The immense former English striker Gary Lineker, who became a columnist, gave an interview to
Ouest-France
.
According to him, England is not bad, but it rather prepares the future. And above all,
Gary wants to avoid meeting the Blues too prematurely.
Football is a simple game: 22 men chase after a ball for ninety minutes and in the end France wins in the end, Gary? Here are some declassions of the former great English center-forward.
“England will be competitive, despite their youth and inexperience.
But we consider here that this Euro is an apprenticeship for the future, and in particular the 2022 World Cup. I would be surprised if we won the trophy, but it is not impossible and for the first time in a long time, I have the pleasant feeling of having hope for my country before a big tournament (smile).
Once out of the group, I hope we won't cross France too quickly, but as late as possible.
This can happen in the round of 16 and it would be very difficult.

"Better to say that it's grated for us"
I can't resist the urge to share with you Benoît Poelvorde's prognosis for the Belgian team (he doesn't know anything about football but he knows how to probe the soul of his people)
“I'm not going to follow the Euro, I don't know anything about it! I knew there was football when I saw that there were players' heads on the beer cans! So I said: “Hey, it's the World Cup!” I was told: “No, it's the Euro!” But as I know that at the World Cup, we have was not bad, now I know we have to say that we have chances of having the Euro. But I also know that every time we have a good chance of winning something, it's very Belgian, we wallow like shit from the start! (Laughs.) We have all the ammunition and everything, and we manage to fall into a hole! "Ha, shit, I sprained my ankle! Finished!" The number of times I heard that: "This time we have everything to achieve the feat" and then the next day, all day: "But how is it possible, how did we screw up like that? "It's called the missed acts, and it's really very Belgian! But if we are told that we have no chance, that we are going there with nothing to lose, you go like a fart, and sometimes that The more I am told that we have chances, the more I worry! It is better to say that it is grated. In general, the Belgian is illustrated by his spirit of contradiction! "

As 20 Minutes wants to help you shine in the evening, you will be delighted to learn that the teammates of Pukki, the only vaguely known player on this team, can be cheered on by their home fans under the sweet name of "Huuhkajat".
Not much else to tell you about this team playing its first international competition, in the sense that the last time I saw Finlance play, it was against France in 1998
10:42 am: The Belgians safe from a bad surprise without De Bruyne and Hazard?
The best team in the world in the Fifa rankings and that of the seum do not approach the Euro in optimal conditions.
Witsel is still recovering from a big Achilles tendon injury, De Bruyne will be out until the eighth, and Hazard is not 100% like for two years and should be content with the role of joker.
To see if that's enough against Russia, whose level is always difficult to devalue before the big day.

You probably know that Gareth Bale would question the next step in his career, even though his loan to Tottenham did not prove to be a great success.

Mbappé is going to give us back a goat all summer
So it's a bit of a bastard to only talk about that, because the ITW granted to Mbappé to France Foot on the theme of speed is madly interesting, but we are forced to retain the extracts where he talks about his future.
Balance sheet?
We're still going to talk about it all summer.
" My future ? I have to make the right decision, which is difficult, and give myself every chance to make the right decision. I'm in a place where I like it, feel good. But is this the best place for me? I don't have the answer yet. I'm not crazy: I know that a project with or without me is not quite the same for the club. But PSG understand my request. Probably also because he knows that I will not sneak or treat ”

THE FIRST POLEMICA OF THE EURO
.
We're going to talk about VAR, of course.
For his introduction to the Euro, video refereeing quickly caught on: from the opening match against Turkey, the Italians unsuccessfully claimed a penalty for a hand in the box at the end of the first period, throwing the first major controversy of the tournament. Two actions have fueled the controversy, as the rule on hands was recently amended by the International Board (Ifab), the body responsible for the laws of the game.
In the first period, on a strike from Ciro Immobile (21st), the Turkish defender Çaglar Söyüncü intervened, blocking the ball with his arm, which was then stuck to the body at the level of the torso.
The referee, the Dutchman Danny Makkelie, did not flinch.
A second, more contentious action followed just before the break
: overflowing on the left, the side Leonardo Spinazzola centered and his Turkish counterpart Zeki Çelik deflected the ball with his arm, this time clearly taken off.
The Italians surrounded the referee to claim a penalty but the latter, after consulting his video assistant, decided not to award it, angering the Nazionale players, who felt that Çelik had artificially increased his surface area. bodily.
In fact, according to the new Ifab directives, "any contact of a player's hand or arm with the ball does not constitute a fault".
In particular, the Board invited the referees to "use their judgment" rather than whistling systematically.

BUONGIORNO TO TUTTI
.
We open this live in Italian to celebrate the beautiful victory of the troop in Mancini last night.
The Italian coach who has already had to calm the enthusiasm of local journalists on the rest of the adventure;
"Favorite Italy? There are only six games left (until the final) ... It seems a bit long to me, there are some really strong teams. I repeat, we are satisfied to have had a good game. We really wanted to start well, to entertain the public who were in the stadium as well as those who were in front of the TV. The players had the merit of having a lot of patience, against a team that left us little space ”
If like us, you were stuck in front of this mammoth semi-final between Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal on Friday evening, your Euro has not yet really started.
We can therefore consider that this Saturday is a footballing renaissance with three matches on the program all over Europe, from the public in the stadiums, and already the first fire that comes to us from Italy after the great victory of Squadra Azzurra in its stadium. Olympic against Turkey (3-0).
