Placement Doesn't Matter (For Now)
So what if you had GRE as the Group A winner and CZE as the Group A runner-up? You get the same 10 points (5 per) as if you correctly had it CZE and GRE. Sounds great, right? The problem arises is that you have the teams in reverse order in your bracket. Now, if you have both CZE and GRE losing in the quarterfinals, then this does not matter. However, let's say you picked a championship final matchup of GRE and ESP (you picked correctly as runners-up of Group C-- I hope I didn't jinx Spain), the last 2 EURO champions. Because you misplaced GRE, you can't get both in the final since now they would meet in the semifinals (if both win their quarterfinal matches). So the good news is you are guaranteed to get 1 team in the Final you picked; the bad news is you can't get both. So that's your potential penalty.
