A Year of Sport: What we can expect in 2021

But you guys know me by now and you know that twenty minutes into 2021 I was thinking about all the live sports that will be on my television this year, which is quite a lot and if we behave ourselves, we could be in for an amazing year. Let me show you the main events expected to take place this year.

But these are merely the appetisers that come before the main meals that are the Euro 2020 and the Copa America. Both of these tournaments were pushed back a year due to Covid-19 and if all goes well…
