Intro:

An preview to Wroclaw's Municipal stadium before the Euro 2012 championships which begin on Friday.

Script:

Situated near the Sleza river, the Municipal stadium was purpose built for the Euro 2012 championships which get underway on Friday.

The design for the ground was inspired by a Chinese lantern, and tournament officials will be hoping that both Russia and the Czech Republic will light up the arena when it hosts the pair for the opening Group A encounter. 

Wroclaw, noted for its Gothic architecture, is a thriving commercial centre built on 12 islands all connected by a web of 112 bridges. 

The new stadium, for which naming rights will be offered, is home to Slask Wroclaw.
