Last year, European football fans were left disappointed after UEFA was forced to cancel Euro 2020. The tournament is a big part of the football calendar, even though it only comes around every four years.
And it’s not just European fans. Anyone who appreciates the beautiful game looks forward to watching some of the world’s best footballers compete against each other to become champions of Europe.
But, the wait is nearly over as the Euro 2021 finally kicks off on June 11, 364 days after it was initially scheduled to begin. Read on to find out how fans will be catching all the action live from the comfort of their homes.
Must-Watch Games
The Euros always feature grudge matches and massive clashes and this year’s competition will be no different. With the schedule for the group stages already revealed, here are three matches that no fan should miss.

England vs. Croatia
The last time they met, Croatia knocked England out of the 2018 World Cup. England will want to make sure the Croatians don’t succeed in dashing its trophy hopes again. Playing at Wembley will give England the home advantage. But will this be enough to overcome Croatia?
Portugal vs. Germany
Portugal is the current Euro championship holder and is drawn against three-time winners, Germany. Christiano Ronaldo is always an exciting player to watch and at the age of 36, this could be his last chance to lift the trophy. Germany is a relatively young squad that will definitely give Ronaldo and his fellow teammates some trouble.
Finland vs. Denmark
This is the first time Finland has made it to a major men’s football tournament. Denmark failed to qualify for the 2016 competition but is back this year with Christian Erikson, arguably one of the best attacking midfielders in the world. Who will triumph in this clash of Nordic nations?
Where to Watch
Unlike previous years, 2021 sees the competition’s 51 games being held in 12 different countries. Although players will travel between venues, current travel restrictions mean it’s unlikely many fans will be in stadiums to cheer on their teams. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to catch all the live action.
