We are halfway through the round of 16. No major surprises apart from Italy, though I think Switzerland deserved it. They will play against England on Saturday 6th. English squad had a tough game against Slovakia. They were fighting right up to the minute 95, when Bellingham scored the agonising equaliser that took them to the extra time. Then, Harry Kane appeared to score the second goal which sent them through to QF.

The other match of the day was a thrilling one during the first half. Spain scored an own goal which put Georgia on the lead. After a few minutes where Spain got panicky, they managed to calm down and Rodri scored a goal with a perfect shot. The second half was different, Spain kept on pressing to increase the advantage up to a final 4-1 at 90 minutes. Lamin Yamal and Niko Williams played a superb match. Next Friday 5th, Germany and Spain will seek a spot in semifinals.

Today, France and Belgium will play at 18:00 CET. We will see if De Bruyne and colleagues can make a shock to this Euro as France seems to be not as strong as before.

Later, 21:00 CET, Cristiano Ronaldo´s Portugal will play against Slovenia for a spot in QFs. Will Oblak be able to stop skilled Portuguese squad? It´s going to be a good match.

Lastly, I make an update regarding the round of 16´s bounty. I would like to apologize as I did not explain well how it works. There are 8 fixtures in the round of 16. The stacker who guesses the higher number of teams passing to QFs, will be the winner. Unfortunately, Spain has overperformed and none of the stackers thought the Spaniards could achieve the result from last night. Tiebreaker will not help. So, if two or more of stackers achieve the same number of teams going through to QFs, the bounty will be split between them. I will try to think about this issue for further bounties and consider other ways to add a tiebreaker.

In the next table, you can see your picks and how it stands at this moment.

I will keep you posted. Enjoy the beautiful game !
