Finalissima 2022 date: Italy v Argentina kick-off time, history and ticket info

The Finalissima, or 'Grand Final', sees the winners of the European Championship face off against the Copa America champions in a Super Cup-style match.

Italy claimed glory at Euro 2020 as they beat England on penalties in the final and will now return to Wembley for another showpiece match.

Argentina, meanwhile, edged past Brazil 1-0 to win the 2021 Copa America and Lionel Messi and co will head to London looking for more glory.

The Finalissima is a revamped version of the Artemio Franchi Cup which was last held in 1993.

Argentina played in that match too and beat Denmark on penalties at the Estadio Jose Maria Minella in Mar del Plata.

France won the inaugural Artemio Franchi Cup in 1985 as they claimed a 2-0 win over Uruguay in Paris.

Italy v Argentina will be held on Wednesday, June 1 at Wembley Stadium in London.

The match will kick-off at 7:45pm UK time.

It will be a one-off fixture played over 90 minutes. There will be no extra-time, so if it is level at the end of regulation time, it will go straight to penalties.
