When England made it to the Euro 2021 final against Italy, there were still a few restrictions in place due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but no restrictions are in place this time around and different pubs have been taking on bookings and putting on promotions for the final.
At the Hogshead in Wolverhampton, the pub has been booking up tables ahead of the game, with people looking to go to the Hogshead encouraged to book as soon as possible to ensure they could get in.
