Uefa has declined a request to light up the Allianz Arena in rainbow colors before Germany’s Euro 2020 match against Hungary tomorrow.

The Munich mayor made the request in protest against a new law in Hungary that bans the sharing of any content seen as promoting homosexuality and gender change to under-18s.

Uefa says it denied the request because of the political context surrounding the issue.

The Mayor describes Uefa’s decision as shameful.

Hungary faces Germany while Portugal will take on France.

Both these matches kick-off at 7am tomorrow.

You can watch the EURO 2020 live and exclusive on FBC Sports on the Walesi platform.
