Euro 2020 Team Previews: Group E

Spain:

The biggest news of La Roja's Euro 2020 squad selection is that 180-cap defender, Sergio Ramos, has been dropped. A mainstay of Spanish tournament football since 2006, the 35-year-old veteran has been replaced by Aymeric Laporte, who recently switched international allegiance from France to Spain. That said, Ramos isn't the only big name not making this latest squad, either. Kepa, Sergi Roberto, Sergio Reguilon, Hector Bellerin, Jesus Navas and Dani Carvajal all miss out from the defence. Ansu Fati, Barcelona's new great hope, is left out through injury as well. Most notably, and perhaps most damaging, Lucho has perhaps subconsciously decided to not call a single Real Madrid player up to the national team. It' s a move that shocked many in Spain and due to Luis Enrique's outward support of the Catalan independence movement, a move that will be scrutinized with a fine-toothed comb for its geopolitical motivations. Spanish football might no longer have the likes of Xavi and Iniesta but in this current generation, there are plenty of exciting players, like Dani Olmo and Pedri, who can turn a game on its head. In Thiago Alcantara, Spain have a metronomic who can lead the side from deep midfield. The Liverpool no.6 is one of the elder statesmen in this young Spanish set-up and the rest of the team will be looking to him for his quiet leadership, as a player who guides others with the way he dictates play.

Ferran Torres adds attacking guile, Gerard Moreno is an underrated forward, and both Pau Torres and Jose Gaya will be looking to showcase their ample talent in front of rumored big summer transfers to Manchester United and Barcelona, respectively. While this may not be the team of old, Spain does have all the talent at its disposal to go far. That said? With all the decisions made and the microscope firmly affixed upon Luis Enrique, anything less than a deep run will be seen as an abject failure. The pressure is on. Can La Roja seize it and thrive from it?

Sweden:

The delay to Euro 2020 has caused something of a headache for Sweden, confusing a side that previously struck success with a clear defense-first, counter-attacking style. Now they’re struggling to transition towards a new identity, provoked by the emergence of a more attacking generation of talent.

The Euro 92 semi-finalists strolled to Euro 2020 qualification with only one defeat, but results since then reflect the ongoing battle faced by coach Janne Andersson in figuring out his new crop of players. Out are stalwarts like Sebastian Larrson and Ibrahimovic, and replacing them is a crop of new untested new talent. Having previously been a nightmare for top teams to break down, Sweden were steamrolled by France and Portugal in the Nations League; their only win came at home to Croatia, the rest ending in defeat. Yet if Andersson can balance better forward play with some of their old quality at the back, then he can tap into a huge amount of potential. Alexander Isak’s encouraging second campaign with Real Sociedad – where he is now the first-choice upfront and has been scoring freely in 2020/21 – offers huge cause for optimism, while young playmaker Dejan Kulusevski has stepped up at Juventus to prove his capabilities at the highest level. It may be a tournament too soon for Sweden to fully reach their potential, but in a relatively favorable draw, they may be able to advance. Sweden plays attacking, forward-thinking football, and may be able to catch opponents on their heels with their speed and their tenacity. In a wide-open group? Anything is possible for this crop of constantly growing and developing talent.

Slovakia:

Slovakians can enjoy the fact that their team has made it to consecutive European Championships – not least as 2016 was their first appearance in this competition – but, in truth, the past two years have hardly been inspiring. The good news is that their main target of reaching Euro 2020 was accomplished, via play-off victories over the Republic of Ireland and their northern neighbors. The bad news is that their overall form is far from inspiring. Slovakia began the qualifying campaign with former Czech international Pavel Hapal in charge, but a monotonous style of play resulted in some depressing results across 2020: Nations League home defeats to Czech Republic (1-3) and Israel (2-3) led to relegation from League B. Under Hapal’s hapless guidance, they squeezed through their Euro 2020 play-off semi-final on penalties in Bratislava, but it was clear that the team was struggling. So, four weeks before the final away to Northern Ireland, Slovakia’s FA made the bold decision to sack Hapal and appoint Stefan Tarkovic as interim coach. The match in Belfast was more of a battle than a sexy footballing display, but crucially, Slovakia won, as substitute Michal Duris found a goal in extra time. So, they’re here at least, but now it’s all guesswork. Since both coaches have used several combinations of players, only a few of whom can claim to have played well throughout, it’s tough to predict how Slovakia will look at Euro 2020. Tarkovic has taken the gig permanently since that brief yet successful caretaker stint. He hasn’t had much time to make his side tournament-ready, and there’s a fear that the Falcons will be easy fodder for their trio of tricky Group E opponents. With a squad lacking in star names, Slovakia need their key players to continue delivering when things get tough. Martin Dubravka is reliable in goal, although his lack of football at Newcastle this season is as unfortunate as it was unexpected, and Milan Skriniar and Marek Hamsik bring quality and top-level experience. In Euro 2020 qualifying, as well as in the 2020/21 Nations League, Slovakia frequently lacked ideas at the attacking end – although that is hardly surprising, given their shortage of quality options upfront. Competing among the very best national teams in Europe, there will be no place for feeble football here. Courage, invention, and unity will be key if Slovakia hopes to outfox their group rivals.

