The Google doodle page explains this year is the first time ever that the 51 matches are being held in multiple cities across Europe. EURO 2020 will be held in 11 cities in 11 UEFA countries starting on June 11 (June 12 for India) and will go on till July 12. Originally, the tournament was scheduled for June 12 last year but had to be postponed due to the COVID 19 pandemic and the lockdowns imposed due to it. Even though the tournament is taking place in 2021, it will still be called UEFA EURO 2020.
