HAMPDEN PARK will host Group D matches at Euro 2020 alongside Wembley Stadium in London.
UEFA’s Executive Committee met on Thursday to make a number of decisions relating to the venues for the cross-continent tournament.
Host cities were paired together in a random draw from six different lists of city pairings ‘established on the basis of sporting strength and geographical considerations’.
Glasgow was drawn in Group D alongside London, with Wembley taking Brussels’ three group matches and one round of 16 match after the Eurostadium project failed to meet conditions imposed by the Executive Committee.
Hampden Park will host three Group D matches and one last 16 clash, while Wembley had already been chosen as the venue for the semi-finals and final.
Scotland, along with every other host nation, will play a minimum of two games at home if they qualify for the tournament.
Group A: Rome and Baku
Group B: Amsterdam and Bucharest
Group C: Saint Petersburg and Copenhagen
Group D: London and Glasgow
Group E: Bilbao and Dublin
Group F: Munich and Budapest
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
