England and France were apparently joint favourites and yet they've both been dreadful so far.

France haven't even scored a goal in their first two matches!

I never thought England were favorites, on paper? sure. but with Southgate? no way.

I told my friend before it started that Germany was winning it, last tournament for Kroos and likely Muller, host nation, redemption and fuck you bayern arc for Nagelsmann. it's lazy script writing, but compelling.

England is always favourites in the eyes of British media though...

France is lacking the player they've built a team around so I wouldn't be too harsh on them today, it's not like they had to win.
