Viewing from England
Two evening kickoffs out of three is the scheduling luxury that Group L delivers for English fans. The Croatia opener on June 17 is a rematch of the 2018 World Cup semifinal, and the 21:00 London kickoff means the entire nation can watch from the sofa, the pub, or a fan zone. Pubs across England will require no special opening time accommodations for that one. The 2021 Euros final and the 2018 World Cup run showed a country that genuinely stopped for these moments.
