England vs Finland Euro 2024 Tickets

England’s quest for a first-ever UEFA European Championship crown continues. At Euro 2020, Gareth Southgate’s side got incredibly close to ending their long-running wait for a title, only to (once again) lose on penalties when it mattered most, Italy ending the tournament as winners. Interest in UEFA European Championship tickets is huge, especially for the finals of the competition, and while you might elect to enter the ballot for tickets via UEFA’s ticketing portal, you should be aware of the very slim chances of success via this route.

The first release of tickets is blind, meaning that fans apply for tickets knowing only the destination and date of the game, not the two teams that will be playing, which is fairly absurd.

The second tranche is then released after the draw is made, and then even more fans join the scrum for tickets, making your already minimal chances even less likely to come up trumps.

Therefore, why not make use of our ticketing platform here at SeatPick? We offer a wide range of tickets for every England national team clash, including for this upcoming match with minnows Finland.

We work with hundreds of the most trusted ticket reseller sites and then aggregate what’s on offer on our platform. This gives our users an extensive range to choose from, and it’s a service that thousands of football fans make use of every single day.

England vs Finland UEFA Euros Tournament Record

England’s pursuit of a UEFA European Championship crown has been an arduous one, and as of 2023, it’s one that they continue to strive for. They first took part in the finals of the tournament in 1968 and finished third, albeit only four teams were involved in the climax of the competition.

Group stage exits came in 1980, 1988, and 1992, with just one win achieved over the course of those three tournaments.

Euro 1996 finally saw the Three Lions deliver on their obvious potential, and they did so in their own backyard as hosts. They secured memorable group stage wins over the Netherlands and Scotland and then defeated Spain in the Quarter-Finals to set up a Semi-Final clash with Germany.

Terry Venables watched his side take the lead after just three minutes at Wembley Stadium, with Alan Shearer bagging his fifth goal of the campaign. Stefan Kuntz leveled just 13 minutes later, and the game eventually went to penalties. After 11 spot kicks in a row, Gareth Southgate missed his to hand Germany the win.

England secured Quarter-Final finishes in 2004 and 2012, losing to Portugal and Italy, respectively. 2016 represented something of a new low as they were defeated by lowly Iceland in the Round of 16 in France.

Euro 2020 represented England’s best-ever run in the competition, with Southgate’s side doing wonderfully well to get to the final, where they met Italy, and just as they did against Germany, scored early on, this time through Manchester United full-back Luke Shaw.

Leonardo Bonucci scored to level the game, and the game went to penalties when Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Bukayo Saka all failed to convert theirs, handing the trophy to Italy.

Finland have only qualified for the UEFA European Championships on one occasion, and that came at Euro 2020, and their campaign started well with a 1-0 win over Denmark. They then suffered defeats to Russia and Belgium and, therefore, failed to force a way out of their group.

England vs Finland Head-to-Head

England and Finland have never previously met in UEFA European Championship action but have met in six FIFA World Cup qualifiers, with England winning four of those, the exceptions to this run being a 1-1 draw in Helsinki in 1985 and a goalless draw in 2000.