Poland:

Three years have passed since Poland’s disastrous World Cup showing in Russia, and it’s difficult to say that confidence has returned. Poland topped their qualifying group with a couple of games to spare, but an underwhelming 2020/21 Nations League campaign has tempered expectations somewhat. Narrow qualifying victories against Latvia, Israel, and North Macedonia were achieved, but collecting results against the stronger sides in the latter tournament – Italy and the Netherlands, in particular – proved a far more difficult proposition altogether. It wasn’t necessarily the defeats, but rather the manner of the performances which failed to inspire fans. They didn’t inspire much confidence among players, either: when asked about coach Jerzy Brzeczek’s tactics after November’s 2-0 defeat to the Italians, captain Robert Lewandowski stood in silence for a deafening nine seconds before finally crafting a response that still managed to indirectly criticize his boss. With a breakdown in the relationship between the team’s undisputed star man and its coach, unsurprisingly it was the latter who came off worse. FA president (and legendary former forward) Zbigniew Boniek wielded his axe in mid-January, replacing Brzeczek with Portuguese boss Paulo Sousa. Following his appointment, Sousa immediately reached out to his skipper and heavily praised his recent individual successes – keen to avoid the tensions that cost his predecessor his job. The litmus test, though, will come in the performances, and given his late appointment, the former QPR, Swansea and Leicester boss hasn’t much time to get the team set-up to his exact specifications. It meant that March’s World Cup qualifiers (a win, a draw, and a defeat) had to be partly treated as trials for the Euros, with the added jeopardy that Sousa’s job could have been at risk had he failed.

For some older members of the squad – Lukasz Fabianski, Kamil Glik, maybe even Lewandowski himself – this tournament might be the last chance to attain something special with the White Eagle on their chest. Others will see it as their opportunity to stake a claim as the future of the team. Either way, it’s hard to argue against the fact that, on paper, this is the strongest Polish side in years. That said? Paper tends to lie. There's a reason you still play the games.

La motivación de Cristiano: los 8 récords que tiene pendientes

Cristiano Ronaldo pulveriza récord tras récord: máximo goleador del Real Madrid, de la historia de la Champions, de dicha competición en una misma temporada, doble campeón de Europa en un mismo año, cuatro Balones de Oro… A cualquiera le resultaría difícil mantener la motivación con un palmarés de títulos colectivos y plusmarcas individuales tan extenso como el que ostenta Cristiano. Pero si por algo se ha caracterizado el luso a lo largo de su carrera es por una infinita voracidad que le ha empujado a batir un registro tras otro. Y aún le quedan retos por acometer. He aquí ocho récords o hitos que tiene al alcance.

» Récord de goles en un partido de la Champions

Máximo goleador de la historia de la Copa de Europa con 103 tantos, a Cristiano Ronaldo se le resisten dos récords goleadores. El de hat-tricks y el de más goles anotados en un partido. El del Atlético fue su séptimo triplete (contando los cuatro goles al Malmoe), los mismos que Messi. Respecto al segundo guarismo, anotó cuatro goles al Malmoe en la 2015-2016 y el récord está en cinco en un mismo encuentro: los que anotaron Messi al Leverkusen en la 2011-2012 y Luiz Adriano con el Shakhtar Donetsk al BATE Borisov en la 2014-2015.

�� Ganar dos Champions seguidas con el mismo equipo

Una maldición persigue a los campeones desde que la Copa de Europa se transformó en la Champions en 1993: ningún equipo la gana dos veces seguidas. Sin embargo, sí ha habido tres jugadores que han escapado a la maldición. Desailly (Marsella 93 y Milán 94), Paulo Sousa (Juventus 96 y Dortmund 97) y Etoo (Barcelona 2009 e Inter 2010).

» Ser máximo goleador de la Champions por sexta vez

Los 100 goles anotados en la Copa de Europa han hecho de Cristiano el máximo goleador de la competición en cinco temporadas, otra estadística en la que está empatado con Messi. En la presente campaña, Messi lidera con once goles, pero el portugués está a solo uno de distancia y sigue vivo en la competición.

» Partidos jugados en Champions

Cristiano Ronaldo suma 138 partidos jugados en la Champions League, el quinto jugador más experimentado en la máxima competición continental. Tiene por delante a Giggs (141), Raúl (142), Xavi (151) e Iker Casillas, que ostenta el récord con 164 encuentros. El portugués necesitaría jugar dos temporadas más que el de Móstoles para rebasarle.

» Ser cinco veces de oro

El museo de Cristiano en Madeira exhibe ya cuatro Balones de Oro y otras tantas Botas de Oro al máximo goleador de las ligas europeas. Nadie ha conquistado cinco veces ninguno de los dos trofeos. El segundo se le va a negar este año (debería remontar 13 goles a Messi en cuatro partidos y tiene delante a otros 13 jugadores), mientras que el quinto Balón de Oro lo podría añadir muy pronto a su palmarés: ya es el principal candidato a conquistar el galardón de France Football en 2017.

» Doblete de blanco

Liga y Copa, el sueño que el madridismo ansía desde 1958. Cristiano ya sabe lo que es conquistarlo: lo logró en 2008 con el Manchester United.

» El récord de Greaves

Los 364 goles marcados en Premier y la Liga sitúan al portugués como el tercer máximo goleador de la historia de los cinco grandes campeonatos europeos (España, Inglaterra, Alemania, Italia y Francia). En la mirilla tiene a los dos futbolistas que le preceden. El alemán Gerd Müller (365) y el inglés Jimmy Greaves (366).

» Ser el máximo goleador de la historia de la Liga en una temporada

En 2011 se convirtió (con 40 goles) en propietario de un honor que, desde que Zarra (38 goles) lo consiguiera en 1951, sólo Hugo Sánchez había conseguido igualar en 1990. Messi apenas tardó un año en superarlo (50 goles en la 2011-2012). El portugués se quedó en 48 en la 2014-2015.
