Football fans have enjoyed 49 fixtures so far at Euro 2020 and England supporters will be hoping they can make it to the final against Italy on Sunday. Gareth Southgates men are yet to lose in the tournament and take on Denmark in tonights semi-final at Wembley in front of 60,000 fans. The two teams who reach the final of the competition, taking place at Wembley Sunday, July 11, will have played seven matches in total.

Should the match go to extra-time, a sixth substitution is allowed exclusively during that period. UEFA confirmed the measures back in March in order to help ease player workload following a gruelling domestic campaign which was impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. An official UEFA statement read: As the reasons for the five-substitutions rule remain valid against the background of national and international football calendars affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and given that the rule is already in place for the World Cup qualification matches that will run from March 2021 to March 2022, it was decided to extend the amendment to UEFA EURO 2020 in June/July 2021, the UEFA Nations League finals in October 2021 and the UEFA Nations League relegation play-outs in March 2022.

Almost all top-level football typically deploys three subs but that changed last season, including in the Champions League, where five were also used. In fact, the Premier League, was the only top division in Europe not to have allowed five substitutes for the 2020-21 season. Those players who feature in the Euro 2020 final dont have much time to rest with the majority of clubs back in pre-season training already ahead of the Premier League kicking off on August 14.
