PARIS (Reuters) - Security failures exposed at France's football cup final over the weekend will be sorted out before the start of Euro 2016 contest in three weeks' time, the government said on Monday.

The month-long tournament opens across France on June 10 with a state of emergency still in force after Islamist militant attacks last November that killed 130 people in Paris and targeted multiple sites across the capital, including the Stade de France.
