Europe Football HOT!

The UEFA European Football Championship,[1] less formally the European Championship and informally the Euro, is the primary association football tournament organised by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). The competition is contested by UEFA members' senior men's national teams, determining the continental champion of Europe. It is the second-most watched football tournament in the world after the FIFA World Cup. The Euro 2012 final was watched by a global audience of around 300 million.[2] The competition has been held every four years since 1960, except for 2020, when it was postponed until 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, but kept the name Euro 2020. Scheduled to be in the even-numbered year between FIFA World Cup tournaments, it was originally called the European Nations' Cup before changing to its current name in 1968. Since 1996, the individual events have been branded as "UEFA Euro [year]".

In 2007, there was much discussion about an expansion of the tournament to 24 teams, started by Scotland and the Republic of Ireland, due to the increased number of football associations in Europe after the break-ups of Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, and the inclusion of Israel and Kazakhstan. The new president of UEFA, Michel Platini, was reported to be in favour of expansion which proved an accurate assumption. Whilst on 17 April 2007, UEFA's executive committee formally decided against expansion in 2012, Platini indicated in June 2008 that UEFA will increase participation from 16 to 24 teams in future tournaments, starting from 2016.[78] On 25 September, it was announced by Franz Beckenbauer that an agreement had been reached, and the expansion to 24 teams would be officially announced the next day.[79]

Calaycay did return to Salem and worked as a Willamette football graduate assistant coach for two years under coach Mark Speckman. Chris was also playing spring football in Vienna, Austria where he eventually met and married his wife, Michaela. After three seasons in Vienna as a player and coach, he then moved on to Cal-Berkeley, attending graduate school and coaching for the Division I Golden Bears program for two seasons.

It was at Cal that Chris decided that D-I college football wasn't (necessarily) where he wanted to work. He mentions the intensity of college football, the frequent lack of civility, and the uncertainty of employment as reasons to look elsewhere. Instead, Calaycay received an offer from the longtime president of the Vienna Vikings organization to return to coach with the team in Europe. He didn't hesitate in saying yes. That was in 2004. He has made Austria home ever since.

Calaycay is quietly confident about his team's chances this season. It is that same confidence which won him European Football Hall of Fame honors from the Touchdown Europe organization in 2014 as an outstanding Vienna coach during their time in Austrian-only football. The Vikings regularly won the Austrian championship (13 of 20 in Vikings history), and have also won five Euro Bowls during Chris's seasons as an assistant and head coach in Vienna. Calaycay's winning percentage for his career is at 79 percent. He was inducted into the Touchdown Europe Hall of Fame in 2014.

Chris speaks fondly of two of his longtime Austrian players who have landed their dream of playing in the NFL. Bernhard Raimann, who played collegiately at Central Michigan, was selected in the third round of the 2022 draft, and started at left tackle last season for the Colts. And Bernhard Seikovits, a 6-6 tight end who has bulked up, entered the NFL's International Pathway program, and is now on the practice squad for the Arizona Cardinals. The pride is evident in Calaycay's eyes as he speaks about them as evidence of how far European football has come since the 1990s. He regularly serves as an analyst for NFL games aired in Austria.

Even in the midst of an intense European football season, Chris Calaycay appears to be at peace with himself and his life in general. He is comfortable with the pinnacle of his success in the very big world of American football.

Within Russia, the consequences have been profound. There has been an exodus of foreigners from the Russian league: the German coaches of Lokomotiv Moscow and Krasnodar, for example, quit almost immediately. The country is cut off, expelled from the World Cup and its clubs suspended from UEFA competitions. Perhaps Gazprom, the state energy company that used to sponsor the Champions League, will instead invest its resources at home. Yet more likely, Russian football will wither in isolation.

Hungary has seen a mini-revival recently, thanks to a series of tax breaks Viktor Orbn, a huge football fan, has provided for clubs. With investment, some achievement is possible, at the national level at least. Without it, the result is Bulgaria or Romania, whose national teams lit up the 1994 World Cup but are currently footballing deserts.

As football correspondent, Jonathan Wilson writes for various English newspapers such as the Financial Times and the Guardian. He is also a book author and published his first book in 2006: Behind the Curtain. Football in Eastern Europe.

The consensus from speaking to football finance experts is that one season out of Europe will not be disastrous for Spurs. If it starts to happen with any regularity, then they really do need to be concerned; and a bigger worry right now is that next season will make it three out of four out of the Champions League.

Excluding the English Premier League, ESPN takes a look at seven head coaches who are 45 or younger in European football who have already been backed to lead a top club, and those who might be first in line for the next opportunity.

An advocate of high-pressing football that depends on energy, quick regaining of possession and ruthlessly efficient transitions, the Dutchman -- who is loved by his players for his engaging style and clear communication -- has taken inspiration from established masters of the art such as Pep Guardiola and Jrgen Klopp.

Tor-Kristian Karlsen is a Norwegian football scout and executive and is the former chief executive and sporting director at AS Monaco. He will write regularly for ESPN on the business of soccer and the process of scouting.

In an age where football managers are expected to take centre stage in the media, deliver catchy one-liners and embellish their reputations as if their lives depended on it, Arrasate represents something of an antidote. The understated Basque rarely sets news conferences alight or engages in "mind games" with his colleagues, preferring to go about his business quietly, focusing on his work at the training ground rather than creating headlines.

Home advantage is well documented in a wide range of team sports including association football (soccer). Home team crowd support has been shown to be a likely causal factor and its influence on referee decision-making appears to play a significant role. Match data from the 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 seasons of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) Champions League and Europa League were used to investigate referee bias in terms of the association between match location (home vs. away) and disciplinary sanctions used by football referees. The adjusted mean number of yellow cards received by home and away teams and the ratios of these means were estimated from Poisson regression models. After controlling for within-match measures of attacking dominance referees in the Champions League and Europa League issued 25% (p

"In what promises to be a great spectacle of football for our global fans, we are thrilled to announce the five games to be played internationally in 2023, a record number of regular season games in Europe in a season," said Peter O'Reilly, NFL Executive Vice President, Club Business, Major Events & International. "We are excited to bring three games to London once again, a city with a huge love for the sport and a passionate fan base across the U.K. We are also pleased to confirm that the two games in Germany will be played in Frankfurt, a city steeped in NFL heritage. We look forward to staging both games at Eintracht Frankfurt's Stadium, building on the incredible atmosphere experienced at last season's game in Munich."

For the league, the charges against City illustrate how seriously it takes the idea that clubs should not be allowed to just buy success. But for those who see English football as a haven from financial regulations, the belated action against City together with the lavish January transfer spending appeared to confirm their suspicions. 2351a5e196
