At 2 AM on July 15th (Vietnam time), England will play the EURO 2024 final against Spain. Three years ago, England also reached the final, even playing at home at Wembley, but still lost to Italy in the penalty shootout.
Therefore, in the upcoming match, the expectations and desire for victory from English fans for the Three Lions are even greater. If England succeeds, they will win the EURO championship for the first time, and a large number of fans in the UK are eagerly hoping to witness their team create this historic milestone at the Olympic Stadium.
According to the Daily Mail, each of the English and Spanish football federations was allocated 10,000 tickets to distribute to guests and their fans. For Spanish fans, the fact that their national team had won the EURO three times seemed to diminish their desire for tickets compared to English supporters.
Immediately after England defeated the Netherlands in the EURO 2024 semi-final, ticket resale websites saw a massive surge in demand from English fans. Direct flights to Berlin from English airports are now completely sold out. Those who missed out on plane tickets are finding ways to get to the final by car, train, ferry, etc. Naturally, hotel room prices in Berlin have skyrocketed, but this pales in comparison to the English people's love of football.
A Daily Mail survey shows that Google searches for convenient and quick ways to travel to Berlin have increased by 250% in the past day. In addition, even the cheapest Olympic stadium tickets are being resold for as much as £820.
According to predictions, if English fans successfully purchase tickets, they will turn the stands of the Olympic Stadium into a "sea of white shirts" (the traditional color of the England national team's kit). More specifically, the number of English fans could reach over 50,000, outnumbering the stadium's 71,000-seat capacity. If this becomes a reality, the England team will undoubtedly have a much greater motivation to win against Spain.
