The COVID-19 pandemic at the beginning of 2020 hit the sports industry hard. Many leagues across the globe suspended their seasons and UEFA took the unprecedented step to postpone the scheduled 2020 European Football Championship to 2021. This move cost UEFA an estimated 300 million euros, whereas cancelling the event entirely would have cost the federation around 400 million euros.
