How to view Virtual Replay

You need Shockwave plug-in version 10 or later to view Virtual Replay.

On the right is what you will see when you first successfully load Virtual Replay, a map of all the Euro 2004 tournament matches. Those matches highlighted in blue have already taken place, those greyed out haven't yet been played.

To replay any of the match incidents, first you need to choose a match by clicking on its highlighted link.

When you have chosen a match, the first incident will load. A progress bar will appear while it is loading. Those on slower modem connections may experience a wait of around 2 minutes before the incident fully loads.

How to Watch an Incident

To play back the incident, click on the 'Play' button. To stop and rewind, click on the 'Rewind' button. You can change camera angle or player perspective at any point during the playback of an incident. Simply click on your chosen angle in the navigation on the right, or select a player from one of the two team lists. You can then choose first or third person perspective for your chosen player.

You can also change the playback speed by choosing between the options above the play and rewind buttons.
