How will postponement of Euro 2020 impacts England, Belgium & others teams

It was declared by UEFA that the European Championships had been postponed. Euro 2020 was set to take place among 12 June and 12 July in 12 capitals across Europe.

However, it is now scheduled to take place one year later because of the coronavirus outbreak. England Vs Croatia Tickets can be grabbed from our global event ticket sales market.

Who will this help and whose chance of glory will be hindered as a result of this unavoidable decision?

Impact of Euro 2020 postponement on England

Given England’s current injury crisis up front, the delay of the Euros by one year to 2021 could really benefit Gareth Southgate’s side.

Currently his three first-choice centre-forwards are all injured.

Harry Kane last played on New Years’ Day, Marcus Rashford has been out since the 15th of January and Tammy Abraham missed four of Chelsea’s last five games with an ankle injury.

Hopefully, from an England perspective, they will all be fit and firing by June 2021. There is also another key issue to consider.

Jordan Pickford is currently England’s number one having started 19 of the last 20 competitive internationals. However, he is massively out of form at Everton.

Sheffield United’s Dean Henderson and Burnley’s Nick Pope are both playing superior right now but neither were likely to be terrified in with very restricted international capability.

Now however, both have an additional 12 months to stake a right. Football fans England Euro Cup Tickets can be grabbed from our global event ticket sales market.

Impact of Euro 2020 postponement on Belgium

This postponement might be catastrophic for Belgium. The Red Devils over third at Russia 2018, their best-ever finish at a World Cup.

However, time is running out for the Golden Generation as nearly all of their key players are in their 30s. Thomas Vermaelen is 34, Vincent Kompany is 33. Dries Mertens and Jan Vertonghen are 32.

Axel Witsel, Toby Alderweireld are 31. Also, their two very best players, Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne will be in their 30s by next summer.

Roberto Martínez’s side already have the tough task of playing Denmark in Copenhagen and Russia in Saint Petersburg. This will surely be the Golden Generation’s last chance of glory.

Belgium are 5/1 to win the European Championships.

Impact of Euro 2020 postponement on Croatia

Similarly to Belgium, Croatia’s stars are not getting any younger.

Zlatko Dalić’s side historically reached the World Cup Final in 2018, beating Nigeria, Argentina, Iceland, Denmark, hosts Russia and England.

They could not go all the way though, losing 4-2 to France at the Luzhniki Stadium. They are already weaker since then. Football fans can book Croatia Euro Cup Tickets through our trusted online platform.

Instantly after the tournament, goalkeeper Danijel Subasic and centre-forward Mandzukic discharged from global football.

This was replicated by the fact they finished lowest of their UEFA Nations League group and, only just, scraped through qualifying.

But the postponement to the European Championships has enormously mired their chances of achievement.

New first-choice goalkeeper Lovre Kalinić as well as centre-backs Domagoj Vida and Dejan Lovren are over 30. As are Ivan Perisic, captain Luka Modric and Vice-captain Ivan Rakitić who have 321 caps between them.

None of their key players are under the age of 27 so this ageing squad could well be even weaker come 2021. Croatia are currently rank outsiders at 30/1 to win UEFA Euro 2021.
