Belgium Faces Romania Under Pressure After Opening Loss at Euro 2020

Belgium enters their second Group E match of the European Championship against Romania on Saturday in Cologne with a sense of urgency. A shock defeat to Slovakia in their opening game has placed Belgium in a precarious position, needing a victory to avoid an early exit from the tournament. The pressure is on for the Belgians, who possess a wealth of talent and went undefeated during qualifying.

Standing in their way is a confident Romanian side fresh off a resounding 3-0 victory over Ukraine. This victory marked only the second time Romania has triumphed in a European Championship match, 24 years after their first win against England at Euro 2000.

For Belgium to secure a win, key players like Romelu Lukaku need to rediscover their scoring touch, and captain Kevin De Bruyne must inject pace and dynamism into the midfield. The match, set to kick off at 12:30 AM IST on Sunday, June 23rd at the Cologne Stadium, will be broadcast live on Sony Sports Ten channels in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, and Malayalam. Fans can also stream the game live on the app and website.

All eyes will be on Belgium as they strive to bounce back from their initial stumble and regain their composure in the tournament. Romania, however, will be eager to prove their victory over Ukraine was no fluke and aim to continue their impressive run in the competition.
