Can't believe I just caught this on video. Parachuted into the stadium, got caught in the spider cam and nearly crashed into the crowd. Hope he's ok!

Artificial pitches filled with toxic granulate are linked to leukemia and lymphoma🚨

The Netherlands has banned them from league play. Would you risk playing on them? 👀

12+ hours in an abandoned airport in Lybia after our plane was diverted whilst descending. Lybian government rescinded our approved landing in Benghazi with no reason. They’ve locked the airport gates and left us without phone connection, food or drink. All to play mind games.

Born in Berlin to an English and German parent. Grew up supporting the three lions. My dad warned me I'd suffer as an England fan. This is a dream come true in the perfect setting.

20 seconds in and the first flare is fired up in the Turkish block. Dutch support outsung so far.

[Max Merrill @Max__Merrill]

German police urged Türkiye fans to avoid making the wolf gesture that got Merih Demiral banned. Certainly fell on deaf ears in the Berlin Olympiastadion. Turkish supporters making a good amount of noise but Netherlands have the more impressive colour coordination.

Initially disappointed that our platform wasn't in the Portugal block but the Slovenia fans have stepped up! Cracking atmosphere in Frankfurt.

[Max Merrill @Max__Merrill]

I love these fans! Georgia lighting up Cologne and all of Euro 2024. Cheering every single tackle like a goal.

Georgia's flag is close enough to the England flag. Might just start supporting them as they've been a lot more fun that Southgate's starters at Euro 2024

[Max Merrill @Max__Merrill]

Best fan block at Euro 2024 so far... Portugal! Love their chant and they've got the feel of a proper league side "Fankurve" as we call it in Germany.
Impressed in Dortmund against Turkey but so did the Georgia fans...

[Max Merrill @Max__Merrill]

And right on cue, the Georgia fans have something to shout about! Gelsenkirchen has erupted!
