[Euro 2016 - Knockout Stages]

As I said before. Iceland will dispualify France. I do hope that Belgium will also disqualify Wales tonight so that they disqualify Portugal at the semi final. It is unbelievable to have a team claiming a title without succeeding in defeating a single opponent within the 90 minutes of regulation time! Not to mention that the quality of the football they played is despicable! My bet is that whoever wins the match between Italy and Germany will go on to win the cup in the end.

[Euro 2016 - Knockout Stages]

Iceland threw England out. Italy dominated Spain. And now 3 teams stand out as candidates to win the cup. Belgium, Italy and Germany. Italy and Germany confront eachother in the next match. Whoever goes through gets the cup. For most people Italy is the best candidate but I have to remind everyone that Germany has yet to concede a goal in the tournament. Belgium will probably have little trouble getting through Wales and then either Poland or Portugal. The strong feeling I have is that Iceland will also disqualify France in the next match to get disqualified in the semi-final by eother Italy or Germany. At this time I am betting that one of the teams making it to the final will be Belgium. For the other one I have the feeling it will be Germany and not Italy though Italy is a very strong contender.

[Things to consider before the season starts]

Incorrect. Cameron has resigned. Therefore, no laws can be passed until a new government is elected in October. According to article 50 of the EU the application for exit must be submitted now for the appropriate negotiations to begin. Also as per article 50 the nation submitting the application is considered as EXITING IMMEDIATELY. The negotiations are meant only to make the transition smooth and not to APPROVE the exit. Which means that the applicable law from the date of the applcation till October is the one valid NOW. Which calls for 30% participation to the national teams' obligations for the non English players. There is only one solution to the issue. Temporary work permits until it is resolved.

I'm sure that by now everyone knows about the result of the Brexit referendum. Here is a result that you may have not considered. And a result that will affect your betting. 332 players will have to leave England because they do not meet the requirements of the law for their work permit. More than 100 play for Premier League Teams and they will have to be dismissed. The greatest name at this time that will have to leave is Payet. I.E. the balance of power for next season will change. And this is something to be thought about closely before the next bet is placed.

[Euro 2016 - Knockout Stages]

The first phase is over and 16 teams have advanced to phase 2. Some of the matches are easy. Some are not to be touched in reference to betting.

Italy-Spain is a no bet one. It is very likely that it will get to the penalty shoot out where Buffon and De Gea will decide the outcome.

Hungary-Belgium. Another one that will be decided by the goalkeepers. This one more by Courtois than Kiraly.

Croatia - Portugal. I would bet on Croatia going through. Portugal did not manage to gain even one victory.

Germany - Slovakia. That's an easy one.

Switzerland - Poland. Definetely Poland.

Wales - N. Ireland. This is a match of different circumstances. It's between British teams and they will try to settle their own accounts regardless to the overall Euro setting.

England  - Iceland. If England finds a way to score on their opportunities they have a chance. Iceland scores cynically making the best of one or two opportunities.

France - Ireland. The Irish want vengeance for the famous handball. However, I do not think they stand a chance. They will fight that much harder but France is a far superior team.
