Host Nation Thrash Ten Man Scotland 5 1 In Opening Match

Germany Kick Off Euro 2024 with Thumping Win over Scotland

Host Nation Thrash Ten-Man Scotland 5-1 in Opening Match

Germany Take Commanding Lead in Tournament

Germany kicked off Euro 2024 in spectacular fashion on Friday, hammering 10-man Scotland 5-1 in Munich to record the biggest victory in the tournament's opening match since 2004. The host nation took a commanding win, which could have been by an even greater margin thanks to a masterful showing.

Scotland's nightmare start to the tournament began when defender John Souttar was sent off after just 23 minutes for a reckless tackle. Germany took advantage of their numerical superiority, with goals from Timo Werner, Leroy Sane, Kai Havertz, and an own goal from Grant Hanley.

Scotland managed to pull one back through Che Adams, but it was a mere consolation as Germany continued to dominate. The victory gives Germany a significant advantage in the race to qualify from Group F, which also includes France, Portugal, and Hungary.

For Scotland, the defeat is a major setback and leaves them facing an uphill battle to reach the knockout stages. They will need to regroup quickly for their next match against the Czech Republic on Tuesday.
