UEFA confirms Polish sites for Euro 2012

European football’s governing body UEFA on Wednesday confirmed four venues in Poland to stage games in the Euro 2012, but only accepted Kiev in co-hosts Ukraine.

Three other venues in Ukraine were given until November 30 to provide assurances they were capable of properly hosting games.

As expected the four Polish sites chosen by the UEFA Executive Board were Warsaw, Poznan, Wroclaw and Gdansk.

The three venues in Ukraine still to provide guarentees over their suitability are Lviv, Donetsk and Karkov.

Poland and Ukraine were suprisingly named as co-hosts for European football’s showcase tournament in April, 2007 but there have been growing organisational concerns, particularly surrounding Ukraine, since then.
