00:07Back to Soccer, and these are the keys of the semi-finalists of the Euro Cup 2024.
00:13Spain will face France, and the Netherlands will face England.
00:18The most striking thing here, beyond the clashes, comrades, is that there is a drought of goals here in this edition.
00:25England is going to win, by the way, against the Netherlands 1-0.
00:28Why? Because Lewis Hamilton beat Verstappen in the Formula 1.
00:32So, that's it.
00:34But since when didn't Maestro beat him? We'll get into that debate in a moment, please.
00:38Or maybe that stings the Dutch, and that's where it comes from.
00:42That there is also a drought off the grid.
00:44And it turns out, we already said it, that there is a low scoring rate in the Euro 2024.
00:51This is what has happened in the last editions, with 24 participating teams since 2016.
00:56To date, there is the average per game of 103 goals in 2016.
01:01Well, it improved. It improved in 2016.
01:04Exactly, in 2021 there was an increase of 135 goals.
01:09Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo was a fundamental factor in that 2021.
01:13But what happens after that in this 2024?
01:16Well, 108 goals once again, a tremendous drop.
01:19And averaging 2.2 goals per game.
01:22What's going on, Maestro, with this Euro without goals?
01:26Look, we can also relate to what we had the last great football event, which was the Qatar World Cup.
01:30I was left with the idea that that World Cup, because it has to be played on December dates,
01:36because of the intense heat in Qatar,
01:38made that in that World Cup, I really liked that World Cup, it was well played,
01:43we saw the players very fresh, because they were in the middle of the season,
01:46well done preseason, and they got very well in that half.
01:49Now we return to the traditional scheme of playing it in the summer,
01:51in which they are very exhausted and arrive a little fresh.
01:54We have seen figures who have still closed the season well,
01:57and who at this moment are really suffering.
02:00Harrigate, Cristiano Ronaldo himself, Bellingham, Mbappé, Griezmann.
02:06Several of them, yes, I think that affected.
02:08Here you see, for example, the previous Euro, which was played,
02:12which had to be postponed for a year due to the same pandemic,
02:15there that also happened, that they had stopped playing for a period due to the pandemic itself,
02:19that after that Euro, remember that it was played first in several countries,
02:23less travel, I don't know if everything can be influenced,
02:26now they have been concentrated for practically a month,
02:28they have already been dismissed, and several of them already want to go on vacation,
02:32there are several factors.
02:32And there is also the football, Fercevallos,
02:34because we return to the same thing, at this moment we see too closed schemes.
02:38And that Cristiano Ronaldo arrived four years older too, right?
02:42This Euro Cup, that's how it weighs.
02:43Fercevallos, it also weighs that more of the account is being played,
02:47because we have had several extensions too,
02:49would it have to be removed, the extension, the extra time to go straight to penalties?
02:52For me yes, Jackie.
02:53For example, right?
02:54I think that while FIFA, UEFA and all the confederations
02:58continue to jam, because it is the word of matches and matches and matches and matches,
03:03then make them shorter, right?
03:05Now the justification is that five changes are allowed, right?
03:09It is true that the referees also have the instruction
03:11not to add 10-15 minutes, which was also crazy,
03:15but for me, yes, the extension is left over, I say,
03:19except for what happened in Germany-Spain,
03:22where Spain won it in the last breath,
03:25it is rare that we see, and I think that if we take it statistically,
03:29there will be very few matches that are resolved in extra time.
03:32Now the teams, sorry Oscar,
03:35are looking more to stay and get to penalties to solve,
03:39they risk little, so let's go straight to penalties.
03:41I am loving the Copa America format.
03:43Yes, in Copa America there is no extra time, exactly.
03:47But how do we benefit from the show, master?
03:50More show than penalties, please, man.
03:53Matamata, let's go.
03:55Although on the other hand, the teams considered less strong,
03:59the weak ones, well.
04:00Well, you also give them an opportunity.
04:02No, that's a question.
04:03The top ones, the strong ones, don't want that,
04:05because they know that a less favored team
04:07is going to bet on trying to get to penalties, where anything can happen.
04:10Ask Argentina, huh?
04:11If he wasn't happy with penalties, knowing that the draw is the draw.
04:15Exactly.
04:15Look, it's the opposite case.
04:18Ecuador to Argentina, he goes to extra time,
04:20and there they take him out to Argentina.
04:21Ecuador was playing much better.
04:24Also in penalties you have to show the hierarchy of a big team.
04:28Several schemes have been tried.
04:30When the golden goal appeared,
04:31which in theory was going to encourage saying,
04:33I want to finish it once, and it was the opposite.
