SOUNDBITE: (Polish) Daria Kulinska, National Sports Centre spokesperson: 
"The National Stadium in Warsaw is a very modern venue. It's the only stadium in Europe constructed like this. The stadium's facade refers to waving Polish white and red flag. One of its characteristic features is the roof. Beside the regular roof it also has moveable roof, so it can be transformed into hall. It's a multi-purpose venue. Apart from the pitch and stands, it has many square metres of space for conference rooms and offices. There are many elements that it can be used for besides the games." 

After the opening match on June 8th, Poland will play Russia four days later in the National Stadium, followed by Russia's Group A game with Greece on June 16th. 

A quarter-final will also take place on June 21st.
