The European Championship in Germany is providing a platform for AP photographers to capture stunning images that showcase the excitement of this major soccer tournament. From France superstar Kylian Mbappé training with a protective face mask in the colors of the French flag after breaking his nose to Belgium’s Jeremy Doku displaying flawless technique while being challenged by an opponent, the photographers are capturing every moment in stunning detail. They didn’t miss capturing the Turkish fans in the stands, their energy and cheers adding to the ambiance of the tournament.
AP photographers are also present at other sports events around the world, such as Amy Yang’s joy as she was doused after winning the Women’s PGA Championship golf tournament in Sammamish, Washington.
