The television schedule and live streaming coverage for Thursday, July 22, at the Tokyo Olympic Games. It is another healthy list of competition on the schedule for the day, with Softball, Football, and Shooting action set to come.
Softball opening round games will continue at the Fukushima Azuma Stadium with three games, including the battle between host country Japan and Mexico. In another game, a pair of North American countries will face off when the USA and Canada tackle each other at the same venue.
Meanwhile, in men’s football, Japan will battle with South Africa at Tokyo Stadium, and I am expecting this game to produce goals. This Japanese team has been preparing for a while for the Olympics and after seeing them a few times in some friendly games, including the win over Jamaica, I am convinced that this is team to beat at the Olympics.
Also bowing into action at the Tokyo Stadium is France which will take on Mexico, a team that usually competes very well at the Games. Elsewhere, Brazil will meet Germany at International Stadium Yokohama, Egypt and Spain battle at Sapporo Dome, while Argentina will tackle Australia in its opening game at the same location.
