Maybe you're a big fan of Kylian Mbappé. Or maybe your 10-year-old has suddenly developed a fascination with soccer (or football across the pond), and her love of the sport has rubbed off on you. Whatever the case, if you've got your sights set on Euro 2024 – one of the world's biggest soccer tournaments, which this year takes place from June 14 to July 14 – here are a few things you can do to bring the action to your home.
Forget hockey and baseball cards—next month, soccer cards are the order of the day. This set of cards consists of four packs of 32 cards, ranging from rookies to top players. (If you're looking for Kevin De Bruyne or Cristiano Ronaldo cards, that's it.)
24 teams means there are a lot of games to follow. This poster lists the games in Eastern Standard Time (which is useful for games taking place in Germany!) and is available in both small and large sizes.
If you're in charge of hosting a viewing party for the final game on July 14, this European flag banner will set the tone for the big game and can be reused when the World Cup comes to North America (including Canada!) in 2026.
While you'll find the flags of the Netherlands and England hanging in my home, you can also choose to hang this German flag or the flag of the team of your choice. These flags are also a holdover for the World Cup in two years, as they are double stitched and resist UV fading.
If you're taking your kids to a match and the game is too long for them to watch – or they're waiting for a painful VAR decision – hand them this 86-page book, which contains mazes, more fancy colouring pages, brain teasers and more.
If your kids are inspired by watching Thomas Muller on the pitch – or maybe you want to get back on the field and play some soccer – set up these compact pop-up nets in the backyard for a mini game at halftime. The nets also come with a carrying case and steel rods to secure them to the ground.
If you think Harry Kane is this year's Golden Boot winner and you want to show off your love for him, this England national team 2024 home replica Nike Dri-FIT jersey, although a little expensive, can be a good souvenir of the tournament.
Or, if you're looking for something a little more affordable, this cotton t-shirt features the official tournament logo. It's also a Better Cotton t-shirt, a certified sustainable cotton brand.
Watching penalty shootouts can be nerve-wracking, and this pack of 12 squeezable balls is a handy way to give your guests a hand as they watch their team work their way through a round of penalties.
