If the introduction seemed a bit severe on Poland and Denmark, who face off in a largely inconsequential match at the Swissporarena in Lucerne at the same time as the other Group C game tonight, I apologize. A drawback of a 16-team tournament is the harsh reality for teams that lose their first two matches, knowing there’s nothing left to compete for. That’s about all there’s to mention on that topic, which explains why this match will only be broadcast on ITVX.
To use a well-worn saying: sometimes luck is more valuable than skill. No one would claim England performed well against France, yet their loss followed by a victory over the Netherlands means, unless an absolute catastrophe occurs against Wales on Sunday, the Lionesses should advance from Group D in second place. Why is this favorable? Being on the opposite side of the draw from Spain, who have shown exceptional form in the tournament, could be very beneficial if reaching the final is the aim. But can this fortunate streak continue?
