‘No repeat’ for Euros violence

THE chaotic and violent scenes at last year’s Euro 2020 final at Wembley can never be repeated, says UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin.

An independent review of the disorder at the stadium last July identified more than 20 “nearmisses” that could have resulted in serious injury or death.

Wembley remains in favour with Ceferin and UEFA, and a UK and Ireland bid for Euro 2028

– for which Wembley would almost certainly host the final – is also the strong favourite to succeed.

Insisting the lessons of last summer had to be learned, Ceferin said: “People should feel safe in and around a football stadium. They should never, ever feel danger and they felt danger,”
