Second match of the 2024 European Championships sees Fabian Schar kicking off Newcastle United interest.
Friday night saw hosts Germany tear Scotland apart, Clarke’s team lucky to get away with a 5-1 defeat.
Saturday at 2pm sees game number two of the tournament and if he has shaken off a knock that kept him out of Switzerland’s final warm up friendly, Fabian Schar looks set to start.
In the lead up to the European Championshisps, the Newcastle United star had been playing very successfully on the right side of a back three, with Man City’s Akanji and Elvedi of Borussia Monchengladbach.
Today the Swiss play Hungary and it looks a very winnable game for Schar and his international teammates, the other matches played today are Spain v Croatia at 5pm and Italy v Albania 8pm on Saturday night.
Where Newcastle United are concerned, after Fabian Schar today, on Sunday night at 8pm we could see Kieran Trippier and/or Anthony Gordon play against Serbia, with the Serbs having our old mate Mitro up front.
Then on Monday, Martin Dubravka and Slovakia take on Belgium at 5pm.
The Copa America is the kind of equivalent of the European Championships and we have to wait until Monday 24 June for likely Newcastle United involvement, as Bruno Guimaraes and Brazil take on Costa Rica, whilst Miguel Almiron and Paraguay face Colombia.
Good luck to all the Toon players involved in the two tournaments.
