The very first goal in the stadium was scored by French football legend Zinedine Zidane in a match against Spain. As PSG Paris decided to stay in the Parc de Princes, the stadium has no regular club tenant but only the country’s national football and rugby teams. The Stade de France is the only stadium worldwide that has hosted both a football and rugby World Cup final. The last as well as the first game of the UEFA Euro 2016 will be played at the Stade de France with France facing Romania on 10 June 2016.

All in all, there are 1,000 seats for spectators with a handicap and their accompanying persons, which can be accessed via ramps and elevators. Getting to the Stade de France is not a problem either, since the entire park deck 4 is made up of parking reserved for the handicapped. Fans, who want to see a game during the Euros, can usually pick between 4 different price categories with disabled fans always being entitled to the cheapest ticket, which is a category 4 ticket.
