From the semi-finals onwards, all matches kick-off at 11pm…

The Euros, quite probably the biggest and most fiercely fought tournament in national team football after the World Cup, has now entered the knock-out stages. If you lose, that’s it, you’re on a flight back home for back slaps, sheepish grins and talk of “next time eh?”

Poland, Scotland, Albania, Serbia, Croatia, Ukraine, Czechia, Hungry, Italy, Denmark, Slovakia and Georgia have already been eliminated – but who’ll be joining them next as we move into the quarter-finals? Spain and Germany look strong but not invincible; Switzerland have already claimed some big scalps on their cup journey; France and Belgium have been less than convincing in the group stage; Portugal, Slovenia, Romania, Netherlands, Austria and Türkiye all have a lot of ground to cover before they silence the critics; and then there’s England. It really could be anyone.
