• In two minutes the rest of the group describe the thing on the board to the person at the front

Two Euro ’16 activities:

The value for each face of the dice is:
1 = 1 goal
2 = 2 goals
3 = 3 goals
4 = 1 goal
5 = 0 goals
6 = 0 goals
The top two teams in each group qualify, along with the top four third placed teams.
In the knockout rounds, if the score is 0-0, throw the dice for each team again to get a result after extra time.
If the teams are still level, throw for each team once more to decide who wins on penalties. This time each face of the dice is the face value.
Results can be recorded in the work book.
