In anticipation of the Euro 2024 final between England and Spain, major UK supermarkets, including Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Lidl, are adjusting their operating hours to allow staff to watch the match. Tesco will close its 1,800 Express stores in England at 7:30 PM, while Sainsbury's has announced similar plans, and Lidl will open an hour later on Monday. The final, taking place in Berlin, represents a historic opportunity for the England men's team to win their first major tournament since the 1966 World Cup. The changes have led to rescheduling at events like the Wireless Festival and a surge in ticket resales on platforms such as Twickets. Despite the adjustments, larger Tesco stores will close as per usual Sunday trading laws, and online orders will be honored. This decision, intended to support employee morale and national excitement, has been both celebrated and criticized by fans and consumers alike.
