November 2019: The “Huuhkajat” or “Eagle-owls” write history - by qualifying for a major tournament for the first time. The Finnish Football Association was founded back in 1907. 113 years later, the men’s team will be competing at its first Euros. Kick off! spoke to current stars like Lukas Hradecky and Teemu Pukki, as well as Finnish football legends like Mikael Forssell and Petri Pasanen, to ask what this means to some of football's longest-suffering fans.
Finland's opponents in EURO 2021 (aka EURO 2020) Group B include Denmark, Belgium and Russia.
The first match will take place on June 13th in Copenhagen against Denmark.
