Europei 2020, draw: Italy risks a group with France and Portugal

National

Mancini and a record-breaking Italy. Sacchi applauds: "So we are afraid"

Italy, group of iron risk with France and Portugal

Italy, seeded along with Belgium, England, Ukraine, Spain and Germany, will be in Group A and will play their three matches in Rome on 12, 17 and 21 June. Given that the other headquarters of the grouping is Baku and that Azerbaijan has failed to qualify, it will be necessary to see which second force it will find: the main risk is to immediately meet the world champions of France or the vice-champions of Croatia. It would be better if the Blues fished Switzerland or Poland. The greatest danger in the third band is represented by the Portugal of Cristiano Ronaldo, outgoing European champion. The other formations that could happen to Italy are Turkey, Austria, Sweden or Czech Republic. In the fourth band there are Wales and Finland plus the 4 winners of the March play-offs. Italy already knows that it will not face the winner of the B play-off (whose semi-finals are Bosnia-Northern Ireland and Slovakia-Eire).

National team, Mancini: "All good, you don't score 9 goals by chance"

Possible eighth in London or Amsterdam

The draw will not be final. Because based on who will go through the play-offs, the matches will be forced: Romania, in the event of qualification, will end up in Group C with Holland and Ukraine, Scotland in Group D with England, Eire in Group E with Spain. Finally Hungary in group F with Germany. Taking a look a little later at the hypothetical eighths, one can see that Italy, if it won its group, would play on June 27th in London against the third of group C, the one in which they already exist Ukraine and the Netherlands. In case, instead, he would arrive second he would meet, always on June 27th but in Amsterdam, the second of group B in which there are Belgium, Russia and Denmark. But perhaps, even for bad luck, it is good not to go too far.

The four bands of the Euro 2020 draw:

Urn 1: Belgium, Italy, England, Germany, Spain and Ukraine
