The UEFA Euro 2024 debut of France, one of the tournament favorites and 2018 World Cup winner and 2022 World Cup runner-up, highlights Monday’s slate of games in Germany.
France will take on Austria in Düsseldorf in the day’s third game. France manager Didier Deschamps attempts to become the first person to win the World Cup and Euros as both a player and coach. Austria – under the guidance of manager Ralf Rangnick – could present a challenge for one of the tournament favorites, as it has lost just once in its past 16 matches.
In Monday’s first game, the Ukraine plays Romania in Munich, which also hosted the Euro 2024 opener between Germany and Scotland. Ukraine is making its fourth consecutive appearance in the Euros, and reached the quarterfinals at UEFA Euro 2020. Romania is relatively inexperienced, but did go unbeaten during Euro qualification.
Belgium’s golden generation is aging and will look to redeem themselves after a brutal showing at the 2022 World Cup, in which the Red Devils didn’t make it out of the group stage after finishing in third place at the 2018 World Cup. Slovakia enters its matchup with the group favorite having won a pair of Euro tune-up games by 4-0 scorelines (over San Marino and Wales).
