EuroCup 2024 Squads

[Tooting Carmen]

The squad for Euro 2024 was announced today.

Guarda-redes: Diogo Costa, Rui Patrício, José Sá

Defesas: Pepe, Gonçalo Inácio, Rúben Dias, António Silva, Danilo, Diogo Dalot, João Cancelo, Nélson Semedo, e Nuno Mendes

Médios: Rúben Neves, João Palhinha, Vitinha, Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, João Neves e Otávio

Avançados: Cristiano Ronaldo, Gonçalo Ramos, Rafael Leão, Diogo Jota, João Félix, Pedro Neto e Francisco Conceição

Six of the twenty-six are not ethnic Portuguese. The ratio remains the same: 70% of the national team is made up of natives.

Spoiler!

Do you count Cristiano Ronaldo as ethnic Portuguese, despite being part-Cape Verdean? And some people here, including Damiao de Gois, claim that Gonçalo Ramos doesn't look fully native.

Anyone here going to matches except me?

I have tickets for Croatia-Italy game in Leipzig since January, but I recently got prime seats via UEFA website for Spain-Croatia game in Berlin as well!!! My best friend is going with me and he also has tickets for Croatia-Albania game in Hamburg; I do not

Can't wait!

Thank you, but the question was about this:

Can you tell me how many players of your Euro2024 squad are natives of your nation?

There were 2 Brazilians in the past, one of them came to Croatia as teenager and married a local woman.

that's great !

I went to 3 matches at Euro '96 (almost 30 years ago now !)

Spain v Bulgaria , Spain v France - both at Elland Rd, Leeds
Germany v Italy at Old Trafford

The tickets in those days were just £30 !

That was a classic tournament and amazing stadiums! Euro 96 in England was first big competition Croatia participated in.

I paid two tickets for Spain 800 EUR all cheaper ones were sold out

But not sorry, it's once in lifetime opportunity I will tell to my grandkids one day I hope

100 000 Croatian fans are coming for that match alone

Soccer is an increasingly negro sport for good and for ill. I'm indifferent about it, I rarely watch soccer in recent years.

Kroos just retired which means Champions League final and EURO 2024 will be his last in football.

Luka is apparently staying in Real, and he won't give no.10 to Mbappe.
