6/27 through the Euros, and day 7 began with Ukraine battling North Macedonia. Ukraine would jump out to a 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Andriy Yarmolenko and Roman Yaremchuk. North Macedonia would press back when Ezgjan Alioski would have his penalty kick saved by Georgiy Bushchan, but the ball would come back out and Alioski would reach it first to score a goal. Ukraine would do enough to keep North Macedonia from scoring again. Their win puts them second in the group for the time being while North Macedonia fall to fourth. Ukraine also netted IoannesNix 34 Euro Buddy points.

Hazards Light the Way to Victory
Denmark would step onto the field for the first time since they lost to Finland 0-1 after Christian Ericksen suffered a heart attack on the field of their opening match. Inspired to do better, Yussuf Poulsen would give them the 1-0 in the second minute. Thorgen Hazard would strike one back for Belgium to even the game. As his brother Eden came on as a substitute for Thorgen, we’d see Eden assist the go ahead goal scored by Kevin De Bruyne. Belgium find themselves top of the group while Denmark remain in the bottom spot. Denmark earned Fortuitous 6 points, while Belgium earned Praeceptor 33 points.

Austria Depay’s the Penalty for a Loss
Netherlands would earn a rather quick lead when Memphis Depay stepped up in the eleventh minute and converted a penalty kick. Denzel Dumfries would then put the game away for certainty with a 67th minute goal. Netherlands sit first in the group assured of a spot in the Round of 16. Austria fall to third and will battle Ukraine for the second spot and a guaranteed spot in the next round. Netherlands performance gained Scriptor 30 points.

Today’s Player of the Day is one of two to earn the highest points of the day, and the highest single day total in the tournament to date. With 27 points on the day, Colubris finds herself back in seventh place. If France can show her a proper showing with some Euro Buddy points, she’ll surely be back in the mix.
Sleep well my Crias.
