A look at things to watch for in opening rounds of Euro 2020 qualifiers
ZURICH - Five things to watch for in opening two rounds of the Euro 2020 qualifying competition which will be played between Thursday and Tuesday:
The remaining four finalists will be the top team in each division of the Nations League which has not already booked their places through the conventional qualifying competition. However, Santos, rebuilding the team after their round of 16 exit in Russia, waved away suggestions that Portugal no longer need their most capped player and all time leading scorer.
Loew responded with drastic measures, saying he would no longer call up stalwarts Jerome Boateng, Mats Hummels and Thomas Mueller because he needed to look to the future. Roberto Mancini’s team face a potentially tricky group which includes Bosnia and Greece although they start with relatively straightforward matches at home to Finland and Liechtenstein.
“This could be when Zaniolo makes his debut,” said Mancini. “It’s important for young players to play a few games, that’s how they improve.”
