Euro 2020 is a multi-city event organized in Amsterdam, Baku, Bilbao, Bucharest, Budapest, Copenhagen, Dublin, Glasgow, London, Munich, Rome and Saint Petersburg in the current state of affairs.

Italian football has seen its timetable particularly modified in recent weeks due to the mass epidemic of the virus.

Inter Milan played Ludogorets behind closed doors in the Europa League on Thursday evening and their title clash with Juventus on Sunday will also take place in an empty stadium in Turin.

Italy is the most affected country in Europe, with 17 deaths from the virus and 650 infections. The epidemic is concentrated in a small group of cities in the northern regions of Lombardy and Veneto.

Italy’s government banned all sports events in six regions of the country, including Piedmont, where Juventus’ hometown of Turin is located.

There are five closed-door Serie A matches this weekend, raising concerns about Italy’s ability to open the summer tournament.

Leicester striker Jamie Vardy considers England Euro 2020 return

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy is considering coming back to the England team for Euro 2020.

First-choices Marcus Rashford and Harry Kane are both having injuries, and 33-year-old Vardy would be an ideal replacement for coach Gareth Southgate if either does not yield to fitness in time for the tournament in June and July. Euro Cup fans can purchase England Euro Cup Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.

Vardy, who discharged from England’s responsibility following the World Cup in 2018, is the Premier League’s highest scorer this term with 19 goals, following his dual in Leicester’s 4-0 success over Aston Villa on Monday evening.

With Tottenham’s Kane getting better from a hamstring process he underwent in January and Manchester United’s Rashford out with a back problem, Vardy has arisen as an option.

Who knows? Gareth and I both agreed the door would still be open for whatever reason and then we would sit down and have a talk about it, Vardy, who has seven goals in 26 appearances for England, said after the victory over Villa.

We have not had the chat or anything yet and nothing has been spoken about. The lads Kane and Rashford are out injured, but they are looking to be back in time. So only time will tell.

Southgate about Kane and Rashford

Southgate said last week both Kane, who returned to training on Monday, and Rashford were on track in their recoveries but would not close the door on a recall for Vardy.

Brendan Rodgers hopes Leicester can kick on from the confidence-boosting 4-0 victory over Villa, with Harvey Barnes joining Vardy in scoring twice and boosting their claims on a place in next season’s Champions League.

The Foxes had won just one of their former seven Premier League competitions, but persist in third and reinstated an eight-point advantage over fifth-placed Manchester United in the clash for a top-four finish.

Rodgers saying

“The previous few competitions we have not been at our level. In terms of attacking, we were much improved this evening. After the first goal we went on and played very well,” said Rodgers.

“Early on you might see our self-confidence was not where it has been. The only way you recover that confidence is hard work and these performers have been excellent.”

The loss leaves Villa rooted in the demotion zone and there was little from the visitors to suggest they can save themselves in the final 10 competitions of the season.

No side has accepted more goals in the Premier League this term than Villa and it was easy to see why as Leicester passed up a host of simple chances from poorly defended set-pieces early on.

We started the game quite well but then we did not defend corners well enough and we had a big mistake for the first goal, said Villa Boss Dean Smith. Individual mistakes are costing us. We need to get better.

Key player: Raheem Sterling

Sterling said It would be an important step. In our country, there are still many people who are a little locked in on themselves. I think such success could push them to open up.

But, in any case, an English victory for the Euro, whatever the composition of the team, would have a positive impact on the whole country and in all areas.

England has probably not had a player since Wayne Rooney who was so advanced in his development at only 19 years old.

Group C - Austria will face Holland, Ukraine and the Play-off winner D or A

Austria finished second in a tamed qualification group dominated by Poland. The victories over Slovenia and North Macedonia in the fall of last year were enough to allow the team to score free to become an automatic pointer.

However, Austria was drawn to a competitive group C for the final alongside the Holland, a dangerous Ukrainian team and the winner of track A or D of the playoffs. Austria fans can buy Austria Euro Cup Tickets online.

Franco Foda’s team is certainly stronger than the outfit that stank the place for the last few euros and they will expect to qualify for the round of 16 at least as one of the four best teams in third place. Well, that’s what they said four years ago, and look how it turned out.

The Holland is a nation that has a feeling of belonging to international competition. The absence of these bright orange jerseys from Euro 2016 and the 2018 World Cup was shocking to the neutrals, not to mention how the Dutch themselves must have felt.

In Virgil van Dijk, the Holland arguably boasts the best defender in European football. His partner in the tournament - unless injured - should be the very talented Matthijs de Light, who, at only 20, could continue to receive the distinctions that his compatriot receives every week.

Holland

The Dutch came second in their qualifying group, one point behind their German rivals. While Northern Ireland fought an admirable fight to disturb the first places, it was finally a race of two horses because the Holland and Germany lost only one match in stride.

Holland vs Austria

Time: 21:00

Date: Thursday 18th June 2020

Stadium: National Arena

The Dutch teams of the past were able to call on some of the best offensive talents of the day and often ended up being a top team. This iteration could have the opposite problem, with midfielders Georginio Wijnaldum and Frenkie de Jong in front of the aforementioned central defenders, the threat of attack they can offer is rather low in comparison.

