Host selection
The National Stadium in Warsaw, Poland, was selected to host the match at the meeting of the UEFA Executive Committee in Limassol, Cyprus, on 26 September 2023.[7] The stadium was built for the UEFA Euro 2012 tournament in Poland and Ukraine, where it hosted three Group A matches, a quarter-final and a semi-final. It has since hosted the 2015 UEFA Europa League final, as well as being the usual venue for home matches of the Poland national football team. It has a UEFA capacity of 58,274 seats.[8]
