Football is not about winning games or titles.
If football fans are going to look at it from this perspective, then who is going to lose?
You don’t support a team because it wins most of the titles, you support a team because it has world class players or that it worked hard to reach to a major tournament.
Many world class players left this Euros from the group stage but made remarkable appearances.
World’s best player Robert Lewandowski took Poland to another level since Lato’s and Żmuda’s astonishing era in the 70’s and 80’s.
Slovakia’s Marek Hamšík who took his team to the first World Cup ever in 2010 and for a second appearance this Euro.
Turkey’s Burak Yılmaz and Hakan Çalhanoğlu weren’t lucky enough when they were placed in a tough group, Turkey had a better tournament back in 2008 when they reached semis.
The two goalkeepers of Scotland with 20 years of experience in football Craig Gordon and David Marshall finally made an appearance in a major tournament, definitely they will never forget such moment.
Legendary striker Goran Pandev from North Macedonia wrote history when he took his nation to the first major tournament and scoring their first goal ever.
The Hungarians did an amazing performance against Portugal, France and they were about to qualify to the next round and knock out Germany in the group of death.
Finland made their first appearance ever, winning their first game against Denmark.
Football is more than watching a team winning, in my opinion, existence is much more important.
