- Gareth Southgate surprised that fans will be in Puskas Arena
- Regulations allow U-14s to attend with one adult per 10 kids
Gareth Southgate says England are surprised that 36,000 spectators will be allowed inside the Puskas Arena in Budapest for Saturday’s match against Hungary, which is nominally being staged behind closed doors.
The Nations League fixture is one of five that Hungary are required to host under sanctions, two of them suspended, after repeated misconduct from their supporters. Uefa handed down a three-game stadium closure in June for discriminatory behaviour at Euro 2020, while Fifa added two more in September after racist abuse clouded England’s last visit in the World Cup qualifiers.
