Meet the finalists
The home of FC Porto, the Estádio do Dragão (Dragon Stadium) is one of Portugal's most iconic stadiums, and staged the 2019 UEFA Nations League decider, when the tournament hosts defeated the Netherlands to take the inaugural title.
Built for UEFA EURO 2004, the arena opened in 2003 with a friendly against a Barcelona team featuring a 16-year-old debutant, Lionel Messi. The stadium replaced Porto's former ground, the Estádio das Antas.
The final was originally intended to take place at Istanbul's Atatürk Olympic Stadium. However, COVID-19 restrictions meant that on 13 May 2021, UEFA decided to change the venues.
