Plans put in place by UEFA, European football's governing body, were rocked by the Covid pandemic of 2020 which delayed the Euros by a year to 2021.
Stadium capacity limits used to reduce the spread of Covid have seen fewer fans in the grounds throughout the group stages than was initially planned for.

Hide AdHow many fans can attend England vs Germany?
Under government restrictions to limit the spread of Covid, grounds in England and Scotland have been limited in the number of fans allowed into the stadium to watch games.
Glasgow's Hampden Park has been permitted to allow entry to 12,000 spectators for each match - at 25% of the stadium's total capacity.
Whereas in England, Wembley Stadium was permitted to allow 22,500 spectators into the ground for each match - at the same 25% of its overall capacity.
Though the government delayed the last step of lockdown easing, which would have seen a return to full capacity crowds, Wembley has received special permission to increase its numbers.

It also means that Wembley will be able to welcome 60,000 fans through its gates for each semi-final tie and the final of Euro 2020 - at 75% of its overall capacity.
