Will the match end with a score of 2-1?
It seems possible that this could happen. I actually feel that Italy can get at least 3 goals in this match but indeed with a fairly good defense from Albania and so many wasted opportunities that cannot be converted into goals it seems that this is still difficult and I don't feel there will be more goals in this match.
Italy played very well where they always pressed and did not provide space for Albanian players to develop their schemes which made Albania continue to defend during this match but indeed on the other hand this also did not have any impact on Italy's attack because Albania also realized that when they compensated for Italy's open play then it was already a loss where they would get an attack that could have been converted into a goal so for now Albania will definitely continue to survive the rest of the match that is happening now even though they are behind because they have no other choice unless they want to attack all out and leave their defense empty.
The second half was without another goal and in typical italian style they didnt play an extreme powerplay but tactically finished the game with a standard 2:1. typical italian style. That could end up being a problem for them because they didnt score enough goals. It depends on how they play against croatia and spain, if one of those games is a draw, then the goals scored in all the games could end up being the deciding factor. Normally Scamacca must scored the 3:1, but the goalkeeper did a very good job for albania. Next week will show if they are the best team in this group and i think spain will do it. Croatia and italy are fighting for 2nd place and italy should be the favorite in this game.
Today im looking at the teams from holland and england, i think both have a good chance of making it to the european championships and i think they could make it to the final.
Italy team is lacking quality in the squad, as defending champion I expected them to play more pressing abs score more goal against an average team like Albania, Albania was able to score Italy first in the game. I see Spain and Croatia qualifying to the knockout stage, Italy can't play Croatia with this squad, Croatia is better than them.
Today's game, Poland vs Netherlands, Netherlands will win with Poland 3 nill, Poland won't score in this encounter, the Holland defenders are the best in this tournament, only lewandosky can't break their defend.
England vs Serbia, England will score over 3.5, while Denmark vs Slovakia will end in a draw.
