As the final eight of this season’s UEFA Champions League prepare for the quarterfinals, there is a new set of rules made by the competition governing body to ensure safe conclusion of the tournament.
UEFA produced a 31-page document detailing everything from testing
procedure to player’s sleeping arrangements. In the document includes:
- Hotel lockdown for players and staff. They will remain in the team hotel other than to play matches and to train for the duration of the tournament, unless granted specific authorization.
- Zero swapping of shirts. Swapping shirts has long been a traditional post-match routine between players but UEFA has banned the exchange of jerseys for this tournament.
All games will be played in either Jose Alvalade Stadium (home of
Sporting Lisbon) or Estadio da Luz (home of S.L. Benfica).
