[Football- Euro U21] 22.6/ 18:00 Czech Republic - England
In the U21 European Championships, which started on Wednesday on the fields of Georgia and Romania, the first skirmishes have already taken place, and today the games start, among others, in group G, in which, apart from the above rivals, there are also Germany and Israel. Both the English and the Czechs met in the qualifying group. Then the English turned out to be twice as good, beating their rival 3-1 at home and 2-1 away. As a result, they scored 25 out of 30 points, winning the group. The Czechs took 2nd place and played a play-off with Iceland for a pass to the Euro, winning 2-1 on the road and drawing goalless at home. In preparation for the tournament, they later played 4 friendlies against Portugal, Belgium, Norway and the Netherlands, losing 2 of them (Portugal 1-5; Norway 0-4) and drawing 2 (Belgium 0-0; Belgium 1-1 Netherlands). As you can see, they did not impress in these skirmishes with efficiency, scoring only 2 goals.
England, after winning the group, also played 4 friendlies with much better results. Wins over Italy 2-0, Germany 3-1 and France 4-0 sweetened the subsequent 1-2 defeat to Croatia. So you can see that Lee Carsley's players keep their form from the qualifying matches and they approach today's match in Batumi as favorites. They have been waiting for the title in this age category for 39 years and who knows if this approach will not be effective. The staffing of the two teams is also different. Not a single player in the Czech national team can boast of a performance in the senior national team of his country. Only two play outside their homeland, including Stockport County goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros. The second player is Jan Zamburek, representing Danish Viborg.
Meanwhile, the England side boasts a host of recognizable names from the Premier League and beyond, including Arsenal's Emile Smith Rowe, who is the only U21 player to make a senior cap. Players such as 19-year-old defender Levi Colwill from Brighton, Toni Madueke from Chelsea, Oliver Skipp from Tottenham and Jacob Ramsey from Aston Villa also marked their position in the finished league season.
In general, I consider the English team to be stronger, which they proved in direct qualifying matches and I think that young players will have no problems winning this match convincingly with at least two goals.
