Officially called the "2018–20 UEFA European Football Championship final tournament," that mouthful is traditionally pared down to "Euro 2020" or, even more succinctly, the "Euros."

This is the 16th edition of the tournament, which is designed to crown the top international team in all of Europe. After years of qualifying matches, we're down to the final 24 teams, broken into six groups of four for the group stage.

How to watch it: ‘You turn the TV to CBS on Saturday to see a new Racing Series, the SRX. Saturday night the first ever SRX race will be in Stafford with Helio Castroneves, Bill Elliott, Tony Stewart, Willy T. Ribbs, Paul Tracy, and local track legend Doug Coby. My brother and my nephew will be there.

Group F is the group of death. France, Germany, and Portugal is as tough as it gets.

It had been reported that the Czech Republic was changing the English-language version of its name to Czechia. Here we see that the real new version of the name is Czech Replublic.

Probably the world's only replublic.

With 24 countries in, it's almost easier to list those which did not make the cut:

Greece, Bulgaria, Albania, Serbia, Bosnia, Slovenia, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Norway, Ireland, Iceland, Malta and Luxembourg.

Also Kosovo but I don't know if they are allowed to compete. Maybe Cyprus is considered a European country and it's missing. Also Andorra--do they compete?

Yes, the first goal was an OG, but I think it was intentionally struck that way. I think the last offensive player to strike the ball should get credit for a goal.

Turkey 0-3 Italy: Azzurri begin with a bang
The Italians laid down a marker in the opening fixture of EURO 2020 with their biggest ever win in the competition, but they were forced to bide their time in a frustrating first period. Wasteful finishing and a moment of brilliance from goalkeeper Uğurcan Çakır to deny a powerful Giorgio Chiellini header meant it was level at the break.

It did not stay that way for long after the restart. Eight minutes into the second half, Domenico Berardi drove into the area and thumped in a low cross of such venom that Merih Demiral could not adjust his body to deflect it clear, instead inadvertently sending it into his own net. The Azzurri were up and running.
