It's the largest sporting event on the planet, yes bigger than the olympics in terms of the number of poeple who watch it. You have to remember that football (soccer) is the number 1 sport in most countries on the planet.
It's very proffesional, top players get a LOT of money, several million pounds a year in some cases. The teams are chosen by the national coach/manager from all the players avaialble in their respective countries.

Is this a professional or amateur sports championship? If it is professional, how are the national teams chosen?
