Euro 2024 Surprises and Factors
Euro 2024 has already seen some one-sided affairs, with Germany, Switzerland, and Spain dealing heavy defeats to Scotland, Hungary, and Croatia respectively in their opening group stage games. However, unlike in previous years, goal difference may not be as much of a concern for the defeated teams, as it is the fifth criterion considered in the event of two or more sides finishing level on points.
“Instead, head-to-head record is the more decisive factor, meaning that a team with a massive goal difference could theoretically be regarded as inferior to a side that has scraped a couple of one-nils and lost another game heavily. This could lead to some unexpected results and standings in the tournament.”
