EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Newbies going tonight - Fully vaccinated word of warning about NHS app

I note the NHS app has changed and there is now a different screen image with the QR which says "Valid in England" and you no longer enter "Euros".

I strongly advise taking a screenshot of your NHS COVID Pass. If you approach from Wembley Park tube along Olympic Way then you'll need this on the first check, which is just after co-op and across the road before you go up the steps.

Against Germany an hour before kick-off many had problems accessing the NHS app and there was a big queue forming as people failed to access. 

The glance I have received so far for every game means a screenshot is fine for that first check. The second check is shortly afterwards and you must have your Euro2020 Tickets App open displaying your ticket and bluetooth ON. The steward will use a pen and the screen will go green if successful. Never had to show ID yet, but if you have ticket issues you might need ID. 

Entering the stadium is even easier after those two first checks. Ticket on phone into the gate slot and then the usual body checks. Wear a mask going through security. So far once on the concourse only a very few people wear a mask. 

Entry slots are advice only, though you are unlikely to be allowed into the stadium earlier than the time slot on your ticket.

Hope that helps someone!

Now let's do this tonight!

    The app changed sometime between the Croatia and Scotland game. The app update included the "Event Trials" and "Travel" QR code but I have not been asked for this. I scroll down to my Covid Records (all the tests and the record of vaccination) and show them that. I've never had a problem, but I do normally open the app before arriving at the first check, to avoid 4g not-spots.

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: adaptability and focus will be key on the Manaus pitch

    I’ve played on some shocking pitches in my time – I remember playing for Chelsea in ‘the battle of Stamford Beach’ against Charlton back in 2003 and the condition of the surface can often play into your favour if you’re the home side. There may be a slight advantage for the South and Central American sides, but for England against Italy it is a level playing field – pardon the pun...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Italy’s tropical trials could lend a hand to England

    A few days ago I was on the Rio underground when someone came up to me to give me his World Cup predictions. He recognised me from my appearances on Brazilian TV, and he wanted to tell me that there were two teams that were going to spring a surprise in the World Cup: France, and England. Many in Brazil lost patience with England after South Africa 2010. The feeling over here before that tournament was that England...

    blogs: David Stone: Not even the mighty Amazon can hold us back

    I've been back in England for a few days now and had the chance to reflect on what was yet another cracking away trip with the Three Lions. The Honduras game, as many predicted, was a very tough affair with the referee offering England limited protection against some rather nasty tackles. The result, while disappointing, did not particularly matter to be honest. It was far more important that England had a good...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Protests vie with World Cup feelgood for centre stage in Brazil

    Last Sunday I commentated on the match between Italy and Brazilian club side Fluminense, staged in Volta Redonda, a hundred miles or so outside Rio. The match kicked off at 5.30pm in the afternoon. I arrived at the ground six hours earlier - and already there were plenty of supporters gathering. Many of them were Fluminense fans. Others had Italian affiliations. But lots had come (and at the equivalent of nearly £30...
