Brussels is out of the Euro 2020
UEFA picked London to replace Brussels as a host city for the 2020 European Championship, giving Wembley Stadium an additional four games on top of the semifinals and final.
Brussels has been dropped from the 13-nation hosting plan because of delays starting to build the Eurostadium project.
Reaction of the City of Brussels:
“The City of Brussels takes note of this decision. It nevertheless confirms its intention to have a modern national stadium AT the heart of the capital of Europe. Brussels city stands ready to take part in any initiative from the different competent authorities”.
