Euro Cup 2021: When will Euro 2021 take place? UEFA's European Championship changes explained
This summer's tournament is to be postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak across the continent and will now take place next year. Euro 2020 has been pushed back 12 months on Tuesday, March 17 after the coronavirus pandemic caused the suspension of football leagues around the world.

The likes of the Premier League, Serie
A, La Liga, and Bundesliga have all postponed fixtures until at
least April, meaning they face a race against the clock to fit in those games before Euro
2020 starting on June 12. UEFA is set
to shift the Champions League and Europa League to
finish in June and so insisting on the European Championships being played
in the summer of 2020 was impractical.
When could Euro
2021 take place?
Euro 2020 was due to start on Friday, June
12 with Turkey playing Italy at the Studio Olimpico but
the Norwegian FA confirmed the Euros is likely to begin now
on Friday, June 11, 2021.
This will allow the tournament to take
place in the same timeframe as it would have done in 2020, meaning the
logistics of the competition would not have to change and the Euro
2021 final would take place on July 11, 2021, at Wembley
Stadium. The 2020-21 Champions League final is scheduled to take place on
May 29 in St Petersburg, Russia, and so would not interfere with Euro
2021.
An alternative way for UEFA to
move Euro 2020 to the autumn of 2020, although this would have meant either
delaying the start of domestic seasons or pausing them to contest the European
Championships. The 2020-21 Premier League, for instance, is currently scheduled
to start on Saturday, August 8, while it would also disrupt the Champions’
League group stages, which is lucrative to UEFA.
When would England’s
Euro 2021 games take place?
England would likely begin their campaign
on Sunday, June 13, 2021, against Croatia at Wembley, with
the original fixture being scheduled for Sunday, June 14, 2020. The Three Lions
have the advantage of playing at Wembley for all three of their group games,
with their second fixture likely to come on Friday, June 18, 2021, against
the winner of play-off Path C.
Scotland, Israel, Serbia, and Norway
are battling it out to take the final place in Group D, although their play-off
fixtures scheduled for the end of March are also likely to be postponed until a
later date because of Covid-19. England’s final group game will see them face
the Czech Republic, with this currently set to take place on June
23 which means it would likely move forwards to June 22, 2021.
