I don't mind that Portugal won and I don't mind there being more teams but surely more groups would have been the better way to go than this daft 3rd place shit.
It was nice having some lesser sides in the competition and I don't think they were the reason it was poor.

i feel the fact portugal won it by only finishing 3rd in their group means teams will be ultra defensive, knowing they could scrape through with draws and still win the whole thing

Not the greatest end to what was not a great tournament. Think the 24 teams thing was a good idea but I still think it's wrong that Portugal even got out of their group. It's not bitter or anything like that, it's just that Turkey and Albania went out and won their final game knowing that they needed to to have any chance and this bunch of wank scrapes through with three draws. It was undeserved is all and it's the one thing they should fix for 2020 which will undoubtedly be awful. Hey everybody let's have a party at all of our houses at the same time. High five UEFA. said the same at the time. Games won should come before goal difference especially when everyone is playing different teams

I'm pretty sure I read that you had an 80% chance of going through with 3 0-0 draws. Which says a lot about why it's a shit format.
