Looking back on the Group A battle

Let's look back at the Group A battle.

Italy and Switzerland were expected to be No. 1 and No. 2 in the group, but Switzerland came in third with a goal difference and Wales in second. These three teams advanced to the best 16.


Before the tournament, Italy was worried, but when it was over, it won three wins. Moreover, 7 goals and 0 goals. Aggressive soccer was attractive and defensive.

It was a big win with 3-0 in the first match against Turkey. 3-0 even against Switzerland, which seemed to be the next difficult enemy. He made a strong impression on the new Italian football with a large number of points, which was not so much in Italy so far.

FW Immobile also met expectations and scored two goals. And midfielder Locatelli's two goals against Switzerland were impressive.


Wales has 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss. They are on par with Switzerland in terms of points, but they are in second place, surpassing Switzerland in terms of goal difference.

Although he lost to Italy, he drew with Switzerland and won 2-0 against Turkey. Wasn't it almost as planned?

The veteran Bale is dedicated to assisting and is involved in most goals. It can be said that the team is more cohesive than the previous tournament.


Switzerland was disappointed to finish in 3rd place, although it remained in the 16th place as expected.

In particular, I expected that the match against Italy could be a draw or a victory, but I lost 0-3. The challenges of the current Swiss team have been revealed.

There were players such as Seferovic, Embolo, Shaqiri, and Xhaka, but I couldn't get rid of the impression that they weren't organized as a team.


In Turkey, the 0-3 defeat in the first match against Italy had a big impact on the subsequent fights.

In the qualifying, he had only 3 goals in 10 games, but he couldn't defend with 8 goals in 3 games.

Similarly, in the qualifying, he defeated France at home and drew away, but that power was finally over without being demonstrated in this group stage.
