"It always helps when the home team is in the tournament for a long time," the 2014 World Cup-winning captain told AFP in a recent interview.Euro 2024 takes place three years after the previous tournament, which was postponed by a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Likewise, additional security measures were in place for the"Der Klassiker" match between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in March at the Allianz Arena, which hosts the opening match of the Euros.
