BUDAPEST (Reuters) - The deafening roar at the Puskas Arena in Budapest will have been music to the ears of football fans around the world, as a full house of 67,000 fans watched Hungary take on Portugal in their European Championship opener on Tuesday.

Empty or only partly full stadiums have become the norm during the COVID-19 pandemic, often creating a sterile atmosphere for players and viewers alike.
