The German men's Olympic soccer team left the pitch five minutes before the end of their warm-up game against Honduras in Wakayama, Japan on Saturday after defender Jordan Torunarigha was allegedly racially abused.

No hay dibujos animados de fútbol más famosos e influyentes que los Supercampeones. O Capitán Tsubasa por su nombre original. El show inspirado en el manga de Yōichi Takahashi fue y sigue siendo un fenómeno global tan grande que la selección de Alemania decidió homenajearlo a la hora de presentar su escuadra para los Juegos Olímpicos Tokio 2020.
La Mannschaft reveló su lista de 19 jugadores con un video que emula las aventuras de Oliver Atom, Benji Price y Steve Hyuga.
UEFA likes to claim it supports human rights — until there’s any sort of pushback. Europe’s football governing body once again showed how fucking feckless it is by banning rainbow ads at Euro 2020 quarterfinals in Saint Petersburg and Baku.
Germany midfielder Toni Kroos has announced his retirement from international football after his team's exit from the European Championship, the 31-year-old said on Instagram.
Kroos' announcement came three days after Germany were beaten 2-0 by England in the last 16 of Euro 2020 at Wembley.
Francia, Alemania, Portugal y Hungría eran parte del Grupo F de la Eurocopa. Grupo tan difícil como atractivo. Francia, vigente campeón mundial; Portugal, actual rey de Europa; Alemania, tetracampeones mundiales; y Hungría a completar el grupo.
Didier Deschamps, Joachim Löw y Fernando Santos contaban con los mejores equipos desde el vamos. Ponerlos entre los favoritos del torneo y llamar a la serie el Grupo de la Muerte caía de cajón.
While the Euros roll on through the knockout rounds, we have plenty of wild fan interactions already. From fans showing up to support their team in the wrong country to pitch invaders wielding rainbow flags, anything goes as fans are enjoying their time back. Football fans were kept from stadiums and fully supporting their teams for over a year by the Covid-19 pandemic, diminished to yelling at screens instead of faces, so we wouldn't expect anything less extravagant than what has been happening. Let's take a look at the best Euro 2020 fans so far.
Inglaterra venció 2-0 a Alemania en Wembley. ¡Sí, en suelo inglés!, un hito que no se lograba desde 1975.
Con la histórica victoria, Inglaterra avanzó además a los cuartos de final de la Euro 2020, donde se verá las caras, en Roma, contra el ganador del Suecia vs Ucrania.
England picked up an iconic 2-0 win against Germany in front of 40,000 fans at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday to advance to the quarterfinals.
The win was England’s first competitive victory in a knockout game against Germany since the 1966 World Cup Final.
This was also the result that every neutral fan dreaded. England deserves top marks for its defensive efforts in the tournament so far. The English defense has played four games and gone perfect with four clean sheets. But holy cow is it hard to stay awake watching the Three Lions play.
If it seems like there have been a lot of own goals during Euro 2020, it's because they have been occurring at a rate unlike anything seen at an international tournament before.
The first European Championship was contested in 1960, and in the 15 tournaments up to now, there have been nine own goals. Through the first 41 matches at this summer's European Championship there have been nine own goals.
Euro 1960-2016: 9 own goals
Euro 2020: 9 own goals
England boasts a roster flooded with talent, but only two goals in the group stage has critics doubting that “it’s coming home.” Germany on the other hand is looking to rebound after dancing dangerously close to the Hungarian fire in the final match of the group stage.
