Back To Beer! British Fans Will Be Served German Beer Lager At Euro 2024
JAKARTA - British fans will enjoy a strong German beer lager for the two teams' match at Euro 2024 against Denmark on Thursday, June 20.
The restrictions were imposed for the opening match of the Three Lions team against Serbia, on Sunday, June 16 where only shandy was available to supporters in a 1-0 win over Serbia.
The rule was introduced out of concern for hoodiliganism, with the match marked as a 'high risk' by German police.
However, no such measures will take effect when Britain returns to play in Frankfurt in two days.
"Alcohol is expected to return to normal for this match, without restrictions on sales and the percentage of normal beer available, and you should be able to drink in the stands," the British fan embassies and fans say.
Restrictions on alcohol do not prevent hoodiliganism before the match starts on Sunday.
German police confirmed late Sunday that no British fans had been arrested after the fight, while seven Serbian hoodigan suspects were detained.
UEFA also launched an investigation into claims that English players were targeted by monkey sounds during Sunday's match at Veltins-Arena.
Away from the pitch, British fans may have to accept the option of low alcohol for their first game, but that hasn't stopped them from having fun over the weekend.
A German restaurant serves beer equivalent to two months in two days equivalent to 7,500 pints.
