Europe's future football stars vie for U20 World Cup glory

euronews.com

Europe's best young footballers are facing off against the rest of the world as the FIFA U20 World Cup gets underway in Argentina this weekend.

Four cities in Argentina are hosting 24 teams from 20 May to 11 June, as the South American nation is still celebrating Lionel Messi and his national team’s 2022 World Cup triumph in Qatar.

Slovakia opened the scoreline for Europe, with a 4-0 win against Fiji on Saturday. Italy and Israel are in action late Sunday evening against Brazil and Colombia; while France and England begin their campaigns on Monday against South Korea and Tunisia respectively.

Argentina agreed to host the tournament at the last minute, much to FIFA's relief, after protests in Muslim-majority Indonesia against hosting the Israel team forced the late switch of nations.
