tomsches 17,550 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/51909518 Euro 2020 has been postponed by one year until 2021 because of the coronavirus pandemic, says Uefa. European football's governing body made the decision during an emergency video conference involving major stakeholders on Tuesday. The tournament, due to take place from 12 June-12 July this summer, will now run from 11 June to 11 July next year. The postponement provides a chance for European leagues that have been suspended to now be completed. Uefa said it wanted to avoid "placing any unnecessary pressure on national public services" of its 12 host countries, as well as helping allow domestic competitions to be finished.

tomsches 17,550 Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 Could have just played the games without an audience, but better to stay save I guess. If the europe-wide lockdown stays intact until this summer, it would have been a nice way to entertain ourselves though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the europe-wide lockdown stays intact until this summer, it would have been a nice way to entertain ourselves though Well the thing is this EURO would’ve been a special one. It would’ve been in whole Europe and I think it is realistic that it wouldn’t have been possible.
