After almost one month for the Euro's beginning, today all the world will be waiting for knowing the winner of the the European tournament, when England face Italy at Wembley.

When is the Euro 2020 final and what time is kick-off?

The Euro 2020 final takes place at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, July 11. The match will kick off at 21:00 CLT.

How many fans will be at Wembley?

The British government had decided to allow 60,000 fans to attend the semi-finals, and final matches at Wembley, but it is not giving any further notice about the possibility of increasing the number.

The Italian FA has arranged for a maximum of 1,000 supporters to travel to London for the showpiece.

Fans will only be able to travel on organised trips on charter flights and all travellers will have to respect a "security bubble" - meaning tickets for those arriving from Italy will be in the same section of the stadium.

Who is the referee?

Bjorn Kuipers of the Netherlands will officiate the game.

Kuipers was the referee the last time England played Italy at a major tournament, with Roy Hodgson's side losing 2-1 at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Kuipers has been in charge of two group stage matches at Euro 2020 - Denmark vs Belgium and Slovakia vs Spain - as well as the quarter-final between Czech Republic and Denmark. He was also appointed as fourth official for the group stage match between England and Croatia.

The 48-year-old will be joined at Sunday's final by Dutch assistants Sander van Roekel and Erwin Zeinstra, while Carlos Del Cerro Grande (Spain) will be fourth official.

The video assistant referee (VAR) role has been assigned to Bastian Dankert (Germany).

What does the Euro 2020 winner get?

The champion will get 40 gold medals, while the runners-up will receive 40 silver medals as they will be distributed among players and staff.

Will there be a victory parade if England win?

"Downing Street has said it will set out any celebrations such as a victory parade for the England team "in due course," Skysports reported.

The Prime Minister's official spokesman said: "I don't want to pre-empt the outcome of Sunday's match. Clearly we want England to go all the way and win the final, and then we will set out our plans in due course.

"We will hopefully, when England go on to win, then go on to set out our plans."
