Euro 2020 is finally here — in 2021. The tournament kicks off on Friday with Italy taking on Turkey, and then we’ve got at least two games a day through June 23, followed by the knockout rounds, which conclude with the final on July 11. Throw in the potential for the Copa America, the Olympics, the Gold Cup, and there’s a lot of extra soccer this summer. I’ll be covering some of it in the weekly free newsletter and podcast, but there will also be a weekly roundup of the action every Friday for premium subscribers. Also for premium subscribers: there will be running commentary through all the games over in our Discord chat server, where we all lost our minds during the US–Mexico game last night.

So, given all the good stuff that you’ll get if you pay to subscribe, I’m offering premium subscriptions to the newsletter for 30-percent off this week: either $5 per month or $50 for the full year.

You’ll get the Friday newsletter and access to the Discord server, which has been a blast since we started it back in January. Some things people are saying:

• “Really appreciate the community you’ve created. It’s so refreshing from Twitter and Reddits of the world.”

• “This chat absolutely rocks. As a pretty new soccer fan, I've learned ton.”

• “This Discord has-been one of my favorite parts of this part season. I am trying to avoid the pub just cause I don't want to drink in the AMs like I used to, but I do miss the banter and chat. So this is pretty great.”

• “I'm thankful for this server too. I learn from people smarter than me, and enjoy the good vibes.”

If that sounds fun — good vibes! banter! learning! not being on Twitter! — then click the green button to subscribe:
