As I’ve been reminded by many of my Aussie colleague’s this month, football did not come home again... however there's no argument to the spectacle that was UEFA EURO 2024, it was brimming with entertainment, controversy, and of course money! 👀 Lets dive into the key facts and finances behind one of Europe's biggest tournaments. 🏆 Euro Glory: La Roja Triumph in Berlin Despite high hopes, the youthful Three Lions side narrowly missed immortal status earlier this month. Instead, it was La Roja and their youngest ever scorer, Lamine Yamal, who clinched their record breaking fourth European Championship title on a memorable night in Berlin, denying another promising generation of English talent since '66. 🤑 Financial Rewards in International Football The European Championship is not just about glory. There’s significant financial reward. Interestingly, UEFA distributed a total of £278m for participating teams, the same level as in 2020. Rare in the modern game to see no change in prize money. ⚽ Player Remuneration: Pride Over Pay Players don’t receive a fixed salary for the Euros. Instead, they earn through: Per Diems: For days spent training and away from home. Bonuses: Based on performance. Each nation has its own payment structure, so there is no one-size-fits-all approach for compensating players in Europe's biggest tournament. #euros #football #soccer #sportsfinance #sportsbusiness

Following the recent Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) decision to permit the Russian Federation's under-17 team to resume competing in international competitions, the domestic #Estonian Football Association (EJL) has announced that Estonia's national teams will not play against Russia. "The decision to re-admit the Russian U-17 national teams to international competitions was made by the UEFA Executive Committee. The EJL and no one associated with the EJL was not aware of UEFA's intention in advance and was not involved in the decision-making process at any level. If we could have participated in the decision, the EJL would consist of the Russian U-17 national teams opposed to rejoining international football life," the football association said in a statement. The EJL issued a statement Wednesday saying that: "UEFA has cast its decision, but we oppose it, so cannot, and do not want, to implement the decision. The EJL's clear, unified and unequivocal position is that the Estonian national teams will not play against Russia," the football association announced. "UEFA has been aware of our position from the outset. The EJL is very dismayed if previous messages have led to any misunderstanding of our positions." "The EJL considers it important to repeat other positions expressed earlier. It is important to remain united, in Estonia, especially in a situation where people are fighting for the same end: For Estonia, in support of Ukraine, and against Russia's aggression. Supporting Ukraine naturally means that we are opposed Russia's war in Ukraine." "We hope with all our hearts that the war will culminate in Ukraine regaining control of all its territory, and as soon as possible, furthermore so that their football community can continue to do what it has been doing," the statement went on. "Since February 2022, both the EJL and the Estonian football community have organized several actions in support of Ukraine: Amassing more than €60,000, expressing support at several Estonian league, cup and national team games via public campaigns, exempted Ukrainian youth from the license fee required for participation in the Estonian championship, organized a charity match between FC Flora and Dynamo Kyiv met with a member of the Ukrainian parliament, hosted Ukrainian youth football camps in Estonia, etc. At the FIFA Congress last April, the EJL was one of the four confederations to vote against adding Russian to FIFA's list of official languages," the statement continued. "The EJL also contributes to Estonian national defense, specifically the Estonian Defense Forces has added EJL to the list of employers supporting the state's defenders last year, thus recognizing EJL's activities in supporting personnel participating in defense force exercises. A number of EJL employees also participated in the recent [large scale reservist] Exercise Ussisõnad." https://lnkd.in/dJk_ck4q

"B42 is a partner of UEFA." Sounds like an April Fool's joke. It felt like one, too. At the UEFA Innovation Hub, we were able to in the "Reimagine Football" initiative against 300 international start-ups. 🌎 That was in 2021. Every single word in this video is authentic and clear to the point. This video perfectly summarizes what we stood up for with B42. Why B42 exists. Where we want to go with B42. What added value we deliver for soccer. "A revolution that not only enhances the players love and dedication for the game. But a revolution that sets an exemplary standard of how inclusion, equality and fair play on every level can actually work." Nothing has changed in 2024. The cooperation partnership with UEFA has shown us in 2021: 👉 We are on the right track to improve amateur soccer around the world ❤️⚽. 2024 we are not available for the players. Now teams, clubs and academies can also train with B42 - all over the world. 🇺🇸🇦🇨🇨🇦🇩🇪🇲🇽🇦🇷🇧🇷🏴🇯🇵🇹🇷🇸🇯🇰🇷🇪🇸🇧🇶🇨🇿🇩🇰🇮🇹. We are looking forward to 2027. We're just getting started. Be fearless. Be focused.
