Euro 2020 matches at Wembley will be exempt from lockdown rules and will host a minimum of 22,500 fans even if Freedom Day is delayed. Meanwhile an official claimed the 3,000-strong fan zone in Glasgow will be one of the safest places to watch the tournament. Up to 6,000 people a day, split into two sessions, will gather in Glasgow Green to watch matches on every day of the tournament. Edinburgh University Public health expert Professor Linda Bauld said the fan zone is 'not without risk', though Scottish Health Secretary Humza Yousaf said it is 'low risk'. Meanwhile, following a meeting with fan zone organisers, Mr Yousaf announced a review team had been created to continuously monitor safety at the event.
