Germany vs Scotland LIVE SCORE – Euro 2024: Latest updates from Munich

It’s HERE! Welcome to SunSport’s live blog of the Euro 2024 opener between Germany and Scotland

The day we are waiting for is FINALLY here football fans as Germany host Scotland in the opening match of Euro 2024 – and the competition is set to throw up insane amounts of drama.

Germany already carry the weight of expectation that comes with being the host nation.

It is the first time they will host a major tournament since the 2006 World Cup, when they reached the semi-finals.

That will be the minimum goal for Julian Nagelsmann and his side, though Germany have struggled in recent years.

They were knocked out in the group stage of the previous two World Cups, while England beat Die Mannschaft 2-0 at Wembley at Euro 2020.

However, with the likes of Mats Hummels, Jamal Musiala and Kai Havertz enjoying impressive campaigns for their clubs this season, there is a chance they could go far in the tournament.

Scotland will have something to say about that with a lot of excitement surrounding Steve Clarke’s side.

A superb qualifying campaign saw them finish second in their group ahead of a Norway team boasting Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard.

They beat France and the Netherlands in March before drawing with Ukraine 0-0 on Monday, but appear to have got over the hiccup which saw them lose to Turkey and Austria in successive matches last year.

Meanwhile Scotland lost just once in qualifying – in Spain, winning five of their eight games.

However their form has dropped off since with defeats to Northern Ireland and the Netherlands, with the 2-0 win over Gibraltar a much needed confidence booster.

But before we get into the thick of things, lets look at who could win the game for each country.
