U21 Euros final date and time, who England will play and ticket details

England's youngsters have continued their march towards continental glory by making it to the final of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship. Lee Carsley's players scraped through a tough group, finishing with fewer than half the points of front-runners Germany, but kicked on with a win over Spain in the quarter-finals and the Netherlands in the semis.

Now, with only one victory separating the Young Lions from the trophy, England's starlets are set to challenge for their fourth U21 Euros title and retain the crown they won two years ago. Here, Express Sport takes you through all the important details for those hoping to either attend or watch the match...

U21 Euros final date and time

England's date with destiny is pencilled in for Saturday 28 June, with the final scheduled to kick off at 8pm (BST), which equates to 9pm local time. The National Football Stadium, which has a capacity of 22,500, will host the showdown in the Slovakian capital of Bratislava.

UK fans who are unable to make the trip can watch the match for free on Channel 4, or via the Channel 4 website. UEFA.tv will also be broadcasting the match free of charge.

Who will England play?

England will play Germany after their thumping win over France on Wednesday night. The Germans topped England's group and saw off Italy in the quarter-finals, with their Euros squad including recognisable names such as the sought-after Nick Woltemade and Brighton youngster Brajan Gruda.

Both of those players were on the scoresheet against Les Bleus, with Woltemade adding to Nelson Weiper's opener inside a quarter of an hour, and Gruda putting the cherry on top of the cake in second-half stoppage time.
