For the first time in six years, we have a tournament taking place in the summer, without any restrictions on attendances. Coupled with the fact it’s being held in Germany, one of the great football nations, and it all means that Euro 2024 should be fantastic.
It feels like an open tournament, with England, France and Portugal all having a great chance of glory. Never write off the Germans, either, especially on home soil.
Scotland showed in qualification that they’re not to be underestimated and will hope to get out of their group for the first time in their history at a major tournament. In this issue, we focus on both home nations involved at the Euros, cast our eye over the hosts and sit down to chat with Portugal and Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot. Euro 2012 winner Juan Mata also answers your questions about his career, including scoring in the final.
