Euro 2020 – Euro 2020 was supposed to start in 2020. However, due to COVID, the competition was delayed. It could finally start only in June of 2021. However, the name of the competition stayed the same, i.e. Euro 2020.

The top 24 countries compete amongst themselves to see who come out as champions at the end of this gruelling contest. The countries in this edition of the Euros are Italy, Wales, Switzerland, Turkey, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Russia, Netherlands, Austria, Ukraine, North Macedonia, England, Croatia, Czech Republic, Scotland, Sweden, Slovakia, Spain, Poland, France, Germany, Portugal and Hungary.

While this competition is for anybody to win, there is no question that France has the most balanced squad as well as one of the best players in the world in Kylian Mbappe.

Last year’s champions Portugal are also contenders with Cristiano Ronaldo still leading the charge at 36. Germany while having a young team will always be contenders due to their rich heritage.

England believe they can win this tournament as their fans chant ‘football is coming home’. Italy on the other hand might not have a lot of superstars but they certainly have a compact team as well as one of the best managers in the world in Roberto Mancini.

Let’s not completely discount Belgium from this conversation either. With ageing stars, this might be their last chance to win a big tournament and sign off with a win.
