Please advise the fans who are familiar with European football: Has the European U2 1 Youth Football Championship been restructured?

Since the establishment of the European Youth Championship in the 1970s, there have been 15 cups. Starting from this year, U2 1 European Youth Championship will be held in odd years (not once a year, but still once every two years). The reason for this change is to avoid conflicts with the European Cup and the World Cup and affect some young talents to participate in more important adult competitions.

Because developed football countries such as Europe don't attach importance to Olympic-age players and don't have a special Olympic team, the casual European U2 1 Youth Championship has become a European qualifier for the Olympic Games. Israel, Belgium, Italy, Portugal, Czech Republic, England, Netherlands and Serbia have entered the final stage. The final will be held from June 10 to June 23, 2007, and the top four will advance to the Beijing Olympic Games.

The resolution passed by FIFA at the end of last year to disqualify three over-age players from participating in the 2008 Olympic Games was rejected by the IOC when it was reported to the IOC. Therefore, in the 2008 Olympic Games, each team will have three over-age players, and the future China Olympic team will also have three over-age international players.
