A look at Wikipedia shows 11/7/82 is one, that was the final in the 82 tournament, when the band were in Turin. Don't know if the match was on at the same time as the concert though.

The 1982 final took place later that evening. Jagger correctly predicted the score at the show in Turin (3-1 to Italy). At the second Turin show the following day, the Stones were introduced onstage by the Italian defender Claudio Gentile.

The Stones' first Wembley show in 1982 took place at the same time that Northern Ireland beat the host nation Spain in Valencia. England had played Kuwait earlier on the day. West Germany v England a few days later took place when the Stones were playing in Frankfurt.

A concert scheduled for Glasgow in June 1998 was rearranged to a date in August (a few months in advance) because it would have clashed with Scotland's World Cup game against Norway. The August show ended up being postponed to June 1999 anyway, when the Stones scrapped the UK tour for tax reasons.

Was there also a venue scheduled in June, 1998 in Glasgow in addition to the show scheduled in Edinburgh? The rescheduled show on June 4, 1999 was at Murrayfield in Edinburgh and Glasgow did not get a show in June, 1999.

4/4/90, crowd cheering loudly half way through Almost Hear You Sigh. People in the audience with hand held TVs and radios. Afterwards touts were selling tickets for the Friday and Saturday shows at half price because business had been so bad for them.

England played SPAIN on 5th July - the day of the 2nd Stones Cologne show.

As I mentioned above, the West German - England game took place when the Stones were playing in Frankfurt on 29 June (the 3 shows there were the only arena sized shows that tour)
