Everyone expects France to do well and after Covid and Qatar will look forward to the return of proper atmosphere
Harry Kane or Kylian Mbappé. Yeah, I know: really pushing the boat out here.Harry Kane. An elite goalscorer at the top of his form , there will be an opportunity for goals in group C.Harry Kane . Simple. Clean. Classic.Kylian Mbappé. He doesn’t involve himself over-much in the game, but he is a fine finisher and France are set up to play to his strengths.Photograph: Dean Mouhtaropoulos/Getty Imagesis an achievement for Ukraine but they are capable of much more.
Heorhiy Sudakov is one of Europe’s best young playmakers: his vision, timing and weight of pass form an exquisite package, and the sought-after 21-year-old from Shakhtar should see the queue of suitors lengthen by the end of Ukraine’s campaign. The Georgia striker Georges Mikautadze, prolific in Ligue 1 with Metz, could make a bigger name for himself too.
An event that feels as it should: a coming-together between tens of thousands of supporters from different nations, held in a perfectly located country that has proved it can put on a show. The atmospheres at games in Qatar, Russia and, of course, the Covid-struck Euro 2020 often felt removed and other-worldly. The hope must be that this summer brings a timely reminder of tournament football at its very best.
