UEFA Euro 2020

While some countries had already expressed an interest in bidding to host the tournament,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] then-UEFA President Michel Platini suggested at a press conference on 30 June 2012, a day before the UEFA Euro 2012 Final, that instead of having one host country (or joint hosting by multiple countries), the tournament could be spread over "12 or 13 cities" across the continent.[14] At the time, UEFA already used a similar system for the UEFA European Under-17 Championship's Elite Round, where each of the seven groups is hosted by a different country.

Bidding venues

The final list of bids was published by UEFA on 26 April 2014, with a decision on the hosts being made by the UEFA Executive Committee on 19 September 2014. There were two bids for the Finals Package (of which one was successful, marked with blue for semi-finals and final) and 19 bids for the Standard Package (of which 12 were initially successful, marked with green for quarter-finals and group stage, and yellow for round of 16 and group stage); Brussels, marked with red, were initially selected but removed from the list of venues by UEFA on 7 December 2017 and the planned games there were moved to Wembley.[21][22][23]

In 2020, the pandemic in Europe of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) raised concerns regarding its potential impact on players, staff and visitors to the twelve host cities of the tournament.[24] At the UEFA Congress in early March, UEFA president Aleksander Čeferin said the organisation was confident that the situation could be dealt with, while general secretary Theodore Theodoridis stated that UEFA was maintaining contact with the World Health Organization and national governments regarding the coronavirus.[25] The impact on football grew later that month, as numerous domestic and UEFA competition matches began taking place behind closed doors. By 13 March 2020, upcoming UEFA competition fixtures were postponed, while major European leagues were suspended, including the Bundesliga, La Liga, Ligue 1, Premier League and Serie A.[26]

UEFA held a videoconference on 17 March 2020 with representatives of its 55 member associations, along with a FIFPro representative and the boards of the European Club Association and European Leagues, to discuss the response to the outbreak for domestic and European competitions, including Euro 2020.[27] At the meeting, UEFA announced that the tournament would be postponed to the following year, proposing that it take place from 11 June to 11 July 2021.[28] The postponement allowed for pressure to be reduced on the public services in affected countries, while also providing space in the calendar for domestic European leagues that had been suspended to complete their seasons.[2] On the following day, the Bureau of the FIFA Council approved the date change in the FIFA International Match Calendar. As a result, the expanded FIFA Club World Cup, which was due to take place in June and July 2021, will be rescheduled.[29] On 23 April 2020, UEFA confirmed that the tournament would still be known as UEFA Euro 2020.[3]

There is no automatic qualifying berth, and all 55 UEFA national teams, including the 12 national teams whose countries are scheduled to stage matches, must compete in the qualifiers for the 24 places at the finals tournament.[30][31] As the host cities were appointed by UEFA in September 2014, before the qualifiers, it is possible for the national teams from the host cities to fail to qualify for the finals tournament.

The qualifying draw was held on 2 December 2018 at the Convention Centre Dublin in Dublin, Republic of Ireland.[32]

The main qualifying process started in March 2019, instead of immediately in September 2018 following the 2018 FIFA World Cup, and ended in November 2019. The format remains largely the same, although only 20 of the 24 spots for the finals tournament are to be decided from the main qualifying process, leaving four spots still to be decided. Following the admission of Kosovo to UEFA in May 2016, it was announced that the 55 members at the time would be drawn into ten groups after the completion of the UEFA Nations League (five groups of five teams and five groups of six teams, with the four participants of the UEFA Nations League Finals guaranteed to be drawn into groups of five teams), with the top two teams in each group qualifying. The qualifiers were played on double matchdays in March, June, September, October and November 2019.[33]

With the creation of the UEFA Nations League starting in 2018,[34][33][35][36] the 2018–19 UEFA Nations League was linked with Euro qualifying, providing teams another chance to qualify for the tournament. Four teams from each division that have not already qualified for the European Championship are to compete in the play-offs for each division. The winners of the play-offs for each division, to be decided by two one-off semi-finals (the best-ranked team vs. the fourth-best-ranked team, and the second-best-ranked team vs. the third-best-ranked team, played at home of higher ranked teams) and one one-off final (with the venue drawn in advance between the two semi-finals winners), are scheduled to join the 20 teams that have already qualified for the tournament.[36]

