Czech Republic crowned Euro 2020 winners… in simulated reality

Simulation of the tournament played out on a supercomputer predicts unlikely winners of the football tournament.

Czech Republic have been crowned European football champions after beating Denmark 3-2 in the final of the delayed Euro 2020, a simulation of the tournament played out on a supercomputer, that analysed teams and their results over the last 20 years, has predicted. The European Championships, which will kick off in Rome on Friday, were scheduled to be held last year but were postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic. Czech Republic and Denmark have both won the tournament once in the past but few would back them to repeat that at this year’s event.
