UEFA Gives Green Light For Fans Return To Stadiums

UEFA Gives Green Light For Fans Return To Stadiums

UEFA has given the green light for fans to return to stadiums for next week’s international games as well as Champions League and Europa League matches.

Spectators can fill up to 30 percent of a stadium’s capacity subject to clearance being given by local authorities.

No away fans will be allowed to travel for the time being, with the coronavirus pandemic still causing havoc across the continent.

The decision follows a successful pilot at the UEFA Super Cup last month when up to 20,000 fans were allowed into the 68,000 capacity Puskas Arena in Budapest, Hungary.

A UEFA statement further clarified: "Both the admission of fans and the capacity limit are subject to decision of local authorities. UEFA matches cannot be played with spectators where local authorities do not allow it and the limit of 30% may be reached only where the limit set by local authorities is not lower, in which case such limit would apply.

"Social distancing will be mandatory for spectators and additional precautionary measures, such as the wearing of masks must be implemented in accordance with local regulations.

"The UEFA Super Cup demonstrated that it is possible for fans to attend football matches in the right circumstances by putting their health and safety first with comprehensive mitigating measures in place. The match also demonstrated the acceptance of fans for precautionary sanitary measures and their readiness to follow them and behave accordingly."