Memphis Depay had thrived as a central striker on this side, contributing 16 goals in his last eight international matches, but when he broke his ACL in late 2019, he was excluded from the tournament this summer.

Instead, Ronald Koeman - if he still had to be in charge at the time the tournament takes place, which is not inevitable for Dutch coaches in the past - could turn to Ryan Babel, 33, or an exciting adolescent talent at Newcastle linked Myron Boadu.

Ukraine enters Euro 2020 in a burning form with a living legend as a coach; Andriy Shevchenko. The former Milan star is the second most capped player in the country and the top scorer of all time.

Shevchenko led his nation to first place in his qualifying group, beating Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal in the first place. Ukraine was one of only five teams to remain undefeated throughout qualifying, having won six of its eight matches.

Premier League viewers know West Ham’s Andriy Yarmolenko of West Ham on the right flank and Oleksandr Zinchenko, who is most often deployed in the central midfield for his country, rather than the left rear lunge in which he often found himself in Manchester City.

But Ruslan Malinovskyi, Atalanta’s midfielder, 26, also catches the eye as he knits the piece in the center of the park and never hesitates to tear a long-distance effort from a dead ball or of an open part when he can work on his left.

The joint hosts of Euro 2012 cannot do worse than their last outing in a major tournament - the 2016 European Championship in France when they lost each match without scoring a goal.

The last members of the Austrian group come from one of the five options; Romania, Georgia, Belarus, North Macedonia or Kosovo.

Romania is part of the track A teams, and if they win in this phase, they join group C. The other four teams are on track D and if Romania does not progress, the victorious nation of Georgia, Belarus, North Macedonia or Kosovo will join the Holland, Ukraine and Austria.

Georgia and Belarus have won three victories between them in qualifying while Austria is familiar with North Macedonia, a team they have already played (and beaten) twice in the previous round.

Kosovo should be watched after competing well in the English group and frightening the Three Lions in a crazy 5-3 match at St Mary’s. Romania also impressed at times by finishing behind Spain, Sweden, and Norway during the qualifications, with Ianis Hagi (21), the son of the great Gheorghe, who seemed to have a special talent for attacking the middle ground.

Euro 2020: Can Belgium and Its Excellent Generation Go All the Way?

In Bucharest, Euro 2020’s unique organization with twelve host cities in twelve different countries, seeding and political separation of Ukraine and Russia left Belgium with few surprises during the tournament’s final draw.

In Group B, Belgium was paired with Denmark, Russia, and Finland, an easy draw that should allow the Belgians to progress to the knock-out phase with the confidence and credentials of a championship-winning outfit. Euro Cup fans can purchase Belgium Euro Cup Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.

Belgium past performance

In 1980, Belgium last played the final of the European Championship, but at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico West Germany and its superb marksman Horst Hrubesch proved too strong for the Belgians, winning 2-1 in the dying minutes of the game.

At the last European Championship, Euro 2016 in France, Belgium disappointed. In the easy half of the draw, Belgium steamrollered Hungary 4-0 in the round of sixteen with a leading role for Eden Hazard, but that superlative performance was deceptive.

In the previous eight, Belgium was found out by Wales. In a 3-5-2 formation, the Welsh exposed the Belgian defense.  

The team of coach Marc Wilmots had learned little from its opening game against Italy when it had no response to the same formation.

Exit Wilmots, enter Roberto Martinez. The Spanish coach opened his tenure with a 0-2 friendly defeat at home against his native country, a game in which many of Belgium’s deficiencies as a second-tier nation surfaced.

Two years later, those doubts were dispelled when Belgium won the bronze medal at the World Cup in Russia in swashbuckling style after a superb group stage, a lucky escape against Japan and a tactical masterclass against Brazil.

Belgium previous record

In the Euro 2020 qualifiers, Belgium preserved a perfect record, winning its ten competitions with a goal difference of +37. The squad was imposing at home and applied good game management abroad.

Not even Roberto Mancini’s Italy, which amassed 30 points as well in its group, toppled Belgium’s performance and record. 

Yet the qualification campaign could have been misleading. In the group, I San Marino, Cyprus, and Kazakhstan were minnows, Scotland a perennial loser and Russia a faux challenger.

Belgium was never tested and its qualification was a simple and logical consequence of the team’s superiority in all sectors of the field in every single game. 

Despite its impressive qualifying record and a third-place finish in 2018, Belgium has weaknesses.

Martinez’s squad does not have the depth that both France and Germany can boast of.  Those countries can field two first teams, Belgium cannot.

After the World Cup Marouane Fellaini and Moussa Dembele retired and Martinez did not retain Radja Nainggolan, which leaves precious few reserves, Simon Mignolet, Thomas Vermaelen, Youri Tielemans, Nasser Chadli, Michy Batshuayi, and perhaps newcomer Leander Dendoncker, who can deputize in the coach’s demanding 3-4-3 system.

Martinez has other worries as well. The backline is aging: Vincent Kompany, Vermaelen, Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld have all passed thirty and their backups lack the same quality and experience.

Belgium would not enjoy home advantage. A proposed national stadium in Brussels never materialized.
