      Euro 2024 to be wokest tournament yet with vegan food & unisex loos with floodlights switched off after final whistle

      by

      EURO 2024 is set to be the wokest tournament yet with vegan food, unisex toilets, gender-neutral searches – and floodlights switched off STRAIGHT after final whistles.UEFA is implementing the changes as part of a major “diversity and inclusion” drive and has outlined its moves in a 36-page edict.The 2024 EURO is set to be the wokest tournament yetCredit: AFPFans will be allowed to pick who searches them with the new gender-neutral security searchesCredit: RexThe tournament will also offer vegan food options, which could include vegan kebabsCredit: GettyCrowds will also have access to gender-neutral loosCredit: AlamyTournament organisers have demanded all stadiums in Germany have unisex toilets and offer up “healthy” vegan food – despite being in meat-mad Germany.Gender-neutral security means fans will be allowed to pick who searches them.In other major moves, floodlights will be used sparingly outside game action – and staff at stadia will even have their electricity consumption limited.England fan Danny Moss, 38, of Nottingham, is heading to Germany on Saturday and has tickets for the group stages.More on Euro 2024 He said: “I suppose this is football in 2024 for you. It will be a very different feel to previous tournaments, that’s for sure.”I actually don’t mind vegan food, but I hope the usual burgers and pies will be on offer too, as well as some German sausage, which I’m really looking forward to trying at the games.”As for picking who searches you – can you imagine that at some of the tougher grounds in England? “The same goes for gender-neutral toilets. It is hard to picture happening back home, but I guess this is what they call progress, and they will come in one day.”It all sounds very ‘woke’, and I’m not quite sure how England fans cope with it all to be honest. But we like to have a laugh and I’m sure everyone will just take it in their stride.””Reporting points” will be set up for spectators to record incidents of discrimination and staff working at Euro 2024 must “advocate diversity and inclusion”.Bill Leckie and Robert Grieve dissect last night’s 5-1 defeat to GermanyFloodlights will be switched off straight after the final whistlesCredit: AFPCrowds will be monitored closely under widespread CCTV, AI and plain-clothed officersCredit: GettyUefa’s Euro 2024 Environmental, Social and Governance Strategy states: “Environmental aspects are one of the core priorities for the organisation of the event.”As an organiser, we are aware that the organisation of such a major event, gathering football stakeholders and fans from all over the world, involves a significant footprint.”We are therefore determined to be part of the solution to reduce as much as possible our impacts on the environment.”A Uefa spokesman said: “Gender-neutral entrances represent one dedicated channel at the stadium entrance, where ticket holders can decide if the security check is performed by a male or female steward and no questions will be asked.“Male and female stewards voluntarily agreed to search people of any sex or gender identity.“Gender neutral public toilets can be used by people of any sex or gender identity.”Germany will secure the opening Euros game with a robust ring of steel made up of thousands of armed cops to shield against potential attacks.Security expert Will Geddes, who has worked with Premier League clubs, told The Sun 22,000 cops will be dispatched for today’s match alone.The UEFA Euro 2024 championship presents a “wide spectrum of potential risks and issues” amid a “very high level of risk” from ISIS, he warned.Will explained that the country’s special forces, intelligence services and armed police will be called up to help prepare for and defend against any possible attacks.Crowds will be monitored closely under widespread CCTV, AI, the watchful eye of “super spotters” and plain-clothed officers, he said.Will, who leads a team of security experts at International Corporation Protection (ICP), closely monitors ISIS chatter.Working with analysts who have experience in military, intelligence and law enforcement, his team have seen ISIS make “very specific references to Germany”.The prolific death cult has hurled out repeated threats against events like the Euros, Champions League and Paris Olympics in recent months.Will explained that the mammoth security op will range from snipers spread around the stadium to “super spotters” hidden in amongst the public.”There’s going to be a number of different layers of security”, he said.”You have some 22,000 federal police that will be assigned particularly to the games… including hostile behaviour detection personnel.”These are specialists looking for those indicators for individuals that may have malintent.”Scotland crumbled before a blistering display from Germany as Steve Clarke’s 10-man team lost badly in Munich to start Euro 2024.After barely ten minutes, Florian Wirtz waltzed on to the ball to steer in the first goal, setting the tone in an electrifying Allianz Arena.Nine minutes later, Jamal Musiala’s fierce strike nearly tore through Angus Gunn’s net and the hearts of the startled Scots behind the goal.And with Ryan Porteous’ red card, Kai Havertz scored the third goal from the spot just before the half ended, leaving Scotland with the highest mountains to climb.After Antonio Rudiger’s own goal deflected late in the game, Germany’s fourth goal was scored by replacement Niclas Fullkrug, who struck high into the goal.READ MORE SUN STORIESThe suffering Scotland supporters were ecstatic at the strike, but as the game approached injury time, Emre Can silenced them.That made it certain that this would be the largest victory in a Euros opening game.’Acute’ terrorist threat across Europe
      By Jessica Baker, Foreign News Reporter
      THE threat of terrorism to the security of Europe is “acute”, the EU’s law enforcement agency has warned.
      Europol said the top concern of EU countries is “jihadist terrorism” and foreign terrorist fighters who travel from conflict zones.
      Some fear the terror group ISIS could be looking to leverage conflict in the Middle East to launch a fresh of attacks across Europe.
      Ten jihadist attacks have been foiled by cops in Europe in the past 12 months alone, according to Dutch intelligence agency AIVD.
      The agency claimed attacks planned and intercepted included stabbing rampages at major events and assaults on specific groups and venues.
      Israel’s spy agency meanwhile alleged Iranian terror cells are plotting attacks across the continent ahead of the Paris Olympics.
      The Olympics chief has promised a ring of steel at the Games’ opening ceremony and insisted “security is the priority” to ensure the safety of an expected 15 million fans and more than 10,000 athletes.