Qualified teams

Of the currently 20 teams that have qualified for the tournament, 17 are returning from the 2016 edition. Among them are Belgium and Italy, who both recorded flawless qualifying campaigns (10 wins in 10 matches),[37][38] defending European champions Portugal and world champions France, with Germany also qualifying for a record 13th straight European Championship.[39] Finland will make their European Championship debut, having never previously qualified for a major tournament.[40] The Netherlands and Denmark returned after missing out in 2016, with the Dutch featuring in a major tournament for the first time since 2014.[41][42] For the first time, Austria and Wales reached successive European Championship tournaments.[43][44] Greece, winners in 2004, were the only former champions that failed to qualify, missing their second straight European Championship and third consecutive major tournament.[45]

Of the twelve host countries, seven managed to qualify directly for the tournament. Four will enter the play-offs, with a maximum of three being able to qualify, while Azerbaijan were entirely eliminated following the qualifying group stage.[46]

The venues were selected and announced by UEFA on 19 September 2014.[47] However, the UEFA Executive Committee removed Brussels as a host city on 7 December 2017 due to delays with the building of the Eurostadium. The four matches (three group stage, one round of 16) initially scheduled to be held in Brussels were reallocated to London. Therefore, Wembley Stadium will host a total of seven matches, as London was already chosen to host the semi-finals and final of the tournament.[48] On 7 December 2017, it was also announced that the opening match would take place at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, chosen ahead of Amsterdam, Glasgow and Saint Petersburg. UEFA decided that, should they qualify, the opening match would feature Italy.[48][49]

Of the 12 selected cities and countries, 8 cities and 7 countries have never hosted a European Championship finals match before. Bilbao was not a venue when Spain hosted the 1964 European Nations' Cup, and none of Azerbaijan, Denmark, Hungary, Romania, Republic of Ireland, Russia, or Scotland has hosted the tournament previously. Of the 12 selected stadia, only 2 have hosted a European Championship match before: the Stadio Olimpico (1968 and 1980) and the Johan Cruyff Arena (2000). The original Wembley stadium hosted games and the final in UEFA Euro 1996, but although it stands on the same site, this is classified as a different stadium to the current Wembley Stadium.

Each city will host three group stage matches and one match in the round of 16 or quarter-finals. The match allocation for the 12 stadiums is as follows:

• Group stage, round of 16, semi-finals, and final: London (England)
• Group stage and quarter-finals: Munich (Germany), Baku (Azerbaijan), Saint Petersburg (Russia), Rome (Italy)
• Group stage and round of 16: Copenhagen (Denmark), Bucharest (Romania), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Dublin (Republic of Ireland), Bilbao (Spain), Budapest (Hungary), Glasgow (Scotland)

The host cities were divided into six pairings, established on the basis of sporting strength (assuming all host teams qualify), geographical considerations, and security/political constraints. The pairings were allocated to groups by means of a random draw on 7 December 2017. Each qualified host country will play a minimum of two matches at home. The group venue pairings is as follows:[48]

• Group A: Rome (Italy) and Baku (Azerbaijan)
• Group B: Saint Petersburg (Russia) and Copenhagen (Denmark)
• Group C: Amsterdam (Netherlands) and Bucharest (Romania)
• Group D: London (England) and Glasgow (Scotland)
• Group E: Bilbao (Spain) and Dublin (Republic of Ireland)
• Group F: Munich (Germany) and Budapest (Hungary)

The following criteria apply to define the home matches of host teams within the same group:[50]

• If both host teams qualify directly or both advance to the play-offs, a draw will determine which team will play all three group stage matches at home (i.e. which will host the head-to-head match), and which will play only two matches at home.
• If one host team qualifies directly, and the other advances to the play-offs or is eliminated entirely, the directly qualified host team will play all three group stage matches at home, and the other host, if qualified, will play only two.
• If one host team advances to the play-offs, and the other is eliminated entirely, the host team in the play-offs, if qualified, will play all three group stage matches at home.
• No action is necessary should both host teams fail to qualify.

