Europa League and Champions League finals postponed by one month


The two continental competitions are in their eighth-finals, the final of the Champions League is scheduled for May 30 in Istanbul.

UEFA's decision to postpone the 2020 European Championship by one year was not the only significant result of discussions of the European football coronavirus crisis overnight.

It has been decided to postpone the Champions League and the Europa League indefinitely, while a UEFA working group rushes to propose a new match schedule that may allow the remaining rounds of the two competitions to run while the national leagues are finished.

The news comes on the same days as the announcement that the European Championships have been postponed for a full year and will now be played in June and July 2021.

All European national leagues have postponed their campaigns, with the Premier League holding a crisis meeting on Thursday to discuss the potential for further action that will go beyond the current statement that football could resume in England on April 3. More than 7,000 people have died from coronavirus - 55 of them are from the UK.

An announcement from UEFA declared: "All national and club team matches and competitions for women and men have been postponed until further announcement."
He further explained: "A working group has been set up with the contribution of the club and leagues representatives to observe the calendar solutions which would allow the current season to end and any other consequence of the decisions taken today."

One idea to shorten the Champions League and the Europa League would be to cut two-legged ties to knockout matches, and then possibly play short-term semi-finals and finals in one place - similar to a last-four format.

The Champions League final is to take place in Istanbul while the Europa League final takes place in Gdansk.

Andrea Agnelli said, the goal will now be to discover solutions to arrange the 2019/20 club season most practically and, further than, to guarantee that football, like society as a whole, regains its shape as quickly as possible and its natural rhythm.