      Marsh has teamed up with Deliveroo to offer fans an at-home dining experience on England match daysCredit: DeliverooKyle Walker and Luke Shaw are two of his clients from the Three Lions campCredit: Richard Pelham / The SunMichelin star trained Jonny Marsh cooks for a host of football stars – including several members of Gareth Southgate’s squad in Germany.His clientele includes Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne, while his latest one is Manchester United ace Rasmus Hojlund.England’s own Jordan Pickford, Kyle Walker and Luke Shaw are just some of Southgate’s men who hire him – and now he has lifted the lid on what it’s like cooking for our Euro-chasing heroes.He told Sun Sport: “Luke Shaw is a big one for me and a big part of my career so far but I’ve cooked for a lot of players in that squad.READ MORE ON FOOTBALL“In the last Euros, it was the game that Bukayo Saka didn’t start, there was a game that I’d cooked for every player on the pitch bar Harry Kane. That’s a pretty cool little fact.“But for me personally, whether it’s meal preps, daily cooking or a one-off event, I’ve cooked for pretty much everybody.”Marsh has now teamed up with Deliveroo to launch a competition for fans, with entry now open via participating restaurants, to win him as a private chef, in their very own home, to cook them a three-course menu during an England group game.And the kitchen whizz, who says a spaghetti bolognese is “a go-to pre-match pasta for sure” for his clients, could you up one of their favourite cheat meals.Most read in Euro 2024BEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSMarsh said: “Everybody is different but I would say the most common is burger – that’s quite a big one.“And, do you know what, since coming back from Christmas and doing my Proper Pies series, pies have become very, very popular.The Sun’s Tom Barclay gives live update from England training and John Stones MISSES session through illness“Hojlund loves a meat pie, Aaron loves the chicken, leek and bacon pie.“There’s a load of variations on pies, which is great because we can always do something but everyone loves a curry pie.“They can take a while as you’re cooking the curry down so that the meat is tender and the pastry is like a hot water pastry so it becomes very, very crisp, which is why pies can kind of stand on their own rather than just have a pastry top.“The water pastry, you’re melting the water, butter and lard together until it’s hot and then pouring it into the flower.“And you can’t roll the dough out while the pastry is hot – you have to cool it down – so that will take a few hours. “All in all, it might take them five minutes to eat but eight or nine hours to make fully.”Jonny’s Beef Vindaloo PieA winning combination of two of English football’s most loved foods, the hot curry and the humble pie…
      INGREDIENTSDough
      • 720g flour • 240g water • 6tbsp butter • 6tbsp lard • Pinch of salt
      Filling
      • 800g beef (diced)
      Curry Paste
      • 2 tsp coriander seeds • 6tbsp chilli powder • 3 tsp cumin seed • 4 cloves • 4 cardamom pods (green) • 2 tsp cinnamon powder • 1/2 tsp black peppercorns • 2 tbsp fresh ginger, roughly chopped • 10 garlic cloves (yes, 10!) • 1 tsp brown sugar • 1 tsp fenugreek seeds • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder • 230g cups water
      Curry Sauce
      • 50g unsalted butter • 1 onion, finely chopped (white) • 2 tsp ginger, finely grated • 4 garlic cloves, finely minced • 2 tbsp tomato paste • 500ml beef stock
      METHOD
      Dough
      1. Add your water, butter and lard to a pan and bring to a boil.
      2. Mix your flour and salt.
      3. You can either use a wooden spoon and a bowl or a food mixer and slowly bring dough together by adding your water and butter mixture slowly to the flour.
      4. Then flour a plate and place the dough on the plate and leave in your fridge to cool down – will take around 2 hours.
      FILLING
      1. Toss beef in salt.
      2. Curry paste: Place the curry paste ingredients in a small food processor with the water. Blitz until smooth.
      3. Fry your beef dice until golden brown, once brown transfer to a bowl.
      4. Curry sauce: Melt ghee over medium-high. Cook onion, ginger and garlic until they become translucent – about 3 minutes.
      5. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
      6. Add your beef back to the pan and mix thoroughly, then add your curry paste and mix.
      7. Add beef stock. Slow cook and place lid on top, then cook for 2 hours or until beef is falling apart tender and the sauce has darkened in colour and thickened.
      8. When you have rolled out the dough, place in your non-stick mould and bake for 40 minutes at 175 degrees until golden brown, making sure you brush the pie lid with egg wash before cooking.
      ALLERGENS
      Pastry – Wheat, Milk
      Mash – Milk
      Filling – Although extremely rare, anaphylaxis has been reported with some spices. These reactions are consistent with true allergy. Some reactions can occur with oregano, thyme, coriander, caraway seed, cumin and cayenne pepper.

