I am also glad that the Russian team won. but the more I liked the match the Netherlands vs Germany (2:3). in the game of two equal teams, there were beautiful goals, and drama (0:2 ; 2:2 and Germany scored the winning goal in 90 minutes).
euro
Currently there are many top teams in the euro like Spain, England, Germany, France and Holland. Personally, I think that England has a good chance but they haven't done their best under pressure, holland has a new rejuvenated team with some experienced players, France just won the world cup and they have they're confidence boosted and Spain has a great team but after how they played the world cup hard to say how they will do.

So gameweeks 3 and 4 will take place in the next 8 days as games are played in friday-saturday and monday-tuesday. I guess it's safe to say that teams who didn't won their game(s) in march then now it's probably perfect time to prove themselves..
Short preview:
Group A: with England not playing in june it's perfect chance for other 4 teams to start collecting valuable points if they want to finish second in the group. Czech Republic is currently rockbottom but luckily for them they've 2 upcoming homegames so who knows perhaps they'll find themselves level on points with England after monday's game ...
Group B: even if Portugal finds themselves from fourth or fifth place in week's time then it's still all to play for them but with Ukraine and Serbia also challenging for top2 finish then one of that trio probably gets next summer off
Also Ukraine hosts Serbia on friday so that should be intresting game.
Group C: Thanks to beating Estonia and Belarus at home in march N. Ireland is leading in the group. They've also said out that will be trying to get 12p from first 4 matches so i seriously hope that either Estonia or Belarus(or both) destroy their hopes of doing that in teams first homegame in this calendar year
Group D: Right now it looks like Ireland and Switzerland are going far away from others but luckily for Denmark they've decent chance of moving past Swiss should they take atleast 3p in next 2 games. Also h2h game between Georgia and Gibraltar is perfect for either team(or both) to get first points.
Group E: clearly most closest group yet as 4 teams sit on 3p. Azerbaijan is the only one yet to get single point so they'd be able to fix this make in 2 upcoming homegames vs Hungary and Slovakia
Group F: i believe L. Enrique said that long travels can be problem in this group so i guess it's intresting to see what they can(or cant) do in faroe islands
Group G: Austria and Latvia lost both games in march while conceding 5 goals in total so as they're hosting Slovenia now then perhaps they can ask from Oblak how to defend properly(if he's going to play ofc) ...
Group H: France and Turkey sit on 6p, Iceland and Albania on 3 and Andorra and Moldova on 0p - considering each pair goes h2h on saturday then all these games should be intresting(and crucial aswell)
Group I: compared to group E then here it's probably even more intresting situation with Belgium leading with 6p and 4 teams sitting behind them on 3p
Group J: just like in group H then in this group aswell teams sitting in places 1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6 are going head-to-head on saturday. Armenia and/or Liechtenstein have now golden chance to get first point(s) in Yerevan while it's probably intresting to see whether BHFANATICOS are doing something similar in Tampere just like they did in their previous awaygame in qualifiers back in 2017 in Tallinn ...

Belgium is strong now, but Russia will try to beat it at home. But I can also highlight the Netherlands team, which will play this Sunday in the final of the League of Nations with Portugal. Perhaps Ronaldo himself will want to win both trophies! =))
