Currently, the quarter-finals of both the Euro and the Copa America have concluded, and the top four teams in both competitions have been decided.
According to statistics, out of the 12 completed Euro knockout matches and 4 Copa America knockout matches, 8 matches ended in a draw after regulation time, with 5 of them finishing 1-1, and another 3 ending 0-0.
Furthermore, 6 matches were decided by penalty shootouts, with only Spain and England advancing to the next round after extra time, defeating Germany and Slovakia respectively.
On the one hand, this indicates that the strength of various national teams in the world is becoming increasingly close. However, on the other hand, it also reflects a more conservative approach from teams during knockout rounds, leading to a significant decline in the entertainment value of the games.
