Euro 2016: 10 reasons to look forward to this week's matches

A brilliant set of matches on Friday

Ibrahimovic takes centre stage on Friday as his Sweden team takes on the Italians.

Friday, the 17th of June has Italy vs Sweden, Czech Republic vs Croatia and Spain vs Turkey one after the other, an evening that you can spend essentially parked in front of your television. Italy will take on Sweden, in a match that will be critical to both of their progression from the group. Zlatan Ibrahimovic will know plenty of the Italian players really well, from the years he’s spent playing in Serie A.

His bullying of Giorgio Chiellini, the powerful and combative Juve defender was always amusing to watch. You’re welcome to check out their YouTube clips in anticipation. Croatia taking on the Czechs should be a brilliant matchup as well with plenty of talent on display, and Turkey will provide a stern test for a talented Spain team.
