At the same time, both semi -final matches and finals will take place at the same stadium. The idea to refuse to hold the European Championship in any one country or two neighboring ones, as it was in Poland and Ukraine, belongs to President UEFA Michel Platini.
It is already known that the British nominate Wembley into three main matches of the tournament. For this right, the Arena of the England national team will compete with the stadiums of Rome, Berlin, Madrid, Istanbul and, possibly, someone else.
Platini himself expressed his support to Istanbul, but his desire may not be fulfilled if Türkiye receives the right to the 2020 Olympic Games.
If the “Wembley” nomination is completed by failure, then the stadium will apply for games of the group stage, as well as 1/8 and 1/4 finals.
For matches in groups and at the stage of the quarterfinals, UEFA will select 10 European stadiums with a capacity of at least 50 thousand spectators. In addition, football officials are going to attract more modest cities - for two rents with a capacity of 30 thousand spectators, an exception will be made.
The stadium at which the semifinal and final matches will take place should meet the highest requirements and have a capacity of at least 70 thousand spectators.
One country can be represented only by one arena, so if UEFA selects the Weembla final, then England will not see the group stage.
Thus, Euro 2020 will be held in 12 European cities that will receive 12 basic “packages” from three matches of the group stage and one playoffs, and the 13th city will get an “exclusive package” from the semifinals and finals, summarizes Fapl.ru.
