Italy were successful in keeping the likes of Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku at bay and nailed their chances as it came to them. The contributions of Leonardo Bonucci and Georgio Chiellini at the back were impressive and their ability to find a man with the long balls was absolutely mouthwatering to see on that particular day at Lyon. It would be a crime to ignore the cool touch and composed finish by Bologna’s Emanuele Giaccherini (on loan from Sunderland) as he gave Italy the crucial lead which set the tempo of the game....

Cavaleri said EMA’s decision still needs additional approval by the European Commission and national regulators. “I understand why some countries want to vaccinate their children and adolescents, but right now I urge them to reconsider and to instead donate vaccines to COVAX,” Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, head of the World Health Organization (WHO), said earlier this month about richer countries moving to vaccinate younger individuals....

This match is important for Sweden for a number of reasons. Firstly Euro 2016 for them has been characterised by luck not being on their side. A 1-1 draw with the Republic of Ireland followed by a 1-0 loss to Italy leaves the Swedes with just 1 point from their opening 2 fixtures. Anything other than a win against Belgium will see them eliminated. Secondly, Sweden’s best football player for over a decade, the enigma that is Zlatan Ibrahimovic has announced he shall retire from international football after Euro 2016....
