Despite the fact that today, Thursday, July 22, the first of the Tokyo Olympics football matches will be held, which will precisely face Spain against Egypt , it will not be until Friday, July 23 when the inauguration ceremony of these games.
They will undoubtedly be a particular Olympics due to the absence of public which is believed to have strong economic repercussions for the entire system of chains, sponsors and venues that have already paid a lot of money for the event.
