Euro 2020 Postponed To 2021

The Euro 2020 draw took place at the beginning of the year in Bucharest, Romania as defending champions Portugal found themselves in the group of death alongside the World Champions France and Germany. However, the rise of the Coronavirus pushed the competition to 2021.

Many have predicted Italy to be among the favorites to win the Euro 2021 as they stormed back into the competition demolishing every opponent that was cast into their way, and with the coronavirus hitting the Italian nation hard this scenario is perfect for Italy to win. For those who remember Italy went into the 2006 World Cup competition being under a massive amount of pressure, following the disaster that happened in their country, Italy went on and won the competition. Italy has been drawn alongside Wales, Switzerland and the dark horse’s Turkey.

Belgium, Holland and France are also among the favorites to lift the trophy, Portugal who have the likes of Ronaldo, Joao Felix, Ruben Dias and a few have a tough group but they might make it out of the group.
