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.

I feel like I'm match-fit, I'm ready. I'm sharp, I’m scoring goals, so yes, I'm confident in my levels going into this. Whenever I come away with Wales, everyone sees how happy I am, how passionate I am, and whenever I cross that white line with a Wales shirt on, I’ll always give 100%.
Supporting the Finland national team has rarely been a comfortable and enjoyable pastime. Last-minute fluked own goals and year-long winless droughts have all helped shape the image of an unlucky and unsuccessful country.We have certainly had some brilliant individual players and the occasional high but they have often been overshadowed by the team’s inability to qualify for a major tournament. Every other summer we’ve watched in disbelief when our Nordic counterparts are having the time of their lives at a World Cup or a European Championship while we are forced to watch the whole thing on TV. Every other summer we’ve bitterly asked ourselves: “When is it going to be our turn?”
Kevin De Bruyne knocked USA out of a World Cup.
It’s one of the greatest achievements in the world of sport: just how on earth did one of the smaller countries assemble the top-ranked team in the most popular game on the planet?
2 top team should be seated. Agreed.
Let’s go Czech’s!
Thank You FRiend! ⚽⚽
I think a Danish player just died on the field.
