Yusaf Amin, 18, of Newham, east London, and Dalha Mohamad, 18, Waltham Forest, north-east London, have been charged with theft via postal requisition.

Their allegations relate to the theft of items from the stadium. The Metropolitan police said the two men intended to use the items to allow people to gain unauthorised access to see England’s clash with Italy.

They will both appear at Willesden Magistrates’ Court on July 30.

The Met said in a statement that after the match “officers began the painstaking process of reviewing hundreds of hours of CCTV and body-worn video content from Wembley Stadium and other key locations”.

It added: “The meticulous investigation will continue to identify further people of interest or indeed other offences which may have occurred.”
