Euro 2020 latest news and updates

16:33 CEST: GOAL!!! Wales equalise!

Or... maybe Wales don't need to change anything. They've found the goal without making any changes. A well-worked corner routine ends with a Moore header into the bottom corner. It's 1-1 in Baku.

16:30 CEST: Twenty minutes for Wales to find an equaliser

They've not been bad, but it just hasn't been working for Wales. They're looking for an equaliser, but haven't actually made a single substitution yet. They might need to shake things up if they're to get on the scoreboard.

16:10 CEST: GOAL!!! Switzerland go 1-0 up!

We have the first goal of this Wales vs Switzerland game. It's Breel Embolo who breaks the deadlock, scoring at a corner after good delivery from Shaqiri.

16:05 CEST: No changes for Wales or Switzerland

We go again with the second half of Wales vs Switzerland in Baku. Neither coach has made a half time substitution, so we have the same 22 players on the pitch as we did at the start of the first half.

15:50 CEST: Half time in Wales vs Switzerland

Wales started better, but Switzerland really grew into the game towards the end of the first half. It remains goalless at half time in Baku, just like it was in Rome in the other Group A game between Italy and Turkey on Friday night.

15:35 CEST: Freekick for Bale

Wales win a freekick in a very dangerous position on the corner of the area. It's Gareth Bale who stands over it and curls a very tempting ball through the box. Nobody can quite reach it, but it could have gone in had it touched anyone.

15:25 CEST: Chances now for Switzerland

The Swiss response has been decent. A neat Schar flick at a corner provokes a good save from Ward, before they manage a few efforts that go just wide. It's still goalless, but both Wales and Switzerland have had a glorious chance each.

15:15 CEST: First shot on target for Wales

Wales have started better than Switzerland. After some dangerous ventures forward, they manage to manufacture the first shot of the game in the 15th minute, but Moore's header is spectacularly tipped over by Sommer.

15:00 CEST: Kick off in Baku!

Wales vs Switzerland is underway. It's Wales in red. It's Switzerland in white. It's the second match of Group A and of the tournament. We'll have updates from the game right here in this Euro 2020 live blog.

14:50 CEST: It's almost time for Wales vs Switzerland!

Just 10 minutes to go now. The players have finished their warm-ups and are back inside the stadium, waiting to come back out for this Group A match at the Olympic Stadium in Baku. How will it go? You tell us!

14:35 CEST: The Wales coach is confident

Rob Page, the caretaker Wales coach, has spoken to the BBC ahead of this game. "We wanted to get our best 11 on the pitch, and the team picks the formation, that's what we've done," he said. "If I'm the opposing manager and I'm looking at that teamsheet, it's exciting on paper!"

14:15 CEST: Fans in the stands in Baku

There will be fans at the Olympic Stadium in Baku, with some Welsh fans even having made the trip. It's a long way from home, with Baku 4,120km from Wales. We took a look at how far each team has to travel during the Euro 2020 group stage here.

13:50 CEST: The Wales vs Switzerland line-ups

We have the teams for the first fixture of this Saturday. For Wales, the XI is: Ward; Roberts, Mepham, Rodon, Davies; Allen, Morrell; Bale, Ramsey, James; Moore. Meanwhile, the Swiss team is: Sommer; Mbabu, Elvedi, Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez; Freuler, Xhaka, Shaqiri; Embolo, Seferovic.

13:35 CEST: Wales are in the stadium

The Welsh national team are inside the Olympic Stadium in Baku, ready for their match against Switzerland in just under an hour and a half. Some of the players have gone for a stroll on the pitch, ready to get their European Championship campaign started.

13:00 CEST: Two hours to go until Wales vs Switzerland

We're getting closer to the second game of Euro 2020 and the first of the day. We've got an evenly matched Wales vs Switzerland in the evenly matched Group A, where every point will be vital. With two hours to go, share your predictions with us.

12:40 CEST: The Baku bunting

It's a big day for Azerbaijan and Baku, with their Olympic Stadium hosting Wales vs Switzerland. The city had a Formula 1 race just last weekend and now welcome Euro 2020. They've turned the decorations around in record time, even putting up a type of football shirts bunting, captured here in this image from 433.

12:20: Finland's first ever major tournament game

Finland have qualified for the European Championship for the first time. Having also never been at a World Cup, that makes this evening's match against Denmark their first ever at a major tournament. UEFA have put together a video guide with details on what to expect from the debutants.

12:00 CEST: Gareth Bale is ready

Wales get their campaign up and running this Saturday and Gareth Bale is ready, keen to lead his side after a fantastic Euro 2016 when Wales went all the way to the semi-finals. "I feel like I'm match-fit, I'm ready. I'm sharp, I'm scoring goals and I'm confident in my levels going into this," the forward has said.

11:45 CEST: Day two of Euro 2020 is here!

Here we go then! It's the second day of Euro 2020 and the first with three fixtures. We've got Wales vs Switzerland (15:00 CEST), Denmark vs Finland (18:00 CEST) and Belgium vs Russia (21:00 CEST). After the opener in Rome, it's off to Baku next for that clash between the Welsh and the Swiss. Here on this Euro 2020 live blog, we'll have all the latest updates for you as we build up to that fixture.
