England imetangazwa kuwa mwenyeji wa nusu fainali na fainali ya michuano ya Euro kwa mwaka 2020, Uwanja wa Wembley ndiyo utakaohusika.
Wembley Stadium will host the final and semi-finals of Euro 2020, European governing body Uefa has confirmed.
Glasgow's Hampden Park and Dublin's Aviva Stadium will host last 16 matches and three group games.
The English Football Association won unanimously after the German FA (DFB) withdrew just before the Uefa vote to focus on a bid to stage Euro 2024.
Cardiff missed out as one of the 13 venues that will host matches for the first pan-continental Euros.
England's FA chairman Greg Dyke, 67, said: "This bidding process was open to more than 50 Uefa countries so for Wembley to be ultimately recognised in this way is testament to a lot of hard work behind the scenes."
The FA is now expected to back the DFB's bid to host the European Championships outright in ten years' time.
The quarter-finals and three group matches will be held in Munich (Germany), Baku (Azerbaijan), Rome (Italy) and St Petersburg (Russia).
The other host cities that will hold three group games and a last 16 game are Copenhagen (Denmark), Bucharest (Romania), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Bilbao (Spain), Budapest (Hungary) and Brussels (Belgium).
Stockholm, Skopje, Jerusalem, Sofia and Minsk were the other cities not included in the 13.
The current multi-country format is the brainchild of Uefa president Michel Platini and is expected to be a one-off to mark the 60th anniversary of the European confederation.
