumbstruck after being totally exposed by great tactics.

How bad was the fourth-placed team?

Not bad at all. In fact, they were the best of those who lost and somehow better than some of the third-placed nations. Due to being placed in the Group of Death, Group F, the difference in class showed at important moments for the other three group participants.

The Hungary boys were also the only fourth-placed team not to lose more than one game – with Russia the only team who placed last that won a fixture.
