Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo moved those two Coca-Cola bottles on Monday, the Euro 2020 press conferences have been filled with weird bottle antics. This is by far the weirdest trend I’ve ever seen that will be one of the big stories of these Euros.
Looking at North Macedonia's obscure warmups heading into its match against Ukraine, there is no surprise it later lost. As fun as it looked, with the players racing up the pitch and passing the ball between each other using upturned cones, it didn't seem like the appropriate warmup for the Euro 2020 Group C match on Thursday.
Denmark, playing with all the verve and commitment that comes with paying tribute to a fallen talisman, played just about the perfect first half against No. 1-ranked Belgium on Thursday. Then Roberto Martínez pulled out his trump card and it became apparent why Belgium is ranked as the best team in the world.
European soccer's governing body UEFA has responded to Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo's removal of a Coca-Cola bottle at a Euro 2020 news conference by telling teams they have contractual obligations towards tournament sponsors.
Ronaldo moved Coca-Cola bottles aside as he sat down to speak to the media on the eve of Tuesday’s Group F opener against Hungary in Budapest, which Portugal won 3-0.
El Parken Stadium de Copenhague hoy fue una gran olla de emociones. Dinamarca volvió a salir a un campo de juego tras el desgarrador paro cardíaco que afectó a Christian Eriksen, el sábado 12 de junio, para enfrentar a Bélgica, y casi toda la energía que brotaba en las tribunas fue para rendir tributo al futbolista, que hoy se recupera en el Rigshospitalet de la capital danesa.
On Wednesday, Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku announced that his team planned to kick the ball out of play in the 10th minute of the game against Denmark to pay tribute to Christian Eriksen. The Eriksen tenth minute moment on Thursday was as beautiful as you could imagine.
BUCHAREST — Andriy Yarmolenko grabbed a goal and an assist as Ukraine beat North Macedonia 2-1 on Thursday to boost their chances of reaching the European Championship knockout stages and leave their opponents' hopes hanging by a thread.
Yarmolenko put Ukraine ahead from a corner in the 29th minute, popping up at the back post to beat Stole Dimitrievski with a side-footed finish after latching on to Oleksandr Karavaev's flick.
Italy favorites to win Euro 2020? I’d argue for Gli Azzurri. Italy picked up its second victory in Group A and secured a spot in the knockout stages after comfortably defeating Switzerland 3-0.
It was an unexpected hero who bagged a brace for Italy as Manuel Locatelli got the double to secure the three points. The Sassuolo midfielder had never scored a brace for club or country before Wednesday.
Juega poco, pero cada vez que lo hace, Gareth Bale demuestra que es un talento excepcional. El "11" de Gales hoy, por ejemplo, fue vital en la victoria por 2-0 de los Dragones sobre Turquía, en el Grupo A de la Euro 2020.
Su performance fue casi perfecta, en gran parte a las dos asistencias que registró. ¿Qué le faltó? No errar de manera tan catastrófica el penal que tuvo en sus pies.
¡¡La falló!! ⚽️
A dangerous trend is taking place at the beginning of the Euros with some of the sponsors of the tournament. Brands that spend millions for the most important UEFA event at the national team level are being denigrated by soccer stars. It happened on Monday with Cristiano Ronaldo and Coca-Cola, and Tuesday the same thing happened again.
