HOST VENUE: Wembley will stage the final of Euro 2020
ENGLAND has won the right to host the final and semi-finals of Euro 2020.
London's Wembley Stadium will stage the climax of the European Championship, the first time a major football tournament has been held in England since Euro 96.
UEFA's executive committee awarded the final to Wembley ahead of Munich's Allianz Arena at a meeting in Geneva.
UEFA also announced that Scotland and Ireland will host matches at Hampden Park and the Aviva Stadium respectively, but there was bitter disappointment for Wales who missed out in their bid for games at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium.
UEFA is staging the tournament in 13 cities across Europe to mark the 60th anniversary of the first European Championships.