If a host team in the play-offs fails to qualify, the path winner will take the spot of the host in the match schedule and therefore will play the two or three matches based on the above criteria in the host city of the respective host that failed to qualify. The draw took place on 22 November 2019, 12:00 CET, at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland (along with the draw for the play-offs).[51] In the draw, which was only necessary for Group B (Denmark and Russia), two balls were prepared, with the first drawn hosting the three matches.[52]

Group	Host 1		Host 2		Draw?	Host with three home matches

D	England	Qualified	Scotland	Play-offs	No	England
E	Republic of Ireland	Play-offs	Spain	Qualified	No	Spain
F	Germany	Qualified	Hungary	Play-offs	No	Germany

Team base camps

Each team chooses a "team base camp" for its stay between the matches. The teams will train and reside in these locations throughout the tournament, travelling to games staged away from their bases. Unlike previous tournaments, each team can set up their base camp anywhere due to the pan-European format, without any obligation of staying in any of the host countries.[53]

The base camps selected by the twenty directly qualified teams were announced by UEFA on 27 January 2020.[54]

Team	Base camp
Austria	Seefeld in Tirol, Austria
Belgium	Tubize, Belgium
Croatia	St Andrews, Scotland
Czech Republic	Currie, Edinburgh, Scotland
Denmark	Helsingør, Denmark
England	Burton upon Trent, England
Finland	Repino, Saint Petersburg, Russia
France	Clairefontaine-en-Yvelines, France
Germany	Herzogenaurach, Germany
Italy	Coverciano, Florence, Italy
Netherlands	Zeist, Netherlands
Poland	Portmarnock, Republic of Ireland
Portugal	Budapest, Hungary
Russia	Khimki, Russia
Spain	Las Rozas de Madrid, Spain
Sweden	Maynooth, Republic of Ireland
Switzerland	Rome, Italy
Turkey	Baku, Azerbaijan
Ukraine	Bucharest, Romania
Wales	Baku, Azerbaijan

The draw for the final tournament was held on 30 November 2019, 18:00 CET (19:00 local time, EET) at Romexpo in Bucharest, Romania.[55][56][57][46] The 24 teams were drawn into six groups of four. The identity of the four play-off teams were not known at the time of the draw and were identified as play-off winners A to D.[58] Should there have been groups that could not be finalised at the time of the final tournament draw, another draw would have been held after the play-offs on 1 April 2020,[1] but UEFA confirmed the additional draw was not necessary after the identity of the 20 directly qualified teams and the 16 play-offs teams was known.[52]

The teams were seeded in accordance with the European Qualifiers overall ranking based on their results in UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying. The following was the standard composition of the draw pots:[59]

• Pot 1: Group winners ranked 1–6
• Pot 2: Group winners ranked 7–10, group runners-up ranked 1–2 (11–12 overall)
• Pot 3: Group runners-up ranked 3–8 (13–18 overall)
• Pot 4: Group runners-up ranked 9–10 (19–20 overall), play-off winners A–D (identity unknown at the time of the draw)

As two host teams from the same group could not be in the same seeding pot, the UEFA Emergency Panel would have either switched one host team with the lowest-ranked team of the higher pot, or switched one host team with the highest-ranked team of the lower pot (based on the principle that the move would have minimal impact on the original seeding). However, no seeding adjustments were necessary.

The draw started with Pot 1 and completed with Pot 4, from where a team was drawn and assigned to the first available group. The position in the group (for the determination of the match schedule) was then drawn. In the draw, the following conditions applied (including for teams that could still qualify via the play-offs):[60]

• Automatic group assignments: Host teams were automatically assigned to their group based on the host city pairings.
• Prohibited clashes: For political reasons, UEFA set pairs of teams that were considered prohibited clashes. In addition to being unable to be drawn into the same group, non-host teams were prevented from being drawn into a group hosted by a country they clash with, even should the host not qualify. Only one prohibited clash, Russia / Ukraine, applied during the group stage draw. Other prohibited clashes among qualified and play-off teams were Kosovo / Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo / Serbia, but the teams in these pairs were all in the play-offs and in Pot 4 for the draw, and would not be in the same group; Kosovo / Russia was also prohibited,[61] but they also would not be in the same group due to play-off path pairings necessary for host allocation. However, these prohibited clashes are not excluded for the knockout phase.

