It all starts here.

The first of 51 games, contested over the next 31 days, kicks off at 8 o'clock and it's the hosts, and tournament favourites, who will get us underway. 80,000 people will cram into the Stade de France to watch France take on Romania in the opening match of the European Championships. Didier Deschamps' men will be expected to get their tournament off to a thrilling start and here are the eleven men he's named to start as they mean to go on. https://twitter.com/UEFAEURO/status/741325643128934401 Romania, meanwhile, are going to be more focused on just making it out of Group A, which also contains Switzerland and Albania, and they can get that mission started if Anghel Iordănescu's men can cause an upset against the hot favourites in Paris.
