Only two months before the kickoff of Euro football at the Olimpico stadium in Rome… or not.

In an interview with

Repubblica

, the Italian Minister of Health considered that it was "premature" to decide whether or not the capital should host the opening match of the competition between Italy and Turkey.

Last week, the government paved the way for the presence of spectators in the stands of the same Olimpico stadium, supposed to host three group matches and then a quarter-final of the competition, meeting the demands of UEFA, which had requested to the twelve host cities of the Euro to unveil their public reception plan in their stadiums.
