UEFA bans the performance of the song Three Lions in the EURO 2020 final, between Italy and England
UEFA refused to perform the song Three Lions before the match. The song is famous for the refrain "Football's coming home". According to L'Equipe, which quotes one of the authors of the lyrics, Frank Skinner, "UEFA said it was too partisan and not fair to Italians."

Skinner even applied to UEFA, which was confirmed by the European forum, but it was too late for the matter to be changed, as the program for the closing ceremony had already been completed.

Why UEFA bans the song Three Lions on the stadium at the grand final EURO 2020, Italy - England
"No additional elements can be incorporated at this stage due to the very tight schedule and operational complexity before the kick-off," a UEFA spokesman said.

The EURO 2020 final, Italy - England, will be on Sunday, from 22:00 and can be watched in LIVE TEXT format on digisport.ro.

UEFA has banned the lighting of the Allianz Arena in rainbow colors
On June 23, the Germany-Hungary 2-2 match was preceded by a huge scandal. UEFA has banned the Germans from lighting the Allianz Arena in the colors of the rainbow, the symbol of the LGBT community, after the Hungarians vehemently challenged the initiative.

In response, several targets in Munich and the rest of Germany were illuminated last night in the colors of the rainbow. Among these objectives was the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

The Munich authorities wanted to illuminate the Bayern Munich stadium, the Allianz Arena, in the colors of the LGBT community, to promote the fight against discrimination. However, UEFA has banned the Germans from doing so on the grounds that it is a political gesture and has nothing to do with sport.

Hungary called UEFA's "good decision" to reject a proposal to lighten the stadium in Munich in the colors of the rainbow (specific to the LGBT community) at the EURO 2020 match between Germany and Hungary.

The Hungarian Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, should have been in the official rostrum at the Germany-Hungary match, but he canceled his visit at the last moment, given the tense situation between the two camps.
