The males’s soccer match will kick off on July 22, a day earlier than the opening ceremony of the 2020 Tokyo Games, with Egypt and Spain squaring off towards one another within the first recreation. In the 2020 Tokyo Games, 16 certified groups might be up towards one another to clinch the Olympic gold. Brazil are the defending champions and they’re going to begin the match towards Germany on Thursday.

Top European groups like England, Portugal, Belgium and Italy might be lacking from the celebrated occasion. In their absence, Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Spain, and France are counted amongst as favourites for the rostrum end.

The prestigious occasion might be performed throughout six completely different venues in Japan – Kashima, Rifu, Saitama, Sapporo, Tokyo, and Yokohama, with the summit conflict happening on the Olympic Stadium in Tokyo on August 7.
