Hosts Germany thump Scotland in Euro 2024 opening match

It's a triumphant start for Germany and a thundering loss for Scotland. The two nations opened the Euro 2024 tournament in front of 66,000 spectators, which saw German stars like Florian Wits and Jamal Musiala dominate the field, scoring two goals and a penalty before half time. Invigorated by their strong start, the young attackers are confident they can lead the team into a new era first. To win that comfortably was was a good sign for for everyone and for us as well. I think we can take that confidence going into the next game. I think for me personally it was quite happy with the game. Of course there's things we can still do better. Scotland, who struggled to get a goal in all match, got on the score sheet in the 87th minute with German Antonio Rudiger's deflected own goal. The team suffered the biggest opening game margin of defeat in the tournament's history. Leaving Scottish fans devastated. Listen, very disappointing for us today because we obviously were coming with great hopes. I think the biggest thing is we're very proud of the team. Germany, who crashed out of its last three major tournaments, is now seeking a first major trophy after a barren decade. The team will play Hungary next in the Group A match on Wednesday, while Scotland will have to regroup for their next game against Switzerland.
