Germany, Netherlands and Wales are the only team with 50% or higher win ratio.

We're fucking massive.

[–] You_Gotta_Joint@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

How are Austria ahead of Scotland? Pretty sure we are 2-2-5. Goal difference?

Also, why isn’t it complete?

Surprised Denmark has only won 10 games despite winning the cup in ‘92 and achieving a semi-final last time.

[–] Clappingdoesnothing@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Typical. England have won most games without winning the bloody thing.

A third of all of England's Euro wins ever came in Euro 2020 lmao

[–] dontcarenotbothered@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

We’re proper shit at that tournament.

[–] NateJW@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Coulda just ended just shit honestly.

Don’t think there’s any other country’s media that overhypes the National team quite like ours lol.

!But obviously it’s coming home next year!<

[–] dontcarenotbothered@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Well we’ve at least won a World Cup and had some decent runs down the years. Aside from in Euro 96 and 21 we’ve been a disaster in the Euros. Knocked out at the group stage in 1980, 1988, 1992 and 2000, finishing bottom of the group twice. Failed to qualify in 1984 and 2008 and won only one knockout game that wasn’t held in England ever (4-0 vs Ukraine in Rome).

Beating you guys at Wembley in the final will forever be one our fondest memories

Considering Portugal were shit until 96, it's quite a good result

wtf we’ve only lost 6 euro matches?

guess it makes sense if we have a high percentage of making it out of the groups, as a loss eliminates us. still crazy

[–] SiMoN20000@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Iceland only lost 1...

[–] mcwolf@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

You love to draw

[–] afito@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Also the advantage of simply not qualifying if your team is ""proper shit"", Italy never lost more than one game at an EC even when you went out in groups. You even managed to get knocked out in groups without a loss in 2004. Germany in contrast always qualified but has a lot of ECs with 2 losses, often that infamous 2nd group stage game, and sometimes even had 2 losses in group stages (2000).

lol pls tell me ur joking Maria

The lac operon has a single promoter. The genes encode proteins that allow the bacteria to use lactose for energy.

Why would the lactose operon be switched on in the presence of glucose? There is already a source of energy, you fucking idiot.

This is basic biochemistry. Why the fuck would the operon be activated, does that make any sense?!??

[–] TheAmazingKoki@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Croatia doing better than Yugoslavia with 3 times as many wins is pretty impressive

[–] CoryTrevor-NS@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Keep in mind that from 1960 to 1976 the Euro was only a 4-team tournament, and from 1980 to 1992 an 8-team one.

While the first tournament Croatia took part in was composed of 16 teams until 2012, and 24 teams currently.

It's pretty crazy we have barely made it to any euros before 1996 and yet so high in these standings (Portugal by the end of the next Euros could potentially be 2nd in this list)

[–] enbeez@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

A short story of Denmark and Turkey shitting the bed.

How dare you leave out the footballing powerhouse of Northern Ireland

[–] rivalius13@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Both Ireland cut, anti-Irish racism!

[–] hmmokby@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Türkiye will actually participate in Euro 2024 for the 6th time. Euro 1996, Euro 2000, Euro 2008, Euro 2016, Euro 2020.

3 defeats in 1996, quarter-final in Euro 2000, Euro 2008 was semi-final and semi-final match, there were only 3 players on the bench, 1 of whom was a goalkeeper. It always reached the semi-finals with last minute goals. It participated in Euro 2016 thanks to a very interesting combination in the last match of the qualifiers. 6-7 different conditions had to be met. Euro 2020 was attended with great expectations and is the 2nd worst European Championship tournament performance in history.

There is always action. It's not ordinary. There is a lot of excitement and surprises.

Asterisk on Denmark - the National team was amateurs only until 1971, up until then, as soon as you became a professional footballer, you were ineligible for the National team. It took a further ten years for professional football culture to properly take hold and dictate ambitions and training. A lot of our "all time" stats are affected by literally fielding a bunch of amateurs long after most other nations had gone full professional.
