AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Euro 2020 games in Amsterdam are expected to be played with at least 12,000 spectators in the stands, the Dutch football association (KNVB) said on Wednesday.

The Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam could be used at 25% of its capacity or more in June, depending on the state of the COVID-19 pandemic, the KNVB said in a joint statement with the Dutch government and the city of Amsterdam.