Seeding

The following was the composition of the pots:[62]

Pot 1 Team Host Rank  Belgium[lower-alpha 1] 1  Italy Group A 2  England Group D 3  Germany Group F 4  Spain Group E 5  Ukraine[lower-alpha 1] 6

Pot 2 Team Host Rank  France 7  Poland 8   Switzerland 9  Croatia 10  Netherlands Group C 11  Russia Group B 12

Pot 3 Team Host Rank  Portugal 13  Turkey 14  Denmark Group B 15  Austria 16  Sweden 17  Czech Republic 18

Pot 4[lower-alpha 2] Team Host Rank  Wales 19  Finland 20 Play-off winner A Group C & F[lower-alpha 3] N/A Play-off winner B Group E[lower-alpha 4] Play-off winner C Group D[lower-alpha 5] Play-off winner D[lower-alpha 6]

1. Ukraine could not be drawn into the same group as Russia (Group B host). Since they also could not be drawn into any of the other four groups with Pot 1 hosts, Ukraine were assigned to Group C. Consequently, Belgium were assigned to Group B.
2. Identity of the four play-off winners was unknown at the time of the draw.
3. Romania (Group C host) and Hungary (Group F host) are competing in play-off Path A, and thus the winner of Path A was assigned to two groups (Group C and Group F), with the final assignment depending on the identity of the Path A winner.
4. Republic of Ireland (Group E host) are competing in play-off Path B, and thus the winner of Path B was assigned to Group E.
5. Scotland (Group D host) are competing in play-off Path C, and thus the winner of Path C was assigned to Group D.
6. Play-off Path D is paired with Path A (which contains two hosts), and thus the winner of Path D was assigned to two groups (Group C and Group F), with the final assignment depending on the identity of the Path A winner.

Draw results and group fixtures

The draw resulted in the following groups (teams in italics are play-off winners whose identity was not known at the time of the draw):

1. Tournament host that will play all three group stage matches at home.
2. Tournament host that will play two group stage matches at home.
3. Potential tournament host that, if qualified, will play two group stage matches at home.
4. The allocation of the play-off winners into Group C and F depends on the results of Play-off Path A.

The fixtures for the group stage were decided based on the draw results, as follows:

Note: Positions for scheduling did not use the seeding pots, and instead used the draw positions, e.g. Team 1 was not necessarily the team from Pot 1 in the draw.

Group stage schedule

Matchday	Dates	Matches
Matchday 1	June 2021	1 v 2, 3 v 4
Matchday 2	June 2021	1 v 3, 2 v 4
Matchday 3	June 2021	4 v 1, 2 v 3

Each national team has to submit a squad of 23 players, three of whom must be goalkeepers, at least ten days before the opening match of the tournament. If a player becomes injured or ill severely enough to prevent his participation in the tournament before his team's first match, he can be replaced by another player.[1]

On 12 February 2020, UEFA and CONMEBOL signed a memorandum of understanding to enhance collaboration, including the possibility of a team of South American match officials appointed for the group stage of the tournament.[63]

UEFA announced the original tournament schedule on 24 May 2018, which only included kick-off times for the opening match and quarter-finals onward.[64][65] The kick-off times of the remaining group stage and round of 16 matches were announced on 30 November 2019 following the final draw.[66][67]

Group winners, runners-up, and the best four third-placed teams advance to the round of 16.

Times are CEST (UTC+2), as listed by UEFA. If the venue is located in a different time zone, the local time is also given.

In the knockout phase, if a match is level at the end of normal playing time, extra time is played (two periods of 15 minutes each), with each team being allowed to make a fourth substitution.[68] If still tied after extra time, the match is decided by a penalty shoot-out.[1]

As with every tournament since UEFA Euro 1984, there is no third place play-off. The specific match-ups involving the third-placed teams depend on which four third-placed teams will qualify for the round of 16:[1]

Times are CEST (UTC+2), as listed by UEFA. If the venue is located in a different time zone, the local time is also given.

The prize money was finalised in February 2018. Each team receives a participation fee of €9.25 million, with the winner able to earn a maximum of €34 million.[69]

The International Broadcast Centre (IBC) will be located at the Expo Haarlemmermeer in Vijfhuizen, Netherlands.[98]