      He continued: “Players, in terms of cheat meals, it’s not like they are going to KFC and getting a bargain bucket and stuffing their faces full of chicken wings.“Their version of a cheat meal is a lot different to a normal person’s cheat meal.“So a cheat meal for them might be going out for a cheat meal but still eating quite healthy, so it’s all in perspective.“But they won’t be going down to McDonalds and getting 20 chicken nuggets.”Marsh will be watching on like the rest of the nation to see whether his England pals can cook up a storm on the pitch.He said: “I’ve never been asked to do an international tournament as England have their own chef.“They’ve had two or three chefs but had the one sole chef working for them for the last five or six years.“There was an opportunity a few years back if I wanted to apply for it but I’m pretty sure they filled it quickly.“It’s one of them, maybe one day I might be England chef.”Asked on why he had decided to team up with Deliveroo, Marsh said: “I think it’s because it gives people an idea of exactly what I can do on a day-to-day basis in terms of the players.EURO 2024 LIVE: LATEST UPDATES FROM THE TOURNAMENT“It also gives a bit of an insight into players’ cheat meals and that’s what the menu is based around.“So it’s a sort of day in the life and POV of what I get up to but also showing a bit of a fun side to the players and what they like to eat when they are not on strict diets.”The winner can be certain that he will hit the back of the net with whatever magic he cooks up for them – unlike his self-confessed biggest own goal with Man City legend Ilkay Gundogan.“When I very first started with Ilkay I made him like a smoked fish cake,” he added.“I really enjoyed it and made a sweet chilli sauce, it took hours to make and it was really nice. It just didn’t sit with him and he didn’t like it.“I was gutted but at least then I knew that smoked fish was a no-no for the rest of the five years that I was with him.”READ MORE SUN STORIESPrivate chef to pro footballers, Jonny Marsh, has teamed up with Deliveroo to offer fans the chance to eat like an England player, winning an at-home dining experience on match days on 20th and 25thJune.Order from participating restaurants from 14th-16th June, to find out more visit https://deliveroo.co.uk/more/news-articles/baller-bites.

      This Little and Large affair is likely to be messy and more mundane than memorable with lots of clinches and Usyk using mind over matter as his most potent weapon.
      Logically there is no way the Gypsy King should lose — that old adage about a good big-un always beating a good little-un was coined for good reason.
      If it was the Fury of three years ago when he KO’d Deontay Wilder in the last of their unforgettable trilogy then I believe Usyk — despite his masterful skills and boxing brain — would be facing a painful defeat.
      But there was evidence seven  months ago  when Fury was lucky to get a debateable points win after crude MMA novice Francis Ngannou had floored him, that his powers may be in decline.
      The young Fury would never have been caught by Ngannou’s left hook that sent him to the canvas.
      It will be no surprise if Fury uses his height and weight advantage to physically wear Usyk  out.
      But my gut feeling is Usyk is clever enough to keep out the way of Fury’s big punches and earn a close but decisive points victory.
      Talking to boxing people and fans this week I have the impression Fury is losing popularity — not helped by his father John’s headbutting antics — and not too many tears will be shed if he should lose.

I think I’ll get up to 240 and probably cut down so I’m like way faster.”But if I’m training for this camp – and camp hasn’t started – but if I’m training in this camp at 240 and then I cut down to 220 it’s basically like I had a 20lb weight vest on for the whole entire camp.”So my muscles are going to be so much stronger and that speed will come through.”READ MORE SUN STORIESPaul’s plan to weigh 240lb would be FOUR STONE heavier than the 13st 1lb he scaled before losing to Tommy Fury, 24, last year.Jake Paul and Mike Tyson facing offCredit: @jakepaul More

Oleksandr Usyk spotted working on trademark move in training… but here’s why it WON’T work against Tyson FuryThe heavyweight is fighting in the early hours of the morning in Saudi, so he gets to bed late and enjoys a lie in to accustom to the time difference. And despite weighing over 19 STONE, chef Lockhart revealed Fury is not “a big eater”. He said: “Tyson’s very steady. Whether it’s an intense day or a light day, he’ll wake up and be almost the exact same weight, no matter what. “He has a little bit more of the higher fats. Though, he’s not actually a big eater like a lot of people would think. “When I started working with him, I thought I would be cooking for a freaking army, but that’s not the case.” Fury is undefeated in the ring and fears no opponent – but his biggest fight at the dinner table comes against vegetables. He said: “With Tyson, he’s not a big fan of veg, so I cook a lot for long periods of time to mask the flavour. READ MORE SUN STORIES”I’ll do it with chicken broth or bone broth. Or you can do it in a rice for a long period of time, so you can’t really taste it and blend it in. “But as the camp progresses, obviously veg has got to go up to make sure they’re getting all their micronutrients.” Fury’s fight week diet
