The first match of Euro 2020 will be live within few hours. The program has been rescheduled almost after twelve months after the European countries started lessening the strictness on pandemic law. The faceoff will take place between the dark horse Turkey and four-time world cup winner Italy. Both the teams will exhibit their power and skill to start their journey of Euro 2020 with a win.
Details of Group A
The first match of Euro 2020 will be performed between the two heavy-weight teams. Giorgio Chiellini will be leading the national team of Italy, while experienced BurakYılmaz will be the captain from Turkey. This year Euro 2020 will witness a lot of young talents from both the team. Group A also consists of Switzerland and Wales. The wait is over; some exceptional football is waiting for the fans after so many days.
The venue
Ambitious and experienced Italy will be a great challenge for the Turney in Euro 2020. With FIFA Ranking 29th, Turkey will face Italy in the football match today (ตาราง บอล วัน นี้, this is the term in Thai) at Olympic Stadium, Rome, in presence of 16000 spectators. It will be a great match to watch after literally locking down fans from such a high-tension tournament.
Prospective Turkey side vs heavyweight Italy
After a disappointing performance in Euro 2016, the Turkey team is arriving at the show with a bunch of new-generation footballers. During the qualifier matches, the Turkish team has shown their excellence under the coaching of SenolGunes. No doubt, with ultimate defense strength the team conceded only 3 goals in the qualifying matches. The 35 years old captain is ready to challenge the four-time world cup champion.
Italy has not done much in Euros, apart from winning the Euro cup in 1968. Though, Italy has won the runners-up position twice in the Euros. It will be a huge loss for the team as Marco Verratti will miss out on today’s match due to a knee injury. However, he will be back from the second game to seal the mid-field. With a stronger and experienced side, Italy will again jump for sealing their position in the group legs.
Maintaining Covid-19 norms in the Euros
12 venues hosting the matches will be responsible to strengthen the pandemic norms during the European Championship. The stadium will admit only 25% of the capacity to curb the spread of the Coronavirus. The spectators apart from having a valid ticket need to show one of the three documents as proof. The first document from Italian Health Authority stating that they have been vaccinated; the second one is the negative Covid-19 report within 48 hours and the final one is the Health authority’s document featuring your recovery from the virus. Additionally, measuring the body temperature and coronavirus symptoms will also be checked while entering the venue.
Statistics show Italy has not lost to Turkey in the last 10 faces off. However, the young and enthusiastic Turkish team will be looking for a breakthrough, while Italy shows confidence enough to win the game.
