The European Championships are all set to commence on the 11th of June and will feature 24 teams who will battle it out for a month to earn European supremacy on 11th July. The 16th edition of the quadrennial tournament will however, not be like any other year as UEFA have not named a host nation for the entire tournament.

The EURO 2020 will be played across Europe in 11 countries, wherein 11 venues will be hosting the games of the competition this year. Although initially, 13 venues were named 2 had to be chalked off as Dublin and Bilbao failed to assure UEFA that crowds would be allowed into the games. We take a look at one of the 11 venues – The Johan Cryuff Arena in Netherlands.
