Why there is no third-place play-off match
There will be no third-place play-off in Euro 2024 after UEFA scrapped it.
The third-place playoff is often considered the game no one wants to be a part of, with all players, coaches, and fans preferring to be at the final. Although winning does come with a bronze medal, there is not much else to gain.
This year’s losing semi-finalists will be spared the contest in Germany. UEFA initially abolished the third-place playoff after the 1980 tournament due to declining television ratings and attendance.
